This is one of Adam Sandler’s movie that made me cry. At first it was a little boring since it started with Adam being a workaholic guy for the benefit of his family who is a little piss off because there were different remote control for every house hold …
Arbitrage (Movie)
“Arbitrage,” starring Richard Gere and Susan Sarandon, is the story of a billionaire’s fall from grace. The title implies that the movie will be about international investment fraud, which sounds interesting, if a bit dry. However, the film pleasantly surprises by delivering an unexpected depth.
For the genre, …
Movie Duma
Duma with Alexander Michaletos.
This movie was made for kids, but I watched it anyway because I usually enjoy animal movies. I suppose that the movie was a clone of the famous Lion adventure Born Free, but I still enjoyed it anyway.
The movie …
Kaw movie
Last night I just this movie, ‘Kaw’. actually, I don’t like kind of movie like this, but last night, there’s no such a good program in television, so I watched it while I still online and chat with my friends.
This movie is about killer ravens bird that attach to …
Jason Goes to Hell (Unrated Version)
The unrated version of Jason Goes to Hell is marginally better than the rated version, but that isn’t saying a whole lot. The movie still suffers from some plot problems, and some bad acting. After watching either version you will most likely end up feeling sorry for poor Erin …
Firehouse movie
Released in 1997, this movie called Firehouse stars Richard Dean Anderson as Lt. Michael Brooks, who ends up being shot by a sniper while fighting a fire early in the movie. Anderson, by the way, was one of the executive producers of the film, via his company, Gekko …
Wedding Daze (2004)
When I came across the movie Wedding Daze on television, I thought it was the comedy starring Jason Biggs. Instead, it was a Hallmark Original movie that, for a comedy, was actually very dumb.
It’s really disappointing that an actor like John Laroquette, who made his mark as a womanizer …
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Guillermo del Toro’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army, is a great summertime “popcorn” movie bursting at the seams with nonstop action and bizare, creative characters.
Ron Perlman was better in this sequel than he was in the original movie. Perlman brings a real level of humanity …
Dora’s World Adventure
I’m not normally someone who enjoys sitting through Dora the Explorer Cartoons with my daughter, but I was glad I sat through Dora’s World Adventure last night.
The hour long episode showed Dora traveling to different countries around the world to return stolen friendship bracelets to her friends. Along the …
Wise Girls
I watched Wise Girls the other day and I was surprised that this is a pretty good story with a rather interesting plot. Mira Sorvino stars as Meg and with 2 other actresses, they play the role of a waitress and it’s quite scary to think of it because …
Larry the Cable Guy: Witless Protection
I’m a huge Larry the Cable Guy fan; both his stand up comedy and the several movies he’s starred in recently. So, I couldn’t wait to see his newest film, Witless Protection.
While a funny movie, I have to say it really didn’t live up to the standards set by …
Movie: Nightmare on Elm Street
When it comes to classic horror movies, I can’t imagine making a list of the best without including A Nightmare On Elm Street. Wes Craven gave audiences a whole new kind of killer when he unleashed the charred murderer into the dreams of teens in the mid eighties. …
We’re The Millers (Movie)
The story about a drug dealer moving product through Mexico may not be a new one but writers Bob Fisher, Steve Farber, Sean Anders and John Morris have found a new, exciting and hilarious way to tell it.

Movie: Aliens in the Attic
When the film Aliens in the Attic first came out, my wife and I gave serious consideration to seeing it in the theater with our oldest daughter. We decided against this because we figured it wouldn’t be as good as the previews.
We finally did watch the movie this past …
Point Break movie (1991)

Untraceable
Everyone I know uses the Internet so I can understand how it can become an obsession. So, when I picked up the movie Untraceable, about a Web site that feeds off viewer ship and murders people, I really could relate.
What made the movie Untraceable believable is the fact everything …

Che: Part One, starring Benicio Del Toro
I had read a few reviews of the movie “Che” starring Benicio Del Toro, and most of them complained that it was too long at over 4 hours, and that it dragged on and was not interesting enough to hold the viewers’ attention for that long. The other night I …
Transformers
There Fight. Our World. Transformers was one of my favorite cartoons as a kid, and was ecstatic to learn that a live action movie was being made. That excitement dropped slightly when I learned who the director is, Michael Bay. Bay is a hit or miss …
Primeval
A movie by Orlando Jones, Gideon Emery, Dominic Purcell, Brooke Langton and Jurgen Prochnow.
To me, a disppointing movie. I was really looking forward to seeing the 20 feet man-eating crocodile in full fledge actions, like what I saw with Anacondas or Lake Placid. It was not to be.
The story …
Spring Breakdown
Well, I wasn’t sure what to expect when my wife and I watched the movie Spring Breakdown last night. I didn’t know if it was going to be a chick flick or if it would have a lot of unnecessary sex scenes in it.
It turned out to have neither …
Time Traveler’s Wife movie
My daughter and I just watched the Time Traveler’s wife on DVD and we both really enjoyed it. It starts out with Henry (Eric Bana), discovering he is a time traveler at the age of six, right after his mother dies. It was some kind of a getetic thing …

Monty Python and the Holy Grail is the holy grail of comedic masterpieces and quickly became a cult classic for a very good reason. This movie is filled with stereotypical British humor but it is presented in such a way as to not alienate international audiences. The jokes are …
Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Noah’s Umbrella
A few months ago, my daughter watched the Veggie Tale movie Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Samson’s Hair Brush. She liked it so much, she wanted me to order it through Netflix for her again.
However, I came across the sequel to that movie, Minnesota Cuke and the Search …

A Clockwork Orange (1971)
When it comes to masterpieces on film, Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange knows nearly no rival. While my personal experience with the movie did not come until just last year (the incessant raving from other viewers finally pushed me into the fray to give the film a watch), I’m …

Duplex is total hilarious! I watch this movie and I just feel that movies like this really crack me up; in a funny and sort of fun way. How would you feel when you move into a particular Duplex and you find an elderly woman whom is so …
Sheba, Baby (PG, 1975) movie
If you like blaxploitation films you have probably seen this one already. This one, starring Pam Grier as Sheba is one of the classics—-but not necessarily because of its cinematic greatness. Pam plays a private detective who is helping her father fight mobsters. …

Avatar - 2009 Movie
I really enjoyed this movie. I found Avatar to definitely be worth the price of admission (we saw it in IMAX 3-d, so it cost more than the usual steep movie price).
I know that the story was rather slim - in fact, everyone knew what was going to happen …

Wrong Turn
Last night wasn’t the first time I’ve watched the movie Wrong Turn. In fact, I can’t remember for sure, but I might even have written a review about it. But, I just have to say, every time I watch that film, I can�t get over how stupid it is.
Here …
While You Were Sleeping movie
Sandra Bullock is delightful and charming to watch in While You Were Sleeping, a nice little romantic comedy from 1995. While not necessarily a huge favorite, this movie is pleasant and all about happily ever after. It shows a fairly average woman who wants nothing more than …
Christmas in Wonderland
My very favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, stars in this holiday movie, “Christmas in Wonderland”. I just saw it for the first time when it aired on TV, and I have mixed feelings about it.
Patrick was great, as always. He’s heavy in the first 15 minutes of the …
Beowulf
When I first saw the previews for this movie I was not excited at ALL. I thought there was no way this could be a good movie. The animation looked really awkward from what I could tell and I also thought that 3-D went out of style …
Movie Cloverfield
I finally had a chance to watch Cloverfield on DVD. I have to admit, it was not exactly what I was expecting.
I was expecting a real story with enough footage that I could actually see what was happening, not another attempt at the Blairwitch Project. Just …

Bloodrayne
I love vampire movies so it should be a bit surprising I didn’t get around to watching the film Bloodrayne until tonight.
The movie was OK but not as good as I thought it would be.
The problem with movies based on video games is they tend to assume you actually …

Remember the titans
Usually I don’t like movies about football or any sport for that matter. I really liked this movie though. It has Denzel Washington in it. I think he did an amazing job in this movie, like he usually does. The movie was good because it had a very good …
