Religulous (Documentary)
Religulous is a documentary by Larry Charles which features Bill Maher which basically focuses on mocking religious belief, although I will stress now that it primarily only focuses on the Western religions, extremely little to no attention at all is given on the other Wisdom Traditions. I personally find …
Robinson Crusoe movie
This is the version by surrealist Luis Buñuel, which is surprisingly enough a most conventional film. Buñuel was otherwise a filmmaker who never let the audience’s needs come in conflict with his artistic vision, and only created what he felt was important. His version of Robinson Crusoe shows that …
BROTHERS GRIMM DVD
If you’ve ever read a fairy tale, you’ve most certainly read or heard the tales of the brothers Grimm! This is a wonderful movie to see! It is exciting and funny and sad……….lots and lots of drama, here!
The tale starts with the younger Grimm brother having sold the family …
Borderland
Borderland is one of the most convoluted horror movies that I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of horror movies over the years. I bought the movie because it was part of the After Dark Horror Fest and I loved most of the movies that they released in …
Kill Bill
I think Kill Bill is one of the best new movies to come out recently. The female hero is great! She is like a super ninja trying to get revenge on her ex boyfriend who left her for dead at her own wedding. They thought they got rid of her …
Alfred Hitchcock’s ROPE (1948)
Alfred Hitchcock’s —˜Rope’ is usually hailed as a classic among his work, getting on top ten lists and people still being talked about today. Sadly all that seems to be discussed is his famous use of the ten minute take, and the gay subtexts the film exhibits in relation …
Annie movie
Annie is the early 1980’s movie of Little Orphan Annie.
Aileen Quinn is the young lady who plays the title role.
I really thought this adaptation of the popular comic strip and play was well done.
This musical was produced really well.
Quinn does a wonderful job as the precocious Annie.
Carole …
21 movie
21, when i heard the name of this movie, I was a little confused as about what this movie would be about? But when I watched it I thought it was worth taking this risk. The movie starts like one boy who is looking to get in to …
Shrek 4: Forever After
I have been a Shrek fan eversince the first movie began until it escalated as one of Hollywood’s best animated film that attracted not only children but the adult movie viewers as well.
I love the all-star cast and the way they portray their characters. I also love how the …
Igor (movie)
One of the animated movies that I was fortunate to watch earlier on this year was the movie “Igor”. To tell you the truth, I didn’t pay a lot of attention to it whenever it was first released not only because the trailer just didn’t interest me, but because …
Terminator Salvation
I recently rented Terminator Salvation in the hopes of a pretty engaging action movie with cool special effects and a little bit of good acting thrown in for good measure. I’ve enjoyed previous Terminator flicks and I figured this one couldn’t be too bad given the cast and …
The Chronicles of Narnia
If you really want your children to enjoy watching a good fantasy movie, than I recommand “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”. This movie has the right ingredients to ensure that every child will enjoy watching it.
I must also add that “The Chronicles of …
Dark Knight Rises movie
And so it ends, the “greatest superhero trilogy of all time”(TM). In 2005, Nolan introduced us to his very tormented take on Batman, the focus being on Bruce Wayne and - the trilogy’s overarching theme - fear. Then, in 2008, he upped the stakes with the epic Dark Knight, …

Movie: Bad Dreams
Bad Dreams is one of my favorite, unabashedly guilty pleasures from the late eighties. Starring Jennifer Rubin, Dean Cameron and the chick who does the voice for Bart Simpson this movie is eighties schlock horror at its best. I remember seeing this movie late one night on …
The Pajama Game movie
Another really wonderful Doris Day movie is The Pajama Game. She plays Babe, and she’s a dynamic dame in the role, that’s for sure. She works in a factory that makes pajamas. The factory hires a new manager, played by John Raitt. Now there’s a …

Whiplash, movie (2014)
Whiplash is a movie whose title gives you goosebumps! A sparkling story of inspiration and energy about what we can do for our life’s purpose. A powerful and impressive film about musicians with great music.
Inspiration is essential in everyone’s life. Think back to those moments when you didn’t notice hunger …

This movie is about a drug lord who is so in control of his area and surround areas that they refer to him as ‘god’. Without any hard information on him, the authorities cannot touch him and that makes him what they call ‘untouchable’. But they are not going …

Mortal Kombat (2010)
The first time I saw this video, I honestly thought it was a fluke, a trick video. Then I recognized Michael Jay White, from Spawn. That’s when it hit me that this was a real video. From what I’ve read, it’s not an upcoming trailer or anything like it. …
Sweet Home Alabama
Oh I love this movie ! The chemistry between the characters is apparent during the film and I love the story line and plot; the characters are round and not two dimensional, in other words there is a lot to uncover about the characters as the story moves on. …
A Doll’s House (1973)
I like movies based on plays, they usually have more depth to them. A Doll�s House, 1973, starring Anthony Hopkins and Claire Bloom, is one such movie. Action fans will probably find it slow and boring, but I enjoyed the excellent performance by both leading actors. The story takes …
Tropic Thunder
Ben Stiller’s new film Tropic Thunder has been getting a lot of heat from African Americans for Robert Downey Jr’s portrayal of a man in what is essentially blackface and from disabilities advocates, unhappy with the way the film discusses the mentally disabled by using the word “retard”. Stiller …

Nanny McPhee is a great new movie that will remind you of the old days of Mary Poppins. I got Nanny McPhee last week when it came out of DVD and am really glad that I now own the movie. The movie is about a group of children who …
For Your Eyes Only movie
James Bond and his arch enemy Ernst Stavro Blofeld returns in this film which is considered as one of the worst by many Bond fans, but I personally think it’s extremely intense all the way through. The story leads Bond through several different countries, facing many dangers as usual, …

The Shepard Border Patrol
I admit that I haven’t watched a lot of Jean Claude Van Damme’s movies. If I have to see a bunch of men jumping, kicking and screaming, I choose to see it through a comic aspect, so I go for a Jackie Chen movie. I broke my rule for …

Bruce Almighty (2003) is a comedy directed by Tom Shadyac and is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for language, sexual content and some crude humor.

From Beyond movie
Splatter movie from the same team who did Re-Animator for example. Just as with that film the story is very naive. A doctor and his friend goes mad and starts experimenting on themselves in hope of getting to a new dimension through the brain. This dimension is filled with …
“Up in the Air” (2009 film)
Director Jason Reitman, in his third feature (after “Juno” and “Thank You for Smoking”) delivers “Up in the Air,” a more heartfelt and poignant effort than either of its predecessors-stylized in a similar way, but much more honest in its pathos-tinged comedy. It works better for me story-wise because …
Beauty Shop movie
I had always seen the movie “Beauty Shop” being advertised on the television guide, but I never took much notice of it until one Saturday when I had nothing else to watch. I always had the impression that it was going to be a stupid and overrated movie starring …
‘Batman: Assault on Arkham’ Movie
I was fortunate to know ahead of time that this wasn’t really a “Batman” movie. Yes, the title would lead you to believe that, but this is really more of a Suicide Squad movie. Batman is in it, but he’s more of a supporting character.
Now, the …

The latter is heartbroken when is girlfriend leaves him for another, so he goes looking for her new love and takes Laurel with him.

Stargate SG-1 Cold Lazarus
The “Cold Lazarus” episode of Stargate SG-1 is one of my favorites because it gives us more insight into the character of the lead character, “Colonel Jack O’Neill” as played by Richard Dean Anderson. Here, we meet the colonel’s estranged wife, “Sara” who is elegantly acted by Harley …

Private Lives of Pippa Lee film
I was really pleasantly surprised by this film. I watched it on my Virgin on Demand service - I was basically browsing for an easy, fun, romantic comedy and thought this fit the bill from the description.
It’s not just a ‘chick flick’ or your predictable Romcom though.
First off, our …
Frozen 2013 Animation (Movie)
After my cousin told me that an animation movie titled “Frozen” is leading the box-office. I knew this movie had some great odds of getting on top of my best animation movies list with “Tangled”. Tangled was released in 2010 with a great funny, hooking story and heart conquering …
Kingsman: The Secret Service (action adventure spy movie)
Kingsman: The Secret Service was one of those movies that I just knew I had to see right after watching the trailer for the first time. The trailer gave me the impression that the movie would be funny, action-packed and overall exciting. When I did actually get the chance to …
The Family That Preys movie (2008)
The Family That Prey is another movie from Tyler Perry that is one of my personal favorites. I have loved it ever since the day I first watched it. Like most of Tyler Perry films and plays they have a moral and usually some kind of twist to the …
The Wedding Planner
In the DVD movie I’ve watched, The Wedding Planner, it starred the unlikely duo; Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey.
Jennifer’s character plays a pretty successful wedding planner and I really like her witty dialogs. Though you might be wondering that perhaps Jennifer and Matthew’s characters wouldn’t fit together …
Film “Extraordinary Measures” (2010)
Extraordinary measures is different from other movies you typically see because it is a true story and was based on a non fiction book about how a father raised money for research to find a cure for his sons. When watching this film I had wondered if it …
Tremors 2: Aftershocks (1996)
Many times over I have mentioned that certain movies do not need a sequel and for every time I mention this fact there comes another movie which is a sequel to prove that fact time and time again. Take this movie for example, the original movie was so good …
