The Italian Job, movie (1969)
Chances are, you know who Michael Caine is. The Prestige, Inception and the recent trio of Batman films are only a few of the films to showcase his talents. Yet, there was a period where no one outside of England knew who he was. Thanks to …

Mighty Joe Young (1998)
King Kong played out on a smaller stage; this movie has the very same appeal like that. Joe is the gorilla in question; he has seen many things during the course of his life and has come to terms with them. Earlier in his life, his mother was killed …

The Notebook Movie
I watched the movie The Notebook some time ago and thought it was a pretty decent, unique movie. But, today, I ended up watching it again. I’m not sure why. But, I just didn’t like the film as much as I thought I did.
Perhaps my views and preferences have …
20th Century Women (2016 Comedy-Drama Film)
The moment the trailer of Mike Mills’ latest film “20th Century Women” arrived I became immediately excited. The sense of nostalgia in recreating the 1970’s again (even if I was born in the 90’s) excites me in a way that I felt euphoric just thinking what the film could be. …

Ocean’s 13
I’m not going to lie. I thought Ocean’s 12 was absolutely terrible! Ocean’s 11 was, in my opinion, a very solid movie, that I thoroughly enjoyed. So when the third in line of the sequel was announced, I was a bit skeptical. But, nonetheless, I …
Twilight (2008 Movie)
Twilight became a fast phenomenon this past year due to the hype caused by the movie that was produced. Stephanie Meyer wrote a classic novel about the love between a vampire and and human that will be a favorite among young people for generations to come. However, …
The Princess Diaries
I didn’t expect this movie to be any good, but I admit I was wrong. Even though the story follows a very familiar template - a plain unpopular girl gets transformed into a gorgeous celebrity - the movie has a lot more than that. Mia, the unpopular teenage girl, …
Swarmed movie
Swarmed is essentially a movie about a lot big, bad bugs, specifically wasps. It all starts with an experimental chemical that gets taken from a lab and sprayed on some wasps. It’s not a good thing. The wasps become more intense and people-hungry as the movie …
The Invisible Movie
The Invisible is a movie that I recently picked up and was fairly surprised to find that I liked it, at least more than I thought I would. This is another one of those straight to DVD releases, but unlike other movies this one has some spectacular acting and …
High School Musical
This movie was very popular, especially among the preteen girl crowd. I can see why - they definitely chose actors/actresses that would appeal to that age group, including the boy who plays Troy (main character).
The movie itself is sort of silly in the way a lot of kids movies …
The Devil Probably movie
A late film by french influential filmmaker Robert Bresson, who is very much appreciated among film interested people. This is none of his better films, but it does fulfill his stylistic way of creating cinema. Bresson invented a minimalistic way of making film, with almost no music or dialogue; …

I just watched the movie “The Last King of Scotland” and was delighted. I saw the previews in the theatre about a year ago and looked forward to seeing the movie. However when it came to the local cinema I wasn’t able to fit it into my schedule and …
Love at First Hiccup 2009 movie
I expected a movie disaster, as a response to: Date Movie, American Virgin or American Pie recent productions.
I expected the Love at First Hiccup to be more than a visual disaster and after viewing it to be mentally affected and disgusted but my expectations were shattered. Love at First …
Rush Hour 3
It lives up to the name of rush hour and rush hour 2. If you watched the first two and liked them you will like this one. It’s a great comedy. They are both hilarious in the movie yet once again. It’s also not just a couple of funny …

“The Prince and Me” is the romantic movie that made the actress, Julia Stiles even more popular after her roles in important teen movies like “10 Things I Hate About You” and “Save the Last Dance”.
“The Prince and Me” is a cute movie about Paige (Stiles) and Edward, a …
Pulp Fiction (1994)
There is no other movie like Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction.” It is definitely at the top of my favorites list. This movie is chocked full of best talent that Hollywood has to offer. With big names like Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Uma Thurman and …
Movie: Witless Protection
I loved the first Larry the Cable Guy movie I saw, the one where he is a health inspector. So, I figured I couldn’t go wrong with the movie Witless Protection.

Deep Impact (1998)
Deep Impact is, yes, one of those catastrophy-blockbusters dealing with the subject of an asteroid hitting the Earth, and the way humanity tries to deal with it. All in all, it is a mediocre film, but in a way it did catch my attention. I think there’s much more …
Michael Jackson’s This is It movie 2009
I didn’t know what to expect from this film before I saw it. I knew it was a collection of footage from the show that sadly, never made it to the stage. It is a shame. It would have been so spectacular. The amount of work and devotion that …
Rush - Movie
After the extraordinary success of “Rocky” sports movies almost invariably follow the stereotypical formula, with slight variations, determined by the taste of the author. In “Rush” opportunities for freely creative imagination are relatively limited as it recreates real events related to real people .
The 70s. The phones have …
Eat, Pray, Love Movie
Pretty good movie based on a decent book.
I enjoyed this movie more than I expected to. Julia Roberts isn’t my favorite actor, although I think in the case of Liz Gilbert, she was probably the best choice. I also enjoyed the movie more than I did the …

I don’t know about you all but I enjoy the series called Mr Monk on cable. Before Mr Monk came on the TV, the star of the show was in a movie called Thirteen Ghosts.

Justice League: Throne of Atlantis (2015 Animated Superhero Movie)

Speak the Movie
I read the book speak a little while before I watched the movie, and both were equally bad. The movie was a little more confusing, and the characters were even more fake that they were in the book ,but at the same time, it was all okay because I …
The Fast and the Furious 4
Today I just watch the new movie Fast and Furious 4 in theatre. It’s the sequel of the previous movie Fast and Furious 1,2, and 3. The story is not so different with the previous movie, it’s about catching the bud guy and always involved racing car on it.

F. Scott Fitzgerald and ‘The Last of the Belles’ movie
F. Scott Fitzgerald and ‘The Last of the Belles’ from 1974 was a bore to me. I’ve never really been into the Fitzgerald world. The Great Gatsby didn’t thrill me either, and I saw it in the theater, back when screens were huge. I also like …
