Transformers
Although it is essentially a live-action film, Transformers blows Ratatouille out of the water when it comes to computer animation; the CG sequences in Michael Bay’s latest film are simply incredible, pushing computer graphics to the verge of realism. The film as a whole is a wild ride, with …
50 First Dates
50 First Dates stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.
This classic love story takes place in beautiful Oahu, Hawaii, and aside from this location, it was clearly a clone of the Wedding Singer that also starred these two actors. Aside from this fact, I loved the …
Tropic Thunder movie
Directed by Ben Stiller, Tropic Thunder is one of the smartest movies that I have seen in a long while. It toys with the audience just like any good movie does, and by the time you realize what the movie is all about, the plot shifts gears and becomes …

Reno 911! Miami (Movie)

I had heard of the movie The Adventures of Robin Hood but I had only seen bits and pieces of it until yesterday afternoon. It was raining out and I had nothing better to do (since my entire day had been planned as an outdoor yard work day) so …
Across The Universe Movie
If you’re fan of The Beatles, then this movie is for you. It features Evan Rachel Wood and Jim Sturgess.
We all know that The Beatles are great, that’s why their songs have been remade and covered by tons of different artists already. But the versions of the songs of …
Sky high movie
“Sky high” is an awesome movie, especially for kids. It is a story of a school of “superheroes”. I saw this movie few days back, and I really liked this movie, it is a very sweet story, and it has everything starting from high school romance, rivalry, raging, and …
The Horror Within
When I decided to watch the movie The Horror Within the other night, it was with the expectation it would be a low-budget, cheesy horror flick.
I was partially right. It was low budget and cheesy but it was more of a comedy than a horror movie.
Let’s face it, whenever …

The Blind Side-Movie
I anticipated that as soon as The Blind Side was available on DVD that it would be my goal to see it right away, and I did this past weekend. Just the previews and trailers alone made me cry, so I knew it would be a very heart-warming movie. …
Repo Men Movie (2010)
In the future, even the most critical organs in our body will be made artificially, and because of the high price tags, they will also be subjected to credit. And when credit is due, people sometimes could not pay. And when they do not pay, what they bought will …
Sweeney Todd
Just so we’re all clear, this review is about the 2007 movie with Johnny Depp - not the show, or the DVD of the show.
I thought this movie was a pretty good adaptation of the show. The acting is great, the songs are for the most part as good …

The Lord Of The Rings movies
So after reading the books as many times as I have, of course I HAD to see the movies in theatres when they were released. Of course, I now own them all :D. The movies had amazing special effects, and excellent casting and costume staff. Each part was played …
American History X
This is a film that I would not have personally gone out to watch had it not been recommended for me. American History X is a film centred around the White power movement and the consequences of extremism.
The film’s main protagonist is the intelligent Derek Vinyard. Following the murder …

The Fugitive
This weekend I watched The Fugitive again and was reminded what a great movie it is. I was skeptical when it was being made. I love the TV series, which is television classic, and I was afraid the theatrical movie would detract from it or parody it …
Daniel Deronda
This mini-series was such a pleasure to watch. The story is based on a novel by George Eliot. The title character, Daniel, supposedly an illegitimate son of a wealthy English aristocrat, was raised like a gentleman. He is a well educated young man who has plenty of money, but …
Black Beauty, the Movie
Black Beauty, Anna Sewell’s classic novel about the life and hardships of a black stallion in a 1870s England, proved to be a timeless piece of literature that would soon find its way onto the big screen. The sequence of events throughout the novel takes just as much importance …
Bobby movie
The movie “Bobby” is obviously one of the most star-studded movies of all time, but it isn’t that the stars are famous, it’s that they are good actors. From long-time favorites like Anthony Hopkins and Lawrence Fishburn to knew favorites like Lindsay Lohan, Shia Labeof, and …
Midnight in Paris, Woody Allen Movie
Midnight in Paris is a romantic comedy written and directed by Woody Allen. He is a very controversial character that has given us many motion pictures, some good ones but also some really odd. I never know what to expect from Woody Allen but I try to watch every …
The Orphanage (R, 2007) movie
Belen Rueda stars as Laura in this weird, yet spooky little film. The synopsis on Netflix seemed a little more ominous than the actual film. Anyway, I was a bit confused at first as to what was going on. But once I realized …
Film After Hours
Made in the 1980’s, After Hours tells the story of one man’s nightmarish trip into the Soho area.
This is a film by Martin Scorsese that Roger Ebert deemed so intense that he considered leaving the theater and coming back later after he had pulled himself together. It seems that …
30 Days of Night Movie
From the Director of Hard Candy, comes a not so average vampire flick. Produced by Sam Raimi who brought you the Evil Dead series. This movie isn’t life changing, but it absolutely deserves a watch!
This film captured my interest for the sheer fact it was a vampire movie! Over …
Life is Beautiful movie
This review does not have a summary. This movie was one of the best holocaust movies I have seen in a long time. When I saw this movie, it was all in Italian, which is for the most part the only downside to it. Although, the script in …
G.I.Joe: The rise of Cobra
I really didn’t know what to expect of this movie. I had never seen a trailer about it so I was expecting something between war and politics, but like it actually happens, like we see it on TV every day. Here everything was about money, like it usually is, …
P S I love you drama

Thomas Crown, an extremely wealthy and successful man passes him idle time buy stealing …
Shallow Grave
Danny Boyle’s Shallow Grave is a high tension, psychological thriller that unfortunately, tends to be overshadowed by his much more acclaimed Trainspotting. This is unfortunate, because in my opinion Shallow Grave is almost as fantastic as that film, and deserves the attention of more people.
The film follows three housemates; Alex, …
The Age of Adaline Movie
There are just some books that should not be made as movies, and The Age of Adaline was one of those books. I never read the book myself and after watching the movie I probably will do my best to go out of my way just to avoid it in …

The movie Black Christmas is a horror movie that has been remade. The movie I’m going to discuss in this review is the original movie. Although the movie was filmed a while ago, is still relevant and scary. The plot concerns a group of women, all …
Night of the Living Dead
Even though it was made in the 1960s, there really aren’t many movies that compare in terms of actual horror to the classic film Night of the Living Dead.
I was watching it this morning for about the 10th time and have to say it is one of the most …
Wild Things 2, thriller film by Jack Perez
Here’s a sequel to that movie with two famous actresses who kissed each other on screen. Ticket sales were pretty high for Wild Things and video sales were much bigger just for one scene. It would only make sense to cash-in on that one sequence and make Wild Things …
Pitch Perfect (movie)
One of the movies that I was privileged to watch as of recently was an unexpected gem called Pitch Perfect. I call this unexpected because when I first saw the trailer for this movie, I was much less than interested in seeing it. I was never much of a …

Pandora’s Clock
The reason I tuned into Pandora’s Clock, a 1996 TV movie, was because it starred Richard Dean Anderson, who is one of my favorite performers. I’ll start with the girlish stuff and get that out of the way. In a uniform, Anderson is yummy. He just …
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Life isn’t measured in minutes, but in moments…a tag line well portrayed in the character of Benjamin Button. The general plot concerns a man who ages backwards, thus it goes something like: “I was born under unusual circumstances.” The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is adapted …
Hannibal Rising
When I heard they were making a movie about how Hannibal Lecter became a cannibal, I was both excited but skeptical. The plot in Hannibal Rising sounded promising but I didn’t think it was a Hannibal movie without Anthony Hopkins playing the starring role.
Overall though, after watching the film, …

16 Blocks
I’m tired this morning. I had hoped to go to bed at a decent hour last night but then the movie 16 Blocks came on television. My wife and I started watching it and had intended to turn it off early; figuring it would be on again another day. …
The Imitation Game - Movie (2014)
The Imitation Game is truly a masterpiece. It follows a key part of mathematician (among other things), Alan Turing’s life during World War II and how he contributed to help break Nazi Germany’s seemingly infallible communication code named Enigma. I usually dislike period films, especially films that have anything to …
