Where Got Ghost? movie
Jack Neo label it as Hor-medy. There are a total of 3 stories in this movie and I would say that the stories are short enough but not that bad in making me laugh.
I enjoyed at least 2 of the stories and in a way, it’s not …
A Few Good Men
A few Good men is a thrilling movie released in 1992 and directed by Rob Reiner. It is one of those movies that once you get to watch it you would definitely want to get a copy for your collection. The main story is about a weakly in the …
Girl Happy movie
1965 gave the world another Elvis Presley movie, this time called Girl Happy. It featured, once again, Shelley Fabares. She and the King had a real chemistry going, but I have to say that I hated her hairdo in this flick. She looked really funny with …
Columbo: Uneasy Lies the Crown movie
Columbo: Uneasy Lies the Crown has quite a few well known names in it, including several famous folks who play themselves. It’s a unique setup for the murder of the movie where the guilty party uses a poker game as part of his alibi, not that it works. …
Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …
Spotlight (2015 Drama Movie)
I was not even aware the film Spotlight existed until I saw that it was nominated for several Academy Awards. Thus I did a little bit of my own research on it and saw that the topic was definitely something that I would be interested in. What piqued my interest …
Silent Hill (2006 movie)
I’m quite the horror fanatic, especially when it comes to video games. Thus, I am quite the Silent Hill junkie. I absolutely love the games (with the exception of Homecoming and my minor dismays with Shattered Memories) and play them all the time.
Now, when I first saw the movie, …
The Lakehouse (2006) Movie
Life is only travelled once. Today’s moments may be tomorrow’s memories. The movie Lakehouse depicts the story of two people who fell in love through a time difference of two years– a past and a future. Alex (Keannu Reeves) and Kate (Sandra Bullock) proved to the world that …
Jerry Maguire
I watched the movie Jerry Maguire for about the third or fourth time last night and have to say, while a good movie, it could have been much better.
I liked the idea of a movie that focuses on the part of professional sports most films barely even mention; sports …

Tropic Thunder
When I first saw the movie “Tropic Thunder” advertising, all I could think about was that it was not going to be funny because the actor and comedian “Jack Black” was in it. I normally have a problem with that actor as I think he is not a very …
Blood Sport
Blood Sport is a classic fighting movie. It’s a great 80s movie with a lots of heart in it. I think Jean Claude Van Damme did a great job of acting in the movie. His fighting style and moves were very good. He has a lot of heart and energy …
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
With hollywood turning every comic book into a movie that they can find, quality has some how taken a back seat. I’m not sure why these hollywood mega moguls would sacrifice putting out a good movie. It’s not like they need the money afterall. But nonetheless, quality is put …
Beethoven the movie
I watched Beethoven the movie last night. This movie is pretty flawed but a decent time overall, if you are into dog comedies. It stars Charles Grodin and is produced by comedy legend Ivan Reitman. It came out in 1991.
I think overall it is most notable for a few …
Deja Vu DVD Movie
I am not sure if there is a Deja vu, in real life, or that time could be traced back to where we wanted things not to happen. This is the case for the movie Deja vu, which stars my favorite actor, Denzel Washington.
This movie is about Denzel, …
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 …
Perkins’ 14 movie
I watched this movie with a few expectations. But suprisingly, they were not met. Even though the movie was scary, I didn’t expect it to unfold as awkwardly as it did. The premise of the film is that a man whose parents were murdered ended up …
The Hulk 2008
When I first saw the movie “Hulk” being advertised before it came out in theatres, I thought that it was actually a sequel to the previous movie which came out a couple years before in the year 2003. However, after seeing it advertise a few more times I realized …
One Missed Call movie
One missed call is a great movie. It has great actors in it, a good storyline and kept me interested throughout the movie. The ending could have been a little bit better but it was still a good ending. It started off really good, once I started watching it …
Millennium movie
From 1989, this science fiction movie speaks to me for some reason, and I really don’t know why. There’s just something about it that makes me want to watch it, over and over again … and I do.
Millennium stars Kris Kristofferson as Bill Smith, who as a young …
The Black Cauldron

Movie Death Race
A movie I just finished watching about three minutes before I decided to write a review about, Death Race was quite a well executed watch.
I was excited about what to expect of this movie from the moment I heard the name, and I already had some expectations and predictions …
It Happened to Jane movie
This 1959 Doris Day movie, It Happened to Jane, is one of my favorite Day productions. It costars Jack Lemmon, and Lemmon is just top notch. He and Day are wacky and adorable together. For most of the film, they’re just friends with underlying love that …
Harry Potter Movie: Goblet of Fire
As a fan of the Harry Potter series, I have to admit some disappointment in the movies. There has been no continuity in environment. To their credit, most of the main characters have remained the same, which makes the recognition factor easier.
Yet, from one movie to the next, Hogwarts …

Friday the 13th Part 7
When I watch a movie, I can’t help but pay attention to the actors. If a movie uses bad actors, then the chances are good that I’m going to despise the movie. That’s my main problem with Friday the 13th part 7. I knew going in that the movie …
Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All movie
From 1989, Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All stars Stacy Keach in the title role of the famous private eye created by Mickey Spillane. This is somewhat of a weird plot that has Mike Hammer being transported covertly to Las Vegas. One thing leads to another and Hammer …

Movie : Exte by Sion Sono
Wow! This movie is definitely a much better film than you would ever expect from the goofy premise. A film that basically is about cursed hair extensions I wasn’t expecting much but then again I was. Sion Sono is a brilliant, disturbed and talented director who …
Julie and Julia movie
I literally had no interest in this movie when I saw it advertising to be released in theatres. In fact, I just assumed that it would be one of those movies that had one or two A-list actors in it that they promoted a lot, but would have no …
Earth: movie
This is, and hold on to your chair, my absolute favorite film of all time. I just wanted to clear that out before anything else. As I am a fan of cinema, that is the visual element before anything, the basic story in Earth isn’t really that interesting. Of …

Happy Feet
I’ve seen many movies that’s totally hilarious, but ‘Happy Feet reminds me of the old cartoons like ‘Tom and Jerry. I’ve been considered to be the most humorous guy who love to make people wet their pants and for that movie to really move me and to use it …
The Thrill of It All movie
This is another of my very top favorite Doris Day films, and it co-stars James Garner. These two make a great film pair, and I wish they’d done more than this movie and Move Over, Darling.
In this flick, Day stars as Beverly Boyer, happy housewife and mother. …
Rock of Love 2
Ah, Bret Michaels of Poison is looking for love again. Much like several other VH1 reality show stars.
