Saw is a new kind of horror film that I had never seen before, the movie came off tacky at times, but it was interesting and cool enough to let the small things go, the plot I think is really good and kept me interested, 2 people wake up …

I had actually been dying to see this movie although I kept passing over it in my Netflix queue. I feel that you have to be in a particular mood to deal with introspective ramblings of 30ish, 40ish people traveling the country simply to taste wine and sow …

I’ll say right up front that I don’t much care for Russell Brand, and although his performance as British rock star Aldous Snow in 2008’s “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” was a good and humorous counterpoint to sad-sack lead Jason Segel, in general I find him sort of irritating-his hosting gig …

I grew up with Transformers. I owned Optimus Prime, watched the cartoons, knew the theme song. So there was both great anticipation and a small amount of dread when I heard that Michael Bay was producing a live action, CGI filled Transformers movie. The anticipation came …

This flick is a nice blend of action and comedy. The comedy however is not in performance, but the characters do have a good sense of humor. The story’s abt two cops Tango and Cash, that were wrongly accused in a case, and are convicted and send to …

I am of the opinion that this movie is one of the greatest drug stories ever told. Johnny Depp and Benicio DelToro star in Terry Gilliam’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s cult novel. The movie opens with the two lead characters Raoul Duke (Depp) and his attorney (Del Toro), …

When I first saw the movie “Tropic Thunder” advertising, all I could think about was that it was not going to be funny because the actor and comedian “Jack Black” was in it. I normally have a problem with that actor as I think he is not a very …

“The Judge” wasn’t really one of those movies whose trailer sparked much interest for me. As a matter of fact I didn’t expect that it would be very good even though it had some talented actors in it such as Robert Downey Jr, Robert Duvall, and Vera Farmiga. However after …

The Grudge 2 is a sequel to The Grudge or as I say a very lame sequel to the Grudge. They overplayed the grudge lady to much and went into her passed. And instead of being a poor woman that was murdered by her husband it turned out that …

The director Rob Zombie hasn’t really proven himself with his first two releases, House Of 1000 Corpses and The Devil Rejects. Both movies were mediocre, House Of 1000 Corpses was down right awful. Zombie’s sense of style might not have been ready for the big screen but Dimension Films …

From 1982, Missing tells a true story that isn’t always easy to watch. It’s an intense drama that can challenge one’s emotions. It’s a well written production, however, and does tell a story. I hate to term it entertaining, considering the subject matter, but the truth …

I am reviewing the movie, As Good as it Gets, starring Jack Nicholson, Helen Hunt, and Greg Kinnear. This movie focuses around Jack Nicholson’s character, Melvin, who is an obsessive compulsive, rude, inconsiderate human being with many other problems. His neighbor is Simon, played by Greg Kinnear, a …

The movies based on the works of the great master of horror H.F. Lovecraft generally, I think, are complete tragedy, because the directors usually ignore the atmosphere that makes the stories of this author special and put a greater emphasis on the excess ketchup blood and the monsters, losing …

The movie “Before Sunrise” is an excellent example that you don’t need to do a lot of stunts or spend a lot of money to make a great movie. This movie shows that a simple and straight forward story with two great actors and good filming crew can do …

I, for one, believe that each should stick to what they can do…rappers rap, singers sing, dancers dance, actors act, and so on. When they try to do things that they know nothing of, they make a fool of themselves. Now, Bow wow is no stranger to the acting …

Disney truly has outdone itself this time with “High School Musical 3.” It is a fitting finish to the entire franchise that spawned such fervor in the preteen/high-schooler-wannabe population, and I am very pleased with the ending. The theaters were packed with people of all ages to see the …

I think there are two great all time romantic movies Gone with the Wind and Pretty Woman. How did a movie created in 1990 managed to be as successful as the very much renewed 1930’s classic movie? Simply - great actors, script, filming and director. This is …

Harrison Ford is mostly known for his involvement in bringing to the big screen the “Indiana Jones” block busters; however I much prefer him in the movie “Sabrina” where Ford shows of his unique charm rather than his Indiana Jones skills. It comes to no surprise that this movie …

This documentary by frenchman Georges Franju shows an unpolished and uncensored look into a slaughterhouse in France. No dialogue, all we see is how the day goes on in a slaughterhouse. This is a most shocking film, scenes that are never shown in reality. It’s hard to understand how …

Way before the Spider-Man movies ever existed, director Sam Raimi made a film called The Evil Dead. This film, in no way, is a blockbuster hit. Evil Dead is a classic bad movie, which was meant to scare, yet at the same time, humor.
The movie stars a young man …
