Charlie Chaplin plays an honest man who immigrates to America. As soon as he reaches the new country he runs in to trouble immedietly.
I think this is one of Chaplin’s most underrated short films. The story has a nearly perfect balance between hysterical physical humour and social criticism, and …

One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …

Tina Fey and Steve Carrell team up together in a very funny, smart movie. Date Night is a great comedy film, well executed with lots of clever lines and comical scenes. There were a few surprises, too, as the movie wound in a different direction that I …

Easter Parade is a very nice holiday musical with a tip top cast that includes Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, and Peter Lawford. It’s full of good songs, including the title number which is, naturally, the centerpiece of the motion picture.
Oddly, though, I’m not a huge fan of Easter …

When it comes to Pixar, this film is one of my least favorites. It’s a cute movie with a good heart and message, but it just doesn’t make me interested in watching it more than once or twice a year. Not even my son has showed interest and he …

Starring Harrison Ford as a doctor framed for the murder of his wife, and Tommy Lee Jones as the Federal Marshall with a die-hard devotion in catching his man. It is intense and action packed with unexpected twists and turns. It’s not really a thinking man’s movie as we …

The movie “The Jane Austen Book Club” was one that I was drawn to immediately upon reading the title. As a huge Jane Austen fan myself I was really excited about the idea of a movie that was centered on her books and the effects the books have on …

I read about “Bubble” on some of the movie forums that I frequent. It seemed to be one of those love it or hate it movies. It also seemed like a movie that didn’t have a huge budget, almost no special effects and an improv-style script. Against my better …

Disney Studios gifted audiences with That Darn Cat in 1965. The family film starred Hayley Mills and Dean Jones, and, of course, DC the Cat. DC is a Siamese cat who ends up being the only one who knows where some thieves and kidnappers are.
Mills plays the …

I am a big fan of small movies, and I just watched another great one on DVD, called “Where God Left his Shoes.” The actors in it are relative unknowns, at least to me, and this movie received very little attention. The plot is quite a heart-wrenching story of …

Honestly, I just find Nathaniel Parker cute that’s why I finished this movie and wishing I had been Marsha Thomason just to snatch that role. Yes, this is a funny movie but I was wondering why Walt Disney Pictures, or anyone else who has been part of making …

The comedic master mind that is Mel Brooks takes center stage as he pokes fun yet again at another movie. This time he takes on Dracula and tosses and turns this once serious and feared character into that of an onscreen laughing stock. Mel is one of the only …

I can not portray how thoroughly disappointed I was in this movie. I very rarely get my husband to watch anything that is Oscar nominated. After watching this movie it will be a very long time before I get him to watch anything like that again. The plot …

Poor Alan Moore. He created some of the most visionary graphic novels to ever see print and the film adaptations almost always disappoint. LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN went from adventure satire to an X-MEN clone. V FOR VENDETTA went from chilling vision of the future to pushing political themes …

Death Proof is the first “episode” of the recent grindhouse. Now personally i didn’t like this movie at all, it was very long, it took forever to get to the action, there are litterarily like 50 minutes of talking which lead to no real action. The movie itself is …

I watched the movie “Faeries” a very long time ago in about the year 2001 when I had just gotten cable television. I think the first time I saw the movie too was one Saturday on the cable television channel SciFi. I thought it was different from many …

Wow, that was a major mistake.
I hadn’t seen the movie Norbit in a long time and couldn’t remember if I liked it or hated it so I ended up watching it again last night. Again, a big freaking mistake. I would have been better off watching the home shopping …

Out of all three Transformers films, this film was the best one out of all of them. And I’m not talking about the human performance. More than anything, it was so good to see that Optimus Prime had a much larger role in Transformers Dark of the Moon, than …

Take two miniskirted super models and make them the focal point of your movie and you cannot fail. Add in a proven walking dead backdrop with non stop action and you get a box office winner. …

House of Wax with Chad Michael Murray, Elisha Cuthbert, and Paris Hilton.
I have to be honest. I watched this movie in the hopes of seeing nude scenes with Paris Hilton. Well, it did not happen and the rest of the movie had to stand …

I had the opportunity to see this movie for the first time a few years ago while in college. My teacher for my education classes had a view of herself as a similiar teacher and we watched this movie one day when she forgot her lesson books.

We went to the movies last night and saw an adorable film called the 27 Dresses.
This one starred Katherine Heigl and James Marsden, I believe these two fine young actors are going to be the next Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan duo. They mesh that well together.
Anyway …

“Big Fish” is a very unique film starring Ewan McGregor. When I say unique, I really mean unique. It is a very hard film to describe without spoiling the plot.
Pros: Tim Burton certainly used all of his creative juices in directing this film. The film includes …

Autopsy is a film from After Dark, aka the famous After Dark Horrorfest films that release “8 films to die for” every year for the last few years. I generally find their films to be of better quality than the usual“B”horror movies that are available. This one …

I wasn’t able to see “All the King’s Men” with Sean Penn when it went through the theatres, but look forward to seeing in on DVD. I recently watched the 1949 version with Broderick Crawford and loved it. It’s in black and white, a medium that is used far …

When Kung Fu Panda first came out a few years ago, I was surprised at how funny it actually was. I would compare the first movie to the Nickelodeon series SpongeBob Squarepants. This is because in both Kung Fu Panda and SpongeBob, there are jokes intended for adults, where …

Waitress is a very good movie, and when I watched it, I enjoyed it. This is a movie about drama, and about people. How different characters in this life makes an impact on a pie-maker, acted by Keri Russell. She played the character Jenna.
Jenna wanted to …

Something about the thought of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence playing cops makes me want to laugh, and watching the 2003 movie Bad Boys 2 I do plenty of that. Whether it’s the two characters demonstrating their “tandem dance routine”, complaining about the pool in Lawrence’s character’s back yard, …

Ghost World was one of those films that I was always hearing good things about but never really took the chance to watch. I never read the graphic novel either, so I couldn’t have given you the first clue about what what it was supposed to be like, although I …

For those of you that grew up with the magic of Pixar, you most definitely know of the many adventures of toy legends, Woody the cowboy and Buzz Lightyear, the space ranger and all their companions. I speak of the first ever Pixar computer generated animation film, Toy Story.

I rented this movie mostly because of Sandra Bullock, she is always good. She was good here as well, although the character she plays, a homicide detective Cassie Mayweather, is somewhat unlikable. Cassie’s personality appears to have been permanently damaged by a brutal attack in the past, one that …

Uwe Boll is not the best choice when it comes to video game movie adaptations. His track record is bad (I thought Postal was good) but some how he still gets the rights to these video games and makes them into films. Far Cry is the video game based …

A low budget movie turns out sophisticatedly neat. Starring Debra Messing (of Will and Grace) as Katherine, a New Yorker, looking for a for-hire-date that she could bring to London for her half sister’s wedding.
A light kind of story full of cinematographically neat shots at perfectly chosen places at …

This movie is such an odd combination of movies. I really love it and I adore 70’s horror films but it is so hard to pin down.
The plot of the movie is a teenager starts dating her best friend’s boyfriend’s friend. They start falling in love and she …

I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …
