Robocop 2014 Movie, Director Jose Padilha
I am really happy that the new film from the series “Robocop” which reboots the series from the beginning, is an exception to the rule that I have found that reboots usually don’t work out as well as their original movies. This fantastic action created by the director Jose …
Walk to Remember
“Just promise that you will never fall in love with me”. A famous line from the movie Walk to Remember which stars Mandy Moore and Shane West. This is a sad love story but I really like it. At first I thought its just another ordinary love story wherein …
The Garden (NR, 2006) movie
This movie has the feel of a low-budget thriller. And at first I was reluctant to sit through an entire viewing. But since someone actually referred the movie to me, I gave it a chance. I am glad that I did. While I found …
Movie: The Green Berets

Shutter (R, 2004) movie
I was under the impression that this film was very much like all the other PG-13 “Ringu” type films. In many ways it most certainly is. However, this film (which I believe takes place in Thailand) was quite suspenseful and intriguing. The movie takes off …
Noises Off movie
Noises Off
This is what I consider to be one of the best and one of my favorite comedies of all time. A Broadway play gone wrong. If you were sitting in a front row seat, you couldn’t help but to just die laughing. When it comes to stage plays …

Family Guy - Something Something Dark Side

Final Destination movie
There are very few thrillers out there that scare me, this is definitely one of them.
The makers of this movie did a great job coming up with an original concept that you just don’t see in Hollywood any more. What could be scarier than knowing Death is out to …
50 First Dates movie
Imagine what it would be like to wake up every day with your memory blank. You can’t remember what you did yesterday (or the day before, or the day before that). You can’t remember people you’ve met, either. Even your next door neighbors would have to introduce themselves to …
Jeepers Creepers 2, horror film
This one really delivered, I thought. The first Creeper movie was great, but any fans might remember the Creeper had wings and in the first one we never saw him fly. Set the stage for this second helping of mayhem. Most of the horror takes place on a …
Masters of Horror Series:Homecoming

Homecoming is a horror story from the Masters of Horror Series on the Channel Showtime which I really enjoy. Whats cool about the series is every story is totally different with all new characters as well as the surroundings. This story happens to be Horror/Political Satire. The plot is …
The Scret Window (movie)
I love Johnny Depp and I think that he is just a re3ally versitile actor. He can play all sorts of rolls and keep you involved with the movie. I also like Stephen King as an autor and the combination of a Stephen King novel and a …

Walk Don’t Run movie
One of the movies I always enjoy watching is Cary Grant’s last film, Walk Don’t Run, from 1966. Grant was such a wonderful talent. I really regret that he felt like his fans wouldn’t want to see him as a non-romantic lead in a movie. I …
The Babadook - Horror Movie (2014)
There are many people out there who’ve been let down by the slew of unimaginably terrible horror films that claim to be scary. Finally I’ve found a film that’s worth a watch. Packed with a thrilling unease, an emotional interaction between mother and son and a story that’s coherent enough …
Beauty and the Beast
Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is my all-time favorite animated movie. It is indeed a timeless cinema classic. I can’t count how many times I’ve watched this movie but I never get tired of watching it over and over again. It’s the story of a prince who was turned …
Cinderella Movie
Cinderella is easily one of my favorite Disney movies of all time and I’ve probably seen it 50 times over the years. I used to baby sit a little girl who absolutely had to watch the movie every night before she went to bed and even then I never …

Earth Girls are Easy (movie)
When watching the movie Earth Girls are Easy, you might be fooled into thinking you�re going to watch a hilarious movie. The reality is, outside of seeing Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans and Jeff Goldbloom in early roles, there really aren�t many redeeming qualities to this film. Unless of course …

Superior 71 Drive-in Theater

Shop Around the Corner (1940)
In 1940 Loew’s, a production company that ceased operation in the mid 1950s released the black and white feature “Shop Around the Corner” in English lasting 99 minutes. For some strange reason the movie was set in Budapest that somehow doesn’t quite work with Jimmy Stewards folksy, mid-western accent. …
Jackson Masters The Lovely Bones movie
I don’t think I’ve ever felt so uncomfortable and so gripped by a movie as I did in the first hour of Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones. Considering I pretty much knew what was going to happen, I’d say Mr. Jackson should get all the credit he deserves.
Truly a …

Dracula: Dead and Loving it
I’m a huge fan of Mel Brooks movies, so when I got a chance to see the film “Dracula Dead and Loving it” again, I had to take it.
As far as his movies are concerned, this isn’t going to rank as high as other films like Blazing Saddles or …
Harvey,1950 movie
“Harvey” is a charming story of Elwood P. Dowd (Jimmy Stewart), a 42 year old bachelor, a kind, pleasant man and a perfect gentleman who has a rather unusual best friend - a six feet tall white rabbit Harvey visible only to him (initially). Elwood’s numerous friends are fine …

“Let Me In” is another one of the movies that I watched recently. I remember seeing it advertising several times before my cable television went, but for some reason, I wasn’t very interested in seeing it. However, it was only after I read about it on someone’s blog where …
Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon movie
I recently went to the theaters to see the new Transformers movie: Dark of the Moon. I remember when I saw the first movie. I did not know if it would be cheesy and fall short in terms of story, because it seems like that could be an easy …
Hollywood Homicide (2003)
I watched Hollywood Homicide on DVD with a friend. When we were through, the following conversation took place:
Friend: “Harrison Ford’s been in a lot of good movies, but…”
Me: “…this wasn’t one of them.”
This is a cop/buddy movie, starring Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett. I really wanted to like this …
La La Land - (Romantic Musical Film) 2016
Tears in your eyes, laughter spewing out of you and songs you find humming at odd hours? You must have watched La La Land. I’m not a person who often enjoys musicals and yet La La Land surprised me. I was enthralled, drawn into the story and of course couldn’t …
Kung Fu Hustle movie
For me, finding a good comedy is kind of like walking through a mine field. I’m not guaranteed of getting across in finding a great, hilarious movie and I am more than likely to step on a mine and hit some very unfunny, poorly-written duds. That is why I …
The Rocketeer
When I was a teenager, i remember seeing the Rocketeer movie advertized. Though I wasn’t into that sort of stuff then, I was more busy trying to rebel from my parents and anything that resembled childhood, I was nonetheless intrigued about this film and wanted to see it. Though …
The Good Lie (drama film)
