The Princess Diaries Movie
I can’t believe I fooled myself into watching this for the 3rd or maybe even 4th time. The first time was bearable since it was interesting to get a break from all the “thinking” psychological movies I usually get myself into. It was a simple plot: rag-to-riches kind of …

The Call (Movie 2013)
As a fan of Halle Berry, I tend to tune into most everything she is featured in. When seeing the preview trailers for The Call, I was excited and dead set on seeing it. The previews were intriguing, but in a simple kind of way.
The Call isn’t meant …
Sphere (Movie)
Sphere is a science-fiction thriller which was released in 1997, starring Sharon Stone, Dustin Hoffman and Samuel L Jackson. I remember seeing things about it when it came out and had a rough idea what it was about, but never actually watched it till now. The strong cast are …
Storm Warning Movie
Storm Warning is easily one of the best horror movies that I’ve seen in a long time, which is ironic considering that it isn’t really a horror movie, at least not in the traditional sense. If a magazine were to review this movie they would probably say it falls …
Ghost World comedy
Great comedy staring the then-not-so-popular Scarlett Johansson. This movie also stared Thora Birch, and one of my favorite actors, Steve Buscemi. Ghost World is based off of the comic book title of the same name, it I promise you, this will be one of the best comedy-drama movies you’ll …

Frozen (2010 movie)
Earlier on this year someone recommended that I watch the suspense movie “Frozen”, which was released in 2010. It took me nearly a week to watch it since I was constantly busy and when I was free I really wasn’t in the mood to do anything else but sleep, …
Alice in Wonderland 1951 Movie
Alice in Wonderland was one of those older Disney films that I never really understood as a child. Even now, as an adult, I still have some problems understanding the themes or what exactly is happening in the movie at certain times. The original film was released in 1951 …
War of the Worlds
I will be talking about the 2005 remake of War of the Worlds starring Tom Cruise. Now the movie is critically acclaimed to be a somewhat terrible movie. Besides one flaw at the very end of the movie, I thought the movie overall was actually brilliant. …
Leatherheads
Leatherheads is a comedy directed by George Clooney. He also plays the lead character. The movie is rated PG-13.
The movie is about football before it was popular, and what the players and teams had to go through to make it what it is today. It also shows how stories …
Godzilla vs. Mothra
Godzilla vs. Mothra is a definite improvement over King Kong vs. Godzilla, although it is still not necessarily on my top ten list of favorite Godzilla movies. I find the Godzilla suit to be a definite improvement over the Godzilla suit from the previous suit because this Godzilla looks …

My Mom’s New Boyfriend (movie)
I am not usually a fan of the romance comedy genre of film, but when I heard about the plot of this film somewhere a few years ago, I decided that I wanted to watch it. However, I was a little skeptical about how enjoyable I would find it …
Source Code 2011 Movie
I watched this movie only once, but it made a rather big impression on me nonetheless, and I would like to describe this impression below.
I started watching this film without having any idea of what the plot was going it be. I only knew that it was going to …
Big Daddy movie
Big Daddy is a nice comedy movie with some emotional scenes. This Adam Sandler starred movie has some heart touching scenes to it’s credit. Sonny is a job less and irresponsible guy. Though his friends and the people from his college have moved ahead in life and are doing …
Max Payne (2008)
This is another movie that was taken from a video game of the same name about a detective who is self involved in his work at hunting down to person or people involved in the death of his wife and child. But unlike the video game, this movie falls …
Pirates of the Caribbean 2
Great movie!! I LOVED the first Pirates movie and thought the cast was outstanding and once again, they were great! This story tells us that Captain Jack Sparrow has a debt to pay to Davy Jones (who by the way is pretty gross looking as is the rest of …
Breakup movie
Not only is breaking up hard to do, but it’s hard to make a movie about something so intricately complicated as the ending of love. And yet, oftentimes the ending of a relationship doesn’t mean the ending of love. Seen in this movie is such an ending. The relationship …
A of “The Social Network” (2010 film)
Since it’s looking like a strong contender for Best Picture at the next Oscars, and because it was the only movie I’ve actually been even moderately excited about seeing in a long time, here’s my review of David Fincher’s “The Social Network,” a film based on a book chronicling …
Movie: Ponyo
Because I have kids, just about everyone who has seen the movie Ponyo has told me it is a film we should watch with the family. So, when it became available on Netflix Instant Watch, I did make an effort to add it to my list and, this past …
Enchanted movie
The story introduced me that the theory of “happily ever after” is just a fairytale. Enchanted shows you the fact, between the fairytale and the realities. Love needs time and everything may be happen when you’re about to find your true love. Well, I guess that was the idea …
Die Hard
We like movies and we go to them alot. We also would rather watch a movie on TV rather than sit through many of the series that are presently available on TV.
I like to watch certain actors and one of them is Bruce Willis. In the …

1. Did I stay interested / awake throughout the entire movie ?
A. Eyes were fluttering at the 30 min mark but pushed through. Glad I did.
2. Would I buy it on DVD ?
A. Yes, it’s a unique movie in a way.
3. Would I take my partner to see it on …
The Lion King
One of my favorite animated Disney movies is The Lion King. It is about all the animals in Africa, concentrating on the lion cub, Simba, who grows into a full-grown lion during the movie. The story is very cute and touching. Beware though; you may need …
Cat’s Eye movie
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. …
Movie Cleopatra
In my opinion, the movie Cleopatra was outstanding and exciting till the last moment. The movie was broke into joyful sections, melancholy sections, and humorous sections. One of the humorous sections was when the Egyptian fleet was set on fire by Caesar; Cleopatra instantly went to meet him. Caesar …
“Shutter Island” movie
Another movie from under the hand has the duo Martin Scorsese - Leonardo DiCaprio is a screen adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s novel a great “Island of the condemned.” To a hospital for mentally ill offenders located on an island cut off from the world comes two policemen (one of …
McHales Navy movie
The retired old commander named McHale is recalled to the navy after his arch enemy takes over the Island San Marino.
Stupid, stupid movie that almost makes me laugh at how amateurishly made it is. Bruce Campbell is almost charming, but the fact is that he always appeared in second …
V for Vendetta: Movie
I feel that V for Vendetta is a very good film that is based on what I feel is an excellent topic.
The storyline of government rebellion is something that I’ve always been interested in, so a film like this was great for someone like me.
One of the things I …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
A Frozen Flower (a Korean Movie)
If you love movies of foreign languages, then you can try to watch this Korean movie titled, A Frozen Flower. I thought it’s a rather weird movie and at the same time, feels quite confused by it all. This movie is basically about royalty, about the “relationship” of …
When a man loves a woman movie
Every movie wants to give the viewers a lot of information and this movie”When a Man Loves a Woman” is a good example of this.It was release in theaters year 1994.Obviously,i was not able to watch it and just got the chance when i was in High School.This is …
Movie Love Wrecked
I honestly love watching Amanda Bynes movies, however “Love Wrecked” must be her worst movie since the story is not credible at all.
In “Love Wrecked” we see Amanda Bynes interpret the role of Jenny Riley who is totally crazy about a famous and popular rock star, Jason Master. …
Power to the Peephole
No episode better showcases the out of date parodies of Tripping the Rift than this episode: “Power to the Peephole” which bases its entire B plot (or is it the C plot) around the whole Monica Lewinsky debacle. Not just a joke or two, but it is actually …
The Beach movie
I heard of the movie “The Beach” when I was in my second year of high school. I can remember that it was promoted a lot then and a few of my friends wanted to go and see it in theatres, especially the ones who had managed to buy …
The 5th Wave (2016 Science Fiction Thriller Movie)
I spent a long time wondering what happened to the actor Tobey Maguire since I didn’t see him in any movies or TV series in a long time. Therefore, when I heard that he was producing a movie The 5th Wave I was eager to see it. I became even …
Happy Feet movie
I did not see the movie Happy Feet in the theatre, but my daughter recently received it for her birthday. My kids, ages 7 and 8, enjoyed it but it did not hold their attention and I doubt they will be wanting to watch it a second time. …
Mystic Pizza (1988 Film)
What is there to not love about a movie with a dynamite cast, amazingly relatable and entertaining plot, and an ending that leaves viewers feeling warm and fuzzy and hopeful for their own futures. If you haven’t already guessed, I am talking about the 1988 film, “Mystic Pizza” starring …
13 going on 30
13 going on 30 is s drama romantic movie but the story is unreliable. It’s tell about the girl who her wishes is come true which is wanna become 30 this movie is directed by Gary Winick. though the story is impossible, I like to watch this movie …
Airplane 2 movie
I absolutely loved the first Airplane movie and was excited when I rented the sequel to it. I wasn’t disappointed.
Set in the future, the movie gave spoofs a new twist by spoofing a classic film, 2001. Instead of being on an airplane, the heros are forced to land a …
Guess Who (2005 movie)
I’m still wondering if this is a remake of the classic “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner”, for it does not have the flair of the original (that’s of course, if it is a remake). Ashton Kutcher (Simon Green) co-stars with Bernie Mac (Percy Jones) in this family comedy that …
Coraline (animation movie)
Coraline is a 2009 animation, fantasy and thriller movie directed by Henry Selick. This animation movie wasn’t a computer generated animation movie that I usually love to watch. Though, this movie proved to be a complete surprise for me. I guess I didn’t watched any of the animation movies …
Jackass: The Movie (2002)
One of my favorite television series when I was in high school was a television series named “Jackass” which starred pranksters Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera and Steve-O. I used to stay up with or without my brother every Sunday night in order to watch it, and I found most …
Chuck Vs the Third Dimension
I’m not sure what the problem was, but the three d glasses which were made available for this episode but they didn’t work all that well. I suspect that I sit closer to my TV than most people, so I’m going to assume that was it for now.
The plot …
Columbo: Butterfly in Shades of Grey movie
William Shatner does his second stint on Columbo playing a radio show star named Fielding Chase. The show is entitled Butterfly in Shades of Grey and also features Molly Hagan as Fielding’s foster daughter, Victoria. Chase is quite the pompous one, and Shatner wears a silly, somewhat …
