Blue Valentine movie
Blue Valentine is one of those movies that show that in reality you can find the best things. Not in the rich imaginations of people. This film is fiction, but it’s very detailed, so you can forget it’s fiction, it captured the essence of reality extremely well. It’s a …
“1408″ (2007) based on a Stephen King Short Story
“1408″ (2007)”1408″ is a 2007 movie filmed in color. It is in English and lasts just over 100 minutes. The movie is taken from a short story by Stephen King. Unlike some of his short stories that lend themselves to thoughtful, rich stories, such as “The Shawshank Redemption,” “Heats …
Eight Legged Freaks
I ended up watching the movie Eight Legged Freaks again last night because I hadn’t seen the movie in a while and couldn’t remember a whole lot about it.
Now I remember, this is a better film than you would think it is.
The movie is essentially a spoof of those …
Mean Girls Movie (2004)

The movie …
Showcase Cinemas Randolph MA
I took my daughter today to see Bee Movie at Showcase Cinemas in Randolph. The movie was great…but, I will leave that for someone else. :)
There were a lot of cars in the lot when we arrived, but amazingly, there was still parking close by. The …
Freaky Friday (2003 Disney Movie)
I am not quite fond of Lindsey Lohan but in I admire her act in this movie. The swap between a mother and a daughter has been played by her pretty well. The story follows the same theme many Holiday stories have opted for so there is no uniqueness …
Movie The uninvited
I watched the uninvited about a week ago and I really enjoyed it overall. I thought the movie was interesting, kept my attention, and had a good story behind the movie. My sister and my mother watched the movie as well, and they really enjoyed it. My sisters friend …
The God Who Wasn’t There documentary
The documentary, “The God Who Wasn’t There” is about providing evidence to make a case that the historical figure of Jesus Christ never actually existed. The film is only about an hour long, but makes its case quickly without hesitation or concern about offending anyone. The material includes interviews …
What Happens in Vegas
I really have to catch up on the buzz of this new-released movie, What Happens in Vegas, just released this year, 2008. It stars the unlikely couple in real life; my most favorite actress, Cameron Diaz (well, one of the most though) and the cute, hunky and sobs! …
Movie: The Help (2011)
My family watches a lot of movies, we have cable television and borrow movies from the library. One of the best movies I have seen so far is “The Help,” a movie adapted from the book by Kathryn Stockett. It is a factual and accurate account of life for …
Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, movie
Just by looking at the title, you can tell that this isn’t going to be a cinematic game changer. Dumb as it is, I can actually see the train of thought that led to this. What would happen to two kids who were terrorized by a witch …
The Wendell Baker Story
If you love Owen Wilson, you will surely love watching this new latest movie out now. I managed to catch it, and this story is about an ex-convict, who tries to make a new living for himself, and works in a retirement hotel.
He wanted to win back the …
Beauty and the Beast
Without the shade of a doubt, ‘Beauty and the Beast’ is by far my favourite story. The first time I read it, it left me in tears and I have a habit of coming back to it times and times again. I find it equally touching every time. There …
Columbo: It’s All in the Game movie
Columbo: It’s All in the Game is rather memorable for a couple of reasons. Of course, there’s the great portrayal of the lead character by Peter Falk, but that’s constant throughout the entire history of the series. Rather, the wonder of this specific episode is Faye Dunaway …
King Kelly of the U.S.A. movie
King Kelly of the U.S.A. was released in 1934 and actually had some entertaining moments. While it dragged here and there and was very vaudeville in spots, it still is pleasing to watch in today’s world.
The story begins on a cruise ship and that is where we meet …
Avatar: Movie
I thought Avatar was a fantastic film, fully meeting my expectations and then some with its brilliantly produced content.
It is the films special effects that have been praised more than anything, and I have to agree with the general consensus when I say that James Cameron has done a …
Artic Tale (2007)
This is a wonderful animal movie for both children and adults. I guess you could say it is a true story as nature photographers filmed it up in the artic (the animals are not trained acting animals - they are the real thing). Words were added to the picture …
Ghost Rider
When I saw the preview to Ghost Rider, I was impressed. I am a fan of Nick Cage and at the time he had 2 movies soon to be released. The imagery of the Ghost rider was good, graphic and it really illustrated the concept; Rider for the devil. …
Sally Field
Sally Field is an amazing American actress. She began her career in The Flying Nun, an old television series about a young nun who could fly (this was due to her habit, not wings!). Sally Field has also starred in such wonderful films as Norma Rae, Sybil, Places In …
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days
I can’t believe that after so many times watching How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, I have not yet reviewed this story at all. Therefore, I am staring now and for those of you whom have not yet made the cut to watch this, what are you …

While I would have perferred the original edits, just having the episodes …
The Fall (R, 2006)
I didn’t realize that Tarsem Singh was responsible for The Cell, as he is also the director on this wonderful film. The colors are so lush and spectacular that you are automatically drawn into the story. As for the story, this is a “period” film set …
Be Kind Rewind movie
The title and cover looked kind of cheesy to me, and so I guess that I was a little reluctant to watch it. I thought that it was going to have poor acting, bad visual effects, and a lame storyline. And it did, but it was absolutely hilarious.
Jack Black …
Match Point (2005)
Match Point is a 2005 movie from writer and director Woody Allen. I am always more excited about a new Woody Allen film if he is in it because I love to see him delivering his own lines but someone recommended this to me and I must admit …

Spider-man: Homecoming - (Movie 2017)
It almost seems every few years we have a new Spider-man franchise. While I’m definitely a fan of the days where Toby Maguire graced the screens as Peter Parker/Spider-man, Spider-man: Homecoming took me to a more refreshing look at Spider-man himself.
The Spider-man franchise starring Maguire and …
Saw V
Saw V is the second movie in the series where James Wan had nothing to do with, this time they got a new director, David Hackl. The movie was released around Halloween again, a year after the last. While not as pathetic as Saw IV this film is pathetic, …

Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)

Cinemark 12 Theatre in Rockwall
This theatre is located at the Harbor in Rockwall. It is in a great location since there are a lot of different restaurants around it.
Right at one of the front doors, though, there are some arcade games and quarter prize machines inside. So when you walk in there …
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 …
High School Musical 3: Epic Ending
Disney truly has outdone itself this time with “High School Musical 3.” It is a fitting finish to the entire franchise that spawned such fervor in the preteen/high-schooler-wannabe population, and I am very pleased with the ending. The theaters were packed with people of all ages to see the …

Multiplicity (1996)
All I am thinking is that…if the role of Doug Kinney had been offered to someone else, this movie might not be as good as it was. I really love Michael Keaton. He is so versatile. By the way, Doug Kinney in the story whom Michael …
Something about Mary movie
“Something about Mary” is the most successful movie for the Farrelly brothers. They tried to recreate the same atmosphere in another movie “Me, Myself and Irene” and failed miserably. This movie is also Cameron Diaz and Ben Stiller passport to success because, before this movie, they were not very …
Creep (2014 horror film)
This was easily one of my all time favorite horror films I have ever seen. I feel that the camera work and the acting from Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice were simply amazing. If you are someone who enjoys found footage style films, you’ll enjoy this one a lot. In …
The Rival movie
Once again, I found myself watching a movie on the Lifetime movie network last night and found myself enjoying it.

Belle (historical drama movie)
I love watching historical movies, and that is why I was so eager to see “Belle” after I had seen the trailer only months before it was released. What piqued my interest about it even more was that it was supposed to be based on the story revolving around a …
