I would have to admit that Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones is certainly a step up from Episode I, although I personally enjoy Episode III the most out of the original trilogy. Whereas Episode I had the burden of introducing characters and not just setting up …

This was possibly the best disaster movie I can remember watching. In fact, before this movie I had no idea that disaster movies could be great, since most of them tend to be b-movies. However, one of the things I learned from watching this movie was that good disaster …

I’ve studied manifestation for about 15 years and understand basic principles, but The Secret really summed manifestation up. This movie was emotional, funny and introspective. Australian Rhonda Byrne put the movie together after her father died. She read The Science of Getting Rich, which her father left to her. …

I didn’t know what to think when I rented Fun With Dick & Jane. I usually like Jim Carrey movies but I wasn’t sure if this one would be very good or not. What I found was, while it was a funny movie, it was one I could relate …

American Gangster…..a good movie. Unfortunatley thats all it is, and all it ever will be. In the Pantheon of Great Gangster Films, this should have been its most recent entry. Instead it falls into the Pantheon of Films that Need A Little More Work. I was so let down …

I just got finished watching the movie “blessed” on lifetime movie network. It was an alright movie. Overall I didn’t really care for it that much. I would have rather watched something else. The end was pretty good though. The whole movie was alright, the end was the best …

I have recently been introduced in world cinema with this Francois Truffaut film, and to my surprise, I seriously love this masterful class of work. At first, it seems like just a typical film that I keep on ignoring every time my television plays some black and white film, …

I remember hearing my share about the latest Robo Cop film. Many said the film was awesome and was better than the older, originals films, while others swore that the film sucked. So to say I decided to watch it for myself.
The problem with remakes of old movies …

There is some controversy about this movie and the date it was released, to the effect that it was the very first movie to have a Motion Picture Association rating of PG-13 due to the excessive violence that the movie offered. Now I say to you my good viewing …

A former marine wants to become an FBI Agent, in order to do so, she must successfully complete both the physical and the academicals part of the training program, but she is lacking in the smarts department. Fortunate for her, she is paired with a person who has the …

The 2008 film “Jumper” starring Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christenson, looked to be a great action movie that would catch the viewers attention. The actors in the film are known for many other roles in which they really shined, and I had anticipated that the same would be said …

Judd Apatow promised the world with Funny People and delivered an atlas. Not even a good atlas but a boring one without any pictures. If you saw the previews and advance publicity for this movie and were expecting a comedy, or even a few laughs, like myself you will …

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 …

I saw trailer of the fifth part of Harry Potter on HBO, very impressive and attractive. But I watched it and it was disappointed. Everything happened so fast. If you didn’t read the novel Harry Potter and The order of the Pheonix before watching the film, you can not …

It is usually a safe bet to put Ashton Kutcher in a movie and see big numbers. The same goes for Cameron Diaz. What Happens in Vegas didn’t exactly change the way we view comedy movies, but it was enough to earn almost a hundred million dollars in box …

I always love the movie about a woman who disquises as a man with a special purpose and this movie really gives me what I expect.
It is about Viola, a girl who wants to prove to her boyfriend that woman can beat man in football game and that’s why, …

In 2011, Drive was critically acclaimed for its 80’s throwback style and intense car chase sequences. For comparisons, the likes of Bullitt and French Connection were often cited in many reviews. One movie in particular was left out of those reviews. This is criminal considering the …

OK, I’ll admit it, when I rented the movie Premonition, I didn’t think it was going to be anything special. I mean, it looked creepy enough, but most movies do in the previews and then suck.
But, after watching it, I’ll admit it; I was definitely a little bit spooked …

The 2008 movie “Rachel Getting Married” might have had a great cast who fell into the roles of their characters phenomenally, and maybe they have done that too well. Because Anne Hathaway who plays Rachel’s sister, Kim, in the movie, really got on my nerves and I think that …

Ever since the good old “Even Stevens” days, I have been a Shia LaBeouf fan. His sarcastic, wise-guy attitude and his ability to pull off “dumb” dialog makes him a very appealing actor. I have enjoyed watching LaBeouf’s career mature as he began to play more serious …

The Last Samurai is an epic film, where Tom Cruise plays the Captain Nathan Algre, in a scenario of the year of 1876. He is a American Civil War hero that was hired by the Japanese Emperor to train the new modern army in modern fighting styles and to …

This was an interesting experiment in marketing. One third comic book, one third cartoon, and one third audiobook. This takes the iconic graphic novel and converts it into a sort of flash animation.
You get all the dialogue and narration, the boxes even pop up, which is surprising …

The funniest movie you’ll ever see. That is how I had this movie advertised to me. I laughed and said no way when I heard this. And after seeing the movie I am ready to admit..I was right. This movie is no where NEAR the …

One of the most classic motion picture musicals is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, a 1953 release that stars the unforgettable Marilyn Monroe. The blonde was the sensation of her day, and this movie is the equivalent to her theme song. Of course, it contains the song that is …

Hollywood hottie Angelina Jolie action thriller once again jumping from a height, a hail of bullets to get out and action is seen. After watching the film may explain why the roll of 007 Lady Jolie wants to play.
In fact, the story of salt in mind was written before …

What you need to do while watching this movie is thank you lucky stars that you don’t know anyone like these people for if you do, you would be just as messed up in the head as they are. Then again, if you are just like these people in …

Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …

The story of Moses who goes to fetch the ten commandments on the mountain of Sinai in Egypt. Great actors like Charlton Heston, John Carradine and Edward G. Robinson bear this story on their shoulders, a film which I honestly found quite boring. I am not a religious man …

Rocky II is the rematch between Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed. The movie begins by showing the ending of the first movie. This is done throughout the Rocky movies (the first five) and was a great idea to do.
Shortly after the movie starts, Rocky and …

I watched this film last night, never even having heard of it before. It was made in 1999 and stars a very young looking Ewen McGregor and Susan Lynch. The film tells the story of the stormy relationship between the Irish writer James Joyce and his wife Nora, who …

I honestly do not know how we functioned before Netflix came along. What now seems to be a fact of life in many American homes, used to once be a luxury that people got if they were well off and far too lazy to make their way to the …

I am reviewing the movie, Pretty Woman, starring Richard Geere and Julia Roberts. This is a love story. It is a chick flick. Men beware. Women rejoice. Rich Richard Geere’s character is in the need of company one evening, so he decides to go along and pick …

This is a wonderful animated file to me. Created by Hayao Miyazaki, a famous japanese animation artist. It is a story of a young girl who was thrown into a world where both good and evil exist. Thoughtout the film, she gets trained to be brave, learns about …

After his belated return to his roots with Land of the Dead a few years prior, Romero turns prolific once more with Diary of the Dead; an interesting take on the genre with a hand held, documentary tactic employed perhaps most famously with Cloverfield.
It’s an interesting idea, and …

Picnic At Hanging Rock came to me in an unexpected way. I saw it on the Independent Film Channel and while it was a little weird, I knew I had to see Picnic At Hanging Rock again. The film is made in Australia, and I have not seen many …

I have been passing over this film in my queue for a couple of years now. I finally decided to give it a chance, and immediately realized what my inner voice had been telling me for quite a while. This movie is crap. Sorry for …

This movie was utterly depressing. I think many couples would be quite stricken after watching this. It may be focused on married couples, but I think that the theme encompasses all relationships anywhere in the world because it tackles a very important yet often overlooked issue: communication.
The Wheelers …

There are just some books that should not be made as movies, and The Age of Adaline was one of those books. I never read the book myself and after watching the movie I probably will do my best to go out of my way just to avoid it in …

This simple story of two dogs getting together is made all the more unique because it is told from the point of view of the dogs. I found this fact to be charming. There have been many stories done in this manner, but I think Lady and the Tramp …

This year is the year of surprises for me. I have expected many films to be great, such as Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad and Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk and they end up not matching my expectations. However, films such as Sing Street, Swiss Army Man, Hunt for the …

My husband and I finally watched “The Bourne Legacy” last night. I was so excited to watch this movie, as I am huge fan of the other “Bourne” movies. I am also a fan of Jeremy Renner and Edward Norton, so I had high hopes as we sat …

Something about the thought of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence playing cops makes me want to laugh, and watching the 2003 movie Bad Boys 2 I do plenty of that. Whether it’s the two characters demonstrating their “tandem dance routine”, complaining about the pool in Lawrence’s character’s back yard, …

This is one of Hollywood’s classic movies which tackles a very difficult argument about living life to the full and suicides. What I really like about this movie is Al Pacino excellent performance of the role Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade. It is no doubt that he won the Oscar …

My fiance and I just got back from this movie. It was awful. Do not waste your time! The action scenes were dull, what ones there were. Annette Benning, I believe that’s her name, only has like two minutes in the film, which is disappointing because she’s such a …

Wall*e is such a cute movie. I rented it for my kids the day that it was finally available on DVD.
It’s a story about a trash robot that was left on earth, along with other trash robots, all most seven hundred years ago. Humans had made so much trash …

I watched Tropic Thunder the first day that it was released and it was such an enjoyable, funny and out of this world hilarious type of movie. Ben Stiller rocks! as a Director and I give him two thumbs up, without thinking for a second.
Call me biased or what, …

Back when I was in high school, Literature class was one of my favourite subjects because we had a teacher who made all of the topics that we covered very interesting, especially when she made references to other books and movies. One of the books that I remember her …

In must admit that I really enjoy watching Mandy Moore’s movie; however “Dedication” failed to impress me. Even though the great actors, Diane Wiest and Tom Wilkinson give a lot to this movie, ultimately I found it a boring romantic comedy. It seems that I am not the only …
