luxurious setting, The Talented Mr. Ripley is the story of Tom Ripley …

I just watched my Best Friend’s Wedding again - I haven’t seen it since it came out. The initial thought that struck me was omigod! the clothes. I had to watch this just to remember what the clothes looked like and how giant cell phones were back then. (Seriously. …

Based on the synopsis of this film by Joel and Ethan Cohen, I would not have bothered with Fargo, but a friend whose opinion I trusted recommended I watch it and it is now one of my favorites. Set in wintry Minnesota, William H. Macy plays a dodgy …

I have seen plenty of musical films that take the generic route but not this one, the music is the real heart of this movie. The characters and the plot revolves around the idea of making good songs that will move the audiences without asking them.
I was moved watching this …

I don’t normally like the actor Jack Black in movies, and I don’t normally like his movies either. In fact, one of the few which I remember liking was “Saving Silverman”. This is why I found it so difficult to watch the movie “School of Rock” after it was …

I am reviewing the movie, Gran Torino, starring Clint Eastwood. This movie was made in 2008, and was produced and directed by Clint Eastwood.
Clint Eastwood plays a Korean War vet named Walt Kowalski. He is a cranky, irritable old man who has little time for the people …

Skinwalkers is quite possibly the oddest movie I’ve ever seen, and given the amount of strange and unsettling horror movies I’ve seen over the course of my life, that’s saying a lot. I first saw the movie advertised on another straight to video horror movie release, and the ad …

Pixar has set a whole new standard in animated films. Ice Age is not a Pixar movie. However, I stilled enjoyed it greatly despite not having the Pixar tag on it. Ice Age is great animated movie in my opinion. It is very funny throughout the …

As I mentioned in another review, my daughter convinced my wife to get movies from one of those movie kiosks this past weekend (they just don’t seem to understand we have Netflix for a reason). Since she got two movies for the price of one, my wife decided to …

Finding Nemo is one of my cartoon collections. I love the story so much and I got entertained watching it. I love how the story was made. It was a story of a real parental love. As a watcher I find it a very meaningful animation story. I have …

Some movies are really made to catch awards attention. They often fail because the process becomes terribly inorganic, instead of telling a good story, they somehow focus in smaller details in the film - and while on paper it sounds good, the end material is always somewhat disappointing. Take for …

Kick-Ass is one of my favourite films to come out of the last couple of years, mainly down to how unique it is and its fascinating analysis of a wannabe superhero.
This superhero is just an ordinary teenager, and the story shows that. You get a good back story to …

Director Ronald Emmerich has given us some of the most adored Hollywood blockbusters such as Independence Day and Godzilla but his new venture “The Day After Tomorrow” is not up to par with his earlier work. In this flick he uses the most sought after object of the present …

The movie stars Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway. Sometimes, when I am tired or depressed, I need a good laugh and one of the method that I invoke to have this is to watch feel-good movies. Sometimes cartoons help me with this therapy but I scout for movies like …

I’m one who enjoys a good religious holiday film, and one of my favorites is King of Kings from 1961. This is a remake of the silent classic and stars Jeffrey Hunter. I adore Hunter. He was an incredible actor who could draw me in to …

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 …

This is a ludicrous comedy from the outside but a heresy from the inside. Many Christians who are adept with the Biblical principles will definitely not agree with some ideas presented in this movie concerning God and his being. I admit some scenes here are really funny like when …

I like the concept for New Moon, the second movie episode of the famous Twilight saga based on the Stephenie Meyer bunch of vampire novels, which are causing such a stir in the movie and literary worlds. The reason for the New Moon title is that Bella, the …

In Big Daddy, Adam Sandler’s character, Sonny, is dumped with Julian, his friend’s child. Julian, the little boy, has a lisp and needs lots of attention. Sonny is definitely not a parent, he�s just a guy who tip toes through his life. Sonny really doesn’t have much going on, …

During Christmas time, I had decided to buy The Holiday DVD for my friends since I loved this movie; I made all my friends watch it too. I really like the movie as it gives sense of feeling that not all is lost if you break up with the …

It took over twenty years for a sequel to be made for the Lost Boys, one of the best vampire movies of our time. Instead of getting the proper wide theatrical release it deserved this movie was released on every format on video. Does this aspect of the movie …

With the release of the Transformers on the year 2007, many fans anticipated the sequel of the famed Transformers. I was one of them. The first movie captured my interest (although I’m already a fan of the old school Transformers cartoons) because of the plot, action scenes, and most specially …

I went to this movie with high hopes that, even though the director of the first two films had left for “Superman Returns”, it would still be just as good as the first two. I was sorely dissapointed in the movie’s treatment of it’s characters, overall story, and …

Growing up, I was a die hard Herbie fan. So, when they made another Herbie movie, starring Lindsay Lohan, I had to watch it because… it was Herbie!
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting too much. I thought they would probably deviate too far from the original genius of the …

If you ask me about my opinion of this movie. It is —“ “I just wasted 1 hour plus of my life! *Censored*! *Censored*! *Censored*!”
In fact, I did thought of naming this review “VooDoo - a movie to waste 1 hour plus of you life away”. But I guess, …

I’m far from being a Paris Hilton fan. She’s an OK actress but isn’t someone that is going to have me going out of my way to rent a movie just to watch her. But, of all the movies we watched this past weekend, her film “Pledge This” surprisingly …

With all due respect to my fellow reviewers on this site, I thought this movie was pitiful. I recently saw the movie when my father came to town begging to catch this new thriller. What ensued was a couple hours of just absolute silliness. The movie …

As a bonafide horror buff, I rented Gothika under the impression that anything containing supernatural horror, Penelope Cruz, and Halle Berry-would be nothing less than a thrill. Much to my chagrin, the movie is slightly less than thrilling. Entertaining, yes. Creepy in parts-yes. Thrilling-no. …

The Raven with Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi.

This was a really good movie. It’s about a teenager that has an accident and afterwards he can’t really remember a lot of things. He has to write a lot of daily things in a notebook to remember them. He works at a Bank as a janitor and he …

This movie stars Micheal Keaton, and I’m pretty sure that it’s classified as a horror flick, perhaps more accurately “thriller”.
The film focuses around EVP (electronic voice phenomenon). Basically, it’s where one records “white noise” from a television set and/or radio, perhaps asking questions they hope to be answered. …

Bringing down the house is a fine comedy movie. This Steve Martin and Queen Latifah starred movie is I have watched this movie on DVD and it is a nice movie, at least one doesn’t get bored at any point of the movie. The performances of Queen Latifah and …

The Hot Spot is an ultra cool movie about a man who comes to town. When this man comes to town, everything that was static becomes shaken up. Don Johnson plays Harry and while I am not a Don Johnson fan (at all!) , I do like him in …
