The Dungeonmaster (VHS), science fiction film
What better way to start a movie than with a guy on a bed, looking to be pleasuring himself by movement? How about adding in that guy chasing a woman wearing a red dress through an abandon jail? Better yet take those and add the woman undressing herself, then …
Coraline movie
My roommate was under the mistaken impression that this was a Tim Burton film. In actuality, Tim Burton had nothing to do with it, but you can see why he would be under that impression.
The movie is based off of a novel by Neil Gaiman, of “Sandman” fame. …
Who am I Movie

A film with Jackie Chan in …
Movie: The Pursuit of Happyness
“The Pursuit of Happyness” is a wonderful film, inspired by the true life story of Chris Garner, who managed to survive with his five-year-old son in early 1980s San Francisco while working his way through an unpaid six-month intership to become a stock broker.
Will Smith is spectacular as Chris, …
Mr. Nobody, movie
This movie follows the life and stories of Nemo Nobody, played by Jared Leto. The visuals and story telling in this movie is some of the best I have ever seen, not to mention the music used at many points in the film fit perfectly with the scenes they are …
Robin Hood: Men in Tights movie
I love Mel Brooks movies and I have to say Robin Hood: Men in Tights has to be his very best film.
Cary Elwes puts on a very good performance as Robin Hood and, even though this is a parody, may actually be the best Robin Hood I’ve ever seen …
Movie The Prince and Me
“The Prince and Me” is the romantic movie that made the actress, Julia Stiles even more popular after her roles in important teen movies like “10 Things I Hate About You” and “Save the Last Dance”.
“The Prince and Me” is a cute movie about Paige (Stiles) and Edward, a …
Fright Night Movie
A couple of days ago I had the pleasure to watch again the remake of the 1985 film “Fright Night” , another remake of an old movie with Colin Farrell in one of the main roles. I liked it as much as the first time and let me tell …
Twilight Movie
I have so much to say about this movie, and everybody reading this review will either hate me or love me for it. I’m going to mention from the start that I did not like it at all, and most of this review will be everything that I did …
When a Stranger Calls
When this movie came out I was working my braing to find out exactly why the name sounded familiar to me, and then later on I realised that the movie was based off of a previous movie which was released in the late seventies and I had watched some …
You Changed My Life movie
It was Wednesday night, on the second week of the movie. I would have expected the cinema to be empty. But no, it was jam-packed a clear sign that the movie was a hit.
I have to give my praise to the scriptwriter of “You Changed My Life” …
Shrek 3
I have always firmly believed that after the second part of a movie, everybody should give up bravely and look for other ideas instead of milking the movie’s earlier successes to death as can be seen in the likes of Robocop, Scream, etc but back to Shrek 3.
Last week, …
Out movie
Out, aka: Deadly Drifter, from 1982 is, well, strange. I’m not even sure how to describe the plot, if there was a plot. This collection of scenes had a unique start in how the title was present, and I give it points for that. However, considering …
Hancock
Does Will Smith ever make a bad movie? Other than Ali, I mean. I watched his movie Hancock tonight and, when I got it I didn’t think it was going to be any good. It turned out to be a great film.
The movie takes a different point of view …
Gladiator
“Gladiator” is the director’s, Ridley Scott blogbuster that made the then unknown actor, Russell Crowe a much sought out actor in Hollywood. It is a true pity that, although this movie won 5 Oscars, Scott failed to win the best director category. He was very much disappointed for not …
The Descent movie
Neil Marshall may have amassed a cult following with his previous horror effort “Dog Soldiers”, but with The Descent, he really hits his stride as a horror maestro in the makings.
Unlike his testosterone drenched werewolf vs. soldier movie, this time Marshall instead goes the all girl route; offering …
Barry Lyndon Movie
Stanley Kubrick is one exception of a filmmaker who actually was just as popular with the audience and critics with almost all of his films. Despite that fact he was never a commercial director and always but the artistic vision before the entertainment. Barry Lyndon is slow, poetic retelling …
Harold and kumar go to white castle
One day I watched this movie because I was really bored and it was on television. It wasn’t that good at all. I think I might have laughed once or twice. Most of the time I like movies about this or that are like this. This movie though made …
Blue Crush film
This film is awesome. I loved it. It is a chick flick starring Kate Bosworth (The hottie that went out with Orlando Bloom)The film itself is about surfing and a massive competition that she wants to win…
Of course there is a love interest and she gets a bit sidetracked. …
Pacific Heights
Lately I have been watching movies on lifetime and lifetime movie network and most of them have been pretty good. One that I want to recommend is called Pacific Heights. It has Melanie Griffith and Micheal Keaton in it. It’s about a guy who rents a room from this …
Cabin Fever movie
36 years ago a wacky cult movie called I Drink Your Blood, about hippies in an isolated area infected with rabies going on a rampage, delighted audiences with its audacious and over the top wackiness.
Here, we have a film of a similar theme, but it isn’t a delight. It’s …

The main character Oscar, played by Will Smith is the center of attraction, he comes across a shark that was killed by an anchor and he takes the glory for killing the shark all to himself. When word of his shark slaying heroisms reach home, the welcome him with …
Meet the Spartans
Normally, I like movies that spoof other movies; everything from Scary movie to pretty much anything made by Mel Brooks. But, after watching Meet the Spartans last night, I no longer can say I like all movies in that genre.
The thing about Meet the Spartans is it had the …
Erin Brokovich
Erin Brokovich is the story of a single mom with 3 kids struggling to make ends meet. The beginning of the movie shows her effort to find a job but in the process she finds that her mediocre skills and lack of education are not what people are …

Some kind of Hong Kong action movie that …
The Odd Couple
Coming from the mind of Neil Simon, 1968’s The Odd Couple was a pure delight. Simon created two opposing characters in Felix Unger, a photographer, and Oscar Madison, a sports writer. Unger was neat to an extreme, while Madison was the king of mess. Having these …
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 …
Warlock movie
I found this movie a lot of fun. It seems to me a mixture of genres: a little bit fantasy with the magic, a little bit action with all the running around and a little bit horror with the bad guy killing people. The movie is well made and …
Black Beauty, the Movie
Black Beauty, Anna Sewell’s classic novel about the life and hardships of a black stallion in a 1870s England, proved to be a timeless piece of literature that would soon find its way onto the big screen. The sequence of events throughout the novel takes just as much importance …
House Of Wax Movie
The movie House of Wax was kind of disappointing, especially considering all the hype around it just because Paris Hilton was in it. It was really disappointing, as it almost kind of made you hope she could do something besides….well we all heard about the videos. Elisha Cuthbert and …

Dawn of the Dead (2004) is a horror film directed by Zack Snyder and is rated R for pervasive strong horror violence and gore, language and sexuality.
Dawn of the Dead is a remake of the classic zombie film by legendary director George A. Romero. When the world becomes …
Parents movie
Parents is a very old scary movie. But by todays standards it’s looked upon as a comedy instead of a horror movie. It’s a very dark yet funny movie. I guess that is why it’s called a dark comedy. But when I watched this film as a kid, I thought …
Angels in the Outfield
One of the movies which I can remember was released in the nineteen nineties was the movie “Angels in the Outfield”. It was one of the movies I loved as a child since it was a children’s movie with a very interesting plot. It was not one of those …
Werewolves, Vampires and Zombies dvd
I like some of the classic horror movies, so when I got this dvd from someone I was expecting more of a few of those from the nineteen thirties, forties and sixties. However, when I looked on it I realised that a lot of them were old horror movies, …
Things We Lost in the Fire (R, 2007) movie
I was expecting a little bit of over-acting from Halle Berry, and perhaps even a bit too much gratuitous skin. There was indeed a lot of skin in this movie. But most of the skin shown was on the face–close-ups of the actors for long periods of …
Star Wars: Episode 2- Attack of the Clones
Well, I can say one good thing about Attack of the Clones, it was better than The Phantom Menace! (I said that in my sarcastic voice by the way). First off, the relationship between Anakin and Padma is probably one of the worst relationships every put on …
John Q: Movie
John Q has been a favourite of mine for years; it is a great demonstration of how you can combine family drama and a little bit of action thrown in too.
I think the plot is brilliant and, before things kick off, gives you a very emotional opinion of the …
The Social Network Movie (2010)
This movie is called The Social Network and it features the real-life story behind the billionaires of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin. This movie is really dramatic and when I watched this the movie house was all filled and I was surprised that Facebook has become so popular …

“Addicted to Love” is all about the actors, Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick going wild with revenge. Although this is a romantic comedy, Ryan chose to interpret a different character then the usual ‘nice girl from next door’.
The story of “Addicted to Love” is about Sam (Broderick) and Maggie …
Jockey (documentary)
I love horses and I love to ride. I’m also found of Thoroughbreds, especially those horses retired from the race track. I also enjoy watching the Kentucky Derby and the other big Thoroughbred races. I knew that it would be hard to be a jockey, but I had no …

When We Were Soldiers stars Mel Gibson in one of the best movies I’ve ever seen depicting the Vietnam War. The storyline is great, the scenes are even better. If you are looking for action packed movie then this will definitely not fail you. This must’ve been …
