Mr. Untouchable (DVD)

A League Of Their Own (movie)
A League Of Their Own is a movie about women’s baseball. Evidently when World War II was going on, the women were left to fend for themselves, literally, in more ways than one. I knew that during the war, women were leaders in the work force because all the …

Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit,1968 movie
This is a good, although dated, family movie that you can safely watch with your children without worrying about bad language, violence, or nudity. If your child is obsessed with horses, like I used to be when I was a kid, this movie will be a great choice.

The Giver (science fiction movie)
I actually saw the trailer for the movie “The Giver” by accident, but somehow I forgot about it, because a few other things that were released around the same period of time seemed to overshadow it. However, by the time that it got on Blu-ray, I remembered enough about it …
Cross Creek movie
“Cross Creek” proves that Hollywood movie makers don’t always have to spend millions of dollars to make good films. This movie is based on an autobiographical book by novelist Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, who is best known for writing “The Yearling.” I don’t usually like Mary Steenburgen, but …
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)

The Contract (R, 2006) movie
Any film that has Morgan Freeman in it was something that I added to my Netflix queue (unless I’d seen it multiple times before). But I must say that this film will not be one of those that I rent again. The premise seemed interesting enough. …
Movie Four Christmases
Four Christmases is an excellent movie I saw in theatres. It is a romantic comedy, with a bigger emphasis on the comedy. I really enjoyed it and I think most people would as well. It is a great film to see with a couple, family, or with friends. It …
One Million Years BC movie
The appeal of the movie One Million Years BC can be boiled down to two points: Dinosaurs and Raquel Welch in a leather bikini. (Depending on your tastes you can determine which of those two points is the more important). Beyond that, well, there’s not much to …
Pitch Perfect, movie

Gidget Goes to Rome movie
The third Gidget movie was entitled Gidget Goes to Rome. It marks the last time that James Darren would appear as the very handsome and ‘oh, I’m swooning’ when I see him, Moondoggie. He was happy to move on from the character, though he understands its place …
Storm Warning Movie
Storm Warning is easily one of the best horror movies that I’ve seen in a long time, which is ironic considering that it isn’t really a horror movie, at least not in the traditional sense. If a magazine were to review this movie they would probably say it falls …
“Jane Eyre” with Timothy Dalton and Zelah Clarke
I have seen several movies based on this classic by Charlotte Bronte, and this 1983 version starring Zelah Clarke as Jane and Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester is, in my opinion, by far the best. The plot is very true to the book, and the two leading actors were …

Limitless Movie
I had not heard anything about Limitless when I walked into the theater and sat down to watch it. My initial reaction at hearing that Bradley Cooper was playing the main character was to wonder if he could pull that off; sure he has been successful as a side …
Thor The Dark World Film
What happens when the gods lose their power to something more powerful and ancient than themselves, something primal - the complete darkness? “Thor :The Dark World” is a film in which I think that the team of Marvel reaches a whole new level in their skills… Expertly served storyline …
Edge of Darkness
Mel Gibson and Ray Winstone truly rocks in this thriller movie Edge of Darkness. The entire story is kind of run of the mill but it tightly organized screenplay and not a minute to spare pace keeps the movie interesting to a big extent. I feel that if it …
Inkheart movie
The moment I heard what “Inkheart” was about, I knew I had to see that movie. For someone who loves books, the concept of book characters coming out from the pages into our world is fascinating.
“Inkheart” is based on a novel by Conrelia Funke. Those who have read the …
Across The Universe
Overview - After watching Across The Universe two days in a row, I can say that it’s probably my favorite movie of all time. Across The Universe is a movie that basically connects the lives of different people into one story and it tells the story through the use …

Overboard movie
Overboard is one of my favorite movies. No, it’s not an Oscar winner, but it’s just a fun love story that lets romance win out over all else. It stars the real life couple of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn. Russell is a widower with four …
Batman The Dark Knight Rises 2012 Movie
Dark Knight Rises. When you think about it, it certainly sounds like a Batman movie. I mean, Batman is always needing to rise above or overcome something. His world is always filled with darkness and overcoming the evils of Gotham City. But in this movie, I think there were …
Batman Forever
Batman forever is one of the worst movies ever made. It is the movie that ruined Batman. Since the movie the Batman movie series has gone downhill. The acting was just horrible. There were so many bad jokes in the movie that is was boring. Batman is supposed to …
Zorro, The Gay Blade
Stories or movies from Old California are dear to my heart, being raised in Southern California through my childhood. I think that if a double-feature were in order, this movie should be coupled with The Three Amigos. The comedy is similar.
The comedic strength in this movie stems from brilliant …
Movie Stargate
We like to watch movies, it is one of favorite pastimes. We saw the movie Stargate on cable last week. It starred Kirk Russle and it was very well done.
In this movie the opening scenes show a dig in Egypt in the 1920’s a young girl …
The Witch (2015 Horror film)
As soon as I saw the trailer and began to hear a lot of good reviews about it, I searched long and hard for the 2015 movie “The Witch”. I’m a huge supernatural horror movie fan, and so the excitement was contagious. I found it on blu-ray and I expected …

RV (Robin Williams) movie
When RV came out at the theaters, I avoided it like the plague. I like Robin Williams but I have been very disappointed by his comedies in the past.
After seeing it on DVD this past weekend, I was sorry it took me so long to see it.
I was always …
Out movie
Out, aka: Deadly Drifter, from 1982 is, well, strange. I’m not even sure how to describe the plot, if there was a plot. This collection of scenes had a unique start in how the title was present, and I give it points for that. However, considering …
The Great Gatsby (movie)
One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …
Avatar
I am not a huge sci-fi fan and Avatar was not the movie I wanted to see. I was however out numbered by my thirteen year old daughter and husband. I can not even start to explain just how spectacular the experience of wathcing this movie was. I was …
