I watched the Mechanic yesterday and I really loved it. Just like other Jason Statham movies, it really delivers: it is action packed, easy to watch, exciting, really keeping you on the edge of your seat.
What was unusual, and what I really liked about this movie, unlike …

I saw ‘Watchmen’ at a local IMAX theatre and the film really scores a 100% rating for presentation. It’s slick, glossy and packed with imaginative set pieces and special effects. The story on the other hand leaves a lot to be desired. I never read the graphic novel by …

Broadcast News tells the tale of three industrious players in the television news business: Jane (Hunter), the driven, nose-to-the-grindstone news producer; Aaron (Brooks), the hands-on, genius field reporter, whom Jane has worked closely with for many years; Tom (Hurt), the handsome but …

“The Prestige” is a dazzling, entertaining, smart, and mind-blowing film. It is a rare combination of a fun, enjoyable, popcorn movie and a serious, well-done, cinematic film. “The Prestige” sucks you in and doesn’t ever let go. As soon as you see it, …

Today I had gone out with a couple of friends and decided to watch a movie. We had arrived at the Scotiabank Theatre and looked upon the movie listings and decided to watch Step Up 3D. So we bought our tickets and went into the theatre. The movie starts …

Friday night was our family movie night and, as we normally do, I made sure we had an animated film lined up. This time around, however, I gave my daughter a choice between The Iron Giant (a movie I have yet to watch) and a newer film called A …

Trois 2: Pandora’s Box (2002) was tragic; not in the sense that it was a tragedy, but that it was a TERRIBLE movie. It was one of the movies that is almost painful to watch. I found myself just shaking my head throughout the movie; that …

‘The Ghost and The Darkness’ is based on an amazing true story. In 1896, an Irish engineer named John Patterson, played by Val Kilmer, was sent by the British government to build a railway in East Africa. Leaving behind his pregnant wife, Patterson came to Tsavo; East Africa determined …

A movie that I can remember impacted the way I felt about life for years was called “Pay it Forward”. I’m not exactly sure when it was released, but I remember that the first time I watched it was when I was in high school and I had seen …

Taare Zameen Par is perhaps the greatest bollywood movie that I have ever watched. It is a movie about a little boy, Ishaan, who is dyslexic, but his parents fail to realise this. As the story progresses you cannot help but laugh at all of the mischief …

Mystic River is a movie about three friends who are close when they are young and then something terrible happens. Mystic River is another movie that changes around so much it is hard to follow at times, but the plot is fantastic and Sean Penn as Jimmy is excellent. …

When I think back to the movies made in the 1990s, I can think of quite a few good ones. And, then I can think of ones made by Pauley Shore that weren’t so good but still somewhat entertaining.
Shore will never win any awards for his performance in the …

Even though I watched the movie “The Sixth Sense” when I was about eleven or twelve years old, I can still remember it as though it were just yesterday, since at the time is scared me a little and I thought the twist in the plot was unusual. It …

The horror…the utter horror.
Not!!
This is a classic case of a mind at waste. How could they even consider making this movie and worse expect viewers to want to watch it. Well. as dumb as it is, I stood the torture and i watched it; and horrified I was. You …

This movie will now and forever be one of my favorite horror movies. It’s a true classic. This is based in Antarctica where a bunch of scientists are doing some experiments. They uncover a dark terror that seems to evade them at every turn. It first starts off with …

I am completely and wholeheartedly in love with this film. And that’s because this movie is all about satire and parody. But what is even more enticing is the the subject matter. Politically incorrect in its delivery, this movie is really a tongue-in-cheek “guide” for …

I enjoyed this movie so much because it was a great learning experience for me. Muhammad Ali was always a name I was familiar with but did not know alot about. I decided to watch this film because I am a fan of Will Smith and was curious about …

Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban contains spoilers.
I first watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban on ABC Family in March 2008. Even though it took a little getting used to because it looked so different from the first two films, it has …

Jumanji was one of the movies I wanted to see in the theater, but wasn’t able to. From 1995, it stars Robin Williams, Bonnie Hunt, Kirsten Dunst, Bradley Pierce, Adam Hann-Byrd, and Laura Bell Bundy. It’s actually a nice adventure for children who aren’t afraid of monsters …

I haven’t watched the unedited version (as in, actual movie not one edited for TV) of Police Academy in years. But, after watching it again last weekend, I have to say I now realize just how good it was.
Other movies have tried to put together an insane group of …

This movie, created by Netflix, is a live action take on the anime Death Note. I will say right now that the anime version is easily one of my favorite shows, and when I heard that Netflix was creating this I was excited but didn’t really expect much from it. …

Norbit is a movie starring Eddie Murphy and Thandie Newton and… Eddie Murphy? That’s right, in this new movie Eddie Murphy plays a kind, nice young man who had a rough life at the Golden Wonton Restaurant and he also plays a crazy, obese lady named Rasputia. The basic …

Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol is the 4th installment of the famous spy action series with Tom Cruise starring as Ethan Hunt.
The beginning of the story finds the IMF top agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) in a prison in Moscow and a couple of other IMF agents are in …

A totally demented Paul Naschy film that, to my knowledge, was the last of the shambling, old school style mummy movies featuring a rampaging, bandaged monster.
Paul plays the role of the Mummy as well as the Mummy’s evil assistant and he does so to the hilt. A very violent …

Bowling for Columbine is a documentary about the violence in the United States, which primarily focuses on the school shooting that took place at Columbine High School in Colorado. The title is a sarcastic explanation for why the two teens did what they did, blaming the bowling class they …

This movie, The Hollywood Mom’s Mystery, seemed like it would be a lot more interesting than it was. It’s a crazy set up, though, with some nonsense about adoption and motherhood. Justine Bateman stars as wife, mom, and writer Lucy Freers who turns sleuth to find the …

“A Guy Thing” is definitely the movie that made the actor, Jason Lee be noticed to the general public. I personally watched him act in another movie “Kissing a Fool” and he was great, however I prefer best his interpretation of Paul Morse in the hilarious comedy “A Guy …

What are they thinking?! It’s already worse that some of the comic books were made to a movie. But Dragonball? The best cartoon when I was 13. I can’t accept the fact that they made this cartoon a movie. I’ve already seen the preview of the movie. They can’t …

Hitch - can be summed up with one word - hilarious ! Will Smith and Kevin James are side achingly funny ! Hitch’s {Will Smith } job is to get the girl of any man’s dreams to fall in love with him in 3 days ! It works like …

When I was fourteen, this movie scared me. And I felt then, and now, that I don’t scare easily. Very few movies even give me the chills. But Poltergeist scared me, and at the same time thrilled me. It became somewhat of both an embarrassment and a disappointment that …

The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie is probably the one film most people remember the director Luis Bunuel for, but actually, The exterminating angel tells a very similar story and was made about ten years earlier by Bunuel. It tells the story of a group of rich people who …

All of us girls were so keen to watch he’s just not that into you, I guess subconsciously us though maybe it will brush some light on watch guys really think.
I really liked the upfront message of the title and it is exactly that, if you’re trying to figure …

2010 was the year of survival films. The best one was the Slumdog Millionaire’ award winning director’s following film, based on the actual, tragic and yet unevenly proud and awe-inspiring story of Aaron Ralston.
The protagonist is a passionate, courageous and dangerously reckless climber who has broken …

Election with Matthew Broderick, Reese Witherspoon, and Chris Klein.
This movie had some really hot hooks that kept me in rapt attention. It was a strange type of comedy in that it was subtle, yet effective. I especially enjoyed the cast and could feel the …

Serendipity is so beautiful, it’s almost cathartic. One of the loveliest movies I’ve seen.
The movie is about how if two people are destined to be together, luck brings them together. Kate Beckinsale (Sarah in the film) plays the sweet “believer” perfectly, while John Cusack (Jonathan in the film) …

I think that just about everyone remembers Sky Kids and Sky Kids 2. It seemed to be really popular for awhile and then just died out. It as not long after Spy Kids 2 came out that the previews for Shark Boy and Lava Girl came out.
Let me …

“Up in the Air” the 2009 film starring George Clooney, Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick proved to be not only a touching tale of finding the meaning of how to spend your life, but a depressing realization that sometimes it doesn’t work out as planned when you give yourself …

One of the movies that I watched recently was an action and adventure movie called “The Green Hornet” that starred the actor Seth Rogen, and an Asian actor who did not seem familiar to me. When I first saw the movie trailer on youtube earlier on this …

OK, I know I should like Jack Black. But, I just can�t seem to find any respect for him.
The problem I have is he�s one dimensional. He can�t do drama or action. It has to be comedy. Even when he tries to be serious, you can�t help but think …

I think this movie fell into the sophomore trap—”it wasn’t as good as its predecessor. There is a story though, which is good. Actually, there are many stories going on but they are not too heavy to get the viewer confused. Not much thinking required actually, which after all …

The Exorcism of Emily Rose is definitely the scariest movie I’ve ever seen in my life and that’s saying alot because I don’t get easily scared by horror movies. I know in my mind that horror movies that feature monsters like Freddy Krueger from Nightmare on Elm Street and …

I wanted to write about Avatar while it’s still fresh in my mind. I watched it on December 24, 2009 for a hefty fee of $14.99 (that’s how much it costs to watch a full-blown digital 3D movie these days). On second thought, this cost is not …

Tron Legacy is probably the best 3D movie I have ever seen. The graphics and the images were just awesome in this movie. But even in regular HD this movie truly does rock. If you are watching it on a home system I recommend watching it with huge speakers. You’re …

Eyes of a Stranger is a Richard Dean Anderson film from 1992 that I’ve never seen, most likely because I’m really not into murder mysteries that are scary all that much, and that’s what this film is suppose to be. Since someone gifted me with this recently, it …
