Alice in Wonderland was my favorite cartoon movie before, and I would always dream and wished I was Alice so I could eat the cookies and drink the potion that would make me smaller or bigger than my average size. I wanted to be Alice when I was a …

I had a good time watching this movie. As an actor myself, I really appreciate Sandra Bullock’s comedic talents. She’s charming, goofy, and real. I also liked that the movie doesn’t use crude humor. There is some stripping and PG-13 nudity, but I felt it …

Harvey is a delightful motion picture from 1950 that stars James Stewart and Harvey, the invisible rabbit. It’s true. The rabbit gets excellent billing in the movie.

I saw Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married?” a few years back and, although I don’t think it was a masterpiece, it was still an interesting look at husband-wife relationships.

The 2010 film “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was one in which I was leery about. Recently Nicholas Cage’s films have been sort of a letdown, but not this one. His co-star Jay Baruchel has a quirky sort of scholarly charm that makes him the perfect hero of our film. We …

I’ll be the first to admit, even as a man, I’m a sucker when it comes to romances. And I can’t say I was ‘dragged’ to the blockbuster hit Twilight, but instead voluntarily agreed to go.
With that in mind, should you see Twilight if you never read the books? …

Duma with Alexander Michaletos.

The movie …

One of my favorite movies was the first Ghostbusters movie. Even now, I think of it as a classic even though it has one of my least favorite comedians and actors in there, Bill Murray. I think one of the reasons why I appreciated it too was that, even …

I had heard of this film when it first came out…a low budget Christian movie about a high school football coach and his team. This movie turned out to be so much more than that. If you are a true believer in Jesus Christ, then this movie …

Jackie Chan is back and better …

I watched this movie with my family, but it did not turn out being a very friendly film for families. I wish that it was a better one for us to have watched, but at the same time, it was funny, and kids are used to hearing bad language …
