I didn’t know that Antonio Banderas can dance and ballroom dancing for that matter. When I saw his movie, Take the Lead, I was pretty impressed with the talent he has showed off in the movie. He has a great body and it looks so right with those sexy …

About a week ago, I saw an advertisement for a SyFy original movie called Stonehenge Apocalypse that looked somewhat interesting so I set my DVR to record it. My wife and I got around to watching it yesterday afternoon and, while OK, it wasn’t nearly as good as expected.
OK, …

I really enjoyed watching the film 30 Days of Night and was excited when I heard that a sequel would soon be coming to the big screen. To what potential readers may find dismaying, I have to say that that 30 Days of Night: Dark Days was unimpressive.
I did …

Usually, even if it is poorly made, a movie about a serial killer will have at least a couple of redeeming qualities to it.
When it comes to the movie Summer of Sam, this is definitely not the case.
The movie might have been good if they focused on the actual …

This entry, we take a look at a recent film from the famed Hammer studios, which was recently involved in the post-Potter Daniel Radcliffe film, The Woman in Black. Their new logo is akin to the logo for Marvel Studios, utilizing their film posters much like Marvel uses …

Apocalypto is one of the best jungle chase movies I have ever seen. It has humor, suspense, and non-stop action. It is one of my favorite movies. I have seen it at least ten times. The movie starts with a group of natives hunting a taper. A taper is …

This must be one of the filthiest comedy flicks out there - if I may call it comedy; make it one bit dirtier, and you’d be talking about porn. I am shocked to see some established reviewers praise this trash as not only funny but “sweet” and even “innocent.” …

This is one of my favorite movies. The movie is about a less-than-beautiful, frumpy woman looking for love.
Bridget Jones (Renee Zellweger) is a secretary for a publishing company who is in love with her boss (Hugh Grant) who shamelessly flirts with her (and her skirt!). After the pair have …

Most often than not, small films like this one gets buried in a year full of blockbusters. Which is probably the reason why I was not able to watch this the year it was released. Admittedly, 3 years ago, I was not too much of a fan of smaller movies. …

With a movie title like this, you have a pretty good idea of what sort of movie you’re in for. This isn’t going to be a good movie in the traditional sense, although that doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t be an entertaining one.
Odd as it may sound, it …

I fell in love with Robot Chicken the first instant I saw it. If you’ve never seen the show, here it is in a nutshell: Action figures combined with claymation used in stop-motion animation to make fun of anything and everything pop culture, most commonly the pop-culture of …

This is the second and final Ace Ventura movie, in the movie. The film opens with a parody of the film Cliffhanger, where Ace is holding on to a raccoon’s paw, and his glove is slipping, he fails to save the animal and this drives Ace to become a …

I just finished watching this movie at home and I wasn’t quite happy with the flow of the story or plot. Although the lead character Johnny Depp did a fantastic job as the barber who turned out to be a serial killer in Fleet street. The story …

Trocadero is one of the more entertaining movies that I’ve watched recently, and I’ve been watching a ton of motion pictures of late. From 1944, the movie stars Charles Calvert as Tony Rocadero. He was a foreigner who adopted two children he loved dearly, Judy and Johnny. …

I thought that “The Wild Thornberrys” surpassed my expectations of what it would be like. I knew that it would do well in theatres as the series seemed to be quite popular amongst many children at the time, but I thought that if I watched it I might find …

There are some actors and actresses that I avoid when deciding what movies to go to the theater and watch or what movies to rent. I usually avoid anything with Jude Law, Jack Black, and Cameron Diaz. So imagine my surprise when I actually rented a movie staring all …

The sequel to the first movie and a continuing saga, this movie tells the story of the continued struggle of co-existence between humans and mutant kind. Similar to the happenings of the comic book and the TV series, this movie jumps from scene to scene in an attempt to …

Edward Scissorhands is a very heart-wrenching story that makes me cry buckets each time I watched. I just can’t get enough of Johnny Depp in this story and this is one of the best movies by him ever that I dubbed him one of the best actors. He totally deserves …

“Cosplay Complex,” an anime series about girls who compete in cosplay (dressing up), is raunchy is every sense of the word. Even though
it’s classified solely as comedy anime, it did not make me laugh at loud once. This extreme lack of humor is probably why there are only three
episodes. …

Children of Men is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time. When I first read the plot of the movie it didn’t seem like a solid movie, but after watching it for just 2 minutes I have changed my mind. This is what a good action should …

When my wife picked out the movie Fingerprints off our Netflix instant watch queue last night, I honestly wasn’t expecting a whole lot from the movie. After all, most of the so-called horror films out there are nothing more than soft-core porn in disguise or think extra blood and …

A film I consider to be one of the best films ever made is “The Godfather,” made in 1972 and directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
As close as any film will ever come to being a true masterpiece, “The Godfather” set a new standard of excellence that has only been …

It seems whenever an idea for a movie has some success, there are a bunch of other movies ready to copy that success by keeping roughly the same plot, just a few minor changes.
Fool’s Gold is a good example of this. While not a terrible movie, the idea of …

I don’t know why I thought this, but I could have sworn the 1932 movie The Mummy was a horror film. I mean, it is advertised that way and stars Boris Karloff.
However, I tried to watch this movie yesterday with my daughter (she likes horror films but I try …

The Forgotten is a very weird and kind of spooky movie. It’s about alien abduction and it’s also very interesting how people were sucked into the sky in this movie. It was very strange and also scary at the same time. I think that the The Forgotten has a pretty …

I could still remember when I saw the very first Scary Movie sequel. I watched it on VCD, and the whole time while watching this comedy movie made me laugh out loud. The jokes were very funny and the spoof that they made was totally funny as …

I was not too fond of the fifth movie in the Harry Potter series that I was not really looking forward to the release of the movie version of the sixth installment, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. But being a true-blue Harry Potter fan, I eventually saw the …

Imagine a Lifetime Television Original with a bunch of four letter words and you get North Country.
North Country tells the (cliched) true tale of a woman who brought a class action sexual harrassement suit against the bad dialogue spewing management of a coal mine.
Movies like this have been a …

The only positive thing that I could say about this movie is that it is consistent, that is, similar to the book where it was based from, it consistently disappoints. About a year ago, I remember my curiosity when everyone seemed very interested, so much into this new series …

My wife and I never could get into the original Halloween movies and prefer the recent re-makes. But, there was nothing good on TV yesterday afternoon and we had a chance to watch Halloween Resurrection so we did.
I can understand why they eventually just gave up on the original …

As someone who loves to go to the movies, I am so disappointed in our local movie theater - Dickinson Eastglen 16. Over the past several years, the facility has fallen into a state of disrepair. Several of the faucets in the bathroom no longer work and …

Rob Marshall turned a New York Times’ Bestseller into a Hollywood box office hit. I have to admit though, it’s not a film I would want to watch over and over again. It’s brilliant. Emotional. Deep. That said, it’s kind of depressing despite the ending. The entire film has …

As an avid movie watcher and Oz obsessive, I was thrilled to finally receive (via Lovefilm) the 2013 movie, Oz the Great and Powerful. The film features a decent cast so I have written a quick list of the main characters and their actors here with a couple of …
