OK, as far as Raiders of the Lost Ark is concerned, it�s a great movie in terms of action sequences and special effects, but the script leaves a little to be desired.
The first in the Indiana Jones trilogy, the Raiders of the Lost Ark has a slightly harder task …

Since the genre of movies I am inclined with the most seems to have hit a rut that it is now stuck in (horror), my shift is moving more towards those movies that involve some sort of quest for economic prowess and financial freedom, with the nitty-gritty being displayed …

On Friday evening my family and I were waiting for my mother to get to my grandmother’s house after she was finished at the hair dresser, so what I did to kill time was watch a little television. That was how I saw the movie “Mr. Wrong” on the …

I just adore Bye Bye Birdie and always have. It’s an upbeat, delightful movie musical with a cast that includes one of my favorites, Dick Van Dyke. Dyke’s good-natured demeanor make him perfect for this role as a budding musician with an overbearing mother and a very …

I must give credit to Drew Barrymore for bringing to the big screen “Charlie’s Angels” with the girls not using firearms but instead using martial arts to defend themselves. The angels Barrymore, Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz had to undergo 3 months martial arts training …

I am a horror genre fan,and since this movie fell into the same category,I wanted to see it.But was disappointed from the horror point of view.
The story is about how a person dies after receiving a missed call on their cellphone.It begins from a girl drowning in her swimming …

I just watched Slumdog Millionaire, it was my first time seeing it. It was a blu-ray rental and I have to say it is a movie that is superb and deserved all of the Golden Globes, Oscars and Bafta awards that it won.
The movie follows a young boy …

Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.
From someone who watched the likes of Rashomon to My Favorite Martian on a daily rotating basis, I sadly found myself living …

“Just like Heaven” is simply a great romantic movie with a touch of magic and fantasy. What would you do if you start seeing a ghost? I personally would scream out loud and run away, however David Abbott went to find help to assist her crossover the other side! …

Remember the tv show Charmed? This was about three sisters who fought demons and struggled to build personal lives as well. I must admit, this is among my favorite shows. I have almost all of the seasons on DVD and I don’t let anyone in my family touch them …

I am always wary in spending money watching local films. However, my sister dragged me to watch this movie called “Love You to the Stars and Back” (I know such an awfully long title that doesn’t match the movie at all - Philippine local films have plenty of that) yesterday …

When I came across the movie Wedding Daze on television, I thought it was the comedy starring Jason Biggs. Instead, it was a Hallmark Original movie that, for a comedy, was actually very dumb.
It’s really disappointing that an actor like John Laroquette, who made his mark as a womanizer …

I’ll start this off by setting the record straight….sadly, I am a massive harry potter fan.. i Know sad at 18 years old isn’t it? But, as such i have read the books enough times to know fallacys in these films when i see them, and it seems that …

As a liberal democrat, I enjoy Michael Moore’s films. While they are obviously biased, they are backed up with facts. But the bias is what the republicans mock. In this film, Michael Moore questions why Americans as a whole seem to have this deep-rooted fear of a universal health …

In 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox released the marvelous musical, Call Me Madam with Ethel Merman, Donald O’Connor, and Vera-Ellen. It’s high-powered, high-energy, and high-five fun. I love these kind of innocent musicals where the story is lighthearted and the songs merry. Oh, there’s some heartbreak and drama …

The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand with “Doctor Strange”. Not only does this movie introduce a new hero and defender of the Earth, but it even manages to expand the scope of the already epic franchise as a whole.
True, it is an origin story, but it …

A french artsy science fiction film in the same style as La Jetee, this time by Alain Resnais. It is about a man who tried to attempt suicide but survived. He gets involved in an experiment with time travel. The rest is for each viewer’s own interpretation.
Even if I …

This is, without a doubt, one of the worst movies I have seen in my entire life. Of course, at the same time, it is also one of the funniest, solely because it is one of the most pitiful excuses for entertainment I have ever encountered. Which is a …

I like Drew Barrymore, she has such a vitality that it just bursts off the screen. I saw a movie on TV the other night that she starred in. It was called Never Been Kissed.
This was a sweet movie about a 25 year old journalist who decided …

Although I was not the least bit interested in it when I saw it advertising to be released in theatres, I both heard and read so many good reviews about it from friends and from people online, that I couldn’t help but feel eager to watch the movie once …

Recently I have been going through some movies on a blog that a person listed as the funniest movies that they had seen that were released within the past two years. Well, the movie “I Love You, Phillip Morris” was one of them, and I only got to see …

Last night was the first time I …

Last Sunday night, my wife and I went out to the local theater to see the new movie Vantage Point. Except for the fact that we had to sit in one of the front rows n the very end, the experience was definitely a pleasureable one.
The …

I must say that I don’t like much watching Uma Thurman movies. She chooses to bring to big screen such bizarre characters. “The Truth about Cats & Dogs” is the only movie where I truly like her interpretation because it fits so well with the script of this movie. …

The movie White Chicks is a very funny one. I love this movie and would see it all over again. It’s very funny. The stars are the Wayne’s brothers. They were the white chicks. They got transplant and look like white chicks. The funny part is that they don’t …

Final Destination 3 in super 3-D is exactly what you would expect from such a teen horror outing. The plot is incomprehensible, the acting wooden, and the entire premise implausible, yet it still delivers the goods as far as presenting an entertaining horror excursion. The audience that I viewed …

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is a franchise reboot of the original Fullmetal Alchemist anime that came out in 2003-2004.

I had completely different expectations from the Diary of a wimpy kid in large part due to a trailer that promised more surprises and maybe even a different kind of comedy that would have to develop a more intelligent humor.
But unfortunately for me and for those who were expecting …

I thought that the movie “The Golden Compass” had a wealth of potential. When I saw it advertising to be released in theatres, I thought it would have been something like “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe”, however, when I watched it I realized …

I rented this movie because of Michael Caine, and, as usual, he does a good job as Dr. Larch who runs a children’s home/hospital in Maine. One of the boys, Homer Wells (Tobey Maguire) grows up in the orphanage to be a young man and is has been trained …

On the whole, I liked this film. It is kind, heartfelt, sincere, and even touching in some places. But the plot is not devoid of sins, clichés, and too simple script decisions. I know that the movie is based on a novel by Jack London. Let me tell you right …

When my wife picked out the movie Fingerprints off our Netflix instant watch queue last night, I honestly wasn’t expecting a whole lot from the movie. After all, most of the so-called horror films out there are nothing more than soft-core porn in disguise or think extra blood and …
