Underworld: Rise of the Lycans movie
When I went to the theater to watch this movie, I thought I almost knew what I was going to see, but to my pleasant surprise, I was wrong. What I really witnessed was far better than I I had expected.
What they give us is the movie unlike its …
Dan in Real Life
You cannot help but adore the actors, Steve Carell and Juliette Binoche is this romantic comedy. To be honest, I found it hard to associate Binoche with a comedy because I have always seen her interprets very serious and difficult characters; however I must admit that she is a …
Fame (1980)
A TV musical makes it debut on the silver screen and makes you want to get up and dance along. Not many movies in my eyes can make the leap from TV to cinema, but this movie along with a few others have managed to do so and still …
Police Academy (1984)
Comedy has a new flavor and this movie throws it directly into your lap and gives you no other alternative but to like it, and like it you will. This movie hosts a band of misfits that have come to be trained as police officers. The trouble that they …
The Clinic 2010 movie
As far as a horror movie goes this is every women’s nightmare. I didn’t find this film either jumpy neither scary but i found it utterly disturbing. The thought that some of those things can happen in real life, that places like this existed was disturbing enough without having …
Drugstore Cowboy movie
Drugstore Cowboy is a movie about a young man, Bob and his wife, Kelly. Matt Dillon plays Bob and Kelly Lynch is great as Diane. Bob and Diane have known each other since they were kids and have been getting in trouble for years. They both have been to …
Stargate
Since the dawn of movie making, there have always been a few actors that take weird, off the wall, ecentric roles instead of traditional leading men or leading lady roles. Such is true with current Boston Legal actor, James Spader. He appeared in a great 1994 film called Stargate …
A Little Princess
A Little Princess is a movie made in 1995 that stares Liesel Matthews, Eleanor Bron and Liam Cunningham. This is a family movie which has an exceptional sweet and sad story. It would be one of the all time best I have seen.
I really do consider this to be …
Ratatouille film
Ratatouille is an instant classic computer-animated film by Pixar and Walt Disney Pictures. It tells the story of a rat living in Paris who dreams of becoming a chef. This movie delivers the full package; a great plot, amazing animation, humor, and a heart warming moral.
The animation …

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
I have seen some bad movies in my day, but good lord does this one take the cake. I know, it’s kind of popular to hate on Michael Bay, but he can, more often than not, deliver an entertaining popcorn flick. Heck, I enjoyed the first Transformers …
My Life in Ruins
Although it is, in my opinion, a chick-flick, “My Life in Ruins” is a great, light-hearted movie, and if you enjoyed “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” then you will be sure to enjoy this movie. The writing and acting will not be recognized at the Oscars next year, but …
The Santa Clause (1994 film)
One Christmas movie that I have really enjoyed ever since I first watched it was the 1994 film The Santa Clause. There was so much magic in this film and gave viewers a first glance look at the North Pole, which is of course every child’s dream, and the …
Movie : Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a really funny movie! My wife and I watched it the other night and were both pleasantly surprised. The movie features Jason Segal (who plays Marshall on “How I Met Your Mother) and Kristen Bell (who starred in the recently canceled “Veronica Mars”). …
Wall-E
Wall-E by Pixar is an enchanting movie which is delightful, although it has a darker theme than most Pixar movies.
Wall-E opens with a tiny robot moving through an immense garbage dump. His only companion is his pet cockroach. Wall-E has a lot of personality and innocence, and also a …
Mystery Science Theater 3000, movie (1995)
Influential films and programmes come in all shapes and sizes, ones that inspire you to go out and make videos yourself. I find there are three categories of influential media: first are the ones that you’re told changed how the media industry works, like —˜Citizen Kane’ or —˜Birth or …
X Men cartoon series
The X men cartoon TV show is very good. I really love this show. This is probably one of the most exciting and action packed TV shows ever made. And I use to wake up early just to see it every Saturday morning.
I think the story lines and plots …
Bingo (1991 movie)
The first time that I saw the movie “Bingo” was several years ago in either the late nineteen nineties or the early two thousands, and I was not very impressed with the movie. Even when I watched it a little more recently, I still was not impressed with it. …
Blue Butterfly movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Blue Butterfly. This movie is about a terminal little boy who wants to go to the rainforest to catch the blue butterfly. His idol is a broken, emotionally drained, insect man who takes a trip into the forest every year. Pete is …
The Blind Side-Movie
I anticipated that as soon as The Blind Side was available on DVD that it would be my goal to see it right away, and I did this past weekend. Just the previews and trailers alone made me cry, so I knew it would be a very heart-warming movie. …
Eastwood Mall Cinema 5 Quezon City
I have reviewed Angels and Demons movie already and I watched it at Eastwood Mall together with my computer. I initially wanted it to be at Cinema 7 because it has a reclining couple’s chair but since the screening time is too late within the day, I just chose …
A Christmas Without Snow movie
From 1980, Michael Learned starred in A Christmas Without Snow. For me, it’s a little too much of a movie in search of a plot. Yes, there is a lot going on, but it’s a bit disjointed. Things happened more to make a story than it …

Ray, directed by Taylor Hackford is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for depiction of drug addiction, sexuality and some thematic elements. The original release date was October 29, 2004 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Biography/Drama/Music and stars Jamie Foxx …
9 ½ Weeks (1986)
This movie is simple about two people who get involved in sexual activity, nothing more nothing less, well; it is actually a bit more complex than just that. A wall street investor meets a beauty and seductive art gallery employee while he was doing business in New York, their …
Film Carrie
The film that launched the books of Stephen Kin into fame and had a similar effect on director Brian De Palma’s career, Carrie is considered by many to be a classic horror film and a perfect example of high school hell.
Telling the tale of poor Carrie White, object of …
Movie Mrs Winterbourne
I was flipping through the cable channels last night and I ran across a movie that I had not seen in a long time. It was called Mrs Winterbourne and it starred Brandon Fraser, Ricki Lake.
Mrs Winterbourne was about a case of mistaken identiy that goes too …
Quantum of Solace
Quantum of Solace, is a decent bond film, but nothing like the originals, and pales in comparison to the previous bond film. This movie does have action, however, it is a darker and more serious bond. The story is mediocre, and mostly involves Bond getting over what happened in …
Jingle All the Way
Christmas is just around the corner and the television networks are getting a jump start on the season by playing plenty of holiday movies. I came across one the other day I haven’t seen in a while; Jingle All the Way.
This one was actually about as funny as I …

Flood! movie
The seventies were big on disaster films, and Flood! was right smack in the middle of it. Obviously, the natural disaster at the heart of this movie is a flood, made possible by a lot of rain and an official who refuses to open the dam gates.
Flood! is …
The Day After Tomorrow
This is one timely movie. Global warming is an issue that everybody should be familiar with and something that our world leaders should address. I saw the movie mainly because of Jake Gyllenhaal who I think is one talented and good-looking actor. But I was surprised that I actually …
Sherlock Holmes The Soultry Cyclists
I am not a Shelock Holms fan., but I was quite curious to watch his movie(s), as I have heard a lot abt him and Sir Author Conan Doyle, the creator of SH. Yesterday, I got a chance to watch one of his films named ‘Sherlock Holmes -The Soultry …
The Men Who Stare at Goats
I really didn’t know what to expect when I went to the theatre to watch The Men Who Stare at Goats, but from what I had read and seen, I was intrigued enough to actually not wait to see it on DVD, which is unusual for me. Plus, I …
Spiderman 3, Sam Raimi Movie
Opened with a mosaic of scenes spider-man 1 & 2 accompanied by the Spider-man theme works of Danny Elfman combination with the new theme works of Christopher Young, then the adventure begins the third Spider-man. Now, Peter Parker has grown, even he is ready to apply MJ. This decision …
Cocktail
“Cocktail” helped the actor Tom Cruise to become more famous in Hollywood; however I don’t believe that this is his best film from his initial stages. If I had to chose between “Cocktail”, “Top Gun” and “Risky Business”, I prefer to watch “Top Gun” and putting “Cocktail” the least movie …
Two Weeks Notice (2002)
Two Weeks Notice is a movie starring two of hollywoods’ heavy hitters in that of Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock. The plot of this movie has been done so many times over and over it starts to become so repetative, but just like a bad song that you just …
Beauty and the Beast
We watched this classic last week and were in awe of the production, acting and story line. Jean Cocteau directed Beauty and the Beast in 1947, so you know the movie is worth viewing. Filmed in black and white, spoken in French (but has English subtitles) with the best …
The Usual Suspects
The Usual Suspects is in my opinion, one of the best and most clever movies of all time. It’s one of those movies where you don’t really fully understand what is happening until the very last frame. The story (which one an oscar for best screenplay) is …
What We Do in the Shadows-2014 Comedy, Horror Movie
What We Do in the Shadows is a comedy movie. It is one of the most inventive and unique movies i have ever seen regardless of its extremely low budget. As a matter of first importance, let me tell you that this is neither a Twilight parody nor it have …
The Notebook DVD
The Notebook is a novel based movie staring Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling. The novel that the movie was based on was written by Nicholas Sparks. The Notebook is rated PG-13 for some sexuality and is 124 minutes long. The movie is 2 hours, but I felt like the …
Movie Firewall
I bought this movie a while back and I am glad I did. It was really good. It’s kind of long but it’s good. There is some action in the movie but the whole movie isn’t full of action. All of the actors do an amazing job in the …
Let’s Go To Prison DVD Movie
Another DVD movie that I have watched would be Let’s Go To Prison. This movie stars Dax Shepard, a career criminal. This movie is about his revenge on a judge that has put him away to jail. His revenge is because of the fact that he …
P.S I Love You
I recently went and saw the movie P.S I Love You. It turned out a lot better than I’d thought. I was at first hesitant to see it becaue it did not have good reviews with the critics. However, I turned out to be pleasantly surprised. It was definitely …
Ultimate Avengers 2 Movie
The sequel to Marvel’s first Ultimate Avengers movie is, in my humble opinion, superior to the first. Having established our characters at this point, Ultimate Avengers 2 is allowed to take a bit more time advancing a plot.
Not that there aren’t a couple of new characters here. …
