Nicholas Cage
Nicholas Cage is my all time favorite movie star. The first time I realized this was when I watched The Rock filmed in 1996. His accent alone captures my attention. It is that slow Californian voice that sounds so cool to me. When I first …

Dead and Breakfast
I was looking for something to watch before bed last night. I wanted something along the horror movie line but also didn’t want something too scary because I didn’t want my wife having nightmares (really). After some thought, I ended up choosing the movie Dead and Breakfast.
The thing I …

Little Man Tate movie
To-date, I have watched Little Man Tate three times. It has such an amazing topic, the subject of raising and educating individuals who are little Mozarts, like the so-called Little Man Tate in the film, who I think has that eidetic memory. There is a very tasty …
Gilbert Grape
My wife is a Johnny Depp fan and has seen most of his films and the other night I watched one with her it was called whats eating Gilbert Grape.
The film was really good and sad in parts but I could not get over the acting by …
“Full Metal Jacket” (1987 film)
Obviously, a review of ANY Stanley Kubrick movie is going to have the usual raves (visually stunning, technically masterful!) and the usual criticisms (the acting can feel a little…robotic at times, and there’s generally a certain bleak, emotionally distant view of the human condition). Those definitely apply to Kubrick’s …
The Romantics Movie
Yay! Josh Duhamel is starring in a new movie! I have loved him ever since watching him as Leo in “All My Children”. Can’t wait until the movie, “The Romantics” is released as it seems as if it has been such a long time since his last movie was …
Third Harry Potter Movie
As a huge Harry Potter fan, I was very impatient for this movie, especially because Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book. I had heard there would be a new director so I was worried that it would not live up to my expectations. It …
The Boy (2016 Horror Movie)
The first time I heard about the movie “The Boy” was when I was search through the trailers for new movies. The second time was when I saw the trailer while in the theatre waiting for another movie to begin. The concept looked creepy, so I decided that I was …
Velvet Revolver live in houston DVD
I bought the Velvet Revolver dvd live in Houston at FYI and that band totally rocked that show which was filmed in 2004 in some large theater. The band seemed like they were really tight that night and had a great time jamming. I particularly enjoyed watching Slash play …
The Fisher King Movie
Wow The Fisher King is probably now one of my favorite movies and probably one of the best performance by Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams. The story is so deep and heartfelt is almost made me cry at the end. The story is about this radio show host who is …

Movie I am legend
This movie couldn’t have been any better. I loved it. I think will smith did an amazing job especially with him being the only actor in it. You would think that it would have got boring and lost my interest with only one actor and not a whole lot …

Gridiron Gang Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
I loved this movie because it showed that you can discipline with a heart. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson portrayed a great role model who cared about others. Despite the fact that these kids had major issues with the law and had been given up on, he decides to take …
ConAir (1997)
This movie, though with some violent scenes, for me, is one of my ‘feel good movies’ I can brag about having seen. The good guys in this movie, Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) and US Marshall Vince Larkin (John Cusack) did a very good job. I am also very …
Death Sentence (2007) Movie
Kevin Bacon stars in this movie with the interesting plot and weary execution. The film begins with a group of people sharing happy family moments. The audience gets to see how the boys grow up. And I suppose the montage seen through film and …
27 dresses (movie)
We went to the movies last night and saw an adorable film called the 27 Dresses.
This one starred Katherine Heigl and James Marsden, I believe these two fine young actors are going to be the next Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan duo. They mesh that well together.
Anyway …
El Cantante (Movie)
This movie starring Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony about a puerto rican singer and his downfalls WAS HORRIBLE!. I HATED IT! The story was told in such a bad way. I never got a chance to get attached or feel anything for the characters because things happen so …

After Innocence
How can a man survive twenty years in prison for a crime he can’t commit is hard to understand but how to move past wrongful imprisonment is even harder. After Innocence is the story of men who have been set free due to DNA evidence and what happens to …
Open Season
When I finally got around to watching the movie Open Season this past weekend, I figured it would be a lot like the other animated movies I’ve watched recently. I was right. But, it was still entertaining.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, movie

Kwaidan movie
Kwaidan is an episode film following four different horror stories. The director is Masaki Kobayashi, and here he gets to prove what he could do with color film. This might well be the most visually stunning piece of cinema I have ever experienced. Not only is the depth and …
Finding Dory (2016 Animated Film)
The fact that most sequels nowadays fail to grasp the success of their predecessors is just pure tragic. The world needs fresh ideas, or perhaps an innovation of original stories sequels are based to. But few filmmakers understood that, so instead of getting rave reviews from everyone, they are mostly …
Easy Rider
Easy Rider is a movie about riding. Simple as that. I suppose riders all over would be able to love the movie and relate to the journeys of Billy and Wyatt, acted by Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda respectively. Well, minus the dope at least. These 2 …
Confessions of a Shopaholic
I usually like a movie I could somehow relate into. However, “Confessions of a Shopaholic” is one of those movies that I liked but could not really much relate to myself. It is about a woman who has a passion for shopping, which I don’t.
Being into shopping entails …
The Ring movie
The Ring is one of the best scary movies to come out this decade. I think this movie is up there with the Exorcist. The US version is very well done and very creepy. I think what is so scary about the movie is that the whole time you …
Wimbledon (2004)
This movie is about tennis in all its glory. Nothing more, nothing less. They try to toss in a love story in it but that was dashed asunder on the rocks below as this movie failed to even grasp and hold you until the very end of the movie. …
