I do admit that some of the scenes here are heartwarming and that the …
Sister Helen movie
I just finished watching the DVD of the Film “Sister Helen.” I had never heard of the 2002 movie but saw it on the shelf at my local library. Since I could check it for free, I figured I had nothing to lose and checked it out.
I am very …
Zoolander 2016 Comedy Movie
At one point in my life the movie Zoolander became on of my favourite comedies. Therefore I was ecstatic to know that they were thinking of making a sequel. However, by the time I saw the trailer I could already tell that it wasn’t going to be as hilarious as …

Alice in Wonderland Movie
Watched Alice in Wonderland with hubby last night. To be honest, I can’t remember the original movie and what the whole story was all about. I just remember the characters and that it was one of the stories often told to us when we were kids. This movie I’ve …
The First Wives Club Movie
The First Wives Club is one of my favorite comedies of all time. The first time I saw the movie I was young, so I did not grasp the significance of both cast and the plot as a whole, but now that I am older it is one of the …

Little Shop Of Horrors
‘Feed me, Seymour!’ cries the hungry, man eating plant in Little Shop of Horrors. I love that line! That line is one of my favorite lines from a movie. Now I am not talking about the Little Shop of Horrors version made in the 1980s, I am talking about …
2012 film
2012 was heavily advertised around where I lived, so I was pretty excited when it came out and I immediately rushed to watch it. After all, a doomsday film that sounded pretty promising (Mayans were the ones to predict this doomsday, which I had assumed would mean that the …
An Erotic Werewolf in London Movie DVD
I didn’t like this movie since I believed it was more of a female exploitation movie, which I wasn’t interested in. This was because it contained a lot of female nudity scenes as well as lesbian scenes which made it more resemble soft core pornography than a horror movie. …
Pledge This movie
I’m far from being a Paris Hilton fan. She’s an OK actress but isn’t someone that is going to have me going out of my way to rent a movie just to watch her. But, of all the movies we watched this past weekend, her film “Pledge This” surprisingly …
Burn after Reading
Brad Pitt, George Clooney and other good actors play in this movie. So you would think it is a good movie, right? Well it’s not in my opinion. Other than a couple funny moments with Brad Pitt the movie sucked. As soon as I thought it was getting to …
Big Fat Liar
Big Fat Liar is an unpretentious teen-oriented flick about a kid who lies all the time and then gets to taste his own medicine when a Hollywood producer steals his idea. Jason has lied so much in his life that no one takes him seriously any longer, so when …
The Wedding Crashers

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, movie
I was really blown away by how good the first movie was. It was very funny, sweet, and had a lot of heart. I was looking forward to seeing what the sequel would deliver. While this movie gets praised, I’m sorry to say that I was …
Redbox DVD Rental
Since I am kind of thrifty, I am always looking to find ways to save money. We like to watch a lot of movies around our house, and we have found the Redbox DVD rentals quite handy. They only cost a dollar a night to rent a movie, and …
Alive movie
A film which I think has had a very big impact on my life is the film “Alive” which I watched in the early 2000s even though it was released in nineteen ninety three.Before I watched the movie, my mother had told me about the actual situation several times …
The Night Listener
I’m not really sure why but whenever Robin Williams is in a drama, I just can’t take him seriously. The Night Listener was the perfect example of this.
I made a serious effort to watch this movie last night and, though I tried, I just couldn�t get into it. It …

The Land Before Time: The Great Day of the Flyers
My daughter has never watched any of the Land Before Time movies before. So, when she picked out one of the newer movies in the series “The Great Day of the Flyers,” I was skeptical about her watching even a few minutes of it.
However, I found she actually enjoyed …
Ninjas Vs. Vampires, movie (2011)
Endlight Entertainment’s Ninjas Vs. Vampires is not a movie that is meant to be watched alone. Don’t take that statement as this is the scariest movie ever made, although it does have a few jumps and some decent blood-spilling. This is a movie where you have some …

What would you do if you were a film director and wanted to find a good actor to interpret a street vendor? You choose an ex-black market salesman and ask him to act in a movie. If this is not the answer you would have said, at least this …
Batteries Not Included
If you guys were disappointed with the recent Disney Movie Wall-E, and still want a good movie with robot type creatures, Batteries Not Included is for you ! It’s not an animated flick, but it’s so good. It’s a movie from 1987, where they had to rely on acting …
The Ballad of Andy Crocker movie
I remember well The Ballad of Andy Crocker from 1969, and the reason for that was the star, Lee Majors who played Andy Crocker. Crocker gets a medal as a heroic soldier in Vietnam and then heads home, uncertain of what he’ll find.
Early on, Crocker meets Karen (Jill …

The A-Team: Movie
The A-Team is a fun, action-packed remake of the TV series that I think will be of interest to a lot more people than it is given credit for.

Mirrors 2008 DVD
I bought this movie’s DVD. The title of the movie seemed like a very justified name fr a horror flick. I was overall pleased with his film.
The cast of the film were not very famous persons. However the concept of the film was very good. The movie open with …
The Punisher 1989 Version
I’m glad I saw the newer Punisher, with John Travolta as the villain, before I saw the original Punisher, starring Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle. It started out with promise, with Castle already presumed dead, and Punisher on his vigilante jaunt for five years now. Then it quickly …
Never Back Down
With the current and ever-rising mainstream popularity of mixed martial arts, I am not at all surprised to see movies using MMA in their plot lines.
I only wish they would do a better job of it! Maybe use better actors instead of relying on “pretty”.
Never Back Down focuses …
Futurama Movie #1 - Bender’s Big Score
After Matt Groening and David X Cohen’s television comedy series Futurama was canceled at the end of Season Four, it ended on a potentially upbeat note, but it was open-ended enough to leave fans wondering if there would be any future installments in the series. Not long after, …
Robocop Movie
It rained Saturday so we were pretty much stuck inside the house all day. I ended up flipping channels and came across a movie I haven’t seen in a long while; Robocop.
I didn’t remember a whole lot about the movie but figured it was one that was good when …
Twilight Movie
I rented the Twilight movie finally yesterday to watch it and see what all the hype was about. I have read the book so I knew the plot line already. I was mostly watching to see how they took the story to the big screen.

House of Fears
OK, I have to admit that House of Fears makes me go all creepy. However, the movie is kind of dark and it’s quite irritating to say. I wish that most haunted movies would be clearer and not having a dark effect.
I am not really sure …
Man with the Twisted Lip

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 …
Movie The Strangers
This 2008 release is a very disappointing movie. I’ve seen the trailer a few times so I thought it would be a good horror movie. However, I found the introduction long and dragging. There were several “quiet” scenes where the characters were just being sad and depressed and not …

True Grit Movie
The age of Westerns has certainly passed. I cannot remember the last time a movie qualifying for that category has been widely, successfully released. And yet, apparently there is still an audience for them as can be seen with the release of True Grit, a Coen Brothers remake of …
Dinosaur Island Movie
Last night we had an early family movie night and ended up watching the film Dinosaur Island. At the time, I figured it was a movie our daughter would enjoy and was just willing to suffer through it for her sake. But, it turned out to be a pretty …
American Vampire
I picked up the movie American Vampire in the $1 section at Walmart and now know why, until I bought it, I had never heard of it.
The movie reminded me a lot of the bad vampire movies that were frequent throughout the 80s. It had it all, teenagers being …
