The Last King of Scotland was possibly the first movie that I had seen the Scottish actor James McAvoy in where I began to take him seriously. I remember that when I first watched it, I didn’t have a clue what it was going to be about and so …

The first time that I saw the movie “Bingo” was several years ago in either the late nineteen nineties or the early two thousands, and I was not very impressed with the movie. Even when I watched it a little more recently, I still was not impressed with it. …

I think it would be fun, as the title led me to believe that this was a modern version of the …

As far as wasted opportunities go, this film takes the cake. It isn’t so much a remake of the original film as it is homage to it as only the very basic plot elements from the original were retained and woven into an unnecessarily reworked plot that falls flat …

We recently purchased the Pirates of the Caribean on video from Wal Mart. The one with Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. I enjoyed this movie as much at home as I did in the movies when it first came out.

Suburban Girl is a very sweet and funny story and I have a really fun time watching this. Sarah Michelle Gellar can act in romantic comedy roles as well and she’s a very pleasing eye-candy and a fun to watch. She appears to be brunette in this story …

I saw the movie Tank Girl a while back but honestly couldn’t remember much about it. After seeing it again last night, I still have to admit it’s a better movie than you would expect it to be.
Apparently based off a comic book I haven’t read, the movie takes …

You have to be at least my age to be able to remember Elvira hosting B-rated horror movies on television back in the 80s. However, kids can gain an understanding of her character by renting her classic movie, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
Overall, it’s kind of a dumb movie. …

As the Danville Stadium is …

The danish director Lars von Trier has been hailed as a master of cinema and won many prizes on the Cannes film festival the last 15 years. To me he is a very overrated filmmaker who never really managed to develop his own cinematic expression that couldn’t be mistaken …

This movie is really great; It was produced in Hongkong and was starred by a Japanese hearthrob and a singaporean actress. I have enjoyed watching it because of the unique and cute mild love story. The characters have met 10 years ago as a child and have never talked …

After hearing only dismal things about this movie in its reviews, I decided to watch it for myself and found that the people who were speaking negatively were not that far off. The plot of the movie is good. Young man finds picture of a woman in war that …

This film powerfully demonstrates how humans should never repress themselves. The protagonist courageously braves all criticisms and alienation to introduce to this rigid town, that one can act on human desire.
The town, despite its extremeness in following unwritten rules, exemplifies a lot of our societies. The protagonist, enviably shepherds …

I like Tyler Perry’s plays and his movies. This one was no different. THis movie is about what can happen to a relationship when it is not built on the right things. IT shows what can happen when couples start to take each other for granite and start to …

I like The Simpsons TV show, so I obviously expected to enjoy The Simpsons movie, and I was not disappointed. It was not the same format as a TV show - usually The Simpsons TV shows start out with one plot or problem, and end up being about something …

Mulholland Drive is an absolute masterpiece from surreal director David Lynch, but it is not for everybody I guess. Some people are going to be irritated at the strangeness of this film, but others like me enjoy that strangeness and it serves to draw us into the mystery. …

I watched the movie, The Gift, because of its interesting trailer and it seemed to be on the cusp of horror (I’m a big fan of horror). I didn’t expect to be extremely impressed by the movie but nearly two hours later, I was definitely satisfied. The Gift is more …

Showgirls is one of the most idiotic, lame and stupid movies I’ve ever has the non-pleasure of watching. Elizabeth Berkley attempts to pull off her pitiful character, Nomi, and fails miserably. I never thought much of Elizabeth Berkley and her acting anyway, and Showgirls was the straw that broke …

I grew up reading Harry Potter books in my formative years back in the 90’s. The time when the whole Harry Potter franchise was less frenzied and the books were just lurking somewhere to be discovered. My devotion to the books reached a fanatical stage that I …

Since yesterday was Halloween, my wife and I spent part of the afternoon watching scary movies. One of the movies we ended up watching was one I haven’t seen in a long time called Dolls. I didn’t remember much about it, other than, when I was younger, it scared …

This is an “anthology” film. It features three self contained stories. The closest thing to a link is a stray cat that wanders from location to location and sort of observes the events in the film.
The stories are all based on works by horror master Stephen King. …

When Hello, Dolly! was brought to the big screen in 1969 after being a successful musical on Broadway, Hollywood cast Barbra Streisand in the role of Dolly Levi. It wasn’t a role she wanted. After all, she was too young to play the matronly Levi. On …

The 1988 film starring Sigourney Weaver called “Gorillas in the Mist: The Story of Dian Fossey” was something that surprised me. Normally, I am not one to really enjoy films such as these, but this film changed my mine towards movies that capture the real life events of people …

Lake Mungo is one of the AfterDark Horrorfest movies of 20–. I usually find these are better than the standard B horror movies so when they came out on DVD, I put the whole set on my Netflix list. This Australian movie was made as a “mockumentary” about …

While the trailers made this movie look like a formulaic popcorn flick, I had heard generally good things about this movie. The truth is, it is something of a mixed bag.
As the trailers show, the movie follows a young woman (played by Scarlett Johansson) who becomes something superhuman …

The sheer brilliance of ‘Nishabd’ should render all Ramu’s detractors speechless. He once again proves himself to be the master of the craft. He did it with the spunky ‘Rangeela’; his gritty essays on the underworld; ‘Bhoot’; ‘Sarkar’ and now with ‘Nishabd’, RGV once again establishes why celluloid is …

I wasn’t too sure what to expect when I checked this movie out of the library, but to my delight it was a truly engrossing movie. It’s about the power struggle between two men on a train during the Great Depression. One man works on the train and he …

This movie is about what happened in 9/11. Nicolas Cage plays the main character. Although the movie isn’t what I expected it to be It was really good and worth watching. I think that the movie is about something important that happened and everyone should see it. They did …

What is this movie about? I can answer that in two words: bar dancing. There is nothing else in it, really. No story to speak of, just a few events to get the main character to work at the bar - and then it is all about girls dancing …

This was a horror movie in the sense that the main character (besides Wes Bentley) is a complete maniac who does the sociopath thing really well. The premise of the story is fairly simple: a young man happens to catch a serial killer making a kill. …

There is no denying Nic Cage’s indefatigable work ethic, although even his staunchest fans must concede that some of his performances are at best, curiosities, to be enjoyed much in the same way that people would regard bearded ladies in the Victorian Freak Shows of times past.
This film …

Synopsis: The Saw movie franchise is finally brought to a close with this final installment which brings back some characters from earlier movies.
