Failure to launch/Matthew Mcconagughey & Sarah Jessica Parker

The Lone Ranger Movie
“The Lone Ranger” is more than just a western. It delicately combines the ironic take on the genre and the homage to the similar European and American classics. To me “The Lone Ranger” is something like “Pirates of the Caribbean”, but in the Wild West. Here, in contrast with …

Flushed Away
I enjoyed this movie for its settings more than anything else. It is an interesting concept to view the surface world above as �up there�, and to have an entire city, Ratopolis, below, loosely resembling London. The film primarily reminded me of Romancing the Stone. The female lead, Rita, …
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 …

London - (starring Jessica Biel)

Eurotrip Movie

50 Movie Pack Classic Musicals DVD Collection

I am not a huge Matthew Broderick fan but I ended up watching one of his movies last night; Biloxi Blues; mostly because I was in the mood for a good war movie.
