Knocked Up (UnRated, 2007) movie
Seth Rogen is my all-time new hero. I love that he’s shlubby, because his dry sense of humor makes him seem more attractive than he actually is. In any event, this is the whole premise of the movie “Knocked Up.” Catherine Heigl portrays Allison, …
Art Of Revenge
Art Of Revenge is a Lifetime movie that starts off with a young, married couple who seems to have it all. Or at least that is what the movie producers want you to think. Art of Revenge started off, as I perceived the movie, with a whining wife and …

2 Guns movie
I was just browsing through the On Demand Section provided from my TV Provider, I came across the title “2 Guns” My first thought was it wasn’t going to be a very good movie, but hey never judge something by it’s cover right? So I read the description of …
Breathless: A Film by Jean Luc Godard (1960)
I first had a snippet view of Breathless when it was aired in TV monde. I was rather clueless of what the film was about but admittedly I was drawn to the whimsical quality of the video. Even in stark black and white, Jean Seberg was a …

Neve Been Kissed
I like Drew Barrymore, she has such a vitality that it just bursts off the screen. I saw a movie on TV the other night that she starred in. It was called Never Been Kissed.
This was a sweet movie about a 25 year old journalist who decided …

13 going 30
“13 going 30″ is one of my favourite movies of the actress, Jennifer Garner. Apart from the fact that the story is a good mix between romance, comedy and fantasy, I feel that this actress together with her on screen partner, Mark Ruffallo make such a great couple.
This movie …

The Object of My Affection
I found a certain similarity between the movies “The Object of My Affection” and the movie released in 2000 “The Next Best Thing”. Both of these movies tackle the issue of gay people involved in bringing up children and, unfortunately both of them, are not impressive movies.
What was lacking …
Click film
We had to watch this film for school. I thought it was a weird choice since… well, it was an Adam Sandler movie and you don’t really watch those movies in school as a requirement do you? Still, my classmates and I watched it and we found out why …

Mr. Destiny (1990)
I am always saying “Be careful what you wish for, as fate it seems, is not without a sense of humor” and to this day I continue to prove that very same thing. Nothing that you wish for even comes to be exactly the way you wish it; instead, …
Requiem For A Dream movie
Requiem For A Dream is another weird film you watch late at night and then try to figure out what really happened later on. I really like this movie because it is so sorted and twisted. You just can’t l really understand what would drive people to be so …

“The Ultimate Gift” is such a good movie, I don’t know where to start reviewing it! The plot is excellent. We’ve got a wealthy old man Red, who leaves a rather unusual will. Before he dies, Red records a series of video messages. In those messages, he talks mostly …

Meet the Parents Movie
An insane comedy with Ben Stiller and an aged Robert De Niro. Stiller is a young nervous man who comes to meet his parents in law for the first time, which results in chaos and lots of humoristic situations. I personally think Ben Stiller is a talented comedian, but …
Zodiac (2007 film)
I was really disappointed by “Zodiac,” because at first glance it seemed to be the kind of material that was right up director David Fincher’s alley, what with his similarly dark, previous forays into thriller territory, like “Panic Room” and especially “Se7en.” But “Zodiac” has nowhere near the kind …
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies - Movie (2014)
“The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies” is a decent effort by director Peter Jackson to wrap up the trilogy based on the novel, ‘The Hobbit’. Now I use decent very loosely as it falls far below the quality of the first two installments in the trilogy. When I watched …
Film Bedknobs and Broomsticks
Living in the shadow of its critically accalimed sibling Mary Poppins, Disney’s Bedknobs and Broomsticks has often gotten a pretty unfair deal. Critics have been apt to compare it unfavorably to Mary Poppins, citing that it is unable to conjure the same magic even though it concerns an apprentice …

The city in the movies of 3 directors
The 3 Directors:
Bimal Roy - Kabuliwala

The Sentinel (2006) movie

Pretty simple plot to go with. There is a bug within …
Peace, Love and Misunderstanding (comedy drama)
While I do like some independent drama films, I didn’t think I would enjoy this one based on the description that I had seen of it. My impression was that it would probably be too boring for me to enjoy or I wouldn’t be able to relate at all. However, …
Star Trek (2009)
With a venerable liking for most things I’ve seen almost all of the movies and some shows, I must say that JJ did a nice work with this film. The director JJ Abrams has done a brilliant job in resurrecting an ailing franchise to the glee of millions of …
Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Sweeny Todd was such a great movie! I saw it at the Prescreening. It was a very dark and very musical and funny film all at once! I think Johnny Depp did a great job of playing the part of Sweeny Todd. I also think everyone else did a great …

Feature Film “Twilight Saga: Eclipse “
I just watched the movie Eclipse and I did really enjoy it. I have seen both of the other movies, and this is the best so far. I believe this is mostly because the budgets have gotten better and the actors have grown. Most of the …
Batman Returns
I got a chance to re-watch the movie Batman Returns last night and have to say, I can now understand why that installment of Batman movies went downhill in a hurry.
The first Batman, starring Michael Keaton, is still one of my favorite movies. This sequel to that movie wasn’t …
40 Days and 40 Nights
I was expecting Josh Hartnett to shine in the DVD movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights. Don’t get me wrong; Josh is a darling and he acted really well but the storyline is a real bummer for me.
It starts off with Josh character, Matt being dumped by his super …
