I am a great fan of the Terminator series, and I had been waiting for this film to release from a long time. Last night I went to theater to watch this movie.
Overall it is an enjoyable movie. The story is weak but there are other redeeming factors in …
The Cable Guy movie
This was a film that was a big disappointment for many when it came out, but has been revalued among certain people and is considered as the funniest film of the whole 1990s by some of my friends. The story is that of a cable guy played by Jim …

30 Days of Night Movie
Yesterday, I bought the movie ‘30 Days of Night’. I had wanted to see it since it came out in the theaters but hadn’t because I wasn’t sure it’d be worth it. So I decided I’d wait until it was out on DVD and buy it.
I like Josh Harnett. …
Red Box DVD Rental Kiosk
What initially began appearing inside Giant and Shoppers grocery marts, the “Red Box,” are now emerging in increasing numbers and outside convenient stores, such as the 7-Eleven in walking distance of my home. These tall, red-colored ATM-like DVD rental kiosks provide the customer with an inexpensive and convenient …

Live Free or Die Hard
WOW! It’s the only word I could find once I watched this new Die Hard movie for the fifth time. I couldn’t honestly believe how incredibly good it was. I thought Bruce WIllis was too old to pull off that officer McClane roll again. But, then again, people laughed …

Your Name (or Kimi No Nawa in Japanese) is a romantic anime film written and directed by Makoto Shinkai. The story centers on Taki, a teen boy living in Tokyo and Mitsuha, a teen girl who lives on a faraway countryside. At a very unknown reason, a peculiar event happens …
Queen Sized movie
I came home early today and my wife was watching the movie “Queen Sized” on TV. I had never heard of the movie and, since it was raining and there wasn’t much else to do, I sat down to watch it with her.
I missed the first half hour or …
American Graffitti movie
American Graffitti was all the rage when it came out, but it did little for me. In truth, I didn’t see it for a long time after the release, and it may have suffered from overkill. By that, I mean that there was so much publicity for …
Legend of the Red Dragon-Jet Li
I am an extreme fan of martial arts movies. When I saw this one had Jet Li as a main character, I just had to add it to my collection. He is one of the greatest martial artists in present day. The stunts and the imagery in this movie …
Watchmen (2009)
A surprising and good film, the Watchmen was an adequately well done action film. A bit too cerebral at times, but very well directed. Based on the famous comic (graphic novel) by Alan Moore. The movie did a good job of transferring most of the depth …
Unlawful Entry (1992)
Living in fear I your own home is one thing, but when the fear of the people who have been assigned to protect and serve also fall into the same category then that is definite need for worry and distress. An LA couple’s lives has been turned upside down …
David Spade
David Spade is a a very funny actor. You might have seen him in a show called Just Shoot Me. He was also the hit film Tommy Boy. David Spade has his own style of humor and this is what makes his one of a kind. He can make people …
The Proposal movie
I was looking forward to seeing The Proposal when it came out this week on DVD, mainly because I think Sandra Bullock is a comedic genius. She also produced this film, and in my opinion, she has a knack for making non-cheesy, seriously funny comedies that also work as …
40 days and 40 nights
This movie was entertaining but that is about it. If you are bored one night and enjoy movies like this then I would recommend it. This movie isn’t for everyone though. Josh Hartnett and Shannyn Sossamon play in it. Josh Hartnett plays Matt Sullivan who decides to vow to …
Norbit (2007)
Yet another movie where Eddie Murphy feels the need to play multiple roles. The question is, aren’t there any other actors aor actresses that could play the other roles that he plays or does he just love to see himself?
Norbit is one of the dumbest movies that I’ve seen …
Movie - “The Unborn”
A lot of horror movies, especially in recent years, just don’t live up to the hype: “The Unborn” is an exception.
Casey Beldon is being haunted - or possessed, she’s not sure which - by the spirit of her twin brother, who died in the womb. But is it really …
Bringing down the house
Bringing down the house is a fine comedy movie. This Steve Martin and Queen Latifah starred movie is I have watched this movie on DVD and it is a nice movie, at least one doesn’t get bored at any point of the movie. The performances of Queen Latifah and …
Meet the Parents
Meet the Parents was a great and very funny movie. I really liked this film and it made me laugh a lot. I think the best thing about the film is that Ben Stiller was in it. I never even knew who this guy was until I saw Meet the …
Dr. Strangelove (1964 Classic Film)
Quite frankly, I have no intention to watch other Stanley Kubrick (otherwise known as the greatest American filmmaker ever) films after being disappointed by 2001: A Space Odyssey. I watched that film after the release of Nolan’s Interstellar two years ago and I never got the correlation among the two. …

The Crow movie
The Dark Gothic film that claimed the life of Brandon Lee. One of my favorite movies of all time, as not everyday you see a corpse rising from the grave to right to wrongs done to him. Not a zombie type role either…but undead and kicking butt from corner …
Christmas in Wonderland
My very favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, stars in this holiday movie, “Christmas in Wonderland”. I just saw it for the first time when it aired on TV, and I have mixed feelings about it.
Patrick was great, as always. He’s heavy in the first 15 minutes of the …
Twilight Movie
I have heard so many outrageous things said about the Twilight movie, and from people who haven’t even watched it. They have said that Edward Cullen isn’t a real vampire, that he’s a wimpy vampire, that he’s a pretty boy, and pretty much any other ridiculous thing that one …
Everyone Says I Love You - (starring Drew Barrymore)
I didn’t know that this musical, Everyone Says I Love You was directed by Woody Allen until my friend highlighted it to me. I am not that big a fan for musicals, but at the same time, I don’t prevent from watching it altogether. I think that musical …
Amazon Unbox
Amazon Unbox is the top choice for watching movies online. THere is special software to download to watch films, but that doesn’t take very long and it does perform as a special folder for the movies and TV shows you have purchased or rented. If you buy a show …
Movie Talk to Me
Talk to Me is a lovely movie and I recommend for all to go and watch it. If you are late, go and rent a DVD or whatever means, but you have to WATCH IT. I recommend it 100% because I love watching this movie pretty much. …

The Invasion Movie
I think The Invasion is one of those movies that probably could have been pretty good, but ended up getting the raw end of the stick. The movie was supposed to come out a few years ago, but kept getting pushed back and pushed back. I remember reading a …
Horsemen of the Apocalypse film
This film is confusing. No, let me re-phrase - that makes it sound like I am not particularly bright, and the plot got way ahead of me and induced a migraine. Not that I claim to be super intelligent either. But anyway.
This film is confused. It’s a mess of …
The Prestige (movie)
The Prestige is one of the best and most entertaining movies I have seen in the year 2007. It was crafted so perfectly that I don’t think there would be a better movie about magic tricks. The Prestige was directed by the same guy who directed Batman Begins. He did …
Vampires: The Turning movie
There is a good reason behind why I find it hard to like many of John Carpenter’s movies. I find that most of them are mediocre with inferior acting, terrible makeup, a silly plot, and even sillier script and so on. Thus, like many of John Carpenter’s movies, “Vampires: …
VooDoo (Horror Movie)
If you ask me about my opinion of this movie. It is —“ “I just wasted 1 hour plus of my life! *Censored*! *Censored*! *Censored*!”
In fact, I did thought of naming this review “VooDoo - a movie to waste 1 hour plus of you life away”. But I guess, …
A Dead Calling
A Dead Calling is the kind of movie that I would only watch as a last resort, or because it was cheap. In my case it was a little of both. My local video rental place was clearing out some of their older movies, and I managed to grab …
Spiderman 2 Movie
I have always been a pretty big spiderman fan, so I was pretty exvited when they came out with the Spiderman movies. This movie is the secord of the two spriderman films taht are out now featuring the acting talents of Toby McGuire and Kirsten Dundst. I really like …
Heartbreak Kid DVD
Any move with Ben Stiller is bound to be funny and the Heartbreak Kid is no exception. And now you can bring it home on DVD and enjoy it whenever you want. But it is definitely an adult comedy, rated R, so if you can make sure the kids …

Avatar movie 2009
I saw the movie Avatar three times– twice in the theater in 3-D, and once at home in 2-D as a rental. I’d been looking forward to seeing it months before it ever came out. The big question always being: would it live up to all the hype? I …

Song of the Sea is an Irish animated film directed by Tomm Moore who previously directed the now famous Oscar nominated “The Secret of Kells”. And he’s got another winner with this film proving once again that he’s quickly becoming a big name in the animation industry.
Like his previous work, …
Silent Hill movie
I wasn’t sure if I would like Silent Hill after learning it was based on a video game, but, after watching it, I have to admit it was one of the scarier movies to come out in a while.
Radha Mitchell plays Rose, a mother who loses her daughter while …

Memoirs Of A Geisha (movie)
Memoirs Of A Geisha is one of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen. The scenery was stunning, even when Chiyo, our main character, is running through busy, dirty streets. The women in this movie were all lovely, from young girls to older matrons. I was told that I …
Movie: Revenge of the Nerds
I got the kids to bed a bit early last night and, since my wife was taking a shower, I decided to sit down for a few minutes and see if I could find a movie on TV.
I ended up coming across the film Revenge of the Nerds on …

The Village.
A couple years ago, my wife and I thought we would be smart and, rather than spending money renting movies, we would just buy a new movie every couple of weeks so it would be in our DVD collection.
That was until we bought the movie The Village.
This is one …
