I watched this movie over at my parents house a few months ago and quite honestly I was not overly impressed. The movie was both written and directed by Sean Penn and released in 1991 by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.
The title on this movie is very misleading …

SPOILER ALERT! Do not read this review if you haven’t viewed the film and plan on seeing it anytime soon.
Saw this film last week and I thought it was ok. It’s pretty much like all the other hostage taker - negotiator type films before it. Here, John …

While Transformers began with children in mind, Revenge of the fallen couldn’t have landed further without earning an “R” rating. While the robots are more numerous and larger in size, I must say I am a little disappointed with the lack of responsibility taken up by the team to …

What’s there not to love about Cars? …

I am a sucker for a good mystery. This movie fell into this category. I enjoyed watching it so much. It constantly kept me guessing and wondering what was going to happen next. I hate watching movies that are so boring and extremely predictable. Demi Moore did an excellent …

The Pacifier is a pretty funny movie. I thought it was funny seeing Vin Diesel star in a funny movie. We are so used to seeing him in action and violent movies. This was a nice anf funny change for Vin Diesel. I think that the film was OK, it …

I had never heard of the Aristocrats joke before this movie came out, which means I am probably like most people, since this seems to have been an in-joke among comedians that never really made it out into the popular culture prior to this film. I did find …

I remember first seeing the trailers for “Legally Blonde” when the movie came out in 2001; they promised some laughs, but overall, I wasn’t impressed and did not go to see the movie. Elle, the main character, seemed too “girly” for me: a fashion-freak blonde wearing pink & high …

So instead of reviewing “music” exclusively, I decided perhaps I could try reviewing movies too, since I’m basically a huge movie fan too! And perhaps, as I’m hoping, my film reviews will be as much as valuable for this site too. This review is spoiler-free.
I watched “Me and Earl …

Kevin Bacon stars in this movie with the interesting plot and weary execution. The film begins with a group of people sharing happy family moments. The audience gets to see how the boys grow up. And I suppose the montage seen through film and …

Honestly, I just find Nathaniel Parker cute that’s why I finished this movie and wishing I had been Marsha Thomason just to snatch that role. Yes, this is a funny movie but I was wondering why Walt Disney Pictures, or anyone else who has been part of making …

While this movie brought back the original characters as well as the same actors who played them, it was just lacking in the area of what I was looking for in a sequel to the first movie. It had all of the chemistry and potential for the greatness of …
