Frankenstein, 1931 movie
Loosely based on the novel by Mary Shelley, this classic horror movie is perhaps one of the better known adaptations. Boris Karloff’s make up and performance of the monster make it quite unforgettable, despite the movie’s liberal handling of the book. Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) is obsessed with finding …
Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
I have noticed that many people who have reviewed Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen in papers and on the internet have not given it the greatest reviews. I went and saw the movie for myself and I do not completely agree with the reviews. Yes, the movie is …

Hide and Seek (2005 movie)
I don’t really get the gist of this movie, it’s one of those films that just doesn’t make any sense. From the beginning, things just didn’t add-up, people were dying…claimed to be killed by the little girl’s imaginary friend. One would not begin the believe that the killer was …

Film “The Attic”
I just watched the attic last night on Hulu. It was an ok film for something made at the low budget level. I’m not sure but I would guess this was either a straight to video or a tv release based on the production values. I …
The Sixth Sense movie
Even though I watched the movie “The Sixth Sense” when I was about eleven or twelve years old, I can still remember it as though it were just yesterday, since at the time is scared me a little and I thought the twist in the plot was unusual. It …

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 movie
While I thought the first Cheaper by the Dozen movie was lame, I did not think that a sequel to it could possibly be just plain silly and a waste of money that could have been put to proper use elsewhere. This time the movie was not just lame, …
Movie: The Ruins
When I think of The Ruins the words for decription that come to mind is unexpected surprise. Although I’m a huge fan of horror films, creature features are not the ones I enjoy the most. I don’t even remember why I put this on my netflix queue …
Batman Begins Movie

Mr Bean’s Holiday
“Mr. Bean’s Holiday” was the latest Mr. Bean movie to be released in theaters. However, at the time it was released, I was unable to go and see it with any of my friends because I didn’t have much time or money. I did not even get to watch …
Movie Skinwalkers
Skinwalkers is quite possibly the oddest movie I’ve ever seen, and given the amount of strange and unsettling horror movies I’ve seen over the course of my life, that’s saying a lot. I first saw the movie advertised on another straight to video horror movie release, and the ad …
Frequency
The movie “Frequency” which starred Dennis Quaid and James Caviezel as father and son tandem is a entertainingly family oriented film. It would make you realize the importance of having a father in the home. How tormenting it would be to a child who grows up without the …
The Man in the Iron Mask
I infer the story behind the man in the iron mask is so interesting that it made it to the big screen multiple times. This one version I watched at least made me think so. I had a good time watching this version directed by Randall Wallace; …

The Call (Movie 2013)
As a fan of Halle Berry, I tend to tune into most everything she is featured in. When seeing the preview trailers for The Call, I was excited and dead set on seeing it. The previews were intriguing, but in a simple kind of way.
The Call isn’t meant …
Bed time Stories - Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler is one of my favorite actors. I love almost all the movies he made. He can make me laugh without going overacting or overboard. He acts so naturally. And he acts so well.
Bedtime Stories is the latest movie I watched and …
Flesh for Frankenstein movie
This is supposed to be a more artsy depiction of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Paul Morrissey, perhaps the weirdest filmmaker ever, directed this. It stars Udo Kier as dr Frankenstein, the rest are mostly amateurs. I don’t know if I would call this film artsy, but it certainly was …
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
“Pirates” is simply one of those movies that will not be off the current younger generation’s top films list. For me (and many others, I suspect), it was gateway into now-legendary actor Johnny Depp’s career. The guy’s performance in this movie, while not a magnum opus, no doubt reveals …
7G Rainbow Colony
It’s a fantastic romantic film. This film was released in 2005. A.M.Ratnam produced the movie for his own Sri Surya Movies production. Selvaraghavan directed this movie. The film casts are Ravikrishna, the younger son of the producer A.M.Ratnam. Sonia Agarwal, plays the role of …

The Postman with Kevin Costner and Will Patton.
What a great story told by a great actor Imagine that the world’s governments crumbled and all communication non existent between the surviving clans. This description does not generate the level of interest that this exciting …
White Noise 2 (PG-13, 2007) movie
First of all, let me say that White Noise, the first one—was total garbage. I really tried to get into it. But when the first images /sounds were displayed, I knew the film was going to be corny. They cast Michael Keaton in the lead. …
The Death And Life Of Bobby Z
I love Paul Walker very much. And in this movie, The Death And Life Of Bobby Z that he acted which I’ve watched like 2 times, the storyline ain’t that bad.
At first, I was quite skeptical into thinking that it is a rather cheesy gangster movie but …

Shutter Island Movie (2010)
Who would have thought that Leonardo DiCaprio would be one of the greatest actors that would star in a lot of great blockbuster movies? One of these movies would be Shutter Island (2010). This was one of the best movies that I have seen DiCaprio in next to Inception. …
Supreme Sanction
Supreme Sanction with Kristy Swanson, Michael Madsen, Ron Perlman, and Donald Faison.
This is one horrible movie. I’m sorry but Kristy Swanson cannot follow up her Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie to carry her own poorly scripted action movie. Madsen, as a villain, is too …

Director Ronald Emmerich has given us some of the most adored Hollywood blockbusters such as Independence Day and Godzilla but his new venture “The Day After Tomorrow” is not up to par with his earlier work. In this flick he uses the most sought after object of the present …

“Ramona and Beezus” (2010 Film)
If anyone is familiar with the “Ramona Quimby” novels by Beverly Cleary and feared that the film relating to the novels might not do the book justice, then you have nothing to worry about. Yes, this 2010 film called “Ramona and Beezus” is based from the books, but no …
The Grudge 2

Friended to Death, movie (2014)
Watching a dreary film like Friended to Death has been a total waste of my time and energy. Directed by Sarah Smick and starring Ryan Hansen, James Immekus, Zach McGowan and others, this film has failed to keep me glued to it. Perhaps the director had aimed at shooting …
The Garden movie
As far as documentaries go, The Garden, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Film, has everything that I love in this genre of film. It is a film that depicts the battle for a 14 acre piece of land in south central Los Angeles following …
Tropic Thunder
Ben Stiller’s new film Tropic Thunder has been getting a lot of heat from African Americans for Robert Downey Jr’s portrayal of a man in what is essentially blackface and from disabilities advocates, unhappy with the way the film discusses the mentally disabled by using the word “retard”. Stiller …
The Money Pit
Movies like this make me shake my head and wonder, ‘What were they thinking??’ I am not alone in this, as I see, in regards to this particular movie: I saw ‘The Money Pit’ listed among 10 worse movies done in the 1980s in one online article. I had …
