Vantage Point
Vantage Point is a movie that I had watched a few weeks back which I think had no plot whatsoever. Indeed if you see the title, it is sort of misleading and you would think that it is a boring movie. But it turned out to be a …
The Theory of Everything, Movie
I decided that I wanted to watch this film as soon as I saw the trailer. It seemed to me like it would have a realistic story line, and that the film would hold my attention. I would say the film definitely lived up to my positive expectations.
The film revolves …
Movie A walk to remember
I must admit that I truly enjoy watching great romance movies. The once I truly like I watch them endless times. “A walk to remember” is a great movie based on a true story.

Get Shorty
WHen I saw the movie “Be Cool” come out in 2005, I had a hard time understanding it even though it was only bits and pieces at different times that I watched. Thus, when I heard that it was actually a sequel to the movie “Get Shorty” which I …

The Carson City Kid movie
Roy Rogers stars in this 1940 western called The Carson City Kid. I have to admit that watching this movie was a relaxing experience. I just sort of kicked back and enjoyed a simple picture that was the classic good versus evil battle.
Rogers played a man masquerading …
Eat Pray Love: The Movie
For those of you going through a midlife crisis (like me), you can easily identify with Eat Pray Love. It stars Julia Roberts, who after going through some difficult times, travels to Italy to eat, to India to pray, and finally to Bali to fall in love. It is …

Into The Woods (Movie)
I was waiting for this movie for so long not only because Disney produced it but also because my favorite actors are there: Johnny Depp, Meryl Streep, Chris Pine, and Anna Kendrick.
At first I was so happy to know that it is a musical movie but I was a …
The Shadow
The Shadow is a very good super hero movie. I never knew what The Shadow was. But when I finally saw this movie I must say that I loved it a lot. This movie is very good and I really do think that Alec Baldwin did a great job of …

Fat Slags is a comedy movie based on a comic book series about two obese women in jumpsuits who regulary smoke and engage in sexual acts with various men.I havent read the comic book but decided to see how good the movie based off of it was.The movie starts …
The Bourne Supremacy
There’s rarely a sequel to a Hollywood blockbuster that lives up the original in any way. I have to agree with this when it comes to the second installment of the Jason Bourne series, The Bourne Supremacy. Though it’s still good, I can’t say that it holds a candle …
Kaw
I used to love original movies on the television station “SyFy” but I have to say most of them are starting to look like rip-offs from better known movies.
Take the one I watched yesterday for example; “Kaw.” This movie has a small town being infested with Ravens that are …

Like most movies I have an interest in seeing, this one disappeared from the cinemas before I had a chance to see it. I enjoyed it even though it contained many of the things I mentioned in my review of “Little Miss Sunshine” as things that could be …

Based on one of my favourite novels ever, Mrs. Dalloway, by Virginia Woolf, this movie explores the inner world of three different women, living in three different times. They’re all connected to eachother somehow, the first being none other than the writer, Virginia Woolf (played by Nicole Kidman), who …

Quinceaneara (R, 2005) movie
Quinceanera is a really complex film that has several different layers. Those who have no idea what a Quinceanera is, should understand that it is very much like a Sweet Sixteen or a Bar Mitzvah in U.S. culture. The Quinceaneara is really just the foundation for the …

Motherhood Motion Picture
I have enjoyed many of Uma Thurman’s movies over the years but this was sadly not one of her better ones. I had read negative reviews about this movie before I watched it and they were right. The acting and directing in this script were great. …
All The Boys Love Mandy Lane Movie
This movie is quite interesting since I’ve seen it several times shown on tv but haven’t really watched it. I’ve recently just watched the movie Never Back Down and it features the same girl here which is Amber Heard. She’s really pretty and wholesome and when I saw her …
Robin Hood movie
If a movie were intended to totally turn someone off of the old time legend of Robin Hood, Maid Marion, and the Merry Men, this 2010 version of Robin Hood would do it. The opening was depressing and vulgar, and it was anything from the bright and usually …
Last Vegas (2013 Film)
Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …

Grave of the Fireflies (movie)
After watching movies such as Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle, I was searching the internet for some good Japanese animated films to watch. The name of one movie in particular named “Grave of the Fireflies” kept surfacing with many extremely good ratings. However, I found myself ignoring it …

I took my toddler and my teenage daughter to see Disney’s The Princess and the Frog. We all enjoyed this movie, and my three year old actually set and wathced the whole thing. That is a true testament of a movie that is colorful and exciting to watch. The …
In The Cut (2003) Movie
I am afraid that I could not help comparing this movie all the way through to Nine and a Half Weeks, the 1987 erotic movie starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger. Now that is an erotic movie and I (and my friends at the time too!) can totally …
The Men Who Stare at Goats, war comedy film
What the hell is up with George Clooney? The man is showing up in all of these goddamn films and half of them—¦wait no, most of them suck! The one movie that really got me pissed off at the movie theaters was The Men Who Stare at Goats. This …

At Point Blank movie
A swedish “action” film about a team of bank robbers and how their actions finally lead to death. I am thrilled to see this kind of garbage from the swedish film industry today. This is probably the worst piece of junk I’ve ever experienced in swedish cinema. The whole …
Dogtooth (2009 film)
“Dogtooth” is a masterpiece of the weird. This Greek art house film, a winner at the Cannes Film Festival in 2009, simply kept me glued to the screen for about one hour and a half and left me with a million questions.
I found the atmosphere of the film …
Elizabethtown the movie
Orlando Bloom may be a great character actor and eye candy for women every where but, as a leading actor, he leaves a lot to be desired.
The movie Elizabethtown had great intentions and could have been a great love story. But, in my opinion, it fell flat. Kirsten Dunst …
Night at the museum
I went and saw this in the pictures. I have to say I was quite pleased. Everyone was going on about it and I thought it’s going to be really boring and stupid but I was wrong. I will admit it was not as funny as it could have …
Inkheart movie
The moment I heard what “Inkheart” was about, I knew I had to see that movie. For someone who loves books, the concept of book characters coming out from the pages into our world is fascinating.
“Inkheart” is based on a novel by Conrelia Funke. Those who have read the …
Bedtime Stories
I have been a fan of Walt Disney. It fascinates me to imagine and dream about fantasy. I grabbed a copy of Bedtime Stories and i eagerly played it on my dvd.
By anticipation we thought, and as the title suggests that its the typical story telling time …
Ice Age -Movie One in the Trilogy
I watched this movie a long time ago and then again recently; I recall then thinking that it was childish -which I suppose is good because it’s mostly a kid’s movie but I had hoped it would entertain me too- and that I would not care so much …
Ocean’s Thirteen
Ocean’s Thirteen is by far my favorite of the Ocean’s movies. It is the third movie in the series and personally I think it is the best. It has an all-star cast and a great plot. I liked this one best because finally the stars had …
Movie 1408
I really enjoyed watching this movie. I wouldn’t really say it was scary, I would say it was more freaky. I really liked it though. It kept me interested and entertained the whole movie. I wasn’t bored at any part. The actors did a good job and it was …
Hook (movie)
Hook was a movie full of great moments and acting. I really thought that Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman did a great job of acting in this film. Dustin Hoffman played the infamous Captain Hook. He really looked and sounded like Hook. He was very funny and did a really …
