The Day The Earth Stood Still
Director- Scott Dickerson
Cast- Keanu Reeves(Klaatu), Jennifer Connelly(Dr.Helen Benson), John Cleese(Noble prize winner Environmentalist)
This film is a remake of a 1951 classic science fiction film of the same name. Although most of the critics here in India gave it negative reviews my opinion stands otherwise. According to me this is …
The Gnome-Mobile
Here is another Disney treasure from my past. I can still remember seeing this movie as a double feature at the drive-in movies, growing up in Southern California. What made it Disney was its comic sequences, and its stock character actors, namely Ed Wynn, Karen Dotrice and Matthew Garber, …
The Rum Diary (2011 film)
This turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment. As a fan of Hunter S. Thompson, upon whose 1961 novel this film is based, and the movie’s lead, Johnny Depp, I was expecting something far zanier and more entertaining (the obvious touchstone being 1998’s “Fear and Loathing in Las …
Ida (2013 Foreign Film)
Very rare of me to watch foreign films (films that are not in the English language) so when I do, I always make it sure that I’m going to have a good time with it. Today I choose to watch a 2013 Polish film called “Ida” because first, it won …
Pride and Prjudice 2006
It is very rare that I see a movie of a book that I have read and that I like it. This movie, Pride and Prejudice starring Kiera Knightly was an exception. The film work was exceptional, the acting was superb, and the costumes were stunning. This is another …
Octopussy movie
Bond returns yet again on a dangerous mission, in what part of the series I haven’t even ben able to count. Still featured by Roger Moore who’s reaching the age of 50 by this time, Bond goes to India to defeat a dangerous villain who’s making threats to the …
Movie Public Enemies
I am a huge Johnny Depp fan, and also love historically-based movies. I looked forward to seeing Public Enemies, a movie starring Johnny Depp and Marion Cotillard (another of my favourite actresses), because I had read a lot about John Dillinger, the famous bank robber during the Depression years. …
The Little Mermaid
This is one of my most love animation movies. I saw this film when I was still a child and I enjoyed watching it so much. This movie made my imagination work and also left me a lot of lessons. Although 3D animation was not yet that advance at …

Disney’s remake of the cartoon series into real life with animation. In this movie, a dog assigned to the bomb squad makes his entrance by falsely detecting a bomb that turns out to be a leg of ham. Disgraced by his findings, he left the force after a series …
Red Sky Movie
Red Sky is a documentary that takes a look into bible prophecy and the relevance it has on our world today. Chuck Missler teaches the signs of prophecy in a fascinating way weather the topic is Weapons Proliferation or Global Religion that are coming to a history near you. …
The Fugitive thriller
The Fugitive is one of the best thrillers films I’ve seen. Never have I sat through the whole film without taking bathroom breaks or even a quick trip to the fridge. Here, Harrison Ford played Dr. Richard Kimble, a prominent doctor convicted of murdering his wife. He is co-starred …
Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy movie
The old version from the early 1980s, taken from the classic novel by Douglas Adams about Arthur Dent and his dear friend Ford Prefect who go together on a cosmic journey through the galaxy and meets the most curious species. I have also seen the new version that came …
Who Shot Patakango? movie
From 1989, Who Shot Patakango? is a sort of odd coming of age movie about teenagers attending high school in Brooklyn, New York. The star of note was Sandra Bullock as Devlin Moran. Following are some thoughts on this production.
–I actually saw this movie years ago, but …
The Hot Chick Movie
This movie is one of Rob Schneider’s movie and I have seen this a couple of times on HBO already but I still want to watch it every time it’s being shown. It also features Anna Faris and Rachel McAdams when they were still not famous and I really …
Hannah Montana: The movie
As embarrassed as I am to admit I actually watched this movie, I have to say that it was not as bad as I expected it to be. In fact, when I first heard that there would be a movie for that silly show that many of my younger …
Gran Torino movie
I am reviewing the movie, Gran Torino, starring Clint Eastwood. This movie was made in 2008, and was produced and directed by Clint Eastwood.
Clint Eastwood plays a Korean War vet named Walt Kowalski. He is a cranky, irritable old man who has little time for the people …
Incredible Hulk Season One
The Incredible Hulk Season One was a really cool series and unlike a number of first seasons on other television programs, the Hulk was a GREAT series right out of the staring gate. In fact, some of the first season programs are among the classics of the series. (The …

Ghost Rider Movie
Ghost Rider is one of my favorite comic book movies of all time. I never read the comics, so I don’t know if it follows those very well or not, but I still like it. The movie has just the right amount of action and humor, mixed with only …
Axe (Movie)
The movie catches the common viewer’s attention rather quickly. I’m someone who has a hard time getting into movies which don’t take off quickly.. and this movie is a classic example of the complete opposite.
PLOT
The movie more-or-less has 2 plots, these include entirely seperate events, but eventually unfold and …
Australia movie
The main actress of the movie “Australia”, Nicole Kidman described it as “the Australian version of Gone with the Wind”. I like to think that “Australia” is a cross version between two modern movies - “Titanic” and “Peal Harbour” - because the movie concept seems to thread on the …
I Am Legend
I must admit, I have never been much of a Will Smith fan…until this movie. With so few human interaction scenes (for most of the movie, he is with a dog), he pulled off the lonely, depressed person very well. The storyline is amazing and, at the …
Columbo: Undercover movie
In Columbo: Undercover, Ed Begley Jr guest stars as Irving Krutch, insurance investigator. We get 5 minutes of him in this offbeat role. He wore me out and he bore me at the same time. I lost interest in his shenanigans in his overdone storytelling. …

What Dreams May Come is a unique movie. It stars Robin Williams, Cuba Gooding,Jr. and Annabella Sciorra. “After Robin Williams dies in an accident, he tries to remain close to his wife, Annabella Sciorra. With the friendly spirit, Cuba Gooding,Jr. assigned to guide him, explains what is going on …
Beauty Shop movie
I had always seen the movie “Beauty Shop” being advertised on the television guide, but I never took much notice of it until one Saturday when I had nothing else to watch. I always had the impression that it was going to be a stupid and overrated movie starring …

ABD Family’s Original Movie “Cyberbully” (2011 Film)
ABS Family came out with a movie in 2011 called Cyberbully. And I have to just say that this movie went beyond my expectations and brought viewers the type of movie that focuses on a key issue effecting young teens. I was surprised at how relatable the film was …
Movie Intolerable Cruelty

I believe that “Iron Man” is the best super hero movie for this year. What is really interesting about this movie is that it brings two great actors Robert Downey Junior and Gwyneth Partlow together on big screen for a great movie blockbuster.
In an interview, …
Godzilla Vs. Destroyer
When I was growing up, Godzilla was the ultimate movie monster. After seeing a more recent version of the series, Godzilla Vs. Destroyer, I am starting to see why he never won an Oscar.
The plot of the movie itself was decent. He once again has to fight a monster, …

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003 Movie)

Cleaner, thriller film
Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Eva Mendes make up a stellar cast that didn’t make it too big in theaters. Cleaner feels a lot like an episode of CSI, a television show that has millions of viewers each and every week. With its CSI qualities there is more …
Blazing Saddles (1974)
I think Blazing Saddles is one of the best comedy films ever made and although people often say that ‘High Society’ is Mel Brooks’s best film, for me this is the best. This is a satirical film, which is a fact that some people seem to miss, which …
