Ghosts of Cite de Soleil (R, 2006) movie
A friend brought over a copy of this movie. I immediately thought of the City of God, although that film takes place in Brazil. Anyway, this film features two young Haitian men who have been called to serve in an army called “Chimeres”. These are basically …
The Grudge 2
The Grudge 2 is a sequel to The Grudge or as I say a very lame sequel to the Grudge. They overplayed the grudge lady to much and went into her passed. And instead of being a poor woman that was murdered by her husband it turned out that …
The Fugitive thriller
The Fugitive is one of the best thrillers films I’ve seen. Never have I sat through the whole film without taking bathroom breaks or even a quick trip to the fridge. Here, Harrison Ford played Dr. Richard Kimble, a prominent doctor convicted of murdering his wife. He is co-starred …
Resident Evil Part 1
I have a week off from my office so I decided to watch DVDs. Among the video that I watched is this Resident Evil.
This movie is the first part of the trilogy. Definitely a good one and good start. The starts include Milla Jovovich and Michelle Rodriguez.
This movie is …
Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen
What can I say - the title of this review says it all! I watched “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” at Greenbelt Cinema 3 with my best friend and her son last weekend and it was, in a word, awesome! The movie really lived up to all the hype.
If …
Unstable movie
This movie premiered on Lifetime Movie Network last Sunday. It premiered after there little event went off called “the perfect sunday”. I enjoyed watching most of the movies that day but this one had to be my favorite that day. The actors, especially the main two actors were really …
Scary Movie 4
Scary Movie is one of those movie series where its really hard not to laugh. The only problem with these series is that each sequel ends up repeating jokes, and slowly loses the audience. The big thing with scary movie 4 is that this is not true. The begging …
Forrest Gump
One of m all time favorite actors is Ton Hanks. He is just a great actor, and every movie that he is in you just want to see.
We saw the movie FOrest Gump and Tom Hanks portrayal of this challegned indivual is outstanding.
At the opening …
Click movie
“Click” was starred by Adam Sandler and Kate Beckinsale. The former also starred in “50 1st Dates” and “Spanglish”.
Personally, this was a classic. I have known that Adam Sandler always plays in roles that offers humour as well as that touching concept. THis too was found in “Click”.
The story …
The Thief and the Cobbler film
The thief and the cobbler is a 1993 animated fantasy film set in an Arabian like land..Even though it was released in 1993,the film was in production for about 30 years because of the difficulty of the director to fund the movie.In the beginning of the film,the three golden …
Disney’s The Fox and the Hound (1981)
Just to prove that I really am over 50, I own Disney’s “The Fox and the Hound” on a VHS tape! I play it at least once a week because it’s so cute, but not more often than that because I don’t want to wear out the tape.
The …
Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3: Dream Warriors
One of my favorite films in the Nightmare On Elm Street series is the third installment Dream Warriors. With a talented cast which includes Patricia Arquette, Lawerence Fishbure and Jennifer Rubin and a dynamite premise which acted as if part two never happened, Dream Warriors is one of …
Rocky Balboa
As You all know there is a few films about Rocky (Silvester Stalone), but I think this is a last one. All of those films about Rocky are some kind the same. but every time I watch one of them it always touch my heart so is this film.
Years …
Kill Theory movie
A friend of mine had the DVD for Kill Theory, and I decided to kill time while I was at their house and watch it, even though even the title seemed very corny to me, and I’m usually very wary of a lot of horror movies that seem to …
Who Will Love My Children? movie
I clearly remember when Who Will Love My Children? was shown on TV in 1983. There was lot of buzz about it. This is a movie based on a true story, a remarkably touching and emotional true story about a woman named Lucile Fray. She and …
Rabbit Hole movie
Rabbit Hole is the best drama that I’ve seen this year. The film has to offer that quality of that the drama watchers want and they will love it. A very sensitive issue is exposed in a way that makes your bones shake, and the professionalism of the …
The Ides of March Movie
After watching the Ides of March I have found it to be entertaining, gripping, smart movie. The cast of the movies is the top of the line, you couldn’t wish for better actors to work on it. The strongest feature of the movie is in the unique characters in …
Vampire in Brooklyn,1995 movie
I guess the problem with this movie is that it cannot decide what it is: a horror or comedy. It is not scary enough to for the former and not funny enough for the latter. Eddie Murphy is playing the main character (and Eddie is not exactly vampire material, …
Moulin Rouge (2001 Movie)
Moulin Rouge by director Baz Luhrman is a movie built around its soundtrack…or at least, that’s how it feels to me. Each scene seems designed so that it can be summed up with a song. Fortunately the soundtrack is actually pretty good - many of the songs are great, …
Cromartie High School, Anime series
Cromartie High School is no ordinary school. It’s a school for delinquents. The most important subject is “fighting” and their biggest concern is “who the biggest badass is?” Everything they talk about is completely random and has nothing to do with school. You could say this anime is pointless, …
Captivity Movie
Captivity is an odd movie that I picked up in the video store because of the After Dark advertising on the front of the box. I assumed that the movie was part of the Horror Fest series, but it was actually an independent movie released by the same company. …
Paul Blart: Mall Cop movie
Paul Blart: Mall Cop was a very funny movie, which featured Kevin James. This Movie was about a mild-mannered security guard who has to be the hero when the mall is held up by a gang organization.
I really thought that the movie was boring and I didn’t want to …
The Holiday movie
The Holiday is a movie about two women who switch houses for a holiday. Both are rather depressed and without partners, and in need of a big change in their lives. Cameron Diaz plays the frustrated Amanda, and Kate Winslet plays Iris. Iris seems overall more stable and centered …
Message in a Bottle
Message in a Bottle is a story that every one will love because i do. It’s really strange how things happen specially when it comes to love. I really like the story because it was different from the other. A guy who throws a bottle with a love notes …
American Gangster The Movie
American Gangster is a movie that I went to this last weekend and I spent $22 for me and my girlfriend to see this over hyped movie and I was very dissapointed in it. The movie stars Denzel and so I thought it would be good but I found …
I, Robot
This movie is about the future, where there are robots. Will Smith is the main character in the movie. I think he does an amazing job in the movie and wouldn’t have been that good if he wasn’t in it. I really enjoyed watching the movie and it kept …
My Faraway Bride
I’m not usually interested in seeing romance movies or even reading romance books since I generally find them boring and unrealistic. However, when I saw the movie “My Faraway Bride” advertise, just the plot of it alone made me interested in watching it. I’m not even sure if the …

Silence of the Lambs is the story of a FBI trainee named Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) who is sent by her boss to interview a serial killer known for his …
Babylon A.D.
I just watch the movie and I must say I was very very disappointed with the film. It lacked everything from the action to the story. Will tell you how bad this movie was, so that you do not waste your time and money.
The movie begins with Thoorop a …
October Sky
Have you ever looked up at night and watched the stars and dreamed of doing something more with your life than the normal person? October Sky is a movie about a boy named Homer Heckman who is inspired to build a rocket after watching the Russian satelite Sputnik streak …
Rogue movie
I am a fan of monster stories that involve big fish or crocodiles. I was a teenager when Jaws first hit our movie screens and I still think that this kind of movie can be one of the scariest and dare I say it - entertaining of all the …
The New World Movie
Last night I was able to walk down to the local movie theatre and view “The New World.” This was a film I was pretty excited about to see because it was rarely released to local theatres, plus Christian Bale was in it.
Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …
Welcome to Mooseport (2004)
When the mayor of Mooseport dies, the seat left vacant must be filled, so the town council approached a neighbor of theirs who also happens to be a former United States President, who after his term ended, took up residence in that little town to escape his wife. In …
Master of Disguise movie
I had an opportunity to watch the film Master of Disguise the other night. I know I have seen it before but I couldn’t remember much about it. After watching it again, I can understand why.
Dana Carvey is somewhat funny as a waiter who finds out he comes from …
Mr. Deeds
Mr. Deeds is a great comedy movie. I think the acting and characters were just great in this film! I think this is probably Adam Sanlder’s best work since The WaterBoy. Now I really liked the whole storyline about how he inherits tons of money and gets rich. Mr. Deeds …
Beverly Hills Chihuahua
Beverly Hills Chihuahua is about a spoilt little Chihuahua named Chloe, who gets pampered a lot by her owner. When Chloe gets lost in Mexico, she has to learn to live without all her fancy clothes, shoes and perfumes. Not to mention her spa treatments and salon appointments every …
Meet the Parents, movie
Ben Stiller brings this familiar romp to life along with a strong supporting caste including Robert De Niro. I Thought this film captured some of the better elements that occur when meeting a fiancée’s in-laws for the first time, and it brought something different to a genre where I …
Disturbia, D.J. Caruso Movie
Opened with a car crash scenes that enrapture, ‘Disturbia’ and then talked about Kale (Shia LaBeouf, Transformer), a teenager who prisoner forced to accept the house, because striking Spanish language teachers. Kale feet are similar bracelets that will limit the scope move. If he bounds through a certain distance, …
Film “Groundhog Day”
The movie Groundhog Day is one of my favorite movies of all time because it has a lot to offer. It is a comedy but it does not relay on silly gags or stunts you have seen in other movies. It does have a handful of gags such …
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011 film)
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol is the 4th installment of the famous spy action series with Tom Cruise starring as Ethan Hunt.
The beginning of the story finds the IMF top agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) in a prison in Moscow and a couple of other IMF agents are in …
The Great Gatsby (movie)
One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …
The Greatest Show on Earth movie
One of my favorite movies has always been The Greatest Show on Earth, starring Charlton Heston. In fact, I believe this is Heston’s first big starring role. He plays Brad, the owner of the circus that travels the country. He has to deal with everything that …
Farewell to Harry movie
From 2002, Farewell to Harry is a small story, told quietly. It has some very slow moments, but that’s the grace of the film. It also has that mystery to it, to figure out what is truth from what is whimsy. I found that as I …
Siegfried & Roy: The Magic Box
My boyfriend loves watching IMAX movies so much, I couldn’t understand why. And so, I have watched Siegfried & Roy: The Magic Box with him before.
I admit that watching 3D movies are fun, and I have lots of nice and funny experiences while watching. The joy does …
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 Hunt (2012)
As a fan of cinema entertainment I indulged in watching the movie called The hunt. I choose to watch this movie because of the actor Mads Mikkelsen was the lead Role. Besides that factor, I was drawn to the plot of the film. I must warn that my …
Hot Pursuit (comedy movie)
Although I’d heard beforehand that the movie wasn’t very good, I was still determined to watch Hot Pursuit . At the time I’d wanted something fairly lightweight that I could enjoy without thinking too much. It turns out that while it was the type of movie I was looking for, …
Braveheart
For me, this movie was hard to watch. Brutal battles, blood, gore, and a horrible scene of torture in the end that I couldn’t handle; I just left and returned when it was nearly over. Mel Gibson plays William Wallace, a 13 century Scottish freedom fighter. After the English …
Predators Movie
I have seen this movie last night and even though I didn’t want to watch it because I’m not fond of alien-predator fighting scenes and the only alien-predator movie that I liked is Alien versus Predators, and not humans versus aliens and predators, I had just watched this since …
The Firm, 1993
The movie is based on a bestselling novel by John Grisham and directed by Sydney Pollack. Mitch McDeere (Tom Cruise) is a brilliant young lawyer, much sought after as he is one of the top law school graduates. A small, little known, but prosperous firm in Memphis lures him …
