Bone Sickness, Horror film
I might have gotten to the point in my life where zombie movies just don’t excite me anymore. Take this one, Bone Sickness, a zombie movie that might have been shot with a betamax camcorder. I have no beef with low budget movies but Bone Sickness really doesn’t do …
There will be blood
‘There will be blood’ is a good English movie. But it is also rather sad to watch this movie because the movie shows the exploitation of the lower class. Directed by Paul Thomas, the movie is a grim one. The main actor has performed well. It is not possible …
Movie Midnight Express
Midnight Express is one of the most dramatic movies I have seen. This is the true story of Billy Hayes who has been jailed for drug trafficking in Turkey. Within the walls of the prison, Billy Hayes (played by late Brad Davis) will live a lifetime nightmare. The films …
Fast Five Movie (2011)
I was excited to see this movie because my husband and I are car fanatics and this is the only movie where the sequels were good, so we were expecting quite a major comeback especially since almost the lineup is complete except for Michelle Rodriguez as Letty which I …
Untraceable
“Untraceable” is a nail biting movie with Diane Lane in one of her best roles. What is so interesting about this movie is that it has a slow beginning but, later on, it peaks up in a fast manner with a heart beating ending.
“Untraceable” is about Jennifer Marsh (Lane) …
Land Before Time movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Land Before Time. This is a timeless classic. It is a story about Little Foot the long neck, Sarah the three horn, Spike the sharp tail, Ducky the swimmer, and Peetry the flier. Each one of these characters is a dinosaur. This …
The Last Holiday Movie
The Last Holiday starring Queen Latifah was probably one of the most wonderful and uplifting movies that I have ever seen. I actually borrowed this movie from my local library. I like Queen Latifah so I thought this movie would be interesting and I have been in love with …
Paprika (Animated Film)
Fucking with our minds (pardon my french) is one of the best things that Satoshi Kon is known for. He has brought us numerous mindfuck animated movies such as Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, and Tokyo Godfathers, and now here is bringing us yet again another mindfucking movie: madhouse presents …
Enough movie
I am reviewing the movie, Enough, starring Jennifer Lopez. I am not usually a fan of Jennifer Lopez, but I must say that she did a great job in this movie. I usually don’t like any movies in which she stars, but this one is exceptional. …
Death At A Funeral (Movie)
This movie is called Death At A Funeral and the title is very funny and tricky, and I knew it was going to be a comedy because almost all really good actors who play comedy are here like Martin Lawrence, Chris Rock, Danny Glover, Keith David, Peter Dinklage, Tracy …
Red Box DVD Rental Kiosk
What initially began appearing inside Giant and Shoppers grocery marts, the “Red Box,” are now emerging in increasing numbers and outside convenient stores, such as the 7-Eleven in walking distance of my home. These tall, red-colored ATM-like DVD rental kiosks provide the customer with an inexpensive and convenient …

Wanted film
Wanted is a movie about a group of assassins, cool group of people with trainings and camp and all. Angelina Jolie, as usual plays a beautiful woman with a cold heart, full of actions and great body. James McAvoy, kind of a new comer in movies, and …
Movie The Terminal
I read so much good reviews about this romantic movie that ended up with very high expectations while watching. While I must admit that Tom Hanks is simply great, this movie cannot be classified with a great romantic ending.It seems that even the director of this movie Spielberg was …
Bridge to Terabithia
I watched Bridge to Terabithia ready to get bored and be repulsed with the little knowledge I have about the film. Thanks to false advertising (equivalent to the preview showing the CGI effects), my impression on the film beforehand was that it was going to be another-kiddy-fantasy knock-off.
Still, I …
Song of the Sea, animated film (2014)
Song of the Sea is an Irish animated film directed by Tomm Moore who previously directed the now famous Oscar nominated “The Secret of Kells”. And he’s got another winner with this film proving once again that he’s quickly becoming a big name in the animation industry.
Like his previous work, …

Happily N’Ever After
We all are familiar with Cinderella right? Well this is another version but a little of the spoof version as I may say.
I grew up listening to the happy endings of Cinderella and was even watching its cartoon series on the television. When I saw this movie I wonder …
The Thin Red Line movie
A war story by the poetic filmmaker Terrence Malick. He created the visually stunning films Days of Heaven and Badlands back in the 1970s, then he didn’t make a film until his come back with this film more than 20 years later. I don’t think it is as engaging …
Jake Spanner, Private Eye movie
Robert Mitchum starred in 1989’s Jake Spanner, Private Eye which had a unique opening of having Spanner dreaming and using excerpts from Mitchum’s movies as the dream. That was intriguing. Before the viewer has a chance to really chuckle and enjoy that, the credits start and, wow, …

See No Evil (R, 2006) movie
Horror movies these days have taken the plunge–into the cheesy. I thought “See No Evil” would be one of those films. And to a degree it is. The same character set-up applies which involves a group of teens and a creepy old house. This time …
The Haunted Mansion
I am not an Eddie Murphy fan. I wasn’t fond of him back in the days of Saturday Night Live, and I have never liked his comedy bits. He’s way too out of my comfort zone for acceptable and appropriate comedy. That said, the best thing …

In Time Movie (2011)
If only there was enough time- time to work on the concept of the movie that is! While In Time is not built on an original concept, there were still enough interesting ideas that could have made it at least a good sci-fi movie. However, the lack of planning …
Futureworld (1976) movie
Starring: Peter Fonda, Blythe Danner, Arthur Hill, Yul Brynner, and Jim Antonio.
Directed by: Richard T. Heffron.
I had no idea that there was a sequel to “Westworld”, possibly because it wasn’t all that it was cooked up to be, perhaps? Oh wait a minute, actually, it really isn’t what it’s …

Desperado movie
“Desperado” is the funny action movie that made the actors, Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek very famous in Hollywood. Hayek was hardly known in Hollywood before this movie. It seems that the director, Quentin Tarantino so much liked this movie that he personally asked to be given a small …
The Bunny Guards vs The Wicked Forces of Evil movie

The Moonstone movie
The Moonstone is an whodunit motion picture that is actually intriguing. I pretty much enjoyed it from beginning to end. The interesting thing about that is that there’s nothing magical or outstanding about the plot.
At key moments, for example, each member of the cast gives that ‘I’m …

Playboy Wet & Wild: Bottoms up

The movie Adam is very interesting. It is about an adult with Aspergers syndrome which is similar to autism or some may call it high functioning autism. This movie was unique because they portrayed a normal man, not a genius or an idiot savant, but …
