Thunder on the Hill movie
Thunder on the Hill is a movie I love because it stars two actresses whose talents I’ve enjoyed for decades, Claudette Colbert and Ann Blyth. It’s a very dramatic film, even intense in places. As a young girl, it actually startled me a couple of times.
Blyth plays …
It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown movie

Coco (2017 Pixar Animated Film)
Unlike recent years, animated movies really dove down in quality. The Emoji Movie is considered as one of the worst movies ever made; The Lego Ninjago’s critical acclaim failed to match its predecessors’ wit; and then we have Despicable Me 3 and The Boss Baby. We did have The Lego …
Remember Me (2010)
I will start by saying the film “Remember Me”, starring Robert Pattinson, Pierce Brosnan, Chris Cooper, and Emilie de Ravin, is surprisingly good. On the surface, it contains a cliche plot, one of a boy who dates a girl to get back at someone else but ultimately falls …
Simpsons Movie
When the Simpsons started on television, I thought it was the best show ever. But, over the past few years, the episodes seemed forced and less and less original.
So, when the Simpsons Movie came out, I had my doubts. I’m glad to say I was wrong.
I skipped seeing this …

Shutter (UR, 2008)

Hanging up movie
Hanging up is a very normal movie which has nothing unique about it. The only saving grace of the movie is Meg Ryan’s impeccable performance. She single handedly did everything and the whole movie rests on her shoulders and she did a great job in doing that job perfectly. …
Grown Ups (movie)
When I saw the trailer for “Grown Ups” somewhere, I was neither here nor there when it came to excitement. A part of me thought that there was a strong possibility it might turn out to be another star studded failure, and another part of me wasn’t interested in …

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 …

Tangled animated movie (2010)
Another foray into Disney’s celebrated fairy tale genre, “Tangled” is a retelling of the classic story of Rapunzel.

Rush (biographical sports drama movie)
While I did see the trailer for the movie Rush a few times, it just didn’t even appear on my radar, since I’ve stopped paying attention to sports drama films since the nineteen nineties. There’s also the fact that I wasn’t quite sure what to make of the actor Chris …

The Wedding Singer, starring Drew Barrymoore and Adam Sandler, is one of my favorite movies because it makes you believe in love.

Farce of the Penguins starring Samuel L. Jackson and Bob Saget was just that, “Farce.”
