Recently we saw that our local library had a Christmas movie that …

One thing I’ve always had a soft spot for is post appocalyptic films, and the 1964 version of the movie “Last Man on Earth” is just that. In fact, the first thing it reminded me of was the most recent version of the movie “I am Legend” starring the …

Im was a huge fan of Lock Stock and Two Smokin barrels and when Snatch was released I was unsure of what to expect.
Surely it couldn’t be as gritty and now with that expectation and Benecio Del Toro, Brad Pitt and Dennis Farina I thought it would be too …

I tend to like a lot of films, especially drama films which have a historical setting. These films do not necessarily have to be based on a factual story either, and they do not have to be set in the far history like medieval times. This is what attracted …

Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …

To put everything in a short sentence, “Blond Ambition” is a very cheap copy of Reese Whiterspoon success movie “Legally Blond”. It is to no surprise to me that it went straight to DVD release.
The interesting fact about both movies that is that Luke Wilson stars in both of …
