The second episode in the saga that is surrounded on the character named Jason Bourne, a government killer who has lost his memory and is following a trail of moldy bread crumbs to the source. At the end of the first movie, he managed to get away from his …
National Treasure: Book of Secrets
After three years from interpreting the role of Benjamin Franklin Gates, Nicholas Cage returns in this role with the sequel “National Treasure: Book of Secrets”. I believe that this role for Cage represents what Indiana Jones was and still is for Harrison Ford.
“National Treasure: Book of Secrets” has …
30 Days of Night
This is a good movie if you like horror movies and you don’t mind gory things. If you are a person that doesn’t like gory or cannot take it I don’t recommend it. It kept me interested, the acting was good, I wasn’t really bored at all. There were …
Captivity film
Elisha Cuthbert, Daniel Gillies
MA 15+ Strong violence, blood and gore.
I should have known that this film was going to turn my stomach. I’m not the blood and gore kind of girl but I am a Roland Joffe (director of the Killing Fields) fan.
First let me say that the rating …
Get Smart(2008)
This is a movie starring Steve Carell as Agent 86, Ann Hathaway as Agent 99, and Dwayne Johnson as Agent 23, it also has Masi Oka from HEROES!! I used to watch the television show when I was a little girl but have forgotten a lot about it. …
Alexander The Great movie
After a long while, I’m back here, just to write a short review about the film “Alexander” from Oliver Stone. The film is about Alexander the Great.
Many meaningfull historical event are forget, and I think that Alexander was not that mad man.
The photography is at the level of Oliver …
The Tale of Despereaux - (animation starring Matthew Broderick)
I love The Tale of Despereaux! I find it super cute, amazing and I love the voice-overs of Emma Watson as Princess Pea, and the main voice of Despereaux by Matthew Broderick. Other popular voice-over cast are also present and I truly love the storyline, but the movie …
The Departed movie
Whenever Martin Scorsese comes out with a new film, I can’t help but become excited, and The Departed did not disappoint. Scorsese brings his wonderful cinematic vision we have seen in such movies of his as Goodfellas and the Raging Bull. The filmaking is also excellent which …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 14
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 14 was a funny episode in its own way. It talks about falling in love at first sight. It would be hard to believe though that anyone would truly fall in love at first sight with a holodeck character though. However maybe in …
Lars and the Real Girl
I went on the Internet the other day seeking a list of the top 25 movies from the year 2007, and on that list was a movie that caught my eye entitled Lars and the Real Girl. I remembered vaguely seeing a preview for this movie, but really went …

Hostage negotiator Danny Roman is framed for the murder of his …
Wall-E
Pixar’s always done great work. Even with their already high bar, they raised it with Wall-E. Not only did they raise it, they did it with only half a script.
I kid you not, the first half of this film is practically dialogue free. When I heard …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 14
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 14 concludes the Greed Arc, which improves on the original so much it’s amazing. Greed flees from Izumi and Ed while Marta, Roa and Dolcetto escape with Martel inside of Alphonse. Führer Bradley shows up to go after Greed and secrets are revealed.
This …
Crank, Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor Movie
The film in the form of actual action it is my opinion after watching Crank, Jason Statham movies. How not? During the 88 minutes duration movie spectators have given the treat of action for the action scenes without stopping, sooner and actually pumping adrenalin. There is no pretense in …
Perry Mason: The Case of the Lethal Lesson movie
This edition of the Perry Mason TV movies introduces the character of Ken Malansky to the show. For the first set of movies, Barbara Hale’s son, William Katt, had played private eye Paul Drake Jr. Katt, however, was given the starring role in a drama, Top of …

Movie Plague Town (NR, 2008)
I really tried to like this movie. Usually when a film is made in a foreign country like Ireland, the acting is typically good. But this time, an American family decided to go trekking through Ireland in search of their ancestral roots. First of all, …
Rocketeer
I watched the movie Rocketeer some years ago, and I remember it being a pretty good movie. It’s about a guy who flies with a jet pack attached to his body. I think that the special effects and flying scenes in the film were very good, and very well …
Prince of Persia - The Sands Of Time
My husband and I went to see this movie , and we both enjoyed it. It is very fun and entertaining and will keep you guessing until the end. I have to admit I was thinking it was going to be more of a guy movie , but …
ROPE-Alfred Hitchcock
Over-hyped, just like some of the Godard or Spielberg movies, this film too is rather carried off by the star-value of the director than the content itself. The very concept that the director has tried to work in the film (it was an experimental venture by his …
Alice in Wonderland (2010) movie
Alice in Wonderland is the newest release on this old tale but it is a new twist on the story that we have all heard before. The man behind the magic this time is Tim Burton.
The story takes place when Allison is 19 returning to Wonderland, actually called …
The Knowing (2009 Film)
The 2009 film “The Knowing” starring Nicholas Cage and Rose Byrne, did not in any way, do Nicholas Cage any justice. For his talents, and the other movies he has so wonderfully acted in, this film was a real flop. The plot was a little suspenseful, I’ll give it …
The Hunt (2012)
As a fan of cinema entertainment I indulged in watching the movie called The hunt. I choose to watch this movie because of the actor Mads Mikkelsen was the lead Role. Besides that factor, I was drawn to the plot of the film. I must warn that my …
Annabelle (2014) - Spin-off of ‘The Conjuring’
For me, most horror movies that have been produced in the last decade have merely used rehashed cliches and the same formulas to create what often turns out to be a subpar movie. The story doesn’t flow often and cheap tactics are used to incite fear. ‘Annabelle’ is another one …
Movie The Prince and Me
“The Prince and Me” is the romantic movie that made the actress, Julia Stiles even more popular after her roles in important teen movies like “10 Things I Hate About You” and “Save the Last Dance”.
“The Prince and Me” is a cute movie about Paige (Stiles) and Edward, a …
Brigadoon MGM musical
Brigadoon is an MGM musical from 1954 that still delights to this day. It’s a quieter fare than most, but it has a genuine quality to it that lulls the viewer in. This movie is relevant to today, too, because we’re still in such a rat race, …
The Great Raid, John Dahl Movie

The Messangers
The messangers is the scariest movie I have seen in a really long time its about a girl who gets in some trouble where shes use to live and gets in a car crash with her little 3 year old brother which cause the little brother to stop talking …
Cats movie
The classic musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, originally based on a novel by T.S. Eliot, here transferred to the cinema.
I think it was a very colorful thing to look at, and some of the songs are unforgettable, but overall I think this felt more like a filmed musical stage …
Vantage Point
The new Pete Travis film, “Vantage Point” hit number one in it’s first week in theaters. The film is not great, but is worth checking out. The idea behind the film is creative, I give it that much. The film opens with a typical “the …

The 12 Men of Christmas movie
Kristin Chenowith stars in this 2009 holiday movie, The 12 Men of Christmas. Chenowith is a refreshing actress. She’s very petite with a petite, off-beat sounding voice. She’s a perky blonde who can both act and sing. When I heard about this new seasonal flick, …
Little Women
Little Women on DVD is not quite the same experience as reading the classic story. I love both versions though. The novel started in 1869, and there are just so much characters to view and enjoy with. The story revolves around a mother and 4 of …
Inception: A Film by Christopher Nolan (2010)
When somebody asked me what Inception was about after watching it, I said —“ —˜it’s like in a dream’. I gathered from my friends that the movie was creating a lot of buzz lately. So I went out to watch the film. The screenplay was a …
Death Race movie
I just watched this movie (Death Race) an hour ago. Before I watch this movie, I totally have no idea what are the plot and the main actor. It starts with cars racing, not nice sport cars but metal, modified cars with many functions which one car keeps shooting …
Movie Street kings
This was an excellent movie and I would recommend it to anyone. It has keanuu reeves and some other good actors in it. They are all LAPD, or cops in the movie. It’s hard to explain what the movie is about but I really liked it and so did …
The Wicker Man, Neil LaBute Movie
‘The Wicker Man’ is a remake of the 1973 movie titled the same and be appointed from the novel ‘Ritual’ works of Anthony Shaffer. Nicholas Cage (The Rock, the World Trade Center) provides the latest version of this once listed as one of the producers. He may feel this …
Mr. Woodcock
When I saw the previews for the movie Mr. Woodcock, I didn’t know what to expect. With Sean William Scott and Billy Bob Thornton, I figured it would be a lot of slapstick but not much substance. But, I have to admit, after watching it, I was impressed.
Scott plays …
Babel - Movie
I went to see Babel not knowing anything about it more than it took place in Morocco and it was “kind of like the movie Crash”. Pretty quickly you can see how the movie is like “Crash” in that there are 4 storylines, seemingly unrelated, that you know somehow …
Prom Night
I’m a huge fan of thrillers; at least those that can actually give me some chills. So, when I had an opportunity to watch the movie Prom Night, I jumped at the chance.
Overall, I found the movie to be much better than I expected it to be. But, there …
The Pride of Jesse Hallam movie
I honestly wasn’t expecting to enjoy The Pride of Jesse Hallam, a 1981 movie that I recently had the chance to see. I just didn’t think it would appeal to me. Plus, the star was Johnny Cash (playing the title role), and usually I don’t tend to …
Ghostrider
Nicholas Cage seems to make like ten movies a year. Okay, maybe not that many, but he definitely puts out like two per year. Three years ago he came out with Lord of War and The Weatherman back to back. I liked Lord of War but not so much …
Twilight the movie
I’ve seen this movie just this year when I bought this DVD. My friends advised me to watch the movie because it seemed that they were totally hooked and amazed to the story. Frankly, I am not a vampire fan and this is the first time that I watched …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This past weekend I went to see “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”. I have always loved the Indiana Jones movies, own the first three on DVD. I went into the theater expecting something spectacular and I was not disappointed. For being a two-hour movie, it …
Family Guy: Something, Something, Something Dark Side
Several months ago, we watched the Family Guy movie Blue Harvest and thought it was one of the funniest Star Wars spoofs ever made. So, when we found out about the sequel, Something, Something, Something Dark Side, I couldn’t wait to watch it and moved it to the top …

Ice Age -Movie One in the Trilogy
I watched this movie a long time ago and then again recently; I recall then thinking that it was childish -which I suppose is good because it’s mostly a kid’s movie but I had hoped it would entertain me too- and that I would not care so much …
