The Postman movie
The Postman has got to rank as one of the better movies I have watched in the 90’s. I have read a lot of articles stating negative reviews but I guess we’re all entitled to our own opinion so I still suggest you give this movie a shot. It …

Perry Mason: The Case of the Heartbroken Bride movie
For me, the bride in Perry Mason: The Case of the Heartbroken Bride was too pouty and snooty, even though we know she’s innocent because Perry is defending her. I just didn’t like her look. In fact, the entire opening bit at the wedding of Perry’s old …

Boogie-Woogie Dream movie short
The magic of Boogie-Woogie Dream, a 1944 movie short, comes in the form of newcomer, Lena Horne. She is the centerpiece and she’s worthy of the honor, too.

Reign Over Me
When I saw the previews for this movie I automatically wanted to see it. I was a little skeptical as to how good it would have been with Adam Sandler playing a serious role, I have only ever seen him do comedy roles. He did an amazing job though. …

Quartet (film)
The film is set in an eloquent retirement facility in Britain. The facility is a niche facility since it caters to musicians who are retired. That said the theme of the film evolves around two sub-themes of sorts. One sub-theme is about prior Operatic performers who …

Disney takes you underwater for an epic animated …
Bloodsport (movie )
While I like some action movies, I generally do not like those that include the actors Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Segal since I have noticed that while these movies are usually jam packed with action scenes, they also usually have the same cliché characters and these action movies …

Zoolander
Watch Zoolander and you will go crazy laughing like mad. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson star in this and this is such a funny movie if I’m not mistaken during the early 2000-2003, not sure which period.
However, do not take too serious note of the political issues …
Andaz Apna Apna (AAA)

Shakespeare in Love,1998 movie

Sombrero movie
It’s been years since I’ve seen Sombrero, and unfortunately, I just found it by accident just before it started so didn’t have time to put on a videotape or I would have. The reason being is that it introduces Rick Jason, who is an actor I always loved …
John Fawcett’s 2001 horror / comedy film “Ginger Snaps”
I don’t like horror movies as a rule. “The Sixth Sense” gave me nightmares for weeks, and I can’t even watch trailers of gore films, unless I’m trying to get unhealthy blood adrenalin levels. Therefore, it took my friend a lot of effort to emotionally blackmail me into watch …
The Happening
I just watched the happening last night from a download. The movie started in Central Park New York. From the very beginning of the movie, it freaked me out. I could not look when the girl suddenly took the chopsticks out of her hair then stick it in to …

The Wild
I normally like Disney’s animated films. That’s why, when I saw their movie “The Wild” this past weekend, I was extremely disappointed.
Overall, the movie wasn’t bad. But, the plot did seem to be a bit re-hashed. It was almost like Disney combined elements of the movies Lion King and …
The Age of Adaline (2015) - Movie
I found out about The Age of Adaline while scrolling through an article cataloguing new 2015 movie releases. I never saw the trailer but I decided to see this movie because I recognized the actress on the movie poster. I know Blake Lively from the TV show Gossip Girl and …
My Big Fat Greek Wedding

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 …
DNAngel Episode 5 (Anime)
DNAngel Episode 5 has Risa and Riku switching places with each other after Risa fails in cooking class. Daisuke has to peal cabbages too and tries to get out of it to get to his next thieving assignment.

Rachel Getting Married (2008 film)
The 2008 movie “Rachel Getting Married” might have had a great cast who fell into the roles of their characters phenomenally, and maybe they have done that too well. Because Anne Hathaway who plays Rachel’s sister, Kim, in the movie, really got on my nerves and I think that …

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 …
Batman & Robin movie
Quite honestly, I have yet to see any of the Batman movies, though I’ve seen lots of clips and stories on filming them throughout the years. I remember back in the era when this Batman & Robin movie was filmed. There were a number of media segments …
The Hound of the Baskervilles movie (2000)
