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 …
Solomon and Sheba movie
It’s amazing how many old films I’ve seen lately, including this movie, Solomon and Sheba. Actually, I want I think about most is that my shepherd-collie was named after Solomon by my sister, so when I cam across this movie, I decided to give it a watch. …
Were the Millers (movie)
When I first saw the trailer for “We’re the Millers” on television, I decided that it looked funny enough for me to see it as a light hearted comedy after it was released. I didn’t think that it would actually be hilarious though since it had actors such as …
How To Train Your Dragon Movie (2010) Animated
I have always loved animated movies. I have heard of this movie How to Train Your Dragon and it actually was on IMAX theatres because it was 3D. I did not see it in 3D but it is alright because I am not really keen on watching it like …
A Christmas Story
When I first saw A Christmas Story a few years ago, I thought it was a great film. Now, after every television station has managed to show it at least a dozen times, I’m a bit burned out on it.

The Saw movies
Oh how I loathe these movies. My fiance takes me to them every time they come out on the big screen and I just HATE them. I don’t think there’s really any acting in it. Anyone can ‘act’ in a horror movie. I mean anyone. I just don’t get …

My aunt treated me to the movies the other night, and we decided to watch Zodiac. It was just released in my country, and I have a great time watching this movie. Here is my review.
The movie is about a killing spree that sort of terrorized San …
Yes Man Movie
This is one of the many movies I have seen in the theaters, which is the best place to watch really good inspirational movies. That’s what this movie did for me- it inspired me. After watching this movie, I realized all the things I’ve never done and all the …

A Knight’s Tale (2001)
I have always enjoyed great fantasy movies, and one of my favorites is “A Knight’s Tale,” which stars the late, great Heath Ledger as Sir William Thatcher, better known as Sir Ulrich von Lichtenstein of Gelderland. Ledger, who was an incredibly talented actor, was absolutely amazing in this movie. …

Star Wars episode VI: Return of the Jedi
Out of the three original films, many cite this as the weakest of the bunch. They say that this was the beginning of the end for the Star Wars franchise.
This is for one reason, and one reason only, the Ewoks. I hate the Ewoks too. They …
Happy Feet (2006)
When I first watched the previews for Happy Feet, I was apalled and vowed never to watch the movie. Aside from a recent lack of creativity as far as CG movies are concerned, the concept of the movie seemed inexplicably bland. Indeed, the type of idea that someone comes …
Movie: The Seamstress
I was in the mood for a scary movie last night. So, my wife and I ended up watching one we had saved to our DVR called The Seamstress.
At the time, a movie about a wronged spirit who tortures her victims by poking out their eyes and sewing their …

Night at the museum
I went and saw this in the pictures. I have to say I was quite pleased. Everyone was going on about it and I thought it’s going to be really boring and stupid but I was wrong. I will admit it was not as funny as it could have …
John Wick, Movie
I love revenge movies. They appeal to our baser instincts and when they’re done well they strike us at our emotional core. John Wick is a superb revenge flick that oozes style and menace.
From the outset this film makes its intentions very clear. It is light on dialogue and …
Lost First Season
I really love watching the season, Lost. I think that it has a lot of educational things and keeps the mind going around thinking what will happen next, and who will be the next victim. This Complete First Season is a very important one for me, as …
Spiderman The Motion Picture
With great power comes great responsibility. With great movies comes greater ones. This is how I feel about the first Spiderman. I believe this movie moved the caliber of comic book-to-movie projects up a notch.
This movie showed that we can have great comic book movies with great characters and …

Lars and the Real Girl (PG-13, 2007) movie

He loves them so much and wanting to be close to them, disguises himself as a …
Prisoners (2013 movie)

Paris When It Sizzles: A film by Richard Quine (1964)
In my fascination to the whole 60’s period, there couldn’t be a more concrete illustration of what it’s like to live in those days, other than movies created at that time. My own definition of a good time spent in front of the screen —“ is a combination …

Movie Fragile
Starring: Calista Flockhart (Amy Nichols), Richard Roxburgh (Doctor Robert), Elena Anaya (Helen Perez), Gemma Jones (Mrs Folder), Yasmin Murphy (Maggie)
This movie is trite and unexciting, despite the appealing storyline behind it. I would think the Japanese and Koreans would have done better with this.
Amy took up a …

Odd Couple II

The 40 Year Old Virgin movie
The 40 Year Old Virgin was surprisingly good. I thought it might be just a dumb comedy, but it was a comedy with heart and some intelligence. Steve Carrell plays the titular character without become a caricature. Sure he does some nerdy things like collect huge …
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Yes, Jack Sparrow is back. Johnny Depp has proved once again that he’s one of the best actors in the world. Why? Because he managed to achieve a good role in, maybe, one of the weakest plots and one of the worst directions in the history of the movie …

My Bloody Valentine 3D
Yet another summer horror flick from Lionsgate studios, ‘My Bloody Valentine’ is given the increasingly popular 3D treatment, and it works beautifully.
