I did a free trial from netflix a while ago and I also did it a free trial for my cousin not to long ago. The movies took forever to get to me and her both. They are also a little more money than blockbuster. You also can’t take …

The best way to describe the movie “Breach” is a Bourne story without the action. Based on a true story, “Breach” has a great cast of actors Chris Cooper, Ryan Phillippe and Laura Linney. The true pity is that this movie was released in the same year …

Green Zone movie is based on the American invasion of Iraq and the truth behind it. I reckon its one of the best Non-Friction movie made this year and the truth behind the Iraq war has really been well told by the movie. Really liked the Matt Damon’s acting …

When one trilogy ends another one is always questioned. For the Terminator franchise it was easy to assume we didn’t see the last of Skynet. Even with a new set of actors, Salvation takes the franchise in a new direction, the future. Now we can see what is going …

I’d always wanted to see the horror film The Kindred. It was primarily because I’d seen the ad for it in the newspaper when I was a little girl. I thought it looked properly creepy. It said something about someone having a brother they didn’t know about, and it …

Not being a fan of either Rowan Atkinson (who plays Johnny English) nor a fan of James Bond, it often surprises me that this DVD version of the film is in my collection at all. Every so often when the mood is right it is taken out and …

I Am Legend with Will Smith.
This science fiction genre film is based upon the 1954 book by the same title in which some mysterious disease turns people into Vampires. This version is vastly different, yet the theme of loneliness and the daily decision about whether …

I am reviewing the Disney movie, Pocahontas. Back in the early nineties, there were a lot of good Disney movies being made. Pocahontas was one of them. Everyone knows the story of Pocahontas. A group of sailors under the command of Ratcliffe enter the land of the natives and …

I cannot even begin to explain how utterly disappointed I was with this film. Film is not even a word that can describe the atrocity of this HorrorFest movie. I saw that it featured Gabrielle Anwar. And I suppose that because I saw her …

I was a little wary of seeing the movie “Baby Mama.” Its rated PG-13, first of all, and I’ve noticed that most PG-13 movies these days are geared towards the youngsters who are limited to that rating. Second of all, the topic itself… the concept of a hopeful mother …

It took me a very long time to watch the movie “Die Hard” since after seeing it advertise on cable television, and hearing people, including of of my friends in particular talk about it, I thought it would be another one of those action movies with lots of action …

“Mad Money” is simply a great movie with mixture of comic and dramatic moments. The main actors in this movie are Diane Keaton, Ted Danson, Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes and all of them do their part well, however Keaton gives that extra bit more and it shows.
“Mad Money” …

Eventually they encounter …

I waited until this movie came out on DVD to rent the Director’s Cut. I am so glad that I did. I knew that this movie would be funny simply because Judd Apatow (”The 40 Year-Old Virgin”) was at the helm. Additionally, there is no …

Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Eva Mendes make up a stellar cast that didn’t make it too big in theaters. Cleaner feels a lot like an episode of CSI, a television show that has millions of viewers each and every week. With its CSI qualities there is more …

The RM is one of my favorite movies. It is basically about a returned missionary for the LDS church and how all his expectations for his return go awry. His girlfriend gets engaged to somebody else, the job he was promised falls through, his car was sold, he gets …

My wife and I ended up watching some Christmas movies the other day, including National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation; a movie that apparently has been out for 20 years now (making me feel old considering I remember it being at the theater).
Of the other Lampoon’s Vacation movies, this one is …

I had actually been dying to see this movie although I kept passing over it in my Netflix queue. I feel that you have to be in a particular mood to deal with introspective ramblings of 30ish, 40ish people traveling the country simply to taste wine and sow …

The movie “Meet Dave” represents an attempt from the actor, Eddie Murphy in showing that he can do something different and, at the same time, be successful. Although Murphy tried to link the comic world with the fantasy world in one movie, unfortunately he failed miserably to win over …

I just love Shia La Beouf’s movies. This is another one of them. It was released in 2007, under the horror category. However this was more of a thriller than horror.
The story is about a boy Kale(Shia La Beouf) who is under house arrest for punching his Spanish teacher …

I have loved Gerard Butler since seeing him do comedy on The Ugly Truth, he can be such a natural jerk and it makes me wonder if he’s really like that in person, just curious because he’s so good at what he does! Anyway, this story sets on Gerard …

What Lies Beneath is a very good movie. It is not really a supernatural story, but it plays with emotions, feelings, a bit of haunting feeling and lots of gutsy, instinct-feelings of a wife, in the end to realize that she is living with not just a cheating …

This is a movie made by George Lucas. Truthfully, I didn’t know that George Lucas had made any other movies besides the Star Wars ones. The cover looked kind of strange, with this big duck on it and I was unsure what the movie was about. Anyway, I checked …

It is always better to be safe than sorry. Just like these guys (and girl) who got drunk and danced on graves; and their misfortune to have chosen …

Showgirls is probably one of my favorite movies of all time. A lot of critics disagree and call this one of the worst movies ever made. But the movie has become a cult classic now. I love the movie because it’s one of the only mainstream movies to have lots …

Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.
Why make a movie based upon the rotten life of Johnny Cash? Another entertainer corrupted by rapid success hits rock bottom and then pulls out a turnaround is no big deal. Cash with his …

First and foremost I must say that you should enjoy foreign films (at least to a certain extent) before viewing this movie. Secondly, I should say that if you have seen “City of God” then you will probably enjoy this movie. And third, I must say that …

I first saw the horror movie “Stigmata” a little after I got cable television which would have been in about te year 2001 or 2002. Thus I was still a bit young at the time, and I only saw a part of the movie because I thought it was …

I love Star Wars Attack of the Clones, and who would not? This to me is the most awaited part of the series where finally I get to see Master Yoda kick some serious butt. I am just fascinated by the Yoda character. It is just …

I rented this movie from Netflix because I had pretty much seen all the other horror ones on my list and had become bored waiting for new ones to come out. I had enjoyed foreign films in the past, and always found Asian horror to be different and interesting. Like …

In Singapore, there are very few who could make it big in the movie industry, due to our size that adds a lot of constraints for us. Jack Neo, once a comedian in his comedy night featuring him posing as a old granny named “Liang Po Po”. He’s considered …

I remember seeing the ads for this movie when it first hit theaters several years ago. I had no idea what the storyline was. All I knew was that it was about a girl and her dog, and that alone was enough to make me want to see it. …

In 1978, there was a movie produced called Dominique. Unlike the bouncing tune made famous in The Singing Nun, this Dominique is deadly serious. In fact, it’s essentially a murder mystery.
Everything in this piece is very slow and deliberate. As a viewer, it’s easy to draw …

I love all sorts of family and children movies and television shows, and Horton Hears A Who is right up at the top of my list of favorites. Horton Hears A Who is a cartoon movie about Horton, an elephant who hears voices coming from a dust ball. What …
