The Medallion (2003)

Beastly (2011 Film)
The 2011 film “Beastly” starring Vanessa Hudgens, Alex Pettyfer and Mary-Kate Olsen, was in a few words—¦a magically romantic success. This film is based on Alex Finn’s 2007 novel that is basically a modern day version of “Beauty and the Beast”. Not only did this film capture the morals …

When Harry Met Sally
Billy Crystal sizzles in the movie, When Harry Met Sally. And one of my most favorite actress, Meg Ryan acted too and together with Billy Crystal, the on-screen chemistry looks unavoidable. I could be watching this 10 times and still not get tired nor bored at it.
This is …

Foamy the Squirrel
The premise of the Foamy cartoons may sound bizarre. A ranting cartoon squirrel that lives with a feminist goth chick? I must be kidding, I can’t possibly find this entertaining. But I do, the Foamy cartoons are the funniest cartoons on the internet, in my opinion anyway.
Sure, some cartoons …

Shame (movie)
Ever since I’ve discovered his movies, the actor Michael Fassebender has become not one of my favourite, but one of the actors who I’ve found to be most interesting. I believe that this especially stemmed from when I saw him in X-Men Origns as a young Magneto. I was …

Who Shot Patakango? movie
From 1989, Who Shot Patakango? is a sort of odd coming of age movie about teenagers attending high school in Brooklyn, New York. The star of note was Sandra Bullock as Devlin Moran. Following are some thoughts on this production.

Halloween (2007)
When I think of all the classic horror movies that came out in the late 70s and throughout the 80s and early 90s, the one that always stands out for me is Halloween. For me, Michael Myers is the creepiest killer ever; even worse than Jason or Freddie Krueger.
So, …

The 1961 movie, The Parent Trap, is one of my very favorite motion pictures. I own the DVD and watch it frequently. It’s family, and it’s fun.
