Veggie Tales: The Pirates who don’t do anything
I’ve sat down to watch Veggie Tale movies with my daughter before. But, I’ve only done it to be nice; I’ve rarely enjoyed the experience. However, the movie The Pirates who don’t do Anything, is definitely an exception. I actually liked the movie as much as she did.
Unlike other …
Red 2010 movie
After I was more or less disappointed by the few movies that were about the same story (The A-Team , Go, The Expendables), I awaited anxiously as an incorrigible fan again to be cheated by the pensioners from Red . Especially since I’m always tempted to give a chance …

Pet Sematary
This is one scary movie, and no wonder: it’s based on a Stephen King book. Don’t watch it unless you’re a fan of horror films. Also, don’t watch it if you are an animal lover.

The Marine
Typically, when you get a movie that stars a professional wrestler, you can expect something that is going to go out of its way to show off his muscles, put him in plenty of fight scenes and fill in the background with as many explosions as possible.
The movie, …

Sisterhood of the traveling pants 2
I rented and watched the sisterhoods of traveling pants 2 today. I’ve never seen the first one but I understood most of it. It was kind of boring at parts, and I felt like something was missing in it. It is a teen movie so maybe that is why …

Troops movie
A parody of both Star Wars and Cops. On the desert planet of Tatooine, a team of stormtroopers is having a tough time keeping up law and order. It doesn’t sound like a great idea and it certainly doesn’t look like it either. Parodies tend to exaggerate too much …
The Road (John Hillcoat, 2010) movie
This is one of those movies that I would rate pretty highly, but can’t actually recommend. You would recommend a film by saying something like “Yeh, it’s great - go see it.” or ‘Yeh, it’s really funny” or “Yeh, it’s really romantic and sweet” etc etc.
For The Road I …

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (Film )
So instead of reviewing “music” exclusively, I decided perhaps I could try reviewing movies too, since I’m basically a huge movie fan too! And perhaps, as I’m hoping, my film reviews will be as much as valuable for this site too. This review is spoiler-free.
I watched “Me and Earl …
St. Elmo’s Fire (movie)
Didn’t everyone in the 1980’s love St. Elmo’s Fire? The whole thing about seeing a young Demi Moore and Emilio Estevez and Ally Sheedy was simply thrilling to millions, I am sure. I don’t see or understand the inherent value of St. Elmo’s Fire, myself. I laugh when I …

Winter Passing
Winter Passing was a beautifully made piece depicting the life of a young actress who must come to terms with her father, who has created a pseudo-family around him. While incredibly well-done, the truth is I found it rather depressing. The relationship with her father heals, the discomfort she …
JUNO
This Movie Rated PG13 ,it’s only 95 minutes not counting next attractions. Whow just who is this titular, quirky,sardonic, fresh-faced 16 or 17 years ol. Plalyed to perfection by Ellen Page. In the breakout performance of the year? maybe yes, maybe no. The opening minutes of the this movie …
Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds (2005)
The Steven Spielberg remake of the famous War of the Worlds 1953 movie was downright disappointing. The movie borders on awful, and really doesn’t come through. Despite the good cast, it was poorly directly and badly written. While the original movie was inspiring and filled with tension, …
Clash of the Titans (1981 movie)
Here is a movie that I think directors will have a wonderul time with the remake, that’s if they have what it takes to re-invent the characters and make them seem real enough for the viewing public. Based in mythical times with mythical creatures such as the gigantic titans, …
Dirty Dancing
Dirty Dancing is one of those movies that people either love or don’t care for at all. I’m definitely one of the former people, which explains why I now own three copies of the movie on DVD. When I was looking through the racks of a local store and …
