I was fortunate enough to see the new movie the Hangover in the movie theatre while it was still in theaters. I saw it with my boyfriend and I must admit, it was the perfect date movie. It is perfect only if you are looking for a very light, …

It is about this young 16 year old girl that falls pregnant to this guy at school. She freaks out when she found out and instantly thought of aborting her …
Norbit movie
Norbit was advertised as a “family film”. At least that’s what i got from the commercials. Right from the beginning, the movie throws completely crude one liners. While I found them absolutely hillarious as an adult, i found it a little inappropriate for the children in …
Movie Truman
Truman with Jim Carrey and Ed Harris.
This was a different kind of movie that had me expecting the slapstick humor of which Jim Carrey built his career, but I was sadly disappointed.
There are few effective comedic actors in the industry and Carrey is one of them. …

A Night To Remember movie

Alvin And The Chipmunks
We recently rented the movie “Alvin And the Chipmunks,” and so far the four-year-old in my house has watched it 5 times! She loves it, and so does her 11-year-old brother! In fact, even I, who never particularly liked the cartoon version when I was a kid, am in …

Nothing movie
From 2004, Nothing is about two guys who think the world away to near nothingness. I will say off the top that the opening writing material that is on the screen brings on early chuckles. The writing proclaims that the movie is absolutely true. It’s an …

There is only one word to describe this movie and that is weird. I have never seen a movie as strange as this one before. I had thought it was supposed to be a comedy but I found nothing funny in it at all. I fail to see the …
I Could Never Be Your Woman
I watched I Could Never Be Your Woman and I think that Michelle Pfeiffer is a very good actress despite her age. She plays a woman with a daughter and this is actually a very nice movie, if you watch it and give it a chance.

The Shawshank Redemption
To say it bluntly, this is my second favorite movie of all time (#1 is Raiders of the Lost Ark if you’re curious) and absolutely deserving of its current top spot on IMDB’s top 250 movies of all time. What is so great about this movie is that …
Contagion Movie (2011)
After seeing the Contagion movie, the best word I have to describe is it disturbing. But for a moment movie this is not necessarily a bad thing. The most important thing for a movie is to make you feel and to make you care about what happens to the …
Sex And The City- The Movie (2008)
After all the long anticipation into the final story of the super sucessful show Sex And The City and all the years of talk into making the movie- the final result was more than disappointing.
The show Sex and the City was a real hit. It showed the life of real …
A Beginners Guide to Endings movie
I am reviewing the 2010 movie, A Beginners Guide to Endings, starring well known actors Scott Caan and Paulo Costanza. The movie is a comedy/drama and shows how people react in tight spots. Everything starts with an old man commiting suicide. He is ashamed of what he has done …
The Lovely Bones (movie)
Ever since I discovered what I really want to do, the director Peter Jackson has become one of my favourites mostly for his detailed work and the way he perceives things; and hence I generally go out of my way to see movies he is associated with in …
300 Movie
I suuuuuper love this movie! The concept, the visuals, the sounds, the costumes, the actors, the abs… Although I already knew what was going to happen to them, I still loved how they came to that grand finale. And even if Leonidas was supposedly killed by a rain of …

Lars and the Real Girl (PG-13, 2007) movie

Butterfly Effect (2004)

Everything was right about this film. From the acting to the inspiring music, the special effects of its day, to the era it was filmed in. All the components of filmmaking came together in a synchronized collaboration that perfectly made us believe that a man could fly. Nothing before …
Dedication Movie
In must admit that I really enjoy watching Mandy Moore’s movie; however “Dedication” failed to impress me. Even though the great actors, Diane Wiest and Tom Wilkinson give a lot to this movie, ultimately I found it a boring romantic comedy. It seems that I am not the only …
The Hunger Games (movie)
One of the films that I remember underestimating the most last year was the movie “The Hunger Games”. When I saw the trailer first, a part of me expected that it was going to be a lot like the Twilight franchise, which I hated, since I noticed at the …
Baby Mama (2008)
Director: Michael McCullers. Featuring Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Sigourney Weaver and Steve Martin.
It is a comedy that has its funny moments, although some serious truths are hidden behind it. It is a clear cut chick flick, romantic comedy designed for some light watching. It could have been a complete …
