Last night when I went to watch “Into the Woods”, I was excited with expectations of watching a splendid musical. Although it includes scenes of great quality, I felt it lacks the strength to be called an exceptional movie. It’s a good musical, but the evolution of the characters …

Fiesta is a small musical film from 1941 that features Ann Ayars as Cholita and Jorge ‘George’ Negrete as José. The opening song is inviting and very upbeat; I enjoyed it greatly.

I’ve always been a Beatles fanatic. As such, seeing their songs come to life on the big screen is a real treat. Usually, I find such attempts sacrilegious, but this time, I have to say the actors pulled it off. I wouldn’t have patronized an album …

This weekend I sought out to see Price of Persia with my father, stepmother, and 12 year old stepsister. I stepped into the theatre with high expectations due to the hype that had been circulating about this movie for months. I don’t think it really hit me until after …

Easter Parade is a very nice holiday musical with a tip top cast that includes Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, and Peter Lawford. It’s full of good songs, including the title number which is, naturally, the centerpiece of the motion picture.
Oddly, though, I’m not a huge fan of Easter …

Erin Brockovich is a movie based on a true story and this is one gutsy lady that I truly admire and that I think most women should try and be as independent as her.
It’s not easy to juggle work with so many children at one time and this …

Forever Lulu is a 2000 movie that took forever to be released. In fact, the independent picture never did make a real theatrical run and was ultimately released on DVD. However, while foreign titles went under the film name of Forever Lulu, in the United States, the …

The movie 10 catapulted Bo Derek into a household name. Bo is steamy hot in this film, although the acting leaves much to be desired. I like 10 because it’s cool to see an icon when she was young and very, very beautiful. Bo Derek can’t act worth a …

Winter Passing was a beautifully made piece depicting the life of a young actress who must come to terms with her father, who has created a pseudo-family around him. While incredibly well-done, the truth is I found it rather depressing. The relationship with her father heals, the discomfort she …

Well, I finally got a chance to watch the movie Rambo this past weekend.
When I started it, I honestly wasn’t expecting too much. There are way too many movies that try to remind us of 1980s films and I figured this would be one of those attempts (like Rock …

2 hours and 42 minutes is a lot of time, and if I am a productive person I would be able to do so much other than just sitting in my comfortable chair watching a german-language movie called “Toni Erdmann”.
Truth be told, the first 10 minutes is a real struggle …

In the early parts of this movie, I found it hard to stay tuned as the dialog was dull and boring and there was not much to hold on to that would keep me interested in watching this movie, but I waited patiently with hopes that it would pick …

I will start by saying the film “Remember Me”, starring Robert Pattinson, Pierce Brosnan, Chris Cooper, and Emilie de Ravin, is surprisingly good. On the surface, it contains a cliche plot, one of a boy who dates a girl to get back at someone else but ultimately falls …

I love watching historical movies, or movies whose settings take place at memorable times during human history. This is why I was very intrigued by the description of the movie “Love Field” when I had seen it on the television guide when I was looking on what was going …

I’ll be honest. The only reason I went to this movie is to hear one of the songs in the credits by my favourite artist. I went into this movie kind of just wanting it to be the end soon because I hated animated movies or anything like it. …

Wow, I really really loved this movie. I knew that any movie starring Ellen Page would be a really good film. The first movie that I saw her in was Hard Candy, a really brutal film about a child molester who meets up with this …

A very entertaining and vivid look into the stereo typical African American family as it shows how family ties are brought together and strengthened through the use of food. I have always heard the saying that goes ‘the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach’. Now whether …

The best words to describe the movie “Minutemen” is a teen version of the movie “Back to the Future” based in high school. Although this is another Disney movie with a high school story, one can never compare this movie to the very much renowned and loved “High School …

It’s settled; Vincent Price is my favorite actor of all time. There is no actor, past or present, quite like him. In this remake of 1933’s ‘Mystery of the Wax Museum,’ an enthused Price plays Professor Jarrod, a brilliant artist whose wax sculptures seem like real people. …

Hide And Seek was shown on my local TV channel and if it’s acting by Robert De Niro, I always make it a point to watch. This movie also sees the little kid, Dakota Fanning (think she had acted with Tom Cruise as well), I give this story 10 …

I love Anne Hathaway, and I love Steve Carrell even more. Steve has shown so much potential through the years, his big break from Bruce Almighty made his career soar so much and I truly believe he deserves it. Anne is such a beauty and a professional actress who …

Just having watched the movie “The Dark Knight”, I’d say Heath Ledger is a wonderful actor! He did a great job pulling of the character of Joker in the movie. He is brilliant, and I always knew he is a good one when I saw his previous movies, but …
