America’s Sweethearts 2001 Movie
America’s Sweethearts is one of those movies that has a star-studded cast, with promises of comedy and entertainment. It didn’t even deliver part of that promise. The movie was released in 2001. The film immediately gave me the feeling that I was watching a soap-opera made into a movie. …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I am a huge fan of Harry Potter, both the movies and the books. I was disappointed when the film showing was moved to this year but was still excited for the 6th installment of the novel by JK Rowling.
Half Blood Prince revolves around the emergence in power of …
Thew Ringer movie
The Ringer is a drama comedy movie starring by Johny Knoxville and Katherine Heigl. First time I saw the movie is just uncoincidence and I don’t know exactly what movie it is. After I watch a little longer I can see that this is pretty interesting to watch.
The movie …
The Kingdom (Movie)
This movie stars, jamie foxx and jennifer garner. Its a good story, but very boring. Theres a little TOO much detail in the story for my liking. Im usually a person that likes alot of detail but this was just entirely too much. Some parts just dragged on and …
Rent (the movie)
I loved this musical. It was modern, fun, dramatic, realist, sad, and humerous all at once. I cried at certain parts but even the sad parts were incredible. The actors did an amazing job in recreating the play that usually shows on Broadway. Their voice …
License to Drive (1988)
Corey Haim and Corey Feldman stir up trouble in this movie about teenage hormones and mischief. Lead character Corey Haim is to take his driving exam of which he fails, not wanting his family and friends and most of all his love interest to find out that he failed …
The Matrix Reloaded movie
The Matrix Reloaded is the 2003 sequel to the highly successful 1999 film The Matrix. The move was hard to follow to say the least, I thought the first was was confusing, this was impossible, the movie seems pieced together, I remember seeing a ton of interesting stuff, I …
The Crow movie
The Dark Gothic film that claimed the life of Brandon Lee. One of my favorite movies of all time, as not everyday you see a corpse rising from the grave to right to wrongs done to him. Not a zombie type role either…but undead and kicking butt from corner …
Friended to Death, movie (2014)
Watching a dreary film like Friended to Death has been a total waste of my time and energy. Directed by Sarah Smick and starring Ryan Hansen, James Immekus, Zach McGowan and others, this film has failed to keep me glued to it. Perhaps the director had aimed at shooting …
Movie The Werewolf’s Shadow (1970)
The Werewolf’s Shadow (1970) (aka Night of Walpurgis and Werewolf vs The Vampire Woman)
Three cheers to Anchor Bay for releasing the most complete version of this Paul Naschy werewolf classic! It is a huge step up over the rotten, heavily edited VHS version BLOOD MOON that was released twenty …
Breakfast at Tiffany’s movie
Breakfast at Tiffany’s is another classic that I keep watching repeatedly. In fact, just recently I bought the collector’s edition. This film is just amazing, and not only because actress Audrey Hepburn lights up the screen with her presence and fashion style. I think the film …

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004 Film)
After watching this 2004 comedy, “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy”, starring Will Ferrell, Steve Carrel, Christina Applegate and more dynamite caste members I will forever remember the name Ron Burgundy. There’s something about the sexist lines, the mix of actors, and the infatuation of nearly everyone on the …
The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day (2010)
—žBoondock Saints II: All Saints Day” is the long awaited sequel to the highly popular movie —žThe Boondock Saints”. The main cast remained unchanged, which is usually the good sign. Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flanery return as brothers MacManus, also known as the Saints of Boston. The movie …
Clifford the Big Red Dog Doggie Detectives
I went to our local Movie Gallery last night in search of a movie for my 4-year-old daughter. She has been watching a lot of Scooby Doo movies lately and, because she’s a bit too young to be watching without getting scared, has been having nightmares. So, I wanted …

Stuck in the Suburbs
When the movie Stuck in the Suburbs came on television last night, my first thought was “Great, another teenaged chick flick.” But, after watching it simply because there was nothing better on, I discovered it was actually a pretty good movie.
The Disney Channel Original centers around two girls …
“Full Metal Jacket” (1987 film)
Obviously, a review of ANY Stanley Kubrick movie is going to have the usual raves (visually stunning, technically masterful!) and the usual criticisms (the acting can feel a little…robotic at times, and there’s generally a certain bleak, emotionally distant view of the human condition). Those definitely apply to Kubrick’s …
Meet John Doe movie
Meet John Doe is one of the classics from the golden age of movie making. It has an impressive cast headlined by Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck. It is the superb acting that truly contributes to making this a standard in the sense of being one of …
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
This movie is simply hilarious. Steve Martin and Michael Caine shine as two con artists who at first team up and then start competing with each other. Each time I watch it, I laugh all anew, even though I know what’s coming, and I can tell that both actors …
Babel (R, 2006) movie
It took me a while to actually rent this movie. I knew that anything starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett would be really interesting. This movie did not disappoint. Following a couple who’s vacationing in and through Morocco, the audience gets to witness the aftermath occurring …
Shallow Hal

Phone Booth (starring Colin Farrell)
Have you ever heard the saying one phone call is all it takes to make a difference? Well, I watched Phone Booth before and this pretty much sums up what I just said. Watching this movie before, after the show had ended, I thought that it is pretty …

Daniel Deronda (BBC, 2002), based on a novel by George Eliot, is a treat for period drama fans, especially those with the idealistic side who love a Noble Hero. Daniel (Hugh Dancy) is a handsome young gentleman raised and educated by Sir Hugo Mallinger, a wealthy aristocrat. The society …
Message in a Bottle
Message in a Bottle is a story that every one will love because i do. It’s really strange how things happen specially when it comes to love. I really like the story because it was different from the other. A guy who throws a bottle with a love notes …

Half Caste (movie)
This is without doubt one of the dullest and boring movies I have ever seen. Watching this film unfold on your TV will put you to sleep. Worst, it’s supposed to be a horror movie! Horror movies as you very well know should be filled with suspense, scary moments …
21 movie
It took me a couple of times to finally watch this movie the whole way through. Overall it was kind of boring but a decent movie. You need to watch the movie the whole way through because the ending is what made the movie a little better in my …

Movie: Legend of the Dead
We had a bit of a late dinner last night and, since we knew we weren’t going to have time to go for a walk after eating, we ended up finding a movie to watch instead. The movie we ended up watching was one from the SyFy channel; Legend …
Disturbia movie
I liked Disturbia because I’m very into thriller movies and love movies that would scare me to bits. It’s about a boy who hasn’t really gotten over his father’s death who gets into trouble most of the time. He is placed under house arrest and is stuck at home; …
Solstice (PG-13, 2007)
I really tried hard to at least give this film a chance. I liked that it was set in Louisiana. I liked that the directors chose to focus on the solstice aspect. I even resigned myself to the fact that there would be several college kids …
Movie The Weatherman
We watched a movie the other night with Nicholas Gage in it. Although I like Nicholas Cage as an actor this was not one of his better movies.
I did not like the defeative attitude of the chaacchter that he played. He was a weatherman who …
4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days (2007)
I didn’t know abortion was not allowed in communist Romania and prosecuted strongly by law. But I knew about the cooperative living in student housing, the muddy streets, the black market of foreign goods, the segregation of “educated” and “ordinary” folks, the fear to be a woman and walk …
Juno
I had a friend recently recommend the movie Juno to me. From the trailers, the movie didn’t really stand out to me, and I probably wouldn’t have realized it existed if not for this friend. That is all beside the point, however, because I’m very glad I …
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
With the release of the Transformers on the year 2007, many fans anticipated the sequel of the famed Transformers. I was one of them. The first movie captured my interest (although I’m already a fan of the old school Transformers cartoons) because of the plot, action scenes, and most specially …
Marie and Bruce
Marie and Bruce is the most boring movie I have seen these days and I literally got a head ache after watching this movie. The film has nothing in it. The most important thing for a film is the story which is not there atleast a bit in this …
Grave of the Fireflies
This “anime” film from Japan by Isao Takahata deals with a lot more realistic theme than those found in the most famous anime creator Miyazaki. Grave of the Fireflies tells the heartbreaking story of some children who survived the nuclear attack on Hiroshima in the 1940s. It is very …
Anne of Green Gables (movie)
One of my favorite movies (second behind its sequel) is Anne of Green Gables. It was produced in 1985, and Megan Follows starred as Anne. Colleen Dewhurst played as Marilla Cuthbert, and Richard Farnsworth played Matthew Cuthbert. It was based on a book by Lucy Montgomery.
I …
Watchmen
Watchmen, a very popular comic series by DC Comics has finally made its way to the movies. Shown in different countries worldwide, the movie became very sensational.
Characters:
Bringing to life the characters from the comic strip to the movies was quite good. Though I really do not like the skin …
The Purge, 2013 Movie
For one night a year, all crime is legal. It’s a very compelling idea for a movie, right? If the film is well executed then yes, but in the case of The Purge, it’s really nothing more than an average movie.
The Purge was one of the first movies in …
The Private War of Major Benson
Early in Charlton Heston’s career, he starred in The Private War of Major Benson. Benson had some attitude problems and to get him in line, he was assigned to take over the running of a boys’ school. It was the low of the low for the major. …
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
We ended up picking up the second Madagascar movie “Escape 2 Africa” last night and wasn’t really sure what to expect. The first one was OK but not the best movie ever and we all know sequels usually don’t live up to the original.
As it turns out, the second …
Eden Lake movie
I just recently watch this thriller movie on a DVD player which is a British horror thriller written and directed by James Watkins. My comment about this movie is that I am not satisfied with the ending. The message is very clear in the movie though and it …
The movie Why Did I Get Married
I like Tyler Perry’s plays and his movies. This one was no different. THis movie is about what can happen to a relationship when it is not built on the right things. IT shows what can happen when couples start to take each other for granite and start to …
Athur And The Invisibles movie

The Expendables movie
“The Expendables” (2010, rated ‘R’) starring Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Jet Li is a terrific action movie perfect for those of us old enough to remember when the original “Rambo,” “Die Hard” and “Terminator” films were in theatres! “The Expendables” is like ‘old home week’ with lots of …
Movie - “House”
Sure, the plot seems a bit “cookie-cutter” at first; but don’t let that fool you. “House” is a deeply disturbing film that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
Two young couples are stranded in rural Alabama. They find shelter at a nearby bed and breakfast; but what …
