Dumbo
Dumbo is a timeless animation classic. This movie will forever live in the hearts of those who saw it. I think that the story of the tiny elephant with big ears was very cute and very sad as well. I was very happy as a kid when I saw this …

The movie Turner and Hootch

Annabelle (2014) - Spin-off of ‘The Conjuring’
For me, most horror movies that have been produced in the last decade have merely used rehashed cliches and the same formulas to create what often turns out to be a subpar movie. The story doesn’t flow often and cheap tactics are used to incite fear. ‘Annabelle’ is another one …

Insurgent Movie (2015)
Insurgent, based on the book of the same name by Veronica Roth, is the sequel to 2014’s Divergent. From the trailers shown, I had hopes that the film would be better than the first. However, it ultimately falls short of expectations and represents a step back for the franchise.
Insurgent starts …
Bride Wars movie

Spongebob Squarepants
I feel that anybody, no matter how young, old or conservative you are, who has never watched even a single episode of the cartoon series, Spongebob Squarepants, is seriously missing out on some creatively crazy genius.
I think the cartoon will be enjoyed by anybody with a sense of humor, …
The Gambler- 2015, Drama, Thriller Movie
This movie is the remake of the movie “The Gambler” released in 1974 featuring James Caan. I watched this film only because of Mark Wahlberg, but I have to say that it was his one of the worst movie ever. It looks great on the paper because of its brilliant …

Sin City Spoke To My Soul

500 Days of Summer (2009 film)
I had first been interested in the 2009 film, 500 Days of Summer, because one of its main actors (Zooey Deschannel) has always impressed me in other films that she has done. However, her character Summer did little less then annoy and disappoint me. I constantly felt sorry for …
Broken Bridges movie
“Broken Bridges” has a good story with great potential in attracting a great audience, however something along the line failed. The acting is awful, the filming and editing is sadly not good enough and the sound of this movie is terrible! In other words, this movie sucks!

Todd Sweeny
Remember Rick Morranis in Little Shop of Horrors? Well take a twisted theme, subtract the alien plant, and add a pyschodic barbor and you’ve got Tim Burton’s Todd Sweeny. The movie was a bit fruity with it being a complete musical, but the plot is there. Tim Burton must …
