The Dark Knight (2008 Film)
The 2008 film “The Dark Knight”, starring a terrific Christian Bale as Batman, and the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, was even better than the first movie, “Batman Begins”. When in comparison, I feel that “The Dark Knight” has so much more power behind it’s actors, even more …
Erin Brokovich Movie
In my opinion, Erin Brokovich is by far the best movie Julia Roberts has ever made. It’s great to see her star in something much more relevant and worthwhile than so many of her other offerings.
It tells the story of (no surprises here), Erin Brokovich, who is a …
The Interview (comedy movie)
With all the controversy surrounding the movie “The Interview” I knew I just had to watch it from the very day I heard about it. Therefore, I waited until Sony Pictures made it available for my viewing by streaming it on Youtube, and frankly it was just as I expected. …
Movie : Dance of The Dead
Masters of Horror entry Dance of The Dead is actually one of my favorites. When you read some of the reviews on this it gets roughed up pretty bad but I actually felt it had some good characters, an interesting backstory and a horrific conclusion. I think …

Me, Myself & Irene (starring Jim Carrey and Renee Zellweger)
I watched Me, Myself & Irene 2 times actually and the first time I watched, I didn’t really have a clue as to what the story is all about because I wasn’t concentrating at all. During that time, the movie story was shown on my local TV and I …
Reign Over Me (2007)
Director: Mike Binder. Featuring Adam Sandler, Don Cheadle, Jada Pinkett Smith, Liv Tyler, Saffron Burrows and Donald Sutherland.
I thought it was a really good movie, although definitely not easy to watch. When I saw the trailer, I thought it was going to be more on a comedy side. The fact …
Coneheads
Coneheads was an alright movie. I think it was kind of cheesey and wacky yet funny. The big heads on the cone head people were pretty funny looking. I also liked the acting and voices of the characters in the film. I think the storyline was not very good. It …
Ocean’s Thirteen
Ocean’s Thirteen was one of the most anticipated “threequels” this year. Among a myriad of third instalments, it was one of those that were expected to improve on their predecessors and it delivers well.
The clever and thrilling plot revolves around Danny Ocean’s attempt at avenging senior Ocean member Reuben’s …

Recently I visited the local artsy video store and rented the DVD “Good Evening, Mr. Wallenberg” It is a Swedish film in Swedish, but much of it was in German with English subtitles. Directed by Kjell Grede and released in 1990.
I was extremely impressed by it. I must confess …
Netflix
Netflix is one of the latest fads in America today. It is a modern technological way to rent movies. You no longer have to drive to town to pick out a movie which is a great convince when gas is so high. Instead you can just log onto your …
Vanishing Point
I watched a movie the other night that I really couldn’t get into at all. It was called Vanishing Point and featured some actors I had never heard of. I don’t usually discriminate when it comes to independent or B list actors, if you can act, i’ll watch your …
Little Buddha movie
A film by Bernardo Bertolucci who is mostly known for his giant epic Novecento. This is one of his latest films and tells the story of Siddaharta who goes through a spiritual journey to finally become Buddha. It seems to me Bertolucci isn’t any longer the talented filmmaker he …
Cool World (1992)
Cool World, hmmm, what is ther that can be said about this movie that is any way, shape or form a good thing? This movie came to us as viewers with such high expectations and with a new thought of actually combining the human element with animation. I was …
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang film
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a hoot and a half! It’s one of the best family films ever. I saw it numerous times in the theater as a child, have viewed it many times on TV, and finally purchased the DVD, which I watch repeatedly. It’s …
Thor: The Dark World Movie
After I watched the first movie about Thor - the superhero who comes from another world, wields a hammer as his weapon and is basically almost immortal it was somewhat interesting to me as a concept. When I watched that movie I was sure …

Zoolander
Watch Zoolander and you will go crazy laughing like mad. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson star in this and this is such a funny movie if I’m not mistaken during the early 2000-2003, not sure which period.
However, do not take too serious note of the political issues …

Slacker Uprising
If there is anyone who does not know Micheal Moore is a Democratic film maker who focuses on things that are happening in the field of politics. I have been a fan of his every since he made the 9/11 movie which I thought was very informative and I …
Mighty Ducks
I was watching movies last night on TV (the baby had a late night) and came across Mighty Ducks. God, I hate that movie and regret not being able to get the remote to change the channel.
When it first came out, I was in college near Minnesota and can …
Death Proof
I loved Pulp Fiction, I loved Kill Bill, and I love grindhouse films. I hate Death Proof. I like what Quentin Tarantino was aiming for while making the movie; capturing all of the classic grindhouse car chase scenes, hot girls, and fighting, but overall, it could have been so …
The Forth Kind film
I went to see this film with a bunch of my friends. We had seen the advert and thought it looked quite good.
The film is based on true events which takes it to a scarier level. The majority of the film is re-enacted however it shows a lot …
Man of the House
I am reviewing the Disney movie, Man of the House, starring Chevy Chase and Jonathan Taylor Thomas. This movie is a classic. It is about a little boy (Thomas) whose father leaves he and his mother at a young age. As the little boy grows up, he and …
The Perks of Being a Wallflower (movie)
I’m one of those people who is a big fan of independent films, but for some reason when I saw a trailer of this movie a few months ago I wasn’t very interested in it. The fact that Emma Watson and Logan Leerman played two of the main characters …
Fast and Furious Movie
I was really excited when this movie came out, it features the whole original team from the first movie and I was so excited that I watched this on the first day it showed. However it was all hype and the excitement was done just when Michelle Rodriguez died …
My Best Friend’s Girl movie
My Best Friend’s Girl from 2008 is a disaster. The only reason I watched this thing was because I noticed a listing in the credits for Patrick Swayze that referred to this movie. He was given ’special thanks’ along with a few other performers. I knew …
Roll Bounce (2005 movie)
I, for one, believe that each should stick to what they can do…rappers rap, singers sing, dancers dance, actors act, and so on. When they try to do things that they know nothing of, they make a fool of themselves. Now, Bow wow is no stranger to the acting …

Bridesmaids comedy
Bridesmaids is a film that has been out for a while now, and I have been dying to see it. This weekend, I finally got around to it, and I must say that it caused me to laugh harder and more often than any other film in recent memory. …
Prozac Nation (movie)
“Prozac Nation” was one of those movies that I didn’t know about until very long after when I had seen it on cable television. The only reason why I even watched it at the time was because I was still fascinated with the actress Christina Ricci, and wanted to …
Movie 21
This movie is one of my favorite. Any person that enjoys the movies about bank robbery and hacking type of movies will truly love this film. I have always enjoyed gambling and like many individuals have tried to beat the casinos by trying many different systems. This movie tells …

Two Came Back (1997 Film)
The 1997 Lifetime TV Movie, “Two Came Back” was a large disappointment. Starring a young Melissa Joan Hart and Jonathan Brandis, this film was a serious flop and didn’t do much to capture the audience’s attention at all. While Melissa Joan Hart has been a actress that I have …
300 (movie)
This was definitely a man’s movie. Rocky with a sword times three hundred. It was over the top, overflowing with testosterone both in the battlefield and at home. It reminded me a lot of Gladiator, with just a darker feel to it. The way it was filmed was very …
Inception Movie (2010)
The last movie I saw was Inception (2010). It stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levit (Arthur), Ellen Page (Ariadne),Tom Hardy (Eames),Ken Watanabe(Saito) Dileep Rao (Yusuf) and Cillian Murphy (Robert Fischer, Jr.). This is by-far the best mind bending movie I have seen in a long time.
I think …
Back To The Future
Everyone wishes they could go back in time to straighten out family disfunctions. But as this movie shows, if you aren’t too careful, things could turn out worse than before.
This tight, well written script by Bob Zemeckis and Bob Gale, who teamed up previously on 1941, was a joy …
Movie Cold Case
Though there are no stars, Cold Case has an effective chemistry in its cast selection. Out of the multitude of cop shows, this show is unique in its absence of angry detectives that seem to be prevalent. Also, the use of flashbacks is well practiced and keeps …
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Movie
After the success of Transformers in 2007, I couldn’t wait to see what they would do with the Transformers next. To be honest, I loved and hated Transfromers Revenge of the Fallen. For many different reasons. I did not think that Revenge of the Fallen was as good or …
