I recently watched the movie Red Riding Hood starring Amanda Seyfried as the popular children’s story main character. I was very curious to watch the movie as I wanted to see how they would depict a well-known children’s story into a full fledged movie. The plot was …

High School Musical
Can two different people from two different worlds apart get together? A lot of stories have already answered that question, but perhaps the most popular story among them is Disney’s “High School Musical”.
This made-for-TV movie follows the story of Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), a basketball jock, and Gabriella Montez …
The Longest Day movie
The Longest Day has always been an amazing recounting of D-Day, the sixth of June. It’s probably my favorite of all of the World War II movies that I’ve seen, and I’ve seen a ton over the decades. The stellar cast of The Longest Day goes a …
The Reaping (R, 2007) movie
This is not your ordinary horror film. Based on some pretty heavy Biblical references, if you are not into supernatural themes, you will get really bored with this one. That being said, Hilary Swank gives a believable performance in this thriller. This isn’t the type of …
The Last Airbender Movie
I am the biggest Avatar fan in the world. I absolutely love the series and I remember it being an integral part of my childhood. And I have to admit, I still rewatch the series every now and then even though it is kind of a childish show. The …
Max Payne
I can’t help to mention that Max Payne is just a stupid movie. I wish that it could have been better so that I could give a real positive review, but watching this from start to finish at the cinema was just a waste of time. I wasted …
The Irrefutable Truth About Demons movie
I am reviewing the New Zealand film, The Irrefutable Truth About Demons, starring Karl Urban and Katie Wolfe. This movie was made in 2000, and was written and produced by Glen Standring.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
I saw this movie a day ago because the title caught my eye when I was looking on the television guide for movies to watch. When I watched it though, I realised that the film was more than just a strange title, but it was a heartbreaking film which …
Face Off (1997)
I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …
A Wrinkle In Time Movie
I was fairly young when I first picked up the book “A Wrinkle in Time” — but to his day, very few novels (with the ultimate exception of the Harry Potter series) have managed to match it.
The book is one of high adventure and heavy imagination — and, as …

The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio (movie)
I think that one of the most interesting movies that I watched this year was one named “The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio”. I had actually seen the movie name on display on my cable guide a number of times before, but I never actually worked up the interest …

Pride and Prejudice
Having never been able to become very interested in the book for some reason or another, I somehow found myself enamored with the film version of Pride and Prejudice. The romance between Elizabeth Bennet (Keira Knightley) and Mr. Darcy (Matthew Macfayden) is legendary, of course, but this film and …
GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra
I don’t know why the critics are always so picky about summer blockbusters like GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra. They love to criticize these movies to death, and they don’t even realize that these movies are based on Hasbro toys! Wake up, critics, we don’t watch these kinds …

1941 movie
I remember watching the movie 1941 quite a few years ago and thinking it was a very funny film. That’s why, when I had the opportunity to load it on our Netflix player and watch it this weekend, I did.
I’m thinking my tastes in comedies has changed over the …

Hollywood Homicide (2003)
Ok my good people, I guess we asked for it and it was given to us as promised, this is where Hollywood meets police meets Hollywood get it? Me neither, but in essence, this movie is about two police detectives who are not getting enough payment from their regular …

The movie Prime staring Uma Thuman and Meryl Streep is a great, fun loving movie. Trying to show the perils of older women dating a younger man, and a mothers want for her son to be with someone with the same religion. I found some parts of the movie …
Father of the Bride
Father of the bride is one of the very good movies with the mix of all necessary emotions in right dosage. The movie with Steve Martin and Diane Ceaton in main roles is a very entertaining movie. It makes us laugh a lot and makes us feel the emotions …
Music and Lyrics
For people who grew up in the 80’s, much of the subtle humor in the recent movie, “Music and Lyrics” is not as subtle as it is obvious and in your face. From the incredibly cheesy music videos, to the fanatical gyrations of a has-been, this movie made me …
House of Wax
It’s settled; Vincent Price is my favorite actor of all time. There is no actor, past or present, quite like him. In this remake of 1933’s ‘Mystery of the Wax Museum,’ an enthused Price plays Professor Jarrod, a brilliant artist whose wax sculptures seem like real people. …
Push movie
“Push” is a movie about people with powers. It’s set in a world where many people have powers that an secret agency has classified under terms like “pusher”, “reader,” “mover” and “eraser”. I was curious about this movie, even more so since it’s the first non-serious movie I’ve seen …

A Frozen Flower (a Korean Movie)
If you love movies of foreign languages, then you can try to watch this Korean movie titled, A Frozen Flower. I thought it’s a rather weird movie and at the same time, feels quite confused by it all. This movie is basically about royalty, about the “relationship” of …
Batman Begins 2005 Movie
After the terrible versions that came before it, I was frightened that Batman Begins would continue on that downward spiral of failure. I had hopes that it would not because of the amount of time that there was between the two failure films and this one, as well as …
The Cable Guy movie
The Cable Guy stars Matthew Broderick and Jim Carrey as a looney cable guy. This movie has some very funny moments and my boyfriend likes to quote it all the time. The first time I saw it I wasn’t expecting the twist at the end. I thought it was …
Bloodrayne
I love vampire movies so it should be a bit surprising I didn’t get around to watching the film Bloodrayne until tonight.
The movie was OK but not as good as I thought it would be.
The problem with movies based on video games is they tend to assume you actually …

Happy Feet movie
As a father with three children, ages 9 down to 3, I went into this film with some trepidation. Mind you, I like children’s fare, but this one just didn’t have the appeal for me.
Boy, was I wrong.
The tap-dancing penguin in the movie is just adorable. As much …
Movie: Life as We Know It

A Walk to Remember movie

Finally grown up, Gidget Gets Married. It had to happen sometime, and it was just time to let Gidget and Moondoggie get together for real. Monie Ellis inherited the Gidget role for this movie from 1972. She’s good, but of all the Gidgets in all of …
Jack Black
OK, I know I should like Jack Black. But, I just can�t seem to find any respect for him.
The problem I have is he�s one dimensional. He can�t do drama or action. It has to be comedy. Even when he tries to be serious, you can�t help but think …
Scream Movie (1996)
As I was looking through the TV channels one boring Sunday afternoon, I came across “Scream”. This movie was one of the best movies that came out in 1996. I remember that a lot of my friends back in High School were really too hyped up about this movie …
