Big Daddy
I thought Big Daddy was a pretty good and funny Adam Sandler movie. I think the whole concept of him raising the kid was funny. The movie was not only funny but very touching! One thing I did not like about this movie though was that there were gay scenes …
Saw IV (Unrated, 2007) movie
I was not a fan of the Saw movies at first. But by the time the third one was due to be released, I had a newfound respect. This is because I like the way the director and writers have pulled together all three stories into one …

If you’re new from Sydney and looking for a cinema to watch a movie, then you better stop by Greater Union. I’ve been here since January 2009 and I’m having a great time. I love movies, and the first thing I asked my wife was the cinemas here. She …

“Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas” (1998 film)

Jurassic World - Sci-Fi Adventure Movie (2015)
Jurassic World is an amazing movie. Fortunately I chose to watch this movie in 3D. In 3D, you can’t help but feel slightly terrified by the roars of the dinosaurs as they attack and wreak havoc. I was hooked the entire 2 hours of the movie and can’t wait for …
The Triangle - Part 2 movie
The special effects in The Triangle, part 2 (and all parts actually), are very good and are part of the lure of what is a six-hour production. This movie or mini-series, depending on how you want to think of it, aired in 3 parts in 2005. It’s …

Requiem for a Dream
Whoever told you that this movie is a wacky comedy, they lied.
It has its amusing moments, mostly the hallucinations of Harry’s mother, but this is a dark and pretty depressing movie.
It could’ve so easily fallen into the hackneyed hammering in of the idea that “drugs are bad …
