How the Grinch Stole Christmas
The movie “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” was the first Dr. Seuss live action film I have ever seen. It starred the actor Jim Carrey and it came out when I was still a teenager in high school. I can remember that the movie was so popular that there …

While the children Sleep Movie
I watched this movie on lifetime the other night. Overall it was pretty good but there were a couple of parts that I wish they would have done differently. For instance, there was one part that showed a girl trying to suffocate another girl but they never reveal if …
War of the Worlds: Movie
War of the Worlds is one of my favourite alien invasion films; I thought it was really well made.
Besides having all the ingredients to make a got alien picture, such as the budget, the actors and the CGI; they also managed to capture what I find to be rather …
Beauty and The Beast: Blu Ray Edition
One of my all time favourite child hood movies is Beauty and The Beast, so when it came out as a blu-ray edition over The Christmas period I jumped at the chance to be able to purchase it.
With the package came three separate DVD’s. The movie in …
Erin Brokovich Movie
I saw this movie twice and was very impressed by Julia Roberts’ acting. She isn’t one of my favorites, which I don’t think is her fault. Since ‘Pretty Woman’ she has been a bit typecast. Most movies I’ve seen her in have been very light and …

Picture Perfect
I’m not sure what it is about Jennifer Aniston movies, but, whenever I see them, I just can’t stay focused on them.
Her movie Picture Perfect, which I saw for the first time on Sunday, is a perfect example of this. It’s a feel-good love story but I honestly think …
Movie The Craving (1980)
Released as El Retorno del Hombre-Lobo in Spain, Paul Naschy opted to remake his greatest success, The Werewolf’s Shadow, to recoup the cash that he lost on his previous non-werewolf films. It didn’t work out. The film was a major failure and it bankrupted Naschy’s company.
What a shame as …
Prom Night movie
In the first place, Prom Night is a not a funny and romantic comedy about a high-school prom night filled with friends and love. Yes, the movie is filled with friends, to be exact the character Donna’s friends, but this movie is all scary and a thriller! …
America’s Sweethearts movie
It took me a very long time to actually sit down and watch the movie America’s Sweethearts since I’ve never been a big fan of the actress Julia ROberts because I’m so used to seeing her in romance movies, and frankly, she has never held my attention. Thus, …

The Fugitive movie
Starring Harrison Ford as a doctor framed for the murder of his wife, and Tommy Lee Jones as the Federal Marshall with a die-hard devotion in catching his man. It is intense and action packed with unexpected twists and turns. It’s not really a thinking man’s movie as we …
Pulp Fiction (1994)
There is no other movie like Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction.” It is definitely at the top of my favorites list. This movie is chocked full of best talent that Hollywood has to offer. With big names like Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Uma Thurman and …
Lost Boys: The Tribe
My boyfriend loved Lost Boys so when Lost Boys: The Tribe came out on Tuesday we made a trip to Wal-mart to get it. The DVD cost around $20.
First of all I’ll start with the cover. It is neat. You look at it in one …
Burlesque movie
I was very excited when I first saw the preview for this movie. I mean really you can’t go wrong when you combine the powerhouse voice of Christina Aguilera and a legend like Cher. I was expecting a spectacular movie, filled with visually stimulating dance routines, costumes, songs, and …
Robot & Frank (2012)
This is a movie about an elderly man. Yes, it’s got a robot in it and, yes, the old man used to be a cat burglar, but it’s still a movie about an old person. That may not excite some of the younger generation. But for those of us …
Sword in the Stone
I am reviewing the Disney film, Sword in the Stone. Young Arthur works in a place where he is not welcome, nor wanted. He is treated like dirt, and is completely misunderstood. He wants to be a squire more than anything, but he’s got a lot of …
The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything (2008)

Sherlock Holmes movie
From 2009, it’s Robert Downey Jr. starring in Sherlock Holmes and playing the well-known sleuth. Here are a few of my observations.
–The best thing about the movie is the music. It’s powerful and dramatic. It highlights all of the happenings very well. It makes you …
Murder on the Orient Express movie
I’ve never seen Murder on the Orient Express before, though I’ve often heard about it and have seen many commercials promoting various incarnations of it over the years. I’ve been curious about the Agatha Christie story for a long time, but for whatever reason never actually sat down …
Taken: Movie
Taken is one of the best movies that I saw last year, and certainly one of my favourites of the thriller genre.
The plot of a kidnapping or of a heroic dad rescuing his daughter is nothing new, but the script really makes it into something special.
I thought that the …

Men in Black 3 (movie)
One of the movies that I watched this summer was “Men in Black 3”, starring the first movie’s original actors, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. I have to admit that before I saw it, I was somewhat eager to watch the movie being that the plot sounded very …
Thor (movie)
One of the movies I had been looking forward to seeing since 2010 was the movie “Thor”. This was not only because I’m a big comic book fan, but because it sounded like it was going to be big from the start. When I watched it for the first …

Eve’s Hot Pepper Sauce

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”.

Interstellar (science fiction drama movie)
Initially I was torn between wanting to watch Interstellar and actually watching it, because I’d read a lot of bad reviews about it on the internet. Some reviewers including one of my good friends who has a similar taste as mine in movies, claimed it was terrible, hyped up and …
Star Wars: Episode 3- Revenge of the Sith
OK, so I absolutely bashed the first two prequels in the series. And while Episode 3 does deserve some hate, it’s not near the level of hate I gave to the first two. Hayden Christiansen still can’t act and he and Natalies relationship is still one of …
Umberto D movie

Swiss Army Man (2016 Fantasy Comedy Film)
Few movies try to bring something new these days. Most of the time people flock to the movie theaters to see tired and unnecessary rehashes of old films or either comic book movies that have been made to death. Everyone wants a blockbuster with big names attached to them.
Movies like …

Alien Vs. Predator: Requiem
I love movies. I love them. They are one my passions in life. “Alien” and “Aliens”, along with “Predator” are incredibly frightening, hardcore movies which I enjoy with every bit of fanboyish delight that they deserve. So it would make sense that if you take …
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
The other day I had nothing to do so I called a couple of my friends to go out and watch a movie. We got to the Famous Players at Metropolis and watched Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World; a movie I had been dying to see. The movie is …
Phone Booth (starring Colin Farrell)
Have you ever heard the saying one phone call is all it takes to make a difference? Well, I watched Phone Booth before and this pretty much sums up what I just said. Watching this movie before, after the show had ended, I thought that it is pretty …
Inception Movie
Inception has climbed to charts as #3 on imbd top 250 movies of all time. According to the majority vote, Inception is more popular then the amazing, and mind blowing “The Godfather Part II”. Now why is this film so good?

Up film
Up is another one of those animated films from Pixar that comes out every so often that we feel we’re too old for but end up watching anyhow. At least, that’s how I usually feel about animated films these days.
Up is about an old man, Carl Fredricksen who …
Take the Lead movie
I didn’t know that Antonio Banderas can dance and ballroom dancing for that matter. When I saw his movie, Take the Lead, I was pretty impressed with the talent he has showed off in the movie. He has a great body and it looks so right with those sexy …

Benjamin Button Movie
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, though seemingly interesting, was a boring movie and a chick flick all the way. Why am I so blunt? Because the movie did not have any conflict, except some strange man versus nature conflict - in that he was growing older by growing …
