Kung Fu Panda (2008)
I brought Eeyan and Natasha, my 2 cute nephew and niece, respectively to watch Kung Fu Panda (2008). It was real super fun and we had a great time. The thing was that I was supposed to go with my date on that day, this 26 year …
Avatar movie
From the director of Titanic, I did not expect anything lesser than a truly spectacular and touching movie. And even with this high expectation Avatar did not let me down. Avatar is a movie which kept me fully engaged in the theater for every seconds of the movie. In …
A face to die for
You know, sometimes the best movies out there are those that are made for television. Proof of that can be found in the 1996 made-for-TV movie “A Face to Die For.”
This movie has Yasmine Bleeth starring as a disfigured woman who is conned by her boyfriend into committing a …
Red Cliff movie
The title of the movie does not give away much about the movie itself, although it will give you an idea that it is a place or location which will be significant in the movie.
Basically, this is a war movie set in ancient China wherein a very powerful Prime …
Click Movie review
I went to theatre to watch a comedy movie and ended up choosing The movie “CLICK.”Though this movie is a comedy ,the second half becomes like a drama. Adam Sandler’s acting seems to be funny.It looks more like a real life rather tthan a movie.He is able …
NetFlix
What a pain having to go all the way to the video store and walk around forever finding what you want. For a long time I didn’t even go out and rent movies because it was just too much of a hassle. Also I hated the restrictions of how …
Movie “Going the Distance” (2010)
I am not a big fan of romantic comedies. I do watch a handful per year but they are not my favorite genre. I picked this one up from netflix mostly because I had sen every thing else in new releases. I was pleasantly surprised at …

Resident Evil: Extinction
I have already watched the first two parts of Milla Jovovich’s movie, Resident Evil. All three are really good and has it’s own new story to tell. The three has different settings.
As I recall in part one, the main setting is The Hive, the secret underground laboratory of Umbrella …
My Week with Marilyn Monroe (movie)
I’ve been into quite a lot of action films especially lately so it’s easy to see how a movie like this would have escaped my attention at first. I’m not even going to call myself a gigantic Marilyn Monroe fan but the little I’ve heard of her and just …
The Fourth Kind Motion Picture
This is a very interesting movie. I thought it would be like other movies that are based on true stories where it is all acted out and would maybe have some interviews with real people involved with the story in the special features, but that is not …
Movie Casino Royale
Of all the James Bond films I’ve seen, Casino Royale is by far the worst.
First, Daniel Craig can’t fill even George Lazenby’s shoes when it comes to the role. He’s not handsome. He’s not charming and he’s not James Bond.
The movie itself was even more of a problem. …
Roadkill
I watched this movie story, Roadkill on TV twice when it was telecast some time last year on my local TV channel.
It starred my favorite actor Paul Walker and a great acting by him and also Steve Zahn and Leelee Sobieski. I watched alone the first time …
Seven Year Itch, movie (1955)
Despite over fifty years passing since her death, Marilyn Monroe remains one of cinema’s most renown blonde bombshells. Her sex symbol status was no mystery to me. She had the look that would stop traffic. With Seven Year Itch, she gave film one of its most …
Killing Them Softly, crime film
Killing them softly is a crime film that takes the genre completely to another level. The characters and cinematography is top notch however, I found the story to be a bit on the weaker side.
Talking about camera-work, this mob film sure is a breath of fresh air. The joint-smoking …
Shrek the Third
In my opinion, Shrek the Third is the best movie of the Shrek movies. I liked Shrek 1 and Shrek 2 even more than 1 because of the addition of Puss in Boots. Shrek 3 I like even more than Shrek 2; that isn’t saying a whole …
The Fighting Sullivans
A couple days ago I first saw the film ‘The Fighting Sullivans’, and I have to say that I REALLY enjoyed it. It was released in 1944, and was based on the true story of the Sullivan brothers, all of whom fought in World War II (don’t want to …
Night At The Museum 2 movie
Two weeks ago, my husband, together with my 7-year old daughter decided to watch a movie. There are four cinemas in the mall that we went to, and none of them were showing an animated film, so we decided to watch Night At The Museum 2 since it was …
Split (2017 Psychological Thriller Film)
The idea of watching a psychological film circling around different personalities inside a single person is potentially invigorating. After all the idea has never been done to death. That’s why I am earnestly hopeful that my first M. Night Shyamalan feature could fulfill the gap of films I missed in …
War Horse (movie)
When I heard about the movie “War Horse” a couple months ago, the plot sounded so interesting to me that I couldn’t wait to try it. I realise now that it was only because the person had given me a very brief and interesting synopsis of the movie’s plot. …

300: Rise of an Empire, movie
My Husband and I liked and own the first 300 movie (called The 300). For those who have never seen it, it tells the tale of the battle of 300 lone Spartan soldiers against a huge army and the powerful Xerxes. We watch the original 300 fairly frequently and …
Star Trek (2009)
With a venerable liking for most things I’ve seen almost all of the movies and some shows, I must say that JJ did a nice work with this film. The director JJ Abrams has done a brilliant job in resurrecting an ailing franchise to the glee of millions of …
Scarface movie
When Tony comes to Miami, Florida, things are never the same. Tony is a Cuban refugee who tries to start life over in a new country. Al Pacino is brilliant in this role as Tony, who starts out with nothing and becomes a huge drug lord. Tony wants to …

Superman Returns
At last, someone returns to the heart and soul of the original Superman of 1978, with minor improvements to special effects and setting. This movie could not have been made as is back in 1978. It is a Superman for this generation and I am pleased with its arrival. …
Fast Food Nation
Everyone already knows that fast food is bad for you. When it comes to movies, Supersize Me covered that quite thoroughly. But what if that hamburger wasn’t just packed with calories, but also possibly contained something far worse? That’s the premise, on the surface at least, of Fast Food …
Nacho LIbre movie

Sweet Bird of Youth movie

Final Destination 1 movie
This movie doesn’t really make much effort in building on the original, save for making the death sequences even more gruesome than its predecessor.
We open up on a new bunch of protagonists, this time lead by precognitive Kimberly who halts a stream of traffic after having a vision of …
A River Runs Through It (1992)

Leapfrog: A Tad of Christmas Cheer
I was letting our daughter watch some Christmas movies I came across on Netflix and one of them turned out to be better than expected; Leapfrog: A Tad of Christmas Cheer.
Basically, this movie focused on the Leapfrog frogs and the fact Tad had to cope with his family expecting …
Bio Dome
When I think back to the movies made in the 1990s, I can think of quite a few good ones. And, then I can think of ones made by Pauley Shore that weren’t so good but still somewhat entertaining.
Shore will never win any awards for his performance in the …
Speed Racer (2008)
This movie is a live action movie that has been created off the cartoon TV series that is still being aired on the Boomerang channel and a newly revised series on the Nicktoons Networks. The movie is just abominable if that’s the right word to use for it. Terrible …
Movie: “Europa Europa” (1990)
“Europa Europa” from Central Cinema Company is a 1990 movie in German, Russian, Polish, and Hebrew. It was filmed in color on locations in Poland and lasts 112 minutes. I turned on the English subtitles and was able to fool myself that I understood the German portions.
The movie “Europa …
Perfect Husband: The Laci Peterson Story (PG13, 2004)
I am a huge fan of true crime stories. Back in 2002, I followed this particular story fairly closely, and thought that something just wasn’t quite right about Scott Peterson and his lack of emotion. This movie, which I think featured on regular television, was …
Last Holiday 2006 movie
I’ve seen this movie a couple of times now; it’s decent. I don’t think it’s one of those movies that you think of and then you HAVE to see it, but it’s a pleasant movie to watch if it happens to be on.
Some of the acting is pretty good, …

Sex And The City- The Movie (2008)
After all the long anticipation into the final story of the super sucessful show Sex And The City and all the years of talk into making the movie- the final result was more than disappointing.
The show Sex and the City was a real hit. It showed the life of real …

The Eclipse
The opinions concerning Michelangelo Antonioni are very divided. Some think he’s the greatest master of cinema ever, while others think he’s too pretentious and never really learned how to make a film properly. Personally I am somewhere between those two. I think his earlier work such as The Cry, …

Land of the Lost
I’m not a huge Will Ferrell fan so I kind of figured I wouldn’t like his movie Land of the Lost.
Well, I watched it this past weekend and it turns out I was right.
This movie just wasn’t that good. Ferrell is supposed to be some sort of genius scientist …
