Past the Bleachers is a poignant and wonderful 1995 TV movie that starred Richard Dean Anderson and Glynnis O’Connor as parents trying to move on with their lives after their son had died. It’s a trying time. The two are trying to have another baby, but Anderson’s …

The Invisible is a movie that I recently picked up and was fairly surprised to find that I liked it, at least more than I thought I would. This is another one of those straight to DVD releases, but unlike other movies this one has some spectacular acting and …

The movie “Salt” has received a lot of much-anticipated hype, especially around my hometown. I have to admit that I was a bit excited to see another good flick featuring Angelina Jolie. I liked her in “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”, “Tomb Raider”, etc. Therefore, my dad …

I woke up with a cold yesterday and slept all day. Today I was kind of tired so I just tried to stay in bed for most of the day. I couldn’t really get to sleep but I didn’t feel like getting up or doing anything. So I decided …

The screenplay of this film was written by Quentin Tarantino, but it was directed by Tony Scott. The result of this got better than I personally would have expected, as it is an amazingly intense action road movie with a lot of graphical violence and a list of quality …

I have never seen a stand-up comedy movie as funny as this one. I was a little weirded out by the fact that it was a “movie”–and not just a consecutive stand-up routine that was filmed. This movie featured Katt Williams and other comedians. But what …

The Last Man on Earth is an old black and white movie based on the Richard Matheson short story “I Am Legend” as is the Will Smith movie by the same name. Seeing the movies together is a completely odd experience because both are completely different. In this movie …

One of the movies that I had an interest in seeing late last year was the movie “Premium Rush”. I had seen the trailer when viewing the coming attractions before watching a movie and I thought that not only did it look interesting, but it seemed like a pretty …

Quinceanera is a really complex film that has several different layers. Those who have no idea what a Quinceanera is, should understand that it is very much like a Sweet Sixteen or a Bar Mitzvah in U.S. culture. The Quinceaneara is really just the foundation for the …

Showgirls is one of the most idiotic, lame and stupid movies I’ve ever has the non-pleasure of watching. Elizabeth Berkley attempts to pull off her pitiful character, Nomi, and fails miserably. I never thought much of Elizabeth Berkley and her acting anyway, and Showgirls was the straw that broke …

An unknown character and actor at the time to me, Christian Bale makes his grand debut as a wall street trader who is very into himself and also has a very dark fetish for causing people pain, also, he is extremely homophobic. In the beginning, he used to take …

This movie has the feel of a low-budget thriller. And at first I was reluctant to sit through an entire viewing. But since someone actually referred the movie to me, I gave it a chance. I am glad that I did. While I found …

I didn’t hear about the movie “Go” until some time ago when I was still in high school. At first I thought it was just going to be a silly movie so I didn;t watch it at the time, but about a year and a half later I was …

Edward Scissorhands is a very heart-wrenching story that makes me cry buckets each time I watched. I just can’t get enough of Johnny Depp in this story and this is one of the best movies by him ever that I dubbed him one of the best actors. He totally deserves …

I really get a kick out of For Pete’s Sake, a 1974 movie with Barbra Streisand and Michael Sarrazin. They play a newly married couple just making it from day to day. Pete (Sarrazin) drives a taxi, while Heniretta (Streisand) tends to their apartment and acts essentially …

The 2000 film “X-Men” starring Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen is a supernatural film almost about a war that is being waged, as well as prejudice’s that people have over the unexplained and different. This is a topic that many people can relate to, and even …

Should I be annoyed? I really don’t know. Why do we as women allow our decisions, especially when it comes to love and marriage to be clouded by perception? The perception of friends, relatives and society, as to what is ideal and what is ‘necessary’?
In Tyler Perry’s …

I heard very little about Zombieland before I rented it, however in passing I heard nothing but praise for the movie. I figured this was a bad sign. I very seldom agree with the masses on what is considered good, so I went into Zombieland thinking I was going …

Hugh Grant is one of my favourite actors of all time, so I was looking forward to his latest movie, Did You Hear About the Morgan’s? to come out in DVD. I had heard lots of rather negative reviews about it, so I wasn’t expecting anything more than his …

As I have stated before we love to watch movies. We went to Arundel Mills Mall and saw this movie there. Rob saw it on sell at FYE in Arundel Mills and he purchased it to add to his collection.
Mr Woodcock stars Billy Bob Thornton, Seann …

If you are not careful and of sound mind, you will miss what this movie is actually saying. You might even have to watch it on more than one occasion to get the real meaning behind it. Here is what this movie gives and you are going to have …

Jason Goes to Hell is the ninth, and supposedly last movie in the Friday the 13th series of horror movies. The movie itself has been panned by fans because it completely disregards the other movies. In this one we are led to believe that Jason isn’t the ordinary man …

Tex Ritter starred as Tex Martin in The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen, a typical singing western for its generation. In this movie, he uses a guitar quite a bit. This movie does indeed have several songs in it.
The drama begins when Tex and his current sidekick …

My kids and I loved Rio. I fell I love with the bright fun colors and the excellent animation while my kids fell in love with the story. When they saw that Rio 2 was coming out, they were so excited, but were really sad when my husband and …

I was not planning to watch this movie. Channel surfing brought me to the movie about ten or fifteen minutes into it. I decided to give it a moment, check things out before surfing on to another channel. But I stayed and watched the whole thing, and loved every …

“The Skeleton Key” was the first movie that was not a romance comedy which I had the pleasure of seeing Kate Hudson in. I hate romance comedies, and so seeing her in another movie which was not a romance comedy, especially a horror movie, was very refreshing to me. …

The Count of Monte Cristo, 2002. Apart from the book, this movie is decent. If you have not read the novel by Alexander Dumas and are not familiar with the story, you will probably enjoy it. However, the fans of the book will just shake their heads. The story …

Ella Enchanted is somewhat of a cross between Cinderella and Shrek. We have a modernized fantasy world with ogres, elves, giants, taxi carriages and man-powered wooden escalators. And we have a teenage girl Ella who lives with a step mother and (of course) her two evil daughters. However, there …

As someone who has some interest in film, I always find it especially fascinating to read up on the accomplishments of female movie directors. I found the movie “A ma Soeur” as it is named in French by doing research on the French director Catherine Breillat. Between being curious about …

I think Robert De Niro did a great job in the movie Cape Fear. I really like Cape Fear because it’s a different type of horror. This movie is not about ghosts or monsters, but it is instead about a prison inmate named Max that wants revenge. He was sent …

Known to be the first “slasher” film. It is about some sorority girls who get stalked by a psychopathic killer during christmas time. One by one they fall victim to his intelligent way of tricking them into his hands. It begins very promising with suspenseful opening sequence. But from …

It is now finally official, the once boy wizard who is known as the one to destroy Voldemort has come to the end of his legacy. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 2 came out in 2011 and was expected to be nothing short of a magical and …

The movie “Constantine” was actually a movie based upon a comic book called “Hellblazer” the only thing was at the time I saw the movie advertising to be released in theatres, I thought it looked familiar but I didn’t relate it to that same comic. At the time I …

I am reviewing the Man with the Twisted Lip, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. In this episode, Holmes is hired by the wife of a man who has seemed to have been murdered. …

Ewww to this DVD movie, Captivity. I really find it disgusting, and there’s a term that needs to be thrashed really; torture-porn or something. It is about this psycho kidnapping this particular model, Jennifer, played by Elisha Cuthbert. She is gorgeous and blonde at that, and …

I am reviewing the movie, Lean on Me, starring Morgan Freeman. This movie is based upon actual events. Morgan Freeman plays a free spirited, gifted, dedicated teacher, who tries his best to teach his kids whatever he can. When he loses his job, he moves on …

This is a good adaptation of the classic novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, far better than the 1995 version that for some reason turns the main character into a blonde and changes the ending. (Moviemakers, do us all a favor: if you want to change stuff, write your own …

It’s quite sad that Tom Cruise ain’t acting in movies as gorgeously good as Jerry Maguire anymore. I caught this movie when it was first released on theaters and then later caught it on again on DVD. I was not bored at all watching it.
The storyline …

Transformers 2 is full of action, adventure, and plenty of comedy.
After seeing the first of the two movies I was extemely impressed, and expected even better from the second. It was even better than expected.
The movie is about a young boy who has the knowledge needed for an evil …

In what could be considered by parents a nightmare of a movie, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle has been, and continues to be one of the most popular comedy movies amongst teens and 20 somethings.
In this film, roommates Harold struggles daily for just one lucky break when …

Considering it had Paris Hilton in the starring role and the fact it came straight to DVD, I had a lot of doubts about the film The Hottie & The Nottie.
After all, this is 2008, you would think a movie that focuses just on a woman’s looks rather than …
