Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen Movie
I was really excited about this movie as the first movie was really good. I was also expecting more added characters here and this movie was more exciting because of them. The plot is about Sam Witwicky deciding to leave for college to have a normal life and to …
Love Field (movie)
I love watching historical movies, or movies whose settings take place at memorable times during human history. This is why I was very intrigued by the description of the movie “Love Field” when I had seen it on the television guide when I was looking on what was going …
Gravity Movie 2013
There are movie screenings after which when I get out of the cinema I feel strange for a while. As if I’m in another world. Everything is familiar, but somehow different, strange. That is a clear evidence that I’ve watched something great and insightful. I have immersed myself in …
Ex Machina - Science Fiction Thriller Movie (2015)
Ex Machina is by far the best movie I’ve watched in 2015. I’ve watched it twice in theaters because I just couldn’t get over how amazing it was. (Some spoilers below)
The story is about a young man named Caleb Smith who works for Bluebook, a popular search engine, almost like …
Movie: Marley & Me
My oldest daughter has wanted to watch the movie Marley & Me ever since she saw previews for it. But, I was a bit hesitant to let her do that because I knew a movie like that would end up having some sort of sad ending to it and …
Untraceable Movie
I must have seen this movie advertise only once or twice before it hit theaters. In fact, in the few times I saw it advertise, I was almost completely sure that the movie would be just another mediocre suspense which Hollywood tried to shove on the average movie goer. …
Weird Science
The last time I watched the movie Weird Science, I was 12 years old and, while I understood some of what was going on, I�ll admit most of the stuff was a bit confusing.
So, when I found it on one of my premium movie channels the other day, I …
Session 9 (2001 movie)
“Session 9″ is another one of those little known horror movies that never made it to the big screen, as far as I know. I came across it on cable, and two things about it intrigued me. The lead actor is David Caruso, who I always liked from his …
Firehouse movie
This review is for a movie called Firehouse, which is not to be confused with Richard Dean Anderson’s Firehouse movie of 25 years later. However, whereas in 1997 it was women having to deal with being accepted, in this 1973 version, it’s African Americans struggling to break in …
Gandhi (1982)
I really admired the movie Gandhi (1982) directed by Richard Attenborough. From the boring history books that I read from high school and from classroom discussions that did not give me as much information as I need, the personality that I had been curious about finally came to …
Pitch Perfect 2, movie
The most awaited continuation of the Pitch Perfect is out! Pitch Perfect 2 is about the a cappella group Barden Bellas and their journey after winning the competition from the first movie of Pitch Perfect which gave the group and its members fame. I would not make it long so …
The Santa Clause 2 (2002 Film)
The Santa Clause was a great film that I loved as a child and as an adult. And the sequal to this family friendly film titled, “The Santa Clause 2” which came out in 2002 was also just as mesmerizing. In this film, we watch as Santa Clause (Scott …
Your Friends and Neighbors (R, 1998) movie
Usually I really like those films that take place in New York, and follow groups of friends around in their fabulously “mundane” single lives. This one was a little odd. I realize that the movie is over 10 years old. But I think it’s …
The Brave One
The actress, Jodie Foster is simply fantastic in whatever role she interprets and it seems to get better with every movie. This also applies to “The Brave One”. In this movie, Foster manages to work on the viewers’ emotion and during the movie you don’t know whether to love …
Friday the 13th Part 5
I think one of the funniest scenes in the movie is when you have a gorgeous blonde who is trying to hook up with a goofy, balding man. Every time I see the movie, I start laughing. I realize that it is supposed to be a small town, but …
Avengers: Age of Ultron, movie
One of the most expected movies from this summer. “Avengers: Age of Ultron”. A sequel to the big box office success to the first one. Bringing with it high expectations from the fans.

Nim’s Island, adventure-fantasy film
Walden Media hasn’t really changed movies with some of their movie adaptations of their famous novels. There seems to be more buzz around the actual title than the movie itself, which doesn’t sit well for movie goes. Is Nim’s Island going to suffer the same way just all the …
Solstice (PG-13, 2007)
I really tried hard to at least give this film a chance. I liked that it was set in Louisiana. I liked that the directors chose to focus on the solstice aspect. I even resigned myself to the fact that there would be several college kids …

Wall-E Movie Bluray

First off is the cool visual effects that they did for the ships rocketing off, ect. I believe that …
Babel, Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu Movie
At first, people only have one language, but since the incident tower of Babel, God to punish man they have so many languages, so that written in the book of the Gospel. This film highlights the three stories in three different places, but there is a red thread that …
Cocktail
“Cocktail” helped the actor Tom Cruise to become more famous in Hollywood; however I don’t believe that this is his best film from his initial stages. If I had to chose between “Cocktail”, “Top Gun” and “Risky Business”, I prefer to watch “Top Gun” and putting “Cocktail” the least movie …

Bad Boys 2, movie
Will Smith and Martin Lawrence did it so well the first time, that I couldn’t wait to see them reprise their roles as Drug Agents working for the Miami P.D. However, this film was lacking the story and power of the first, but it still had enough chemistry between …

The Hanged Man movie
Steve Forrest wasn’t a favorite actor of mine, but he did do several movies and TV shows that I liked, which balanced all the performances I didn’t like of his. This movie, The Hanged Man from 1974, is somewhat in the middle.
If you didn’t know it, the film …
Meet the Parents - (2000)
Have you guys ever watch Meet the Parents starring Ben Stiller before? It is super hilarious and this is the movie before Meet the Fockers, which I have reviewed not so long ago.
Ben Stiller fits the bill for this type of roles and this is the part …

I really liked the movie What about Bob?. I think Bill Murray was very funny as the character of Bob. Bob is a guy who has mental problems and has to go see a shrink. He also is very paranoid and scared of everything. I think it’s very funny when …
Diary of a Mad Black Woman

The movie, which centers around a bear who was raised by humans but …

The Orphanage
I watched a film on DVD recently called The Orphanage. I was attracted to this film for two reasons, one being that it is all in Spanish and I love foreign films, but the other, more important reason, was that it is made by Guillermo Del Toro, the same …
Movie The Aviator
The Aviator is an extremely long movie starring Leonardo Dicaprio. In the film he portrays Howard Hughes, and although I normally do not like super long movies, this one is kinda good. I will state a fact, Leonardo Dicarprio can not consider me a fan of his work. I don’t …
