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 …
The Blair Witch Project (movie)
The Blair Witch Project is a cool, underground film about a group of students who go into the New England forests to make a documentary film about the Blair Witch. Now, I have to confess that the first time I saw The Blair Witch Project, I believe that the …
Separate Lies movie
Separate Lies was released in 2005 and I knew as soon as it started that I probably wouldn’t like it. For one thing, the list of actors, overall, aren’t my style. Tom Wilkinson, for example, supposedly as talent, but he bores me, not to mention he’s often …
Murder on the Orient Express movie
In my opinion the by far best adaptation of a detective story by Agatha Christie, in which Albert Finney appears as the genius detective Hercule Poirot.

The Roommate (2011 Movie)
I knew The Roommate wasn’t going to be a spectacular film or even an original horror from the trailer, but the trailers made it look like a fun horror movie to go see with friends. Although the dialogue is terrible and the movie is extremely predictable if you’ve ever …
The Cell movie
This is probably one of the most imaginative and daring films to come along in years. Granted, the basic plot has been done over and over before (finding a serial killer), but in this case, the road toward getting from point A to point Z is what matters. …
Movie Rocky
Rocky came out in 1976 and was written by and stars Sylvester Stallone. It is a movie that has inspired me most of my life. It’s about an average, unknown boxer who gets a shot at the Heavyweight Championship.

Friends sitcom
I’m not quite sure just how many seasons this show was on but surely too many. For me it’s really boring to follow what is happening to the same group of six people for so many years. One thing is for sure, initially, it was quite a good show …

The Devil & Daniel Webster Movie
You won’t see Hollywood make this type of a movie today, oh no. It’s got “religion” in it, you see, the characters go to church and read their Bible, and all that is taken seriously, no one makes fun of them for it. God-fearing people are actually presented as …

Rocket Science movie

Living in Oblivion
I’m not a huge Steve Buscemi fan. I’ve always thought he was better as a character actor in a small role than a lead actor. But, I got a chance to watch his 1995 film “Living in Oblivion” and was admittedly impressed with it.
I never heard of this movie …
