Land of the Dead (2005) Movie
Land of the Dead is the fourth zombie film directed by the master of zombies, George A. Romero. I am not overly familiar with Romero’s previous movies to be honest. My favourite all time zombie movie is Return of the Living Dead which has a lot of …
Ghost Ship
Oh my God, that was a great movie. I haven’t seen Ghost Ship in ages and finally got a chance to watch it late last night.
My wife hates this movie even though she usually likes horror films. The whole thing, which is about a shipwreck that is discovered and …
The Mark of Zorro Movie
When I was a kid, I was a huge Zorro fan. The reason for this was the old black and white movie The Mark of Zorro. I got a chance to watch this movie again today and, even after all these years and after seeing it quite a few …
The Wolverine (2013 film)
I decided to watch the Wolverine one evening after hearing so many things about it. Initially I was late on finding out that there was going to be a new movie featuring the wolverine. To be honest, I don’t remember hearing anything about up it until a couple of …
Drag Me to Hell
For a catchy title, I don’t really find this movie that scary at all. My boyfriend loves it though. Drag Me to Hell has its fair share of horror but I don’t think I enjoy the movie very much. The curse plot looks good in the beginning …
Film “Extraordinary Measures” (2010)
Extraordinary measures is different from other movies you typically see because it is a true story and was based on a non fiction book about how a father raised money for research to find a cure for his sons. When watching this film I had wondered if it …

Barracuda by Philippe Haim
French cinema has always been boring to me. However, I cannot say so for Barracuda. This French thriller is absolutely disturbing and I do not recommend it for sensitive souls. The beginning is calm but then it is followed by a merciless duel between the two main characters.
Mr Clement …
The Smoking Room movie
This show follows a group of smokers from a run of the mill office building in London. Each episode is shown in real time, the thirty minutes we see told continuously. The action never veers away from the smoking room itself, instead characters come and go.
It’s a simple …
Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie
I love Twilight’s third installment, Eclipse. I rather enjoyed watching it. I think I find it better than the first two because I find more action in it. After all, the vampire and the werewolf camps have to team up together to fight a new foe, …
Percy Jackson & the Lightning Thief Movie (2010)
This seemed like a real cool movie when we saw the trailer at the theatre but it didn’t seem like my cup of tea because it’s more suitable for teenagers, but since I have lots of free movie passes, I decided to watch and try this movie.
The movie is …
Fear and Desire movie
Fear and Desire is one of Stanley Kubrick’s first full feature films, and it tells an anti-war story about an american squadron during World War II getting involved in the most horrific events. The film shows the absolutely darkest side of a war situation and does it without maing …
Awake (R, 2007)
I am definitely not a huge Jessica Alba fan. But I wanted to see this movie mainly because I was unsure how the director would put a spin on �anesthetic awareness��a condition that causes people undergoing surgery to feel pain and be conscious, but unable to move …

Strangler’s Wood movie
I am reviewing the murder mystery movie, Strangler’s Wood, starring John Nettles and Daniel Casey. This film was made in 1999, was produced by Brian True-May and Betty Willingale, and is based on the novels written by author Caroline Graham.
Strangler’s Wood is a movie that revolves around the mysterious …
The Five movie
The Five was a movie I happened to find while looking through adventure and fantasy films to order from Netflix. I had never heard of the actors or director but it sounded interesting so I gave it a try. The intro and credits portion was extremely long …
Mean Girls (2004 Film)
“Mean Girls” the movie that hit big screens in 2004, was and still is a movie that is referred to by not only teenagers and young adults, but by adults as well. In my high school math class, two years after this movie came out, the math teacher called …
Maneater (2008)

High School Musical 2 movie
With the enormous success of High School Musical, Disney quickly made a sequel called appropriately enough High School Musical 2. Not messing with success, it’s basically the same cast, led by teen almost-sensations, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. The movie starts as summer break is about to …
Half Nelson
I am reviewing the 2006 movie, Half Nelson starring Ryan Gosling. Half Nelson revolves around a school teacher who is a favorite among his students. His class is always active with humor and fun, and everyone loves him…everyone except him. Ryan Gosling’s character smokes pot and does …
My Fair Lady
1964’s My Fair Lady is definitely a movie classic. It’s a musical that continues to touch those who view it. It’s well made and excellently portrayed.
Rex Harrison stars as Professor Henry Higgens, with Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle. One must wonder if the picture would have …

Wedding Wars is about gay entirely. This movie is about 2 brothers, whom have a so called clash, as his brother was about to marry a Governor’s daughter, and his future father-in-law requested that he opposed gay marriages, which offends Shel, played by Stamos.
Stamos is certainly a dishy …
Dumbo
As Ward Kimball, on of Disney’s long-time animators and one of the Nine Old Men said about Dumbo, it ‘had great simplicity and cartoon heart.’ I think it is these two elements which talk to me whenever I see this movie. Before hearing Kimball’s comment, I never thought of …

The Immigrant movie
Charlie Chaplin plays an honest man who immigrates to America. As soon as he reaches the new country he runs in to trouble immedietly.
I think this is one of Chaplin’s most underrated short films. The story has a nearly perfect balance between hysterical physical humour and social criticism, and …
Scooby Doo on Zombie Island
I’m not normally a fan of Scooby Doo movies that don’t follow the classic format of the ghost really being someone in disguise. But, I will say I did like Scooby Doo on Zombie Island.
This movie, which has Scooby and the gang investigating a haunting on a Louisiana Island …
Addams Family Movie
The bizarre Addams family awaits their beloved uncle Fester to return from his travels. What they don’t notice when he arrives is that crooks have taken his identity for mysterious purposes.
