“Mean Creek” (R, 2004) movie
I was really interested in seeing this film at first. It looked like there was a good deal of intrigue. And I liked the idea of Rory Culkin being in the film. This young man has quite a presence on camera, being at once introspective …
Movie Master and Commander
We watched Russel Crowe the other night in a movie that came out a few years ago called Master and Commander.
Russel Crowe is another actor that I find does an extremely good job when he portrays charactors and acts. In this movie takes place during the Napoleonic …
Coraline movie
My roommate was under the mistaken impression that this was a Tim Burton film. In actuality, Tim Burton had nothing to do with it, but you can see why he would be under that impression.
The movie is based off of a novel by Neil Gaiman, of “Sandman” fame. …
Aliens
Aliens is probably one of the movies that can scare me till this day. The monsters in this movie are pretty terrifying. I think that this movie may have been where they got the idea for the game Doom. Because this movie was very freaky. I think the music and …
The Day After Tomorrow
There have been many, many movies from Hollywood which have told us exactly how we’ll die off as a human race. None took so much meaning for the time as The Day After Tomorrow. It showed what effects the weather would have on our climate. We tend to think …
Up (Animated Movie by Pixar)
Up is a great animated movie by Pixar. I must say that there is a great content in this movie and that the old man and the little kid is really hilarious. It is not really that funny, but if you watch it closely and watch how the …
Never Been Kissed 1999 movie
Never Been Kissed, with Drew Barrymore, is, in a word, cute. The premise (shy girl gets to go back to high school and try again as part of a newspaper assignment) is fun and resonates with the part of me that knows a lot more than I did when …
Love Me or Leave Me movie
This picture, Love Me or Leave Me, is one of Doris Day’s most dramatic roles, and she soars in it. It’s a bit of a dark picture as the movie attempts to tell an account of singer Ruth Etting’s life. Etting was quite successful but also dealt …

Other People’s Money Movie

Movies with Danny DeVito in them always seem to draw my attention as I realy believe him to be the trump card that has me sold, when considering to go ahead and watch the movie or not.
With the recent Danny DeVito festival on late night television, featuring …
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a romantic comedy with an almost universal appeal, simply because it is, at it’s heart, a great movie. The plot isn’t meant to appeal solely to women, or even towards men, as one would expect from a Judd Apatow Production. Instead, it is a movie …
The New World Movie
Last night I was able to walk down to the local movie theatre and view “The New World.” This was a film I was pretty excited about to see because it was rarely released to local theatres, plus Christian Bale was in it.
Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …

Happy Feet movie
As a father with three children, ages 9 down to 3, I went into this film with some trepidation. Mind you, I like children’s fare, but this one just didn’t have the appeal for me.
Boy, was I wrong.
The tap-dancing penguin in the movie is just adorable. As much …

Cloverfield
Many movies claim to have you on the edge of your seat, but I have never seen a movie do that literally… until I watched Cloverfield. This monster flick redefines the genre and brings viewers a first person look into what an apocalyptic experience is like. The movie was …
The Hottie & The Nottie
Considering it had Paris Hilton in the starring role and the fact it came straight to DVD, I had a lot of doubts about the film The Hottie & The Nottie.
After all, this is 2008, you would think a movie that focuses just on a woman’s looks rather than …

Poltergeist
When I was fourteen, this movie scared me. And I felt then, and now, that I don’t scare easily. Very few movies even give me the chills. But Poltergeist scared me, and at the same time thrilled me. It became somewhat of both an embarrassment and a disappointment that …
Dead poet society movie

The Avengers (2012 movie)
The Avengers was, to put it lightly, absolutely epic. I’ve never been that interested in superhero movies, games, or comics, but this action film was incredible. The way the action blended perfectly with the story line meant that I was captivated for the entire time, even though it’s a …
DVD: This Old Cub

The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen movie
Tex Ritter starred as Tex Martin in The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen, a typical singing western for its generation. In this movie, he uses a guitar quite a bit. This movie does indeed have several songs in it.
The drama begins when Tex and his current sidekick …
Evil Dead (2013) Movie
Remakes of classic horror movies don’t have the best track record. Yet, we live in an age where they are common place due to…I’m not sure.

Mystery Science Theater 3000: Boggy Creek II
If you like these MST3000’s You will love this one. This movie Boggy Creek II was sooooo lame that it had to be made fun of. And who better to do it but the beloved members of MST3000. This show made no since and they pointed out how senseless …
Movie: “Stardust” (2007)
“Stardust” is a sweeping family fantasy based on a book by Neil Gaiman and narrated by Sir Ian McKellen. Although the plot was a bit confusing in places, I love this beautiful film; it’s one of those movies you can watch over and over and still enjoy.
