From 1956, Eve Arden takes the part that she played successfully for four years on television, high school English teacher Constance ‘Connie’ Brooks, and puts her on the big screen. What is confusing to some, though, is that instead of moving forward with the story, this movie actually …

The movie Hush starring Jessica Lange and Gwyneth Paltrow in the main roles is a good movie in the genre of drama with an underlying thriller element. The movie though is good has a predictable story and the pace of the movie is a bit slow. But nevertheless it …

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World is, in my opinion, the best sea faring movie ever made. That is a very bold statement but that shows how much I thought of Master and Commander. I was shocked by how accurate the history was in …

I was excited to see this movie because my husband and I are car fanatics and this is the only movie where the sequels were good, so we were expecting quite a major comeback especially since almost the lineup is complete except for Michelle Rodriguez as Letty which I …

The movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, directed by Chris Columbus, is a great movie! First of all, I am a huge Harry Potter fan who has read all of these books over and over and over, so while excited about the movies, I was also nervous about …

I absolutely adore movies that take place in the 50’s and 60’s. This movie was made in 1976, but takes place in 1953, so close enough. For some reason, those two decades fascinate me. And the music is so fantastic, I can’t get enough of it! Anyways, onto what …

I was one of those people who remembers being awed by the first Jurassic Park when I was a young child, so like some I was a little wary that another one was going to be released this year. However, after hearing different people swear that the movie was actually …

Doctor Dolittle is a delightful musical that has stood up through the test of time as an entertaining film. Oddly, when released in 1967, it didn’t do well. Musicals were sadly on their way out, and Doctor Dolittle was one of the victims. However, it’s become …

I don’t if anyone has seen the movie the An American Haunting but, if you have then either A. you were confused as I was or B. fell a sleep! I did both these options not because I wanted to only for the reason the movie seemed to just …

This movie is one of my favorites from the late young actor Heath Ledger. In fact, thinking about it now I’m not sure which one of his movies I didn’t like. Nevertheless one of the reasons why I liked this movie was because it appealed to the …

In all honestly, I believe this is the worst film for Catherine Zeta Jones and it is not entirley here fault! I decided to watch “No Reservations” after I liked its trailer, however, in the end, it failed to impress me. This film transmits a lot of sadness to …

I first thought this was just an ordinary feel-good movie, it features Drew Barrymore and her real-life boyfriend “The Jeepers Creepers Guy” Justin Long; it’s a story about two people meeting and falling in love but Drew here is just actually on a temporary “vacation” as she’s an intern …

I think The Skulls was a pretty good movie. The movie is about a secret society called The Skulls. I guess they are trying to portray and real life secret society called Skull and Bones. I think the movie was very well done. It shows both the good and dark …

Pride and Prejudice, 1995, the mini-series, is my favorite adaptation of the Jane Austen’s classic novel. The movie is so well-done, I could go on for hours describing its merits. The script, casting, acting, costumes, music - everything is just excellent. Colin Firth makes a perfect Mr. Darcy, serious …

Normally I enjoy most creature and scary animal movies, but I found this one a large disappointment. When I first heard about Cemetery Gates I was quite eager to see it as I had never seen a horror movie about a Tasmanian devil. So when I did see it, …

The Mask is a very funny movie. I really liked this movie. I think Jim Carey did a great job in this movie! He is a crazy party animal and he dancing. I really like how he plays with people and messing with them. I also really …

I’ve not read word one of the Harry Potter books, but I have generally found the movies to be a decent diversion.
At this point in the series, I am torn between Prisoner of Azkahban and Goblet of Fire as my favorite.
The latest, Order of the Phoenix, is in a …

When I first popped this DVD in, I was a little apprehensive about watching Robin Williams portray another homosexual character in a film. It wasn’t until I did a little research, and realized that this film was based on a novel, which in turn was based on …

Michael Douglas leads an impressive cast in Joel Schumacher’s “Falling Down”, an interesting tale told out over the course of one day, as an average man embarks on a rampage as he tries to simply “get home”.
It’s an interesting idea, and an incredibly simple one, but don’t let …

Scott Turow’s The Burden of Proof - Part 1 held some interest for me here and there, though it’s not something I would normally watch. Hector Elizondo stars as attorney Sandy Stern. Fresh off a victory, he goes home and finds his wife of many years dead, …

What you need to do while watching this movie is thank you lucky stars that you don’t know anyone like these people for if you do, you would be just as messed up in the head as they are. Then again, if you are just like these people in …

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.
The first thing …

‘Shaun of the Dead’ is right up my street, being a big fan of the spoof zombie film ‘Return of the Living Dead’ rather than any of the serious ones. I also love ‘American Werewolf in London’ (werewolves, not zombies) so I guess the horror/comedy combination works for …

I thought this movie was extremely entertaining. Rob Gordon, (expertly portrayed by John Cusack) is in the midst of a nasty split from his current girlfriend, Laura (played by Iben Hjejle, best of luck pronouncing that!). He is mad at the world and cannot understand why he cannot succeeed …

Synopsis: Two rival gangs, one made up of rich kids and the other made up of poor kids wage an all out war on each other in Oklahoma.
What I liked about this movie: I love movies that feature a well-known actor or actress before they were famous; mostly because …

Man oh man, was I disappointed with this movie. There aren’t too many films starring Rosario Dawson that I absolutely hate. But this one—an indie—about her “brutal” rape was just strange. The premise is that she’s an introverted college student who is lured into …

“Something New” is an interesting movie which explores a relationship between a black woman and a white man. What I really liked about this movie is the intelligent way by which it presented the story within a simple and straight forward context and, at the same time, ensuring to …

One of the most hyped movies of 2005, and starring a big cast with the “Rock” Dwayne Johnson and Karl urban, it was based on the very popular video game: Doom. This movie was too dark and dismal to be enjoyed. It started out well, with a good …

Similar to that of the movie Turner and Hooch, pairs the human element and the animal element into a movie to try to get a favorable response by the animal lover in most people. I have noticed that everything has its time in the spotlight and every genre is …

I am the world’s biggest Harry Potter fan (self-proclaimed). When I’d heard that J.K. Rowling was penning a screenplay for a prequel spin-off movie of the Harry Potter franchise, I was excited but unsure of how a movie without Harry Potter would turn out. However, David Yates, the director of …

1408 is a horror film by John Cusack and Samuel Jackson. Well most of the movie of course shows John Cusack as Mike Enslin’s struggle inside a hotel room, supposedly haunted the room 1408. Mike Enslin here is a paranormal “writer”, with his profession; he stays at …

I found it weird that someone was requesting a review on “Erin Brockovich” on here but I thought, “Hey I’ve seen that movie. I’ll tell him/her what I think.” Well, Julia Roberts is in fact very good in the role as is Albert Finney. It is a very well …

Making the highest grossing film of all times is James Cameron’s trademark ability in the moviemaking industry. Avatar indeed delivers visual greatness of unseen scope just like Titanic did in 1997. Truth remains that the visuals are not enough to make a movie Number 1 at the box office. …

This is a movie about a family business being handed down from generation to generation, in this case, it was handed down to Calvin, played by Ice Cube, but unlike his father before him, he did not want the hassle of running the business on the grounds that it …

Quantum of Solace, is a decent bond film, but nothing like the originals, and pales in comparison to the previous bond film. This movie does have action, however, it is a darker and more serious bond. The story is mediocre, and mostly involves Bond getting over what happened in …

Danny Boyle’s Shallow Grave is a high tension, psychological thriller that unfortunately, tends to be overshadowed by his much more acclaimed Trainspotting. This is unfortunate, because in my opinion Shallow Grave is almost as fantastic as that film, and deserves the attention of more people.
The film follows three housemates; Alex, …

Fools Rush In, directed by Andy Tennant is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for sensuality and brief language. The original release date was February 14, 1997 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Comedy/Drama/Romance and stars Matthew Perry as Alex Whitman …

With a movie title like this, you have a pretty good idea of what sort of movie you’re in for. This isn’t going to be a good movie in the traditional sense, although that doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t be an entertaining one.
Odd as it may sound, it …

Hell Boy with Ron Perlman and John Hurt.
This is another of those movies that brings life to a comic book personality, but it is more of an adventure than a satire. I did like this movie because it had a beginning, a middle, and …

In the early parts of this movie, I found it hard to stay tuned as the dialog was dull and boring and there was not much to hold on to that would keep me interested in watching this movie, but I waited patiently with hopes that it would pick …

War of male-male amusing. Yes, you can briefly describe the new film makers cult comedy “Legally Blonde.” The ugly truth is another charming, banal story of love that every woman dreams of. On the other hand, this hilarious comedy is not as ephemeral as the others. It can not …

My daughter loves the show Wow Wow Wubbzy so, when we were surfing our Netflix instant movies last night and came across Wubbzy’s big movie, she absolutely wanted to watch it.
It was OK but was kind of a disappointment too.
I’m not a huge fan of the show myself and …
