Duplex movie
I must admit that “Duplex” is definitely one of my Ben Stiller’s favourite movies, even though it was a cinema flop. I believe that Ben Stiller and the actress, Drew Barrymore make a great on screen couple and you simply cannot watch this movie and end up not having …

AT&T Wireless

Halloween 2 movie

Get Shorty

Limitless (movie)

Happenstance (R, 2000) movie
When I saw Amelie, I was really really excited to know that there would be another film featuring Audrey Tautou, a brilliant impish actress. Happenstance is very similar to Amelie in that it deals with coincidence, and the complications/ ramifications following. The entire story in Happenstance centers …
Notting Hill,1999 movie
Notting Hill tells a rather unlikely yet pleasant love story of Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) a movie star and William Thacker (Hugh Grant), a modest guy who works in a bookstore. I enjoyed this movie. Grand is very likeable as the good-hearted, honest William. Julia Roberts does a good …
Taking The Lead
Take The Lead with Antonio Banderas, Rob Brown, and Alfre Woodard.
Right from the beginning, I began to mentally attack this movie as being hard to believe even though it is based on a true story. Banderas played a French dance teacher, yet his Spanish accent …

The Green Hornet, Blu-ray Superhero action comedy film
Who is to blame for the Green Hornet movie? Can we blame director Michel Gondry for coming back to the project after he rejected it back in 1997? Or can we blame all of the countless delays that start with writers bailing out to simple crew members? Maybe we …

The Way We Were movie
The Way We Were is a classic motion picture. It’s a love story with a questionable ending. It’s romantic and tragic. It’s wonderful. The movie stars Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford, and boy do they sizzle together. It’s not an easy relationship, but the …

Romancing the Stone movie (1984)
(Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito)
Hollywood movies simply don’t get any better than this! Romancing the Stone is pure escapist entertainment: high adventure, lowly villains, handsome heroes, gorgeous—”and brainy—”women in distress, occasionally clumsy yet resourceful villainous sidekicks, incredible locations and a fun and sumptuous soundtrack.
Turner plays …
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 …
Duplex, movie
Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore do a wonderful job in pulling off this bright comedy about a couple trying to survive their first home owner’s experience. I thought this film was playful, funny and even a bit telling in how we all sometimes fall for things that are too good …
Disturbia
I just love Shia La Beouf’s movies. This is another one of them. It was released in 2007, under the horror category. However this was more of a thriller than horror.
The story is about a boy Kale(Shia La Beouf) who is under house arrest for punching his Spanish teacher …

Dirty Harry (1971)
In my estimation, no review can even come close to doing this movie justice, this has got to be the greatest crime movie ever created then and still today, it is not close to finding its equal. Every movie today is filled with so much over the top green …
The Count of Monte Cristo Movie
This is one of the best classic medieval stories I have ever watched! Jim Caviezel is the main actor here playing the part of poor Edmond Dantes, who’s just a commoner intent on marrying his long-time lady love Mercedes Iguanada, portrayed by Dagmara Dominczyk in real life. Edmond’s “best …

Dr. Dolittle
Dr. Dolittle is a family comedy movie starring Eddie Murphy in the title role. It is a very nice movie and though it appears as kid’s movie, it has universal appeal to it. Eddie Murphy did a great job as Dr. Dolittle. The story starts with a scene from …
X-Men Movie
X-Men was an excellent movie if you went with no expectations and had never seen the cartoon or read the comic. However, they changed a lot from both comic and show in the movie and after seeing the movie for the first time, I was infuriated at how they …

Wolf Movie
I love werewolf movies. But, until last night, I had never seen the 1994 film, Wolf.
Well, I finally got a chance to see it and found it really wasn’t worth the wait.
Jack Nicholson is pretty decent as a business man who gets bit by a wolf and starts turning …
3:10 to Yuma (Original-1957)
With the removie of due out on video any day I thought I’d prepare by watching and reviewing the original movie done fifty years ago. “3:10 to Yuma” was a Columbia Picture, shot in black and white, something I really like, and lasting 91 minutes, also something I like. …
Bride Wars movie
‘Bride Wars’ is the movie where the main stars, Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson dream to marry at the Plaza Hotel. Unfortunately I expected much more from this movie. I feel that the script lacked a certain amount of magic and there weren’t enough funny moments as expected.

Movie Stop Halethorpe Maryland
We have a new shopping center that’s still in the process of being built and it’s practically in our back yard! It’s called Lansdowne Station. It’s close enough to be very convenient, but far enough away that we don’t have the extra traffic and headaches. It’s great! One store …

Where The Wild Things Are: The Movie
I think it’s fair to say that mostly everyone has read, heard of, or watched the cartoon of “Where the Wild Things Are”. Also, it hit headlines to a somewhat large scale as the 2009 movie was released, giving a new spin to the beloved children’s book. And while …

Looking through my Netflix for something to watch on a rainy Saturday night, I came across a movie that seemed somewhat strange but also interesting and quirky. It was titled Lo, probably a film that most people have never heard of, it is a story of a young man …
Dus (movie), 2005
I watched Dus on TV. It released last year in 2005. This film is directed by Anubhav Sinha. The movie is an action film. The action sequences are good but what is missing in this film is a proper story line. The story line is really stupid. The director, …
