The Phantom of the Opera is one of my most favorite musicals. I love the songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber (I think he’s a genius). I especially love ‘The Music of the Night’. That’s why when I heard that it was going to be made into a movie, I …

In the year 2007, I would have thought that a more in depth methamphetamine documentary could have been made. Kudos to the creators for casting Val Kilmer as the narrator. His voice has plenty of presence, and you forget that it’s even him speaking. However, this …

I had heard and read a lot about The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus before I watched in on DVD yesterday. I have followed the director Terry Gilliam’s career from his Monty Python days, and have very much admired his somewhat strange and eccentric art and movies. I had also …

Introduction
I have been a fan of Eddie Izzard from the beginning. Recently, I got given his latest live DVD called ’stripped’ and he is still one of the funniest comedians out there.
The Show
If you have seen an Eddie Izzard performance before then it is fair to say that you …

Adam Saddler as Dave Buznik is a man with anger problems, after being forcefully removed from a flight after a so-called abuse of the flight attendant, he ends up in court and is basically forced into doing anger management classes. This is where Jack Nicholson comes in, he is …

Moving Target could have a decent movie, but it just drags way too much to be more than so-so. The plot has some intrigue to it, but it’s poorly directed with too many long pauses and too much murkiness. I say that even though there is a …

Spanglish is a very boring movie and it completely disappointed me in every which way. Adam Sandler is a good actor, though his brilliance in acting hasn’t been noticed at the beginning of his career. He gave us many good films like Big Daddy, Punch Drunk Love and many …

I’m really not a huge fan of Eddie Murphy’s movies and so when the movie “A Thousand Words” came out I wasn’t really interested in seeing it. It took me a couple months of yearning for a proper comedy to watch and a little bit of boredom to see …

I’m not really sure how the movie The Last Song got on my Netflix list but it ended up coming in the mail the other day. Personally, I think my wife must have added it because, while I don’t dislike Miley Cyrus, the movie sounded a heck of a …

I used to hear my friends in high school talking about the movie Juanna Mann a lot and how hilarious it was, but I didn’t know what they were talking about until it premiered on comedy central one Saturday. I was so used to my frieneds telling me how …

My wife and I ended up blowing off our housework yesterday and watched movies all day. One of the films we saw was the 1958 classic “The Blob.”
Even though I’ve seen the sequels and remakes of the movie, I still feel this original is the best. Steve McQueen is …

Christmas time has to be among my favorite times of the year. Not necessarily because of the presents but rather because the world seems to slow down and smell the roses a little more. Its a time of tradition, love, family and spirit.
It is with this in mind …

When this movie came out I really thought it was so low-budget and too corny. I didn’t know the director, I didn’t know the main cast, and I didn’t know what the point of the movie was all about. The trailer didn’t show anything much and the posters were …

I love watching historical movies, and that is why I was so eager to see “Belle” after I had seen the trailer only months before it was released. What piqued my interest about it even more was that it was supposed to be based on the story revolving around a …

Homicide with Joe Mantegna and Bill Macy.
I do not believe that this movie made the big screen as it was pretty cheesy. It focuses on two crimes in New York City. One was a black cop killer who only needed to be located. …

“Life or Something Like It” is definitly not one of the best Angelina Jolie’s movies. Infact she was nominated for the Razzie Awards for her part in this movie. Jolie is not great in this movie because, for one thing, she is wearing blond hair and looks like a …

I will immediately reveal that I have given this film the rating of seven, and it should instantly make a statement about what I think of this movie. I think that this film is good, but not excellent.
I would like to make some comments about the production quality of …

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.
Stewart plays Elwood P. Dowd, who is unusually pleasant about absolutely everything. He’s never in a hurry, and he never …

So the Summer Movie Season begins, like Iron Man last Summer. Comic book movies hope to be the starting gun to an eventful few months in movie land. This one another form …

2001 Space Idiocies is the 4th episode of the 1st season of Tripping the Rift and is to me the highlight of the show’s first season. As the title gives away there is a lot of riffing off of the movie 2001: A Space Oddyssey.
This episode succeeds in …

On the whole, Horror is a genre that avoids the avant-garde, particularly the films that Hollywood produces. The Conjuring is little exception to this lack or experimentation.
The film explores issues and themes pertained to countless horror films before it; the main premise being that of a family moving …

Hey baby has been directed by Sajid khan who is the well known comedian of bollywood . The story about three friends played by Akshaya Kumar, Fardin Khan, Ritesh Deshmukh. who find a little girl one day and the changes that she bring there life style. This movie is …

One of my all-time favorite movie musicals is the wonderfully charming Oliver! I remember seeing it in the theaters when it came out in 1968, and I couldn’t get enough of it. I adored little Mark Lester, who plays the title role, and Jack Wild, who was …

We saw an ad on tv that said that you could rent movies from home for only $8.99 a month . The ad also said that you could get a free month’s membership just for signing up . We decided to give a try , and I’m glad that …

I would not necessarily call myself a die hard slasher movie fanatic, but it is safe to say I love me some Freddy Kreuger. Of all the Nightmare on Elm Street movies I have seen, and believe me I have seen them at least three lifetimes over, I would have …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 23 shows what happened to Ling Yao and Lan Fan and how they got away from King Bradley while Ed and Al go after Scar after Ed makes sure Winry is escorted to safety by the military personal. Roy Mustang sends Riza to assist …

There are many people out there who’ve been let down by the slew of unimaginably terrible horror films that claim to be scary. Finally I’ve found a film that’s worth a watch. Packed with a thrilling unease, an emotional interaction between mother and son and a story that’s coherent enough …

There are many cute Walt Disney cartoon characters but I think Donald Duck is the cutest of them all. To those who are not aware his full name is Donald Fauntleroy Duck and his birthday was June 9, 1934. With his cutie bird head and a pair of …

I love this movie theater. It is located in a shopping center complex, where I can easily eat at a fast food or sit down restaurant before or after the movie, and also do some shopping. It is usually crowded, so I have to walk a little ways to …

I finally saw the Psycho 1998 version and I must say it was a good movie. Now I have never seen the original Alfred Hitchcock version, but this one was pretty good. A younger Vince Vaughn played the role of the Psycho killer. He did a great job in the …

RomeoXJuliet Episode 22 begins with Juliet heading to Lord Montague’s castle while Tybalt and Romeo go there as well to confront him. Meanwhile Mercutio tries to decide what he’s supposed to do after he failed to carry out Lord Montague’s order.
This was a great episode, it had excellent …

The Legend of Zorro, directed by Martin Campbell is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America and stars Antonio Banderas as Zorro and Alejandra and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Elena.
The second installation to the classic Zorro saga, this movie tries to pickup from the first one and fails …

Labor Day is a film that I was eager to watch after seeing the many trailers on TV. I’m not one for chick flicks or too many sad love stories that don’t end too well. But Labor Day? This movie is what I would call a suitable love story …

I watched this movie a long time ago, not necessarily because I was actually interested in watching it but, I was waiting at a business place when it happened to be airing on television at the time, so I decied to watch it. The only thing I have to …

Have you ever seen the movie “A Lot like Love” with Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet? I’m guessing it’s been out for a while because I saw it last week on Encore. When I read the preview listed on the channel guide, it didn’t look that appealing, but since …

I was at first hesitant to watch the movie by Marc Wahlberg; though I know he is a good actor and has proven himself way too many times in his previous movies, I’d say I am glad that I did go to the movies and watched it. I really …

The 2011 film “Grace Card” is a film geared to motivate people to set the way for a change and for a better place where everyone is equal. While there were many wonderful moments in the film (including the plot itself) there were also a few parts that seemed …

I saw this movie 2 weeks after it came out, because there were a lot of people and the queue lines were long in the theaters!
I absolutely love the Prince of Persia games, and I have played almost all of them except for the latest one, Prince of …

This movie was loosely based on an original concept � a movie made in 1934 called Death Takes a Holiday. The premise is that the Grim Reaper, on assignment to bring Bill Parrish away, decides to go on vacation first. He takes on the body of a recently deceased …

As I mentioned in a previous review, I’ve decided to watch some of the movies that have been nominated for awards this year both for my personal enjoyment and out of research and development because I have hopes to go into the movie industry someday. Out of the number …

This 2007 movie stars Tommy Lee Jones and is about a drug deal gone wrong, it sucks you in, there is a psychopath who kills people left and right looking for his drug money, eventually leading him to a cowboy who found the money, after about an hour I …

I remember only vaguely the so-called hip-hop wars between the East Coast and the West Coast rap artists in the 1980s and early 1990s, because I listened to only some of the music. I do remember the violence between the two groups, and the gang war that resulted in …

Watching The Very Thought of You, I feel like wanting to be in the shoes of Monica Potter’s character very much. It is a story of choosing the Mr. Right one for you and that is what is basically the plot of the story.
Ralph Fiennes, Rufus Sewell …

This is probably one of my fewest most favorite films of all time! Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind is a fictional movie that basically gravitates around the idea about love. Played by the phenomenal Jim Carrey as Joel Barish and the versatile Kate Winslet as Clementine. The plot …

“Freedom Writers” (2007) was released so early in 2007 that I forgot it was eligible for the upcoming Academy Awards. Apparently so did members of the Academy because it received no nominations. The 123 minute Paramount Pictures movie is in English, filmed in color, and takes place in Long …
