It seems whenever an idea for a movie has some success, there are a bunch of other movies ready to copy that success by keeping roughly the same plot, just a few minor changes.
Fool’s Gold is a good example of this. While not a terrible movie, the idea of …

I had heard about this movie coming out in movies. But I deliberately skipped over it. I thought to myself: How in the world can a movie about a parking deck be scary? How is this going to go over, I asked myself. …

Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner is just a fabulous movie, rich in theme and substance. No matter how many times I watch this 1967 classic, it still touches my soul.
The performances just can’t be matched. Hepburn and Tracy, in their last coupling together on film, are dynamic, …

I actually didn’t know what to expect of the movie Slumdog Millionaire. I was worried that it would be a bollywood type production, which I was not really interested in seeing. I was also a bit skeptical on just how good a movie starring actors in their first large …

I watched the movie “Knowing” online a little after it was released in theatres since at the time I had no money to see it. Sometimes when I watch movies online, the movie does not appear to be half as good as it seems when I watch it on …

Waitress is a very good movie, and when I watched it, I enjoyed it. This is a movie about drama, and about people. How different characters in this life makes an impact on a pie-maker, acted by Keri Russell. She played the character Jenna.

Teeth is this incredibly odd little movie that is partly a horror movie and part something I don’t know. I watched it, expecting it to be a straight horror movie with a little humor thrown in. Now that I’ve seen it all the way through, I couldn’t tell you …

I been watching the Transporter series for quite a while already. I was clearly impressed on how cool was the “Frank Martin” character.
In this third series, it involves Frank transporting a kidnapped daughter of a Ukranian government official. Clearly for a start, I had difficulties catching up on …

I really enjoyed this movie about teenage cheerleaders and the competition they enter to be in a music video. While the movie may seem to be about cheerleading and winning, the story also has a great heart about friendship.
The cheerleading moves in this movie are amazing. I have …

Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.
From someone who watched the likes of Rashomon to My Favorite Martian on a daily rotating basis, I sadly found myself living …

What I liked most about Dead Like Me: The Escape Artist is one of the scenes at the end. Barbara Barrie appears again as Joy’s mother. The two don’t get along very well, but yet at the end, they share a calm moment. The really good …

It’s a short and simple story chronicling the lives of four survivors in a zombie infested America. Quite a shallow plot, but extremely funny. Its comedic factor is refreshing because it isn’t lewd or too slapstick.
Columbus played by Jesse Eisenberg was funny when he was alone, giving the …

Why would you make a werewolf movie with a title that evokes an Exorcist rip-off?
More Waldemar the Werewolf fun has Paul Naschy once again donning the furry costume to bring mayhem on the villagers. Only this time, it is a pretty tired exercise that misses the fun and wacky …

We were watching some of our movie channels last night and came across The House Bunny.
This is the second time I’ve watched this movie in about a year now and I have to say it is still a cute and clever concept.
Well, to be honest, the only thing clever …

I think the Indians films will be giving hollywood a run for money in few years. Dhoom-2 is a very good film, except for the few minor cliches the film is a treat to watch. Hrithik Roahan rocks even in the negative role. The film is worth watching only …

‘The September Issue’ is a feature length, fly-on-the-wall documentary about the making of the September 2007 issue of Vogue Magazine. This would be of interest to anyone wanting to see what the real Anna Wintour is like - editor-in-chief of Vogue - rather than the bitch that Meryl …

This is another great movie to add to your movie night ! It has Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes as the main leads. I think it is a sweet story of a hard working woman who realizes that she wants and deserves more out of life and finally …

Very rarely do sequels surpass there predecessors. There are some exceptions, Terminator 2, 28 Weeks Later, etc. I thought very highly of The Bourne Identity and believe that Supremacy surpasses it on every level. I was very nervous when I heard they weren’t bringing back the …

Meet the Parents was a classic. Meet the Fockers did not enjoy as much critical success as the original, but it was still thoroughly enjoyable. Unfortunately, the film to complete the trilogy is as stale and pointless as any of the other third movies you can remember.
Greg and …

A crazy scientist is creating an army of freaks in this supernatural horror film by David Cronenberg, perhaps one of the most disgusting films I ever saw in this genre, but also one of the most overwhelming. The tension is slowly built up and culminates in a macabre final …

It took me a while to get around to seeing Perfect Stranger, starring Halle Berry. When I saw the previews, I immediately thought there would be gratuitous nudity or sex scenes, like in Monster\’s Ball, or other films featuring the pretty actress. But this one was …

Chappie is an excellent follow-up to District 9 and Elysium and is one of the better transhuminism films that are out today. It delivers complex ideas about molding the human mind and also attempts to imagine the possibilities of artificial intelligence.

First of all, this movie will tug at your …

Can a suddenly blind director make a movie? This problem is the basis of the plot of Woody Allen’s film. It offers many attacks on Hollywood and its stampeded products. However, it was interesting to observe the creator who finds himself in a critical situation. How will he behave? How …

Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 14 was a funny episode in its own way. It talks about falling in love at first sight. It would be hard to believe though that anyone would truly fall in love at first sight with a holodeck character though. However maybe in …

I went to see Spider Man 3 last weekend with some friends. I guess I have to say first off that I’m not a huge fan of Spider Man, but like it well enough to see the movies. I liked the second movie better than the first, but I …
