Girl Positive movie

I’ve honestly never sat down to watch Lifetime movies before. But, after seeing the movie Girl Positive, I think I’ll be doing that more often.
At first, I didn’t know what to think about the movie, which is meant to be an honest portrayal of how the HIV virus can …

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist

Yep, it’s another teen movie. But it’s not just another one of those typical ones. Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is perhaps one of those movies that actually tackle something more than just the cliché jock/nerd romance. The story follows a recently heartbroken high school student, Nick O’ Leary. …

Meet the Spartans

I’m slowly becoming more disappointed with the way comedy movies are going in the United States. There was a time where I could go to the movies (a comedy) and find myself laughing hysterically for a good hour and a half. Now I find myself staring at the screen …

Sweeney Todd

Johnny Depp is one of my favourite actors. Tim Burton is one of my favourite directors. And when both worked together in Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet Street, I am more than glad to watch it. And I was not wrong! It is a great movie. One of …

The Lady Vanishes movie

One of my favorite Hitchcock films from his time in England. An old lady disappears while travelling in Switzerland, and when this is noticed by two of the passengers a most hideous plot is revealed little by little to a most unexpected end.
One of the first brilliant examples of …

The movie Turner and Hootch

What adult does not remember Turner and Hootch. Although I am not necessarily a Tom Hanks fan, I really enjoyed this movie. It was so cute to me becuase it did a great job of teachong about overcoming difficulties and the curve balls that life throws at you.
Hootch was …

American Beauty movie

While his wife (Annette Bening) is out sleeping with her competition in the real estate business, middle aged business man Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey) gets fired from his job, blackmails his former boss, smokes pot, works out, lusts after a teenage girl and eventually gets murdered by his homophobic …

“Ice Twisters” the movie 2009

Just from reading the synopsis on Netflix, Ice Twisters looked as if it was going to be a lower budget copy-cat disaster movie with a weather theme. That’s exactly what it was. But, to be fair, it was enjoyable, more so than I would have expected. When the film …

12 Angry Men (Remake)

In 1997, someone got the not-so-bright idea to recreate a theatrical classic, 12 Angry Men. The problem for me is that the original production was about as near to perfect as you can get. Headed by Henry Fonda and a legendary cast, this film was dramatic and …

Fame (2009 movie)

I didn’t jump at watching the movie Fame like a few of the younger people I know did, because I could remember watching the television series from the eighties in the early nineties when I was a little girl; and based on what I saw when the movie …

Nosferatu

Nosferatu is such a cool, classic movie. We are talking black and white, 1929, horror at its best. Nosteratu, if you don’t know, is a vampire. He’s a Dracula, but not Dracula. Nosferatu is a silent film and what is so very cool about it is the looks, the …

Roll Bounce (2005 movie)

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 …

I Am Legend (R, 2007) movie

I have finally gotten around to seeing “I Am Legend”. I wish that I hadn’t seen the movie… Or better yet, I wish that I had read the novel, or seen 1971’s “Omega Man” first. At any rate, I am not really a huge Will …

Shun Li and the Poet — Drama

In Venice’s lagoon which is far off from the city itself is a quaint fishing hamlet named Chioggia. It is a place where, for a very long period of time, the Fishers of the small village have been involved feeding the metropolitan area’s appetites. It is here …

Hanna ( 2011 Movie )

The movie stars Saoirse Ronan, a young Irish actress who played the role of Hanna. Her father Erik played by Eric Bana an ex-CIA person. The antagonist of the story is Cate Blanchett who plays Marissa Wiegler.
This was directed by Joe Wright who also directed critically-acclaimed movies such as Pride …

Across the Universe Movie

The husband and I recently watched the movie “Across the Universe”. I had been looking forward to it for quite awhile since I am a big Beatles fan. We were not disapointed and I was pleased to see my husband get so into a musical.
Previews of the …

Gag (movie)

After being told several times about how great the movie “Gag” was by a friend who supposedly shares the same tastes in movies that I do, I could not wait to see it for myself. I remember that I even read a few great reviews on it from people …

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

I’m not normally a Monty Python fan. I’ve seen his flying circus show and thought it was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever watched. But, the movie “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” is one of the better comedies I’ve seen.
Basically, the movie is set during the time …

Hush Hush Sweet Charlotee (movie)

Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte is a movie about an old woman, Charlotte, who is played by Bette Davis. I love Bette Davis and certainly Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte is one of her best films. So Charlotte is living the remaining years of her life in an old mansion with …

Gladiator Movie (2000)

Gladiator is a movie that came out in 2000 that stars Russell Crowe as Maximus Decimus Meridius, a Roman soldier who is loyal to the emperor Marcus Aurelius. Marcus is murdered by his son Commodus who tries to kill Maximus but he survives and is captured by slavers …

The Mechanic (movie)

One of my favourite action films for this year so far was the movie “The Mechanic”. Surprisingly though it starred the action movie icon Jason Statham, and of course there was one of my favourite actors who I’ve been watching since he was on Disney, Ben Foster. I’m …

The Departed

Anybody that has seen this movie would probably review it the same way. It was fantastic and i don’t even know if that’s enough. It was the best movie i’ve seen in a long time. I am not normally a “Leo” fan but he was the best I’ve ever …

Drive (2011 film)

Okay, recently there has been a difference of opinion about this film boiling away between various groups of my friends, so I have decided to write a little about it and explain what I like about it, and why I think you should too (And perhaps some stuff about …

Pride and Prejudice

It is amazing how many times one movie can be remade. Pride and Prejudice happens to be one of those movies. In essence the movie is about different classes of people, pride of Elizabeth Bennett, and Mr. Darcy, also the prejudice between the classes of people and between …

Enough Movie

This movie features Jennifer Lopez in an action/suspense movie, it was really cool watching her in fighting scenes, I never thought she could do some moves as she’s such a diva, and in this movie Enough, it’s literally her breaking free from her abusive husband who beats her even …

The Blind Side-Movie

I anticipated that as soon as The Blind Side was available on DVD that it would be my goal to see it right away, and I did this past weekend. Just the previews and trailers alone made me cry, so I knew it would be a very heart-warming movie. …

Departures - (in Japanese)

I watched Departures the other day with my circle of friends and I was moved to tears. This movie storyline is so touching that it just makes you wonder what you would do and how you would react when someone in your circle of family or friends and relatives …

Fellowship of the Ring

I am reviewing the movie, The Fellowship of the Ring, which was released in 2001. This is the first of three movies Peter Jackson created after JRR Tolkien’s masterpiece. The story involves four hobbits, who quest out on an adventure to destroy Dark Lord Sauron’s ring, which …

Killjoy

When I let my daughter pick out the movie Killjoy for me and my wife (she’s four and picks movies based on the cover) I was a bit concerned it would be too scary for my pregnant spouse.
As it turns out, you can’t judge a DVD by its cover. …

This movie falls in the genre of Drama/Science Fiction/Thriller and stars Dustin Hoffman as Colonel Sam Daniels, Rene Russo as …

Man of the House movie

I absolutely adore Man of the House, which is a simple romantic comedy from 1995 which stars Chevy Chase, Farrah Fawcett, and Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who was probably the biggest child star of the 90’s, at least on television. In this film, Thomas plays Ben Archer, whose father …

Three Wishes DVD

Firmly locked in as one of my top ten Patrick Swayze movies, Three Wishes is a magical delight. It has a great cast with Swayze, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Joseph Mazzello, and Seth Mumy. With the recent death of Swayze, I wanted to watch one of his movies …

Kissing A Fool

Kissing A Fool with David Schwimmer, Jason Lee, and Bonnie Hunt.
This film theme had potential, but the horrible cast selection never gave it a chance. Schwimmer used his experience from Friends and tried to make it work as a major character in a motion picture. …

Pretty In Pink

I loved Molly Ringwald as the pitiful Andie in Pretty In Pink. Actually, I never watched the movie but loved the song by the Psychedelic Furs of the same name. There was a bit of buzz about Pretty In Pink, the movie, so I sat down for a viewing. …

Erin Brockovich movie

The movie Erin Brockovich is a very inspiring movie. She was a single mom of three that proved that she could make it. I was really impressed how she fought for the people in the town against a big company.
Even though the film is loosely based on a true …

You Don’t Mess with the Zohan

I always get overly entertained and would laugh like mad whenever I see performances by Adam Sandler. He has done it again this time and made me laugh like a crazy hyena in the newly title and newly released, You Don’t Mess with the Zohan.
Zohan is …

The Creeping Man

I am reviewing The Creeping Man, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced in 1985/1986 by Granada television. This episode introduces Science Fiction into Sherlock Holmes. A woman hires Holmes after being terrified by some sort of monster who …

Shallow Grave

Danny Boyle’s Shallow Grave is a high tension, psychological thriller that unfortunately, tends to be overshadowed by his much more acclaimed Trainspotting. This is unfortunate, because in my opinion Shallow Grave is almost as fantastic as that film, and deserves the attention of more people.
The film follows three housemates; Alex, …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 18

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 18 begins with Ling showing up at the hotel where Winry and Al are staying to let them know what’s happening while Ed heads off to the distant ruins of Xerxes, a city that mysteriously vanished in one night. He and Fu discuss the …

Dream House Movie (2011)

Needless to say that every person walking into the movie theater with me last night to see Dream House had real great expectations from it. And there was no reason not to have them, after all it seemed the movie had all the right ingredients. It had reliable and …

Perkins’ 14 movie

I watched this movie with a few expectations. But suprisingly, they were not met. Even though the movie was scary, I didn’t expect it to unfold as awkwardly as it did. The premise of the film is that a man whose parents were murdered ended up …

High School Musical movie

Disney Channel created a sensation with High School Musical in 2006. It has spawned two sequels, but I hadn’t even seen the original until last night. Of course, I’m not of current high school generation, so I’m not their target audience anyway.
That said, I chuckled at the …

Movie Memoir of a Geisha

Someone Like You - (starring Ashley Judd)

Ashley Judd stars as Jane in this date movie called Someone Like You. I love the performance of Hugh Jackman in here as well and he is basically someone that comes into Jane’s life after she has suffered a break-up and more.
He talks to her about life, …
