The Dark Knight
I absolutely enjoyed The Dark Knight. I went to the movie thinking that this was just going to be another action packed movie that was ripped from the pages of a comic book, but boy was I wrong. I like the character change they made for Alfred because he …

The Final Destination movie
We decided to rent the fourth Final Destination movie The Final Destination on Saturday. I’m not sure why we thought it would be as good as the first two (or even the crappy third one), but it proved to be somewhat of a mistake.
The movie had a plot that …
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
I picked up the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine as a movie that I figured would be halfway entertaining but would lack when compared to other X-Men films. It turns out it was one of the better movies I’ve seen.
Hugh Jackman is great as Wolverine, a mutant with the ability …

Movie Recycle
This is a crazy movie; some people would say that it is weird and that they didn’t understand it. Honestly I think that this is the type of movie where you either like it or you don’t. I just thought it was overall crazy and honestly I don’t even …
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (movie)
I am not, and have never been a fan of the Stephenie Meyer series, especially since I consider myself as a fan of the classic vampire folklore. However, I was forced to see it when it was still showing in theatres since nothing else I was even a quarter …
Happy Feet Movie
My one year old daughter absolutely loves this movie. We have the DVD and I believe we have watched this movie atleast twenty times. She adores the dancing and singing and gets the happy feet herself as she dances non stop to the musicals. I myself love the humor …
Cranberry Christmas
I’m a sap for holiday tradition, and that includes all the animated classics. This year, Ocean Spray bring us a new cartoon with a Christmas theme. Entitled “Cranberry Christmas”, the cartoon is based on a popular book of the same name. What I like about it is …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This past weekend I went to see “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”. I have always loved the Indiana Jones movies, own the first three on DVD. I went into the theater expecting something spectacular and I was not disappointed. For being a two-hour movie, it …

The cast includes Nastassja Kinski, Michael Shanks, Andrea Roth, and …
BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN DVD
I loved the movie “Brokeback Mountain” as I paid attention to the fact that it was very subtle in giving the decade that each part was to be about. In the sixties, being gay was totally taboo. Men did marry, so as not to appear gay. If the men …
Flashdance
“Flashdance” was a popular movie released in the early eighties. I think of it as a classic since even now from time to time people still make pop culture references to the movie and some of the most famous scenes in it. Another one of the things that made …
Movie Help Me Help You
Help Me Help You with Ted Danson.
I never thought very highly of Ted Danson’s acting on TV, but he has shown me a more effective portrayal in this series. I think that the difference is the similarity to his Cheers days in which he …

X-Men 3: The Last Stand

The Gravedancers
The title of this movie, The Gravedancers is very scary already. I screamed like a mad woman on some really scary scenes. I would warn viewers out there to bring all your sweater jackets, shawl, some warm drinks and good peanuts as the more this movie gets …
Night of the Living Dead (1990 Remake)
Gore maestro Tom Savani takes over directorial duties in this remake of Romero’s classic zombie movie.
There’s no monumental changes with this new version. It’s shot in colour, the gores a bit more impressive (but surprisingly much more played down considering Savani’s involvement) but there’s some tinkering about with …
Julie & Julia movie
There’s nothing not to like about Nora Ephron’s Julie & Julia. I really enjoyed this film. Of course, it made me hungry just watching it.
Amy Adams does a great job as a young woman desperate to create a niche for herself in the and indirectly finding it with …

My Fair Lady: A Film by George Cukor (1964)
My Fair Lady is definitely one of the best Audrey Hepburn films to date. I’m not enthralled by the designer, Ralph Lauren and his bygone collection inspired from this musical film. But it aroused my interest to watch it anyway. All its posters in Technicolor suggested …
Candyman movie
A woman scientist investigates the legend of Candyman, a black man who was murdered a hundred years ago and his said to haunt a certain neighbourhood and claim the revenge for his death.
I am split in my opinions regarding this film. On one hand it is a very well …
Step Up Movie
This is actually a pretty old movie and the first movie that I had ever seen Channing Tatum in. Now, he is more popular than ever, but when this movie came out, I don’t think he was all that popular. Anyway, this is probably the movie that picked up …

Big City movie
I saw Big City for the first time this week, and I just loved it. It’s a warm, sweet, tender family drama, though it couldn’t happen in today’s society. Back when it was filmed in 1948, I suppose it could have been possible.
The adorable and ultra talented …
Knight of Cups (2016 Film)
I had a really tough time getting through Terrence Malick’s well-known film The Tree of Life when it was released. The first time I watched it I didn’t lasted for 15 minutes. I immediately turned it off because I thought it was nothing but a pretentious show-off. I kept hearing …
The Butler (2013 Film)
The Butler is one of those movies that I like to call a quiet movie that’s meant for winding down. You don’t turn on this kind of movie, ready for action or something intensely graphic to happen. It’s a movie that tells you a deep rooted story. My review …
That Girl - Season Three DVD set
That Girl’s Season Three DVD set is the least packed of the first three sets in terms of bonus material. Shout Factory has kept the same packaging theme and style as the others. It’s colorful and features the famous silhouette of Marlo Thomas as That Girl that …
Erin Brokovich
I have adored Julia Roberts since Pretty Woman and Sleeping with the Enemy. I had seen Erin Brokovich when I was in my teens and although I enjoyed the movie, I did not really understood it. I had an opportunity to watch it during my own free time and …
Wuthering Heights movie
Is there any greater love story than Wuthering Heights? Well, there may be but Wuthering Heights truly is one of the best. The movie adaptation of the book was filmed in 1939 and no matter how much time passes, this film is a classic. Wuthering Heights stars the magnificent …
Bridge to Terabithia
I watched Bridge to Terabithia ready to get bored and be repulsed with the little knowledge I have about the film. Thanks to false advertising (equivalent to the preview showing the CGI effects), my impression on the film beforehand was that it was going to be another-kiddy-fantasy knock-off.
Still, I …
The Ruins (Movie )
The Ruins was a complete waste of time, which was sad because I really wanted to see it. I kept seeing the movie advertised and telling my friends how good I thought it was. I’ve never read the book the film was based on, but now that I’ve seen …
Young Einstein movie
I’ve been watching a lot of older movies lately; ones that came out when I was in junior high or high school. And, I’m finding that some of them are just as funny as they were when I first saw them.
The movie Young Einstein is one of those movies.
This …
Mirrors film
MIRRORS starring Kiefer Sutherland, Paula Patton, Cameron Boyce, Erica Gluck, Amy Smart, Mary Beth Peil, John Shrapnel and Jason Flemyng was a great movie. I do not know if I should classify it as a horror, thriller or suspense movie, but I can classify it as a must see …
Dark Knight Rises movie
And so it ends, the “greatest superhero trilogy of all time”(TM). In 2005, Nolan introduced us to his very tormented take on Batman, the focus being on Bruce Wayne and - the trilogy’s overarching theme - fear. Then, in 2008, he upped the stakes with the epic Dark Knight, …
50 First Dates movie
I must admit, at first I thought that this movie, 50 First Dates is just another love story with a touch of comedy and humor. But I was wrong. Maybe others are looking at this movie that way, but for me, it is also a story of a great …
Brainscan Movie
Brainscan is an older horror movie but an very powerful one. I love Brainscan because it shows us the future we are loving now with 3D virtual reality video games that seem and feel so real to the player. I really liked the cool story about the evil haunted video …

Ed Wood movie
Tim Burton’s lovely portrait of the bizarre director Ed Wood comes to life with an amazing Johnny Depp in the leading role and Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi. I don’t know if everything in this film is the truth, but it sure is very convincing and enjoyable, much thanks …
Ouija (2014 Film)
Ouija was another one of those scary movies that was released closer to Halloween. Mostly with the intentions of keeping up with the spirit of scares. I was initially skeptic in the beginning when viewing the trailer one evening on TV. In my mind I had already …
Happy Feet ( childrens movie )
My daughter rented this childrens movie last night. My grandkids have been dying to see Happy Feet, and they were not dissapointed.
This is a very cute and funny animated movie about Emperor Penguins, who are born to sing . The actors in Happy feet are : Robin Willams, Hugh …
