You, Me & Dupree-Movie
Went to watch Pirates Of Carribean, but again I landed up in the theatre in odd time. I miss the movies many a times due to the start timings and wish to watch a movie from the start. This time I didnt want to go back home without watching …
Girl Positive movie
I’ve honestly never sat down to watch Lifetime movies before. But, after seeing the movie Girl Positive, I think I’ll be doing that more often.
At first, I didn’t know what to think about the movie, which is meant to be an honest portrayal of how the HIV virus can …
Flesh for Frankenstein movie
This is supposed to be a more artsy depiction of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Paul Morrissey, perhaps the weirdest filmmaker ever, directed this. It stars Udo Kier as dr Frankenstein, the rest are mostly amateurs. I don’t know if I would call this film artsy, but it certainly was …
Hotel Rwanda
I can vaguely remember news reports in the nineties when I was a child of war and genocide taking place in the African province of Rwanda between the Hutu and the Tutsis. I was about six years old when all of this was taking place, so I was blissfully …

10 Things I Hate About You Movie
Wow…this movie is just great! With Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles as main actor/actress, a great script (come on! the storyline is based on Shakespeare’s The Taming of The Shrew!) nothing could go wrong, and nothing did went wrong!
Of course, this movie is much more suitable for gals - …
The Perfect Storm
I did not remember that this movie existed until I saw it being aired on a cable television channel just recently. I can remember that at the time it was release in theatres, it was advertised as one of the bigger movies and now I doubt that many people …
After Earth, movie
I had such high expectations for this movie after seeing the commercial with Will Smith and his son in it, since I love Will Smith’s acting in I am Legend, Hancock, and him and his son in The Pursuit of Happiness. I knew the basic summary of the movie …
Enemy of the State movie
I had always heard about the movie “Enemy of the State” but I had not watched it until a couple weeks ago when I saw the movie being aired on one of my relatives cable television channels. I think the reason why I ignored it at first was probably …

A Life Less Ordinary
“A Life Less Ordinary” represents the early stages of two great actors; Cameron Diaz and Ewan McGregor. This is a very funny romantic comedy were we can see the great talents of the then almost unknown actors. In this movie, they are both sporting a trendy spiky haircut. We …
The Time Travelers Wife movie
I found this movie to be too odd to be very good. The thought behind the whole movie was very unique but because of so many weird things it just made the movie not as good as it could have been.
The first thing I didn’t like was that …

The Barbie Diaries
Even though I’m already a grown up, I love watching cartoons, animated movies and especially Barbie! I’ve watched The Barbie Diaries like countless times and just am not bored with it at all. This is just like your typical chick flick; only animated version.
Barbie and her friends …
Resurrecting The Champ (PG-13, 2007) movie
I had heard of this film. But when I saw that Josh Hartnett and Samuel Jackson starred in it, I figured it was one of those movies in which the black man portrays a lost, but heroic figure. And the white man comes to save the day …

Come Back, Little Sheba movie
Come Back, Little Sheba is a classic black and white film made in 1952. When I first heard about this movie, I really thought Come Back, Little Sheba was about little more than a lost dog and his heartbroken owner. Come Back, Little Sheba is beautifully done, even though …

HOP movie
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. …
Half Light (R, 2006) movie

Scotiabank Theater in Vancouver, Canada
I have to say this cinema outlet is very hard to find. While in the Vancouver Airport, or the YVR on December 26, 2009, I searched the Web for the nearest cinema in which to watch Avatar in digital 3D for the second time.
The Scotiabank Theater come up …

You Don’t Mess with the Zohan

Zohan is …

The Woman In Black Movie
It is always nice for me to remind myself of the classical English works, especially those who have a slight horror twist. But even better is for the reader, such as myself, to see everything on the screen where the images from the book come to life , and …
Movie Without Reservations
We have a lot of DVD’s and we enjoy going to the movies, it is a great past time. We recently purchased a movie called Without Reservations, starring Catherine Zeta Jones, what a beautiful woman.

Thor (movie 2011)
Thor…Thor…Thor…

God of thunder (that’s the only thing that I could remember though), in the movie he also …
Mangal Pandey - movie
Mangal pandey, one of the so-called most awaited movies, disappoints the viewer miserably. It is slow and dragging, boring us to death. The story line is weak. You don’t even feel interested, leave alone inspired. The item number in it is disgusting!Rani looks unconvincing as a prostitue and Amisha …
The Movie Annie (1999 version)
I grew up with the Original Annie. I loved the movie and the “Tomorrow ” song still plays in my head from time to time. So when I saw the 1999 version on television, I decided to watch it. I had never seen it before and thought …

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
I am of the opinion that this movie is one of the greatest drug stories ever told. Johnny Depp and Benicio DelToro star in Terry Gilliam’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s cult novel. The movie opens with the two lead characters Raoul Duke (Depp) and his attorney (Del Toro), …
Meet the Spartans
Normally, I like movies that spoof other movies; everything from Scary movie to pretty much anything made by Mel Brooks. But, after watching Meet the Spartans last night, I no longer can say I like all movies in that genre.
The thing about Meet the Spartans is it had the …

Movie Public Enemies
I am a huge Johnny Depp fan, and also love historically-based movies.

This is without doubt one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen! I admit when I checked it out I had never heard of it before, but I saw it stared Leslie Nielsen and I had always found him very funny in the “Naked Gun” movies. The DVD box …
Days of our lives
