Another Cinderellla Story
For Christmas I got the movie “Another Cinderella Story”. I rate this movie as a 7. It was pretty good, and the story line was cute because it goes with this decade.
The movie stars Selena Gomez as Mary. Mary’s mother died and so Mary now lives …
When Love Begins movie
Last year 2008 my girlfriend asked me to join her in watching When Love Begins. I knew that it was going to be another chick-flick, feel-good movie wherein you have a fairy tale ending. But being the nice boyfriend that I was, not to mention sweet, I agreed. Turns out …
Mama Mia!
The movie “Mamma Mia” is 2008 hottest sensation. Even though it recieved mixed reviews from the critics, the public simply loved this movie so much that it was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards and became the highest grossing film in Britain of all time. The previous record was …
The Butterfly Effect Movie
I originally saw this film at the cinema, and proceeded to by it on DVD as soon as it was released!
The film is based lightly on the idea / scientific theory of chaos. The Chaos Theory.
Throughout his childhood, Evan suffered from black outs, inexplicable to himself or anyone around …
The Twilight Zone episode “Memphis” (2003)
I have always been a fan of television show “The Twilight Zone.” The series, which began decades ago was always successful in creeping me out. I was thrilled when producers decided to bring the series back, and cast popular actors in the episodes. The …
Coyote Ugly movie
Piper Perabo made a big splash in Coyote Ugly back in 2000. The female coyote craze has really grown since then. These are women who both bar-tend and entertain the patrons. They’re gone for getting up atop the bar and singing and dancing, in groups and …
The Heartbreak Kid
I didn’t know too much about the movie The Heartbreak Kid when I first rented it. But, I figured it had Ben Stiller in it so it couldn’t be too bad.
As far as Stiller’s movies go, this is OK but not one of his better ones.
The biggest reason I …
Herbie: Fully Loaded
When I was growing up, Herbie movies were a staple of our movie nights. Who couldn’t love the Love Bug.
In this latest reincarnation of the car hero, he is teamed with Lindsay Lohan. And, quite honestly, I didn’t like the pair.
While the movie did stick to the family-oriented entertainment …
Shrek Forever After in 3D Movie
My brother gave me passes for the premiere of Shrek Forever After, the final chapter in the ogre-starring computer-animated movie franchise. We managed to see the 3D version.
One thing I can say about the movie is that it is definitely better than Shrek 3. There are more funny moments …
The Pursuit of Happyness
Pursuit of Happyness is a movie based on a true story of a man Chris Gardener. It is a tale of struggle, disappointment, fall and rise of his life. Chris Gardener who lives with a 5 year old son trying somehow to make the two ends meet. His monthly …
Movie: The Wizard of Oz
We didn’t really plan on watching any movies tonight as a family; mainly because we plan on going to church in the morning and wanted the kids in bed early. However, shortly before bed time, the movie Wizard of Oz came on. And, even though it wasn’t planned, I …
Movie Mrs Winterbourne
I was flipping through the cable channels last night and I ran across a movie that I had not seen in a long time. It was called Mrs Winterbourne and it starred Brandon Fraser, Ricki Lake.
Mrs Winterbourne was about a case of mistaken identiy that goes too …

Best In Show DVD
Take a documentary about a dog show, and add as much comedy as you can think of…then you will have Best In Show. Best in Show is a wonderful documentary style movie about an annual dog show and the people who enter it.
It is a hytarically funny movie, …
The Penguins’ Whacked-Out Holiday DVD
This movie came as part of a set which included the movie Madagascar. The Penguins’ Whacked-Out Holiday DVD features the penguins from the Madagascar movie. I especially liked the penguins, so it was nice that they got their own little movie, which is basically a short cartoon.
The penguins are …
The Age of Adaline, movie
We all wish we could live to the age of 100, for Adaline Bowman (Blake Lively), this becomes a reality as she enters her 107th year of being alive. Director, Lee Toland Krieger does a remarkable job in projecting the never ending life of Adaline Bowman. In this epic romantic …
All the President’s Men Movie
About the two investigating journalists who discovered the remarkable and shocking Watergate scandal in the early 1970s, something that came on the news in the whole world afterwards.
Even though I think the story here is interesting and that both Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford are great as the two …
White Chicks movie
Where do I start, and where do I find the words to describe this disgusting piece of trash?… Two black FBI agents, Kevin and Marcus Copeland, played by the Wayans brothers, go undercover as two white girls, posing as celebrity sisters who are under the threat of kidnapping. You …
The Death And Life Of Bobby Z
I love Paul Walker very much. And in this movie, The Death And Life Of Bobby Z that he acted which I’ve watched like 2 times, the storyline ain’t that bad.
At first, I was quite skeptical into thinking that it is a rather cheesy gangster movie but …
MacArthur film
I can’t think of general Douglas MacArthur without thinking of Gregory Peck and the 1977 film MacArthur is the reason.
Peck plays the legendary World War II and Korea leader in this entertaining, yet somewhat biased film. And, overall, he does a pretty good job at it.
I liked this movie …
Meet the Spartans
I’m slowly becoming more disappointed with the way comedy movies are going in the United States. There was a time where I could go to the movies (a comedy) and find myself laughing hysterically for a good hour and a half. Now I find myself staring at the screen …
Veggietales: Pistachio
As I often do, I spent some time Friday looking through Netflix’s Instant Watch section for movies I could watch with my two girls.
One of the movies I came across was the VeggieTales movie Pistachio. This proved to be worth watching.
The movie (which is essentially one of their TV …
Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon movie
With the Parent Trap III movie bringing in good ratings for the Walt Disney company, another movie was done the same year called Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon. With Susan now married to Jeffrey Wyatt, the family travels together to Hawaii for the honeymoon. Strange, odd even, but …
Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder is the hilarious chronicle of the making of a movie about Vietnam where the director is ‘inspired’ to take his cast deep into the Vietnam jungle so that they can capture the movie in real time and give it a ‘gritty’ feel to the entire drama. It has …
Quantum of Solace (2008)
So there is a new James Bond movie out and the hype has set in that it is going to be better than the previous movie starring the new James Bond played by Daniel Craig, you as usual get your hopes up and save the few dollars to go …
Evil Dead Movie
My dear readers, I like enjoying thrill movies especially like ghosts movies. The joke here is that , i am very much afraid in seeing the ghost movies. But i was very much keen towards the movie to watch
alone esepcially. I normally used to see movies with my friends. …
Case of the Jolly Hangman
I am reviewing The Case of the Jolly Hangman, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …
A Lot Like Love,movie
A Lot Like Love stars Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet. Its about a couple that have a very casual relationship and their relationships with other and each other over the years. Its a little slow at times but Ashton Kutcher keeps the story interesting. I give …
Erin Brockovich Movie
This is a fantastic movie! Whenever it comes on television I like to watch it all the way through.
Erin Brockovich is the incredible true story of a single mother of three children. She begins to work at a law firm on an important case dealing with a company that …
Tamara movie
I ended up watching a movie I never heard of before last night. But, despite the fact it wasn’t well known, the film “Tamara” was actually an OK film.
The movie is a bit far fetched. Basically you have a girl who is picked on by her high school classmates …
Stormbreaker movie
The best way to describe this movie is a modern time Indiana Jones teen movie. This film is based on the famous book of Anthony Horowitz but there seems to be a bit of a difference between the book and the movie version.
What I found interesting in this movie …
THE ISLAND MOVIE DVD
I hope I am not the only person who was totally NOT impressed with this movie. I found THE ISLAND to be entirely predictable after about 30 minutes. I try so hard not to figure out the endings of movies, or what is REALLY going on, because, when they …
The Proposal (2009 movie)
I watched The Proposal in June 2009 with a couple of friends. Although it was not the movie I originally intended on watching, it was quite interesting and enjoyable. As a romantic comedy, I think that it was nearly flawless; the dull moments in the movie were far outweighed …
Happy feet movie
I first watched this movie was on dvd with my little cousins. It was quite interesting with the nice dancing and singing. The storyline was pretty good. One thing I didn’t really understand was how Mumble, the main penguin went back his own specific colony of penguins, but I …
Bye Bye Birdie
I just adore Bye Bye Birdie and always have. It’s an upbeat, delightful movie musical with a cast that includes one of my favorites, Dick Van Dyke. Dyke’s good-natured demeanor make him perfect for this role as a budding musician with an overbearing mother and a very …
Killer Diller movie
Killer Diller, a 1948 movie doesn’t really feel like a movie. What it feels more like is a cavalcade of talent, African Americans who could really put on a show. Having never seen this before, I was amazed by the show and pretty much enjoyed it all.
Again, …
X-Files, I want to Believe
When the television show X-Files was on TV, I was a person who never found the enthusiasm to watch it. But, when the newest X-Files movie, I want to believe, came out, I figured I would give it a try to see what I had missed.
As it turned out, …
The Incredible Mr. Limpet - Weekend at Weeki Wachee featurette
I really enjoyed the Weekend at Weeki Wachee featurette which had to deal with the premier weekend for the Warner Brothers’ film, The Incredible Mr. Limpet. These type of movie shorts are fun for me. I love going behind the scenes, both to see how a production …
An Erotic Werewolf in London Movie DVD
I didn’t like this movie since I believed it was more of a female exploitation movie, which I wasn’t interested in. This was because it contained a lot of female nudity scenes as well as lesbian scenes which made it more resemble soft core pornography than a horror movie. …
Orphan movie
The movie “Orphan” from 2009 was a must see for me after hearing about all the controversy surrounding it. I have heard that some were concerned that it would discourage prospective parents from adopting. I would assume, after seeing the film, that these people were basing their fears on …
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 …
Shelter Movie (2010)
Shelter is a movie that could have been so much more. It had all the right ingredients: a great actress in the lead- Julianne Moore, a thrilling concept and some well researched information about actual rites and traditions. But the way all of it was put together, just did …
Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull
This is the 4th installment in the Indiana Jones series of films. It has been several years since the last movie was released and the film does account for that lapse in time. I am thankful for that since it would really be hard to pull off since Harrison …
Music and Lyrics (movie )
I’m a fan of both Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, so I had some interest in seeing them together in Music and Lyrics. But, I didn’t know I’d enjoy the movie so much. Grant plays Alex, a has been pop star and Barrymore is Sophie, an aspiring …
The Blair Witch Project (1999)
There was a big buzz on the internet months before —˜The Blair Witch Project’ was released in the cinema in 1999. Prior to making the movie, the director and writer, Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez, had made a documentary purporting to be real, involving eye witness accounts and …

Meet The Parents (Film)
Meet The Parents is a comedy starring Ben Stiller which focuses on the basic story of a boyfriend meeting his girlfriend’s parents for the first time in a weekend stay. I’ll add that this isn’t the typical weekend stay, as everything that can go wrong, basically does go wrong. …
Charlie Bartlett movie
Once in a while a teen coming of age movie comes along that I really like, and “Charlie Bartlett” became one of those. In fact, I marveled that I did not hear about it before when it was obvious that the movie was released fairly recently. It starred actors …
