Bedtime Stories, starring Adam Sandler, is an enjoyable family oriented comedy. It won’t win any Oscars, but it’s one you feel fairly safe watching with your kids. There is some very mild bad language, but it’s pretty tame even for its PG rating. My one biggest complaint (Spoiler alert) …

Justin Timberlake is of course, the draw for this film. But he’s not really the one who makes the most impact. I liked that he was in it. And for some reason, I felt that it wasn’t too far a stretch from how he really acts …

This silly little flick of a movie seems to be one of those that people either love, for whatever reason, or hate. It was filmed in 1997 when the Soviet Union no longer existed, but certain fascination with it obviously still did; so the moviemakers invented this Eastern European …

I took my mother out to see this movie for her birthday back when it came out. I’m not exactly sure when it came out but I believe it was around 2005 or so. I was actually the one who wanted to see, not my mother, but she agreed …

I am a fan of Quentin Tarantino, with a caveat-I enjoy the action and dialogue of his movies, but I sometimes find that some of the violence is so gratuitous, that it doesn’t seem reasonable, and therefore, my enjoyment of the movie is less. I am not opposed to …

Thunderball with Sean Connery and Claudine Auger.
This is one of the earlier James Bond sequels and therefore features the super handsome Sean Connery in the lead. It does lack some of the refined touched that we came to enjoy in the newer sequels such as …

I just finished watching the ‘unrated’ version of the DVD for this movie, and I must say, it’s totally hilarious. The building up of the movie about Charlie Logan (Dane Cook) being hex by the girl that he refused to make out with when they were young until him …

The movie Twins is probably Schwarzenegger’s best attempt and, while there are some funny scenes, it really isn’t all that great.
He and Danny Devito play twin brothers …

Alfred Hitchcock’s final film, Family Plot is a gentle little final film for one of cinema’s greatest filmmaker’s ever. It is thrilling but it is not one of his trips into the world of stark horror that he delved into with Psycho or the Birds.
And this suits him just …

I watched a movie the other night that I really couldn’t get into at all. It was called Vanishing Point and featured some actors I had never heard of. I don’t usually discriminate when it comes to independent or B list actors, if you can act, i’ll watch your …

George Roy Hill works well with Robert Redford, including in this 1975 production, The Great Waldo Pepper. This movie is a little strange and sort of warpy. I really don’t know how to describe it. It’s dramatic and fun, but it’s not mainstream in many ways. …

I remember watching The Disappearance of Flight 412 when it came on TV for the first time in 1974. I bought it, hook, line, and sinker. I’m not necessarily talking about the UFO bit, well, yes, I am.

This movie starring Kate Beckinsdale and Luke Wilson, was interesting to watch. It is a bit suspenseful, with decent acting and a decent story, but the ’snuff’ factor is a bit sensationalistic and the story itself is a bit short. It is still good enough to watch and be …

Reality Bites reminded me quite a bit of The Blair Witch Project. Now that makes me smile because The Blair Witch Project hooked me from the start and made me think the movie was real. Reality Bites, on the other hand, did not make me think the same thing, …
