With two small girls in the house, it is inevitable that our movie selections revolve around animations that the kids can watch. Moana, the Disney animation movie about a little girl that gets “chosen” by the ocean to save their tribe is such a stunning movie that I don’t even …

I watched Beethoven the movie last night. This movie is pretty flawed but a decent time overall, if you are into dog comedies. It stars Charles Grodin and is produced by comedy legend Ivan Reitman. It came out in 1991.
I think overall it is most notable for a few …

In 1958, Clark Gable and Doris Day starred in Teacher’s Pet. Now, I adore Teacher’s Pet, and Gable and Day are wonderful, together and individually. Still, it’s another time when I go, ‘Huh?’ at the casting. Gable was 20 years Day’s senior. In a way, it …

The Godfather is my favorite movie of all time. I love everything about it. Al Pacino, James Cann, Robert Duvall, and Marlon Brando play their roles with tremendous ability. They make their roles come alive and make the mafia family seem real. I especially like Maroln Brando as Vito …

I had read a few reviews of the movie “Che” starring Benicio Del Toro, and most of them complained that it was too long at over 4 hours, and that it dragged on and was not interesting enough to hold the viewers’ attention for that long. The other night I …

Suicide Club (or Circle, in practically everywhere besides the US) is a Japanese psychological horror movie that deals with subliminal messages, people’s outward appearances and personalities, and the idea of cults. It seems to have a popular, although small, fandom. I first watched it at a friend’s house, and …

I am reviewing the movie, Gridiron Gang, staring Dwane Johnson “The Rock.” This movie is about a probation’s officer who is willing to go up against all odds in order to save lives. It seems that each time a kid rolls in, faces time, and rolls out, …

Tokyo Majin Episode 2 shows how Tatsuma Hiyuu transferred to Magami High School and met Kyouichi Horaiji, Aoi Misato, Komaki Sakurai and Yuuya Daigo. It’s basically an origins episode that shows how they were first attacked by the undead.
Because of the very confusing first episode, I didn’t know …

A movie I just finished watching about three minutes before I decided to write a review about, Death Race was quite a well executed watch.

The vietnamese director Tran Anh Hung is in my opinion one of the most interesting filmmakers the last 10-15 years, which he showed with brilliance in The Scent of Green Papaya and Cyclo. The Vertical Ray of the Sun was the most recent film he made and, similar to …

When the film Aliens in the Attic first came out, my wife and I gave serious consideration to seeing it in the theater with our oldest daughter. We decided against this because we figured it wouldn’t be as good as the previews.
We finally did watch the movie this past …

I should start by saying that I did not enjoy this book. Perhaps my expectations were too high going in and the only outcome was my disappointment. I’m not sure but the author does make a bold assertion when he suggests in the title that his book …

Not nearly as bad as it looks from the trailers.
I avoided watching this for ages because the trailers made it look awful - cheesy, bloated, frankly as interesting and featureful as the Outback. It had one of those trailers which seems to give away the plot of the entire …

If you want a good musical, this is the movie for you ! It’s another generation’s High School Musical and it is fantastic ! Who doesn’t love Olivia Newton John and John Travolta? Grease Lightening? I mean, come on. This is a movie that you can watch over and …

My daughter loves Dr. Seuss books so I recently picked her up a movie based off of one of them “The Lorax.” And, I have to say, despite the fact it was obviously filmed years ago, it was still quite a good movie.
If you haven’t seen the movie or …

I watched Taken for how many times now and this movie never fails to give me excitement. It stars Liam Neeson as the father of a girl that was kidnapped in Paris by Albanians. The story not only pure action and little drama, it also gives lesson for other …

A Dog’s Breakfast surprised me a great deal because while it was as warped as I suspected it was, but it was also somewhat enjoyable. I didn’t like some of the more graphic parts and the innuendo that resulted, but as a whole, it was oddly enjoyable.
I’m not …

The second part of Deadly Matrimony focuses on how Brian Dennehy’s detective sergeant character of John Reed sets out to find out who killed Dianne Masters, and once he knows, to take care of cleaning up the corrupted Chicago police department.
Dennehy is a commanding presence on film. While …

I think American Beauty is a very strong movie with lots of issues involved that are perhaps much closer to home than we can ever imagine. When I first watched this movie on the cinema, I thought that it is something like a Desperate Housewives setting TV drama with …

This would sound funny but my husband and I have watched this movie so many times now that we both lost count and we are not closing the possibility of watching this movie in the future. It is also our practice watching this movie everytime we use our …

In my opinion, the movie Cleopatra was outstanding and exciting till the last moment. The movie was broke into joyful sections, melancholy sections, and humorous sections. One of the humorous sections was when the Egyptian fleet was set on fire by Caesar; Cleopatra instantly went to meet him. Caesar …

Premonition is a movie I couldn’t wait for it to come out on DVD. I love Sandra Bullock and figured that this movie would be a great one to watch. I was wrong. Very wrong. This is a movie that is almost painful to watch. It is not written …

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a romantic comedy with an almost universal appeal, simply because it is, at it’s heart, a great movie. The plot isn’t meant to appeal solely to women, or even towards men, as one would expect from a Judd Apatow Production. Instead, it is a movie …

The Incredibles is one of my favorite animated movies. I’ve seen it quite a number of times already but I never get tired of watching it over and over again. I’m pretty sure that alot of people would relate to the wonderful characters. Shy and insecure teenage girls would …

While watching the movie 2001 Manics, I couldn’t help but think that it was the ultimate B-movie which I was usually so turned off of watching. It had lots of sex, gore, bad acting and young people which is what most B-movies usually has, not to mention the lack …

I watched the movie “Knowing” online a little after it was released in theatres since at the time I had no money to see it. Sometimes when I watch movies online, the movie does not appear to be half as good as it seems when I watch it on …

I am reviewing the murder mystery movie, Strangler’s Wood, starring John Nettles and Daniel Casey. This film was made in 1999, was produced by Brian True-May and Betty Willingale, and is based on the novels written by author Caroline Graham.
Strangler’s Wood is a movie that revolves around the mysterious …

Okay, I admit it I only watched this movie because of Robert Pattinson and their beautiful movie poster that hung at the cinema every time I pass by. Having said that, I find the movie a bit dragging and the emotions they portray are blown out of proportion. …

A hypnotic film with Viggo Mortensen about him coming home after a long time to take care of his younger brother. The Reflecting Skin is the closest thing to cinematic poetry I have ever seen. The boundaries between dream and reality is completely erased here and the only thing …

This is a very underrated movie. Most zombie movies are all about gore and blood. This movie isn’t just a typical zombie movie though. In this movie, the zombies get smart and start to adapt. They begin living as if they were still alive, establishing communities of the living …

Though I tend to love a Ron Howard movie because it’s most always well crafted and told with respect as well as flair, I hadn’t yet watched Far and Away until a friend sent it to me a while ago. I actually watched it in pieces; couldn’t quite …

“The Woman in White,” 1982, mini-series is perhaps one of the best adaptations of the Wilkie Collins mystery novel. Mini-series, in my opinion, is the best way to film Victorian classics: you don’t have to cram a huge book in a one and a half hour movie and therefore …
