Dodgeball movie
Comedy about a team of nerds who decide to team up in a dodgeball competition and defeat their rivals. That’s the whole plot of this film so it doesn’t really leave a lot of room for thought. The humor is of a kind that don’t appeal to me at …
The movie Alvin and the Chipmunks
I love Alvin and the Chipmunks. I loved the cartoons and I loved the Christmas tapes that I have. I had been wishing that Alvin and the Chipmunks could make a comeback and then all of a sudden BAM! There before me on the television was the trailer for …
When Harry Met Sally (movie)
When Harry Met Sally is the ultimate boy meets girl, girl doesn’t like boy, boy meets girl again and they become friends, boy and girl fall in love and get married story. I love this movie! I know, it’s a little, sappy love story and it was filmed a …
Doomsday, science fiction thriller film
This is one of those movies that you skipped when it was released in theaters. Doomsday might have come out at the wrong time or the trailers didn’t look very appetizing. With the movie being released on video, should you take a look at this film or should you …
The X-Files Fresh Bones Episode
“Fresh Bones” was the 39th episode of the popular 90s American television series “The X-Files”. It I also the 15th episode of the popular series from the show’s second season. I just watched this episode recently on the Sci-Fi cable television channel, and thought that this was one …
Carrie Movie
Carrie is one of the scariest movies I have ever seen in my life. I think it truly is a super scary movie. This is one of the Stephen King’s films ever. I think he truly does bring something special to the whole movie. The movie truly does bring something …
Almost Famous movie
This is my favorite movie of all time. I first watched it many years ago, when I was working at a video store and allowed to take home movies in the afternoon. I was, for the entire length of the movie completely enraptured. Since then, I …
Nanny Mcphee
Nanny Mcphee is a bit boring film with some unconvincing scenes which no logic. Emma Thompson plays Nanny McPhee in the movie and she has some magical powers which is not really convincing. Cedric Brown played by Colin Firth ia a widower and has seven children who are extremely …
Ghost Rider
When I saw the preview to Ghost Rider, I was impressed. I am a fan of Nick Cage and at the time he had 2 movies soon to be released. The imagery of the Ghost rider was good, graphic and it really illustrated the concept; Rider for the devil. …
Movie: Furry Vengence
As I mentioned in another review, my daughter convinced my wife to get movies from one of those movie kiosks this past weekend (they just don’t seem to understand we have Netflix for a reason). Since she got two movies for the price of one, my wife decided to …
Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner
Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner is just a fabulous movie, rich in theme and substance. No matter how many times I watch this 1967 classic, it still touches my soul.
The performances just can’t be matched. Hepburn and Tracy, in their last coupling together on film, are dynamic, …

The Emperor’s Club movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Emperor’s Club, which is a movie that is about three years old or so. I am a huge fan of movies that center around professors in an academic setting. I have always had a passion for teaching, but do not think I …
Kingsman: The Secret Service (action adventure spy movie)
Kingsman: The Secret Service was one of those movies that I just knew I had to see right after watching the trailer for the first time. The trailer gave me the impression that the movie would be funny, action-packed and overall exciting. When I did actually get the chance to …
The Faculty
There’s so many movie based on story about alien attack in many different type. Like The faculty, this movie is tell about the alien attack too but it’s in hidden mission, the alien attacks start from the school.
The story begin when Cassie (Elijah Wood) find some strange species in school, …
Richie Rich
Richie Rich was a very good movie that came out in the 1990s. It is based off of the TV show that was a cartoon. But this movie is all about the real life Richie Rich. It it basically the same story as the old cartoon TV show, but much …
The Last Shot (2004)
Let us talk about a movie that falls under the category of a complete ‘miss’. This movie stars some of the best actors in Hollywood like Alec Baldwin, Matthew Broderick, Tony Shaloub, Ray Liotta, Toni Collette and even Eric Roberts, but even though it had these people in the …

Persepolis the movie
I watched this movie just today with my mom. I was told by my friends it was nice and all that, but when I watched it, I wasn’t sure how to feel. The beginning was very interesting. I loved the way they made this movie just …
Scooby Doo on Zombie Island
I’m not normally a fan of Scooby Doo movies that don’t follow the classic format of the ghost really being someone in disguise. But, I will say I did like Scooby Doo on Zombie Island.
This movie, which has Scooby and the gang investigating a haunting on a Louisiana Island …
House of Wax movie
Not the one to come out earlier this year, but the original 1950s movie with Vincent Price. I believe it was the first film shot in 3D tecnique, but of course that loses its effect if you don’t watch it with 3D-glasses at the theatre, which I didn’t do.
The …
Unknown (movie)
Like many of the movies I’ve watched recently, one of the first places that I heard of the movie “Unknown” was on a movie blog. The plot sounded very promising, so I got the movie and watched it with two people as soon as I had the time. Everyone …
Bandolero movie
Bandolero was a really strange western with an odd theme that was quirky but alluring. It has a bouncy element to it. I actually like the theme music quite a bit. It fits the movie.
Basically, James Stewart hears about a band of outlaws that have been …
Bad Santa
I’m not a huge Billy Bob Thornton fan so, when his movie Bad Santa came out, I really avoided watching it. However, it was on one of our movie channels the other day and, since there was nothing better on, I figured I would give it a chance.
It wasn’t …

Home Alone movie
The original and still the best. This side-splitting comedy tells the tale of a kid who thought he had wished his family away. Enjoying his spoils he indulges his child-like appetite like only a kid can. Meanwhile, two buglars are rampaging through the neighborhood stealing all in their path …
Halloween
I absolutely hate the new “Halloween,” this crude, obscene, bloody, gory, stupid, disgusting slasher. I have not seen the original version made sometime in the 70s, but from what I hear, it did not have all the sliced up bodies on screen; this one does, and seems to relish …
The Gold Rush
Actors : Charlie Chaplin(Tramp), Georgia Hale(Georgia), Mac Swain(Big Jim),Tom murray(Black Larsen).

This fantastic classic comedy ,chaplin’s own favourite and One of the best films of 1925 , reedited by chaplin adding music and narration in 1942 is now available in video cd by Sound …
Trust The Man
“Trust The Man” had to be all about the actress, Julianne Moore because, at the time, she was the one mostly known in Hollywood. Apart from this, the director and scriptwriter of this movie is Moore’s husband, Bart Freundlich. I must admit that the actor that truly steals the …
Freakazoid: Season 1 DVD
I have been waiting for Freakazoid to come out on DVD ever since I accidentally taped over a couple of episodes on my home-made VHS set (whoops). Warner Brothers has finally heard the cries of fans and has given us a three-disc set of the first season. The episodes …
Batman Begins (2005 film)
The 2005 film “Batman Begins” starring Christian Bale and Katie Holmes, along with a cast of other remarkably talented actors, gave me some very new light on Batman and what he stands for. I really got swept up in Bruce Wayne’s life and saw for myself the reasons behind …
Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Gallop movie
I have to say that the first thing I noticed about this second entry in the movie’s Miss Marple mystery movie by Agatha Christie is the very bright and campy musical theme. It’s just so bubbly and merry that it seems like follows should be more of a …
A Few Good Men movie
A Few Good Men is a very good movie and a very powerful film. I think this is one of the best military movies ever made. Even though it did not have many if any gun battles or fights it truly kept you at the edge of your seat and …
Black Swan Movie
2010 has not been a great year for movies. When the pickings are slim, you immediately notice the movies that get gleaming reviews for outstanding performances and innovation. Black Swan has been such a movie. It is difficult to avoid seeing the various ads and reviews for this film. …
Spirit Trap
Starring: Billie Piper (Jenny), Sam Troughton (Nick), Luke Mably (Tom), Emma Catherwood (Adele), Alsou (Tina), Chike Okonkwo (Edmund Joseph)
This movie is actually not too bad; it started off as rather mundane, but the idea of an old clock that linked the past to the current is quite refreshing!
Jenny …
Wanted: Movie
I thought Wanted was a very good, interesting and overall rather unique kind of film.
I hadn’t seen the plot before, but was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be an excellent watch.
It has a lot of bizarre aspects to it, and I know a couple of people who …
Movie : World of Silence
World of Silence is another suspense/horror/drama film from the land of South Korea. This one is a favorite of mine and I am really glad I watched it. While it wasn’t at all what I was expecting to see, I am glad that it was completely different. …
The Good Mother (movie)
One of my guilty pleasures is watching some of the more modern Lifetime movies, especially if I think that they have fairly interesting plots and fairly tolerable acting. These can be a little hard to find especially in a sea of low budget movies that Lifetime seems to bring. …
White Men Can’t Jump
I think White Men Can’t Jump was a great movie. Now I love playing basketball, and I used to play a lot of basketball as a kid. And I think that is part of the reason I love this movie. I also have always been a Wesley Snipes fan. I …
Taken movie
Now this is how you do an action movie. All the car chases that seemed hollow and perfunctory in the Transporter movies are done well.
The story’s simple enough, the trailer really gives you all the info you need to know. It’s a father racing against …
Unlikely Angel movie
Unlikely Angel is a holiday movie from 1996 which stars Dolly Parton as a rather selfish country music performer (aside from the selfish part, not a big stretch … again) who dies suddenly. Being egotistical, Ruby Diamond can’t enter Heaven without doing a good deed first, so it’s …
Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective
I really enjoyed Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective. This was a really cool movie. And sine I love Mice to much, it was no wonder I was going to like this movie so much. The movie is kind of like Sherlock Homles but in cartoon forum. And Instead of humans …
Boyhood (drama movie)
I only found out about the movie Boyhood after seeing the actress Patricia Arquette nominated and win awards for her role in it. Therefore, I was curious to see what the movie was about and her performance was like. After watching it though I had to admit that while I …
The Secret DVD
I’ve studied manifestation for about 15 years and understand basic principles, but The Secret really summed manifestation up. This movie was emotional, funny and introspective. Australian Rhonda Byrne put the movie together after her father died. She read The Science of Getting Rich, which her father left to her. …
Along Came Polly
The actor Ben Stiller team up with the actress Jennifer Aniston to give us this unique comedy “Along Came Polly”. Considering that Aniston was involved in this movie just in the initial stages of her relationship problems with her husband Brad Pitt, she gives a great interpretation of her …
The Godfather Movie
A film I consider to be one of the best films ever made is “The Godfather,” made in 1972 and directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
As close as any film will ever come to being a true masterpiece, “The Godfather” set a new standard of excellence that has only been …
Schindler’s List Movie 1993
I was only 13 years old when this movie was shown in theaters, Rated-R as it is, it sends curiosity in my mind as i hear people talk about it everywhere. A Steven Spielberg Film, all would have judged it even without seeing the film, with high expectations of …
Kojak: Flowers for Matty movie
I rarely watched Kojak when it was a regular series on CBS. I’m not intrigued by Telly Savalas, who played the role, and I wasn’t a particular fan of the detective, either. I did find myself somewhat into this 1990 post-series movie. Kojak: Flowers for Matty …
