X Men the Last Stand
Ok I will X men a lot. And I think the first two movies were pretty good. But the 3rd one was just horrible. I mean they had way to many characters and there was way to much going on at the same time in the movie.I couldn’t really keep …
Amadeus movie
Amadeus is one of the most entertaining movies I have ever seen in my life. I love music and this movie has plenty of good music in it. I think that the character of Amadeus Mozart was just great in the movie. I also really liked the way Amadeus …
Arthur and the Minimoys
When I was in a movie house, I was able to see the trailer of Arthur and the Minimoys. I found it and interesting story so I bought a copy of the movie. I like the movie so much since it is an adventure film. Though its a fiction …
Manchester By The Sea (2016 Drama Film)
Just before the film ended when Lee Chandler (Casey Affleck) finally acknowledged the guilt that manifested inside him I hit the pause button. I went to the bathroom and let the faucet running - it was the first time I had an emotional breakdown while watching a film. I just …

House of Wax
House of Wax with Chad Michael Murray, Elisha Cuthbert, and Paris Hilton.

Most people dream of winning the lottery or going on a long vacation? Chris McCandless dreamed of living in the wild and made 100% sure that nothing and no one got in the way from making his dream come true.

Stargate SG-1 - The Enemy Within
The second episode of the TV series Stargate SG-1 was called “The Enemy Within”. It’s a transition episode really from the pilot movie to the series itself. It’s not a big favorite of mine, probably because it is still struggling with getting all its eggs in its …
Gidget Goes Hawaiian movie
Two years after Sandra Dee captured the world as the girl midget known as Gidget, the character was back in Gidget Goes Hawaiian. Now honestly, this one is probably my favorite. There’s something about the storyline that I really loved. I don’t know if technically it’s …
All About Steve film
I like the fact that Sandra Bullock in many of her films, usually plays a feisty but vulnerable sort of character, a real fighter, someone we can all relate to. “All About Steve” continues in this time honored tradition, rather like, “Miss Congeniality”. I was pleasantly surprised to find …

Tim Burton’s 9 movie 2009
Here is one film I am just not sure how to take. It left me scratching my head. With it being from Tim Burton, I was not surprised to see a bizarre futuristic realm of robots made from scraps like rag dolls. I just don’t understand Burton’s obsession with buttons, …
The Thrill of It All movie
This is another of my very top favorite Doris Day films, and it co-stars James Garner. These two make a great film pair, and I wish they’d done more than this movie and Move Over, Darling.
In this flick, Day stars as Beverly Boyer, happy housewife and mother. …

High Crimes movie
As a person who loves both courtroom dramas and military movies, High Crimes is the perfect film for me because it gives me a good combination of both.

The movie the 40 year old virgin
The 40 year old virgin is a movie that I can watch over and over and over again because it is a movie that I cant get sick of watching and it is just as funny the fifth time watching it as it is the first time watching it.
The …
Veggietales: Silly Thing Called Love
I picked up a Veggietales DVD for my daughter that I thought would keep her occupied for about 45 minutes. It turns out it was a pretty decent, full-length disk that kept her occupied for more than an hour.
Silly Thing Called Love is a great Veggietales disk that uses …
Some Kind of Wonderful movie
One of the most classic and beloved american high school movies of the 1980s, perhaps not as well known as Fast times at Ridgemont High for example, but Some kind of wonderful is definitely my own personal favorite. In the centre of the story stands a rebellious young man, …
Movie “Case 39″ (2009)
I do not particularly like or have anything against Rene Zellweger. This movie was ok. I liked the plot but some of it was cheesy and too campy for my taste and I like horror and campy movies. The plot is cool in this film. …
Janie Jones movie
I rarely like the movie called the name of a person. The films of this type is usually a boring drama. Similarly when I watched the film Janie Jones. I watched with low expectations. However, apparently this movie proves otherwise. This drama gives something fresh, with a simple acoustic …
Sin City
Sin City the movie is directed by Robert Rodriguez and is based on hot comic novels by Frank Miller. Rodriguez brings to life the work of Miller and is not like any movie I have ever seen. The cinematography is brilliant and artistic. Most of the movie is shot …
Horror Express movie
I was digging through our movie cabinet a couple days ago (trying to find my daughter’s missing Nintendo DS) when I came across the movie Horror Express.
To be perfectly honest with you, I don’t even remember picking up this movie. I think my wife bought it for me from …
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas Movie
This is a classic story that will send you sobbing and crying after you watch it. I felt so terrified and traumatic after watching this, it’s not really a good film to be watched by people who are paranoid or who are easily affected and easily worried and sensitive …
Two Hours of My Life I’ll Never Get Back
I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, as I believe that the true story of the murder of Elizabeth Short is quite interesting. This movie was SUCH an amazing let down!!!! The focus on this film failed to be the murder of Elizabeth Short, but rather a …
Talk to Me (R, 2007) movie
If ever there was a true story brought to film that needed to be seen, it’s this one. “Talk to Me” covers the true story of Petey Greene, a former convict who fast-talked his way into a coveted Washington DC radio station DJ job. Don Cheadle is …
Sleepers: Movie
I found Sleepers to be quite an interesting film, mainly due to the fact that I am a fan of a good revenge story.
I wasn’t entirely satisfied at the ending, but I feel that the emotion captured by the actors was so good that it softened the blow a …

“Fanboys” Motion Picture
I did enjoy this movie which shocked me. I am not a fan of comic books, nerds, star wars etc which is the main target audience for this film but I saw a preview for it and it looked funny. About 20 minutes in I almost turned …
The Longest Yard (2005): movie
I had not seen the original The Longest Yard, but heard it was a very popular movie. The main reason I went to see the remake which was made in 2005 is that I like Adam Sandler. Sometimes his movies are a little too silly, but I …

Hairspray (1988)
I have seen the most recent version of the movie Hairspray and I absolutely loved it. So, I decided to take the time to watch a slightly older version, the 1988 version that starred Ricki Lake in the lead role.
OK, the movie is essentially the same as the remake …
Perry Mason: The Case of the Heartbroken Bride movie
For me, the bride in Perry Mason: The Case of the Heartbroken Bride was too pouty and snooty, even though we know she’s innocent because Perry is defending her. I just didn’t like her look. In fact, the entire opening bit at the wedding of Perry’s old …
Mr. Woodcock
“Mr Woodcock” is a good comic movie; however I personally would have preferred that the main part went to a different actor rather than Billy Bob Thornton. In this movie, Thornton tried to interpret “Mr Woodcock” to his best of abilities, however while watching this film I couldn’t help …
Alligator (1980)
I have yet to see a ‘killer croc’ film that I could imagine myself watching again. Why are there so many b-movies that involve galled gators munching on mortified men and women? The market is saturated. I had forgotten that there is one flick worth watching …
Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003 Drama Movie)
I heard of the movie Girl with a Pearl Earring long before I watched it, but I just figured that it would be one of those overblown movies that would only be popular because it had a Hollywood sex symbol playing one of the main roles. However, after forcing myself …

The Polar Express
I didn’t get a chance to see the Polar Express at the theater and never got around to renting it on DVD. So, when it came on television Christmas night, I figured there was no better time to watch it.
I had mixed emotions about the movie. On one hand, …
Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier: A Movie
My kids were raised reading comic books, and since my husband likes them I have come to appreciate Marvel movies. My husband’s favotire character is Captain American and we have seen nearly every movie that has come out. The most recent movie that we watched (or rather rented) was …
Transporter 2
What little characterization from the first movie is tossed aside as Frank…whatever his last name was is now in Miami acting as chauffeur for a politician and his family. It’s clearly a temp job, but he does get along well enough with the kid, testing the boy’s intellect …
Nine to Five movie (1980)
I remember seeing “Nine to Five” for the first time when I was only twelve years old. I loved it then, and I love it just as much today. I still like to watch parts of it whenever it appears on TV. To all the ladies out there, this …

Sheba, Baby (PG, 1975) movie
If you like blaxploitation films you have probably seen this one already. This one, starring Pam Grier as Sheba is one of the classics—-but not necessarily because of its cinematic greatness. Pam plays a private detective who is helping her father fight mobsters. …
Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
