Signs movie
I know many people didn’t like “Signs”. I think that is because they came into the movie with the wrong expectations. As a science fiction movie “Signs” is average. The aliens don’t make very much sense; there is no explanation of their motivation. The special effects are simple to …
The Bunny Guards vs The Wicked Forces of Evil movie

The Leopard (1963 film by Luchino Visconti)
I take great delights from viewing films based on fine literature. Mostly I like to see the author’s descriptions translated into the picture as well as the embodiment of the characters, which altogether makes for an extended annotation to the book. I came upon a criterion copy …
Masters of Horror: The Black Cat
The Black Cat is partially fact based, but mainly based on fiction. Though it was directed by Stuart Gordon, I ended up feeling really disappointed by this one, but I’m not exactly sure why. The color palate of the film is very dark, but since it is set in …
The Duke of Hazzard
This is another comedy movie from Seann Williams Scott, I like almost all his movie. In this movie, the Duke of Hazzard is starred by Sean William Scott, Johnny Knoxville, and Jessica Simpson. I like this movie because it’s full of silly unexpected smart things but do with …

Movie: Freedom Writers (2007)
“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 …
3:10 to Yuma-the Removie (2007)
I like westerns very much and am always pleased when Hollywood makes another one with a high budget and good actors. I enjoyed “3:10 to Yuma”-the removie very much. I found it believable and superior to the original. “3:10 to Yuma” is a Relativity Media production, a company that …
The Secret movie

However, while the movie turned out to be halfway decent, I also found …

Netflix Mail Movie Rentals
Netflix is the best way to rent movies. I am actually suprised that video stores are still in business. They offer several different plans to fit your needs. The most affordable plan is their unlimited plan, which allows you to rent one DVD at a time and costs $9 …
Chef-2014, Drama, Comedy Movie
The main word I can say subsequent to watching this is “Exceptional”. Jon Favreau is only a stickler in each field. He has written this movie, directed it and afterward nailed it as the lead performing artist. Subsequent to Iron Man 1 and 2, he proceeds with his splendid work. …
King Kong Movie
I recently went to go see King Kong at a movie theatre. It was everything I expected. King Kong was full of action, suspense and romance. This movie protrays the well known saying, “beauty killed the beast.” King Kong is one of the best movies in 2005. And anyone …

Enemy At The Gates
No introduction to actors Ed Harris and Jude Law are ever required. Enemy At The Gates, in my opinion, is often an overlooked masterpiece. Based on real life events during World War II, the movie centers around the battle for Stalingrad between the Germans and Russians. Master sniper …

Hell or High Water (2016 Western Heist Film)

Twilight Tragedy
If I can take any one thing from the new hit movie “New Moon” it would be that it is a noble, valiant thing to kill yourself over a lost loved one. What an epiphany! Actually, i am somewhat offended at the vast love people seem to have for …

Fahrenheit 451 Movie
“Fahrenheit 451″ filmed in 1966 and directed by François Truffaut is one bad, boring movie. I am really sorry to say this, but it is. I had read Ray Bradbury’s book titled “Fahrenheit 451″ and I remember enjoying it, so when I saw the movie at our library I …

I did …

Batman Begins Movie
This was Cillian Murphy’s breakout movie as Jonathan Crane a.k.a The Scarecrow and I think he did an amazing job here. He could do drama as well as action and he’s a newly-talented and famous actor for doing and completing this movie alone! Christian Bale portrayed Batman in this …
