The low budget horror film Scream Dream is a very sad attempt to recreate previous successful cinematic shockers. The lighting of the this movie is absolutely terrible, and the acting abilities are worse. You get a very strong impression that the movie was produced with a home video …

I never saw this movie advertising to be released in movie theatres so I’m not completely sure even now when it came out. However, I remember that the first time I saw it was when it was advertising to premiere on a cable television channe. Even then I didn’t …

I watched this movie not to long ago. Tom Hanks, Amy Adams, Julia Roberts all played in Charlie Wilson’s War. It was about the cold war, Afghanistan and Russia. It was entertaining and kept me interested the whole movie. I think it probably could have ended better. I felt …

In “Pieces of April” we see the actress, Kate Holmes with an image of a bad girl who has a conflictual relationship with her family. The story of “Pieces of April” is good but unfortunately in certain moments in the middle of the movie it may lose it’s potential …

I have watched countless movies in the last year and personally rate Blood Diamond on a par with The Departed as 2006’s best movie. Another strong, mature performance from DiCaprio ensures this movie never flags.
In recent times there has been a glut of African “conscience” movies but this has …

You know, I have seen the live action version of the movie The Jungle Book but this past weekend was the first time I’ve seen the cartoon version. After finally getting a chance to watch it (with my daughter) I have to say I liked the live version better.

OK, so I absolutely bashed the first two prequels in the series. And while Episode 3 does deserve some hate, it’s not near the level of hate I gave to the first two. Hayden Christiansen still can’t act and he and Natalies relationship is still one of …

“What Just Happened” is what I like to call a sleeper film. Much like fantasy football there are sleeper picks which are people that perform much better then thought. This film is the definition of that. “What Just Happened” didn’t have much promotion, actually I …

Bridesmaids is a film that has been out for a while now, and I have been dying to see it. This weekend, I finally got around to it, and I must say that it caused me to laugh harder and more often than any other film in recent memory. …

This movie is weird and crazy. I personally think it’s funny in a way that I can’t believe Cillian Murphy did and accepted this role, and funny that someone would even think of Lucy Liu’s character here to be that crazy! The director must be crazy too to even …

Classic love triangle, memorable lines, told against an exotic backdrop of French Morocco. These elements served the artists well back in 1942, and have stood the test of time. Casablanca is a treasure among great films.

How can a cliché post-apocalyptic movie even be considered a horror movie? Did the After Dark Horror Fest standards changed when the second batch of movies were released? Tooth & Nail is by no means a real horror movie, not even familiar faces can save this movie.
A group …

In my opinion, this is Jim Carrey’s best movie. This is one that never fails to crack me up. When Jim Carrey’s character who is a workaholic lawyer is forced to tell the truth for a whole day after his son makes a birthday wish that his …

Employee of the Month with Dane Cook, Jessica Simpson, and Dax Shepard.
Okay I rented this movie in the hopes of seeing Jessica Simpson naked. Given this marvel did not occur I was definitely disappointed with this film. Simpson is the trophy for a …

It’s not often I come across a horror film that actually scares me to the point I want to make sure all the doors and windows are locked. The Hills Have Eyes 2 managed to accomplish this.
The 2007 remake turned out to be one of the scarier movies I’ve …

It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …
