I’m not sure what my daughter’s obsession with Halloween is but I will admit the DVD does …

One of the most classical musicals of all time is the marvelous My Fair Lady with Rex Harrison and Audrey Hepburn. I can’t even imagine anyone but Harrison in this movie. I’m so used to his style of talk-singing that it all seems very logical and natural …
Belle (historical drama movie)
I love watching historical movies, and that is why I was so eager to see “Belle” after I had seen the trailer only months before it was released. What piqued my interest about it even more was that it was supposed to be based on the story revolving around a …
The Other Guys (2010)
To be frank, 2010 hasn’t been a great year for comedy. Most of the billed “comedy” movies have been stale and unfunny, and the ones that are occasionally funny are better characterized as dramas. While The Other Guys isn’t a cinematic masterpiece, it is the funniest movie of the …

This was a 2000 A&E television production, and is now available on DVD. The movie is an interweaving of two stories: the 18th century invention of the marine chronometer by John Harrison, and the 20th century restoration of the timepieces by Rupert Gould.
I’m going to give this movie sort …

Man of Steel, movie
I first saw this movie in a beautiful theater in downtown Los Angeles. The theatre was extravagantly stunning, but the movie undoubtedly one-upped it. I sat in the theater in tears after it ended, but laughing through the emotions at the witty ending. I loved how it provided a …
Stone 2010 movie
One of those things that made this movie enjoyable was that you watch a man who finds its inner equilibrium. The irony is that he does not know how. At one point, Stone says, “Told you, I could not Explain It”, speaking of the total change he experienced. Indeed, …

Film The Bank Job
The Bank Job is a retread of the tried and tested, ‘caper film with likable London criminals’ formula, in the same vain as the Italian Job, but with more banking, and no Michael Caine.
Now, although it has no new ideas there are good things about this film, not the …
Independence day
Well, what an intriguing mystery on how the aliens (if there are) may look like was given a hypothetical description in this movie. Yes, it is possible that our technology here on earth may be a little rusty but perhaps those aliens could have done something about their …
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, …
