I was home sick yesterday and found myself watching Star Trek Nemesis for the first time in several years.

Dan in Real Life

Left Behind movie
Left Behind is a great set/series of movies. The Left Behind movies detail what it will be like once Jesus Christ returns to collect His chosen people. This movie details what happens to those left behind. I have read all of the Left Behind books but I have to …
Anger Management (movie)
Anger Management is a movie with Adam Sander and Jack Nicholson as Dave and Dr. Rydell, respectively. You might wonder how these two actors play off each other, and I felt they did very well in Anger Management. I like Adam Sandler but really adore Jack Nicholson. Adam Sandler …
The Hound of the Baskervilles movie
Jeremy Brett in the role as Sherlock Holmes and Edward Hardwicke as dr Watson. This is a tv produced film that preceded the very popular series, and Jeremy Brett is in my opinion the best actor to appear as the mastermind next to Basil Rathbone (of course).
The classic story …
Pigs vs Freaks movie
In 1984, the movie Pigs vs Freaks was aired. Oddly, it had been filmed in 1980, and in truth, it was loosely based on a game that had been written up in Time Magazine in 1970. In other words, this movie was a long time coming. …

Splice (2010) movie

Bingo (1991 movie)

Naruto Episode 14 Subbed
Despite some of the earlier episodes that had a lot of flashbacks, this episode managed to be quite interesting. The main character is back in the action, none too soon in my personal opinion, but of course this does not amount to any interesting action. In fact, Naruto’s entrance …

A Storm in Summer,2000 movie

21 Movie
We watched the movie 21 tonight. I think it’s cool that it was based on a true story. Can you imagine how smart those kids had to be? It just blows my mind!
I think the movie does a great job of showing just what greed can get you. And …
Aliens
Females kick butt in this 1985 follow-up to the eerie and moody Ridley Scott classic Alien. James Cameron was at the helm of this production and wisely tried to stay clear from making a carbon copy of Scott’s cult film, deciding to go for a full out action film …
Chinatown Kid (1977 movie)
When compiling a list of great martial arts movie stars several names are almost always expected to top that list, Bruce Lee is always present, as is Jackie Chan, and the same can likely be said for Jet Li. But, one name that is almost always painfully overlooked is …

Freedom Writers (movie)
Freedom Writers stars Hilary Swank as the teacher who goes into a system that is doomed and comes out on top. Hilary Swank is awesome as Erin, and she does not disappoint at all in this role. Another thing that I really like about Freedom Writers is that it …
Caveman
When I was a really young kid, I was infatuated with dinosaurs. I guess every kid probably was. I lived right outside of D.C. so I had no problems with visiting the museum regularly. I remember some cartoons like the Flintstones which celebrated the union between man and reptillian …

Inherit the Wind
At the heart of this film is a powerful controversy, one that still inspires heated debates today. On trial in this movie is not just a teacher’s right to teach certain subjects, but our right as American citizens to freedom of speech and freedom of choice.
Certain characters, mainly townsfolk, …
Gothika -movie
As a bonafide horror buff, I rented Gothika under the impression that anything containing supernatural horror, Penelope Cruz, and Halle Berry-would be nothing less than a thrill. Much to my chagrin, the movie is slightly less than thrilling. Entertaining, yes. Creepy in parts-yes. Thrilling-no. …
