Movies Reviews
Cocoon
I don’t know why I like this 1985 movie so much. I can still remember watching it for the first time when it had come out; it is a comedy that involves some aliens, and compared with today’s technology, I guess you might say it is nothing special. Most …
Father of the Bride
I’ve probably already reviewed this movie a couple of times but this is one of the best wedding movies ever. I always get a little teary eyed when I watch it. Steve Martin is always wonderful to watch. This is the ultimate ‘Dad’ movie. I remember when we saw …
Jaws
Jaws is probably one of the scariest movies ever made. And Jaws is also the reason I’m scared to go in the water when I’m at the beach. This movie can really scare people and really make you feel uncomfortable. I really did enjoy the music in jaws. The …

Mystery Science Theater 2000: The Movie
I thought that every Mystery Science Theater was a movie, but that isn’t really the point. There really isn’t anything very special about this episode of “Mystery Science Theater” compared to any of the others, but then there doesn’t have to be. Watching Mystery Science Theater is the next …
The Dark Knight
The 2nd Batman movie, The Dark Knight, is a great movie. In this movie, Batman/Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) tries to stop the corruption in Gotham. He has help from his on/off again love interest Rachel Dawes (Maggie Gyllenhaal) and his good older friend Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman), who basically …

Kung Fu Panda
I saw ‘Kung Fu Panda’ a few days ago. The first thing that hit me as soon as the movie started was the awesome graphics. This animated movie brings together Jack Black(Po), Dustin Hoffman(master shifu), Angelina Jolie (Tigress), Ian McShane (Tai Lung), Jackie Chan (Monkey), Lucy Liu (Viper), Seth …
27 Dresses (2008)
Here we go again, yet another dull, boring and dreary chick flick to torture the living daylights out of you and leave you wondering why the hell do developers keep putting such utter rubbish on the silver screen, but worst, why do people pay good money to go and …
Paranormal Activity (R, 2007)
As soon as I heard that Paranormal Activity was coming to theaters I wanted to see it immediately. I have long been a fan of movies like this, and was waiting with baited breath to see some horror that wasn’t contrived and silly. I am actually glad …
The Four Feathers movie
I kept getting this movie from the library and neglecting to watch it, because for some reason I thought that it looked boring. Then, when I finally got down to watch it, I could not leave the couch for anything and miss a few moments of that movie. It …
The Woman Hunter movie
Post I Dream of Jeannie, Barbara Eden took the movie circuit with this made for TV number called The Woman Hunter. Eden is lovely. She always has been, and that’s one of the best parts of watching this film. Eden and location shooting in Acapulco are …
Monster-In-Law movie
Monster-In-Law is a super cute movie about a meddling mother who will not let her son marry the girl that he loves (or any girl he wants to be with, for that matter). Jane Fonda plays the mom and her son is Kevin. Jennifer Lopez is so cute and …
Movie Click
Usually I love movies that Adam Sandler are in. He is usually really funny and always makes me laugh. I only remember laughing in one part in this movie where the kid gets hit in the face with the ball. Another thing I didn’t like about it is that …
High School Musical 3
I finally get to watch the much anticipated High School Musical 3 which has recently been released in my country. I watched this with my bunch of friends and we are all so crazily loving the amazing and improved dance steps in this part 3 and the singing though …
Girl Next Door (R, 2007) movie
I watched “American Crime” a film featuring Catherine Keener as Gertrude Banieszewski. This film was based on the horribly true story of Sylvia Likens. She was a 16 year old girl who was tortured and beaten to death in the 1960s. This film is …
Carnage (2011 drama movie)
I only became familiar with the movie Carnage when I saw it being aired on Starz Cinema some time last year. I was looking for something interesting and unique to watch, and it was the plot that drew me to it. While watching the movie I realized that it was …

Evolution Movie
Science Fiction comedy in the same category as Ghostbusters for example. A meteorite hits the earth and brings with it a strange new form of life that threatens to take over the planet, or does it?
There’s not much to say about this. If you liked Ghostbusters, Men in Black …

The Last Starfighter movie
The Last Starfighter is a neat little science fiction story that is interesting and entertaining to watch. Robert Preston really excelled as his mysterious and colorful character of Centauri. I think I like his portrayal the best. He’s funny, and he keeps you guessing.
Lance Guest played …
Cabin in The Woods movie
Since Halloween is just around the corner, I decided it was time to start watching (and reviewing) some horror films! A recent, and extremely well-reviewed “horror film” that I missed in theaters so decided to rent was “Cabin in the Woods”. A family member of mine recommended it, and …

Leap Year Movie
Hubby and I had a movie marathon last night. After watching a few depressing movies, we decided to watch Leap Year to lighten the mood a bit before going to sleep. I’ve always love Amy Adams’ movies but this one, I’m afraid is not one of them. This …
Bambi (Disney Movie)
Bambi is a very delightful movie and it’s very cool. I really think Bambi is a great movie for young people and even adults. The morals in this movie are good and should be learned by all. I think that Bambi looks really cue and he is very lovable. I …
George Lopez: America’s Mexican
I love the George Lopez shows, that air on nick. But the stand up I found kind of racy and not to funny. Some parts was more funny I enjoyed the childhood parts but overall I am glad he is proud of his race, but it got to the …
X-Men: Days of Future Past (movie)
One of the movies that I went to see fairly recently was the latest in the X-Men series, which was X-Men: Days of Future Past. Missing it would not have been an option for me since I loved watching the animated series and reading the comics growing up, the …
88 minutes movie

“Profoundly Normal” (2003 Lifetime Movie Film)
This 2003 Lifetime Movie Newtwork film “Profoundly Normal”, starring Kirstie Alley and Delroy Lindo was really a movie that can touch the hearts of many people. I was unsure of what type of film this would be. But within the first few minutes of the film I realized what …
The Butterfly Effect (2004)
One of the few adequate performances by Ashton Kutcher (who normally works a tired cliché part). Here he does an acceptable job (but not a great one) of portraying the main character who is able to move back in time and change the future. The movie is …
Shrek Forever (movie)
I totally forgot about this Shrek movie until my brother reminded me about it some time ago. It’s the fourth Shrek film, and even though I didn’t get the idea that it was as popular as the other movies, I thought that it was every bit as fun and …
Music of the Heart (1999)
Based on actual events, this movie shows to viewers that you can find hope in any situation once there is resolve to stand strong and believe. Take this movie for example, when a music department is cut from the school due to the lack of budget resources, they teacher …
Snakes on a Plane, David Ellis Movie
‘Snakes on a Plane’ (SoaP) is one of the internet phenomenon in the beginning. Long before released, this movie becomes the subject of debate and discussion, which is quite warm. And it is quite a trick successfully. ‘SoaP’ successfully occupies the first rank Box Office when released.
A young …
Sweeney Todd
I just put Sweeney Todd into my DVD player again. I absolutely love this movie; there is something about Johnny Depp singing operatically while slitting someone’s throat that is just captivating. I think Tim Burton did brilliantly with this movie. Across the front of the DVD …
I Robot
Whenever I see Will Smith in a movie, I expect there to be action. His film I, Robot, is a perfect example of this.
Based in the future, when robots have become part of everyday life, Smith plays a cop who is convinced the robots will eventually try to take …

Shutter Movie
I have seen this movie last April,2008. I knew that it was a horror movie but I never thought that it would be such a shocker.
There was a newly wed couple traveling by car going to Japan, then the guy who was driving hit a woman …
Repulsion movie
Roman Polanskis masterful effort about a woman, played by the beautiful Catherine Deneuve, who step by step goes insane in here solitude. Polanski builds the suspense like only a master would be able to. The narrative is very unpredictable, almost claustrofobic, and Deneuve is excellent in the leading role. …
Waterboy
When the movie Waterboy first came out, it was one of my favorite movies. But, after watching it quite a few times, both on DVD and on TV, I’m coming to realize it really isn’t that great of a film after all.
Adam Sandler is funny in it and I …

Day Of The Dead movie
Me and my mother are big fans of zombie films. We have seen a lot of zombie films but this one is my favorite. This was just actually a remake of a classic film of the same name. I haven’t watched that one so I cannot compare which is …
