White House Down (movie)
One of the most thrilling movies that I watched in the past couple of weeks was White House Down. At first, I ignored it mostly because I had read a lot of bad reviews from both movie critics and regular people. What’s worse is that it had a fairly …
The Darling Buds of May
I had never heard of the British TV series “The Darling Buds of May” until I saw a DVD set available at our local library. Now that I have watched it, I can’t help wondering why this show is so little known; it turned out to be so good.
Based …

Gun (Bluray), 2011 action film
Famous rapper, video game hero, and now for some reason movie star and maker, 50 Cent gives us his next film entitled Gun. The decision for this movie to be a direct to DVD film was a smart one because, after a second viewing, Gun is no more than …
Bedazzled-Brendan Fraser & Elizabeth Hurley
I loved this movie because it was so funny. Who would have thought that the devil could be a comedian or so sexy. Elizabeth Hurley was great in this role because she brought a special touch to it. I enjoyed her constant antics and trickery so much. She kept …

Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi
My favorite of all the Star Wars sequels is Return of the Jedi, and that is even after I have watched all the movies the franchise has to offer, prequels included. True, there is a lot more technology and much faster pacing in the newer films, namely, Episodes …
Precious movie - Based on the novel Push by Sapphire
I read the book Push that is the novel that the movie Precious is based on first, so that I could prepare myself for what everyone told me, and the previews indicated, was going to be a difficult movie to watch. When I watched the DVD, I was very …

“Artemisia” is the 1997 Miramax biopic of Artemisia Gentileschi, a seventeenth century Italian woman painter when women were not and were not allowed to be artists. Artemisia is played by Italian actor Valentina Cervi who was unknown to me before watching the movie. She plays a young, intense woman …
I Stand Alone
What a very dark, terribly grim, and utterly nihilistic movie! This was, more or less, my initial reaction after watching Gaspar Noe’s shocking film, I Stand Alone, just recently.
Upon further reflection, though, I realized that if I were to objectively appreciate the film’s worth, I would say that it …
Titanic (Movie)
I love Titanic. I’ve seen the movie close to 30 times total since it was first released in 1998 and that includes the six times that I saw it in the theater. This is one of the few movies that made me want to learn more about the topic …
Film “Session 9″ (2001)
This was a very slow movie that I did not enjoy. The film is about a crew of asbestos removal men who are hired to clean up an old insane asylum that was shut down around 15 years before. My major complaints about this film are that …

Ironman
Before renting Ironman, I expected it to be a cliché, super-hero, comic-book movie. Even though I love anything Robert Downey Jr. does, I didn’t expect this role to show off his brilliant acting ability. I was wrong about that, and I really enjoyed this action movie, because it actually …

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is not bad of a movie, if you ask me. Starring Matthew McConaughey, the beautiful Jennifer Garner and the very talented Michael Douglas, this is a movie not to be watched for those loving romantic comedies.
There are quite a few laughable plots, especially …
Death Race movie
Discretion: Alot of violence is in this movie, not only blood (and gore in some cases), do not watch this movie if you are not ok with fist to face action, or even face to concrete/metal action. It’s loud, very loud, depending on what theatre you go to, or if …

The third time is definitely not the charm as in relates to the Transporter franchise, they should have stooped at the first one, but it seems that everyone sees the need to make a trilogy these days. This time around, Frank played by Jason Statham, is accidentally thrown into …
When Harry Met Sally
I want to review the movie when Harry met Sally because it is a long-time favourite of mine. It came out approximately 20 years ago, when I was still a teenager, and I still love it.
I love it so much because it is not a simple love story like …
The Day the Earth Stood Still movie
Some time ago, I re-watched the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still and thought it was one of the most boring alien invasion movies ever made. Despite that, I decided to give the 2008 Keanu Reeves remake a try this past weekend.
Unfortunately, while better, it wasn’t overly great …

Bob’s Busy Day movie
Bob’s Busy Day is actually a movie short, and it’s notable for one main reason. It is the debut of Bob Hope. It’s big on comedy, including physical humor, beginning with Hope’s signature big nose. He’s definitely a younger man here. He’s slimmer and that …

Predators, Movie (2010)
After ‘Scream 4′ and ‘Apollo 18′ my cinematic palate needed cleansing. Fortunately, ‘Predators’ delivered just what I was hoping for. It’s especially impressive as sequels and follow ups to the original classic haven’t fared very well.
Unlike a lot of franchise relaunches, this doesn’t reboot or retcon anything. …
