Uncle Buck Movie
I got home from work yesterday and my wife had just started watching the movie Uncle Buck. I didn’t intend on watching it. But, I had to wait for the dishwasher to get done before I could start dinner (my frying pan was in it) so I sat down …
Angels in the Outfield
One of the movies which I can remember was released in the nineteen nineties was the movie “Angels in the Outfield”. It was one of the movies I loved as a child since it was a children’s movie with a very interesting plot. It was not one of those …
Se7en (1995 Classic Thriller Film)
When everyone else is busy watching the seemingly endless mediocre movies put out by today’s filmmakers who happens to only entertain, I’m here digging up classics which I thought would be medicine to my ever needing needs for great films.
It’s been my tradition to watch classic films now and then. …
Mr. Woodcock, movie
Everyone remembers one teacher one teacher that seemed to have it out for them. Maybe it was a pesky history teacher, or the woman with the grey hair who stood guard in American lit, but for most of us, it was the most dreaded of all the primary school …
Prom Night Movie
Recently I had the chance to watch the new remake of Prom Night. I’ve been a fan of horror movies for a long time and actually saw the original, though I can’t recall it very clearly. The original actually inspired a handful of sequels, starring other actresses that were …
Cars movie
I enjoy Pixar movies very much, and Cars is no exception. This computer-generated animated movie features the voices of Owen Wilson, Bonnie Hunt, Michael Keaton and others. Like many Pixar movies, the story takes place in an alternate world, a world where cars, not humans, rule …

Hermione’s Dress
As I’m sure all you Harry Potter fans know, in the fourth movie, there was a dance called the ‘Yule Ball’.
Now, I read about this in the book, but I never imagined that everything would be so pretty!
When I saw Hermione’s dress in the film, I just died!!!
It’s …
Transformers Animated Series - Black Arachnia Action Figure
Black Arachnia is one of the Decepticons in the Transformers Animated Series toy line. She is unusual in that she is one of the few female Transformers. One must wonder what gender would even mean in terms of robots, but I digress. She is a neat …

Knowing movie
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 …

The action and suspense picks up a bit more in this episode as Cameron discovers that Cromartie came through with them during time travel and that a shipment of refined coltan is suspected to be the metal component in construction of the terminators in the future war to come. …
Unknown (movie)
Like many of the movies I’ve watched recently, one of the first places that I heard of the movie “Unknown” was on a movie blog. The plot sounded very promising, so I got the movie and watched it with two people as soon as I had the time. Everyone …
Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull
My fiance and I saw this movie this weekend. I adore the Indiana Jones movies and used to play ‘Indiana Jones’, when I was a kid with my friends. Of course I’m a girl so I had a mad crush on Harrison Ford.
I loved the fact that they made …

Franklyn, British film by Gerald McMorrow
The question I asked myself while watching Franklyn on blu-ray was how do these four stories come together? The back of the case suggests that it all comes together at some point but I am not seeing it. Does Franklyn have bull shit written all over it or is …
Season of the Witch (movie)
When I saw the movie “Season of the Witch” advertising early this year on cable, I definitely wanted to watch it, and I became even more interested in seeing it after I saw that the actor Robert Sheenan from “Misfits” had a major role in it.
The movie, which was …
Confessions (Japanese Movie)
Confessions (Kokuhaku) is a 2010 Japanese drama film directed by Tetsuya Nakashima, based on Kanae Minato’s 2008 debut mystery novel.

Pirates 3: At World’s End
I am reviewing the third installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, called At World’s End. Okay, so the first movie was fantastic. The second movie was good. The third…terrible. What were those writers thinking? I am a huge Pirates of the Caribbean fan, but I …
Movie: A Christmas Story
My wife and I ended up wrapping Christmas gifts at the very last second late last night while the kids were asleep. Since we were getting tired and needed something to keep us awake until the work was done, we decided to put on the Christmas classic A Christmas …
Rest Stop: Don’t Look Back (NR, 2008)
I only rented this movie because I thought that the first one was fairly decent. Looking back, I realize that not only was the first one not as good as I’d imagined, there NEVER should have been a sequel. The whole concept behind this film …
Curse of Frankenstein
I have seen almost every Frankenstein movie ever made and have to say, after seeing Curse of Frankenstein, I’m convinced Christopher Lee is the best at playing the classic literary monster (sorry Boris Karloff).
Made in the 1950s, The Curse of Frankenstein actually focuses more on Victor Frankenstein (played by …
High Society movie
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen High Society, but the opportunity presented itself again recently, so I gave it a watch. Overall, it’s just a cute and bubbly movie with Grace Kelly putting on airs and Bing Crosby as the down the earth pal who just …
Black Christmas movie
Known to be the first “slasher” film. It is about some sorority girls who get stalked by a psychopathic killer during christmas time. One by one they fall victim to his intelligent way of tricking them into his hands. It begins very promising with suspenseful opening sequence. But from …

Saw IV movie
I wasn’t a big fan of the Saw movies when they first came out but they eventually grew on me. However, after watching Saw IV, I have to say it’s time to bring the franchise to an end.
Jigsaw dies in Saw III, along with his accomplice so you would …
“Star Wars: Phantom Menace” (1999 Film)
The 1999 film “Star Wars: Phantom Menace” was just as wonderful as the other films before it. I didn’t think that I would be a fan of the Star Wars movies, but each time I watch a new one I find myself falling in love with them all over …
Crazy in Alabama
I don’t know what it is lately, but it seems, whenever I rent a “comedy” it turns out to be a good movie but it is horribly mis-classified.
That’s the case with the movie Crazy in Alabama; which, like many other movies is billed as a funny movie. But, in …
Poltergeist - Supernatural Horror Movie (2015)
As far as horror movies go, Poltergeist is not a movie I’m planning to watch again. It’s a remake of the 1982 movie, Poltergeist, and from what I hear, the original is way better. Although I watched this in 3D in theaters, there were very few scares to boast of …
The Quick and The Dead
The Quick and the Dead stars Russell Crowe, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sharon Stone, Gene Hackman, and Gary Sinise.
A must see western principally due to the nonstop action and great music. Over the years the quality that makes a western standout has always been memorable music and …
The Crow Movie
One of the best movies ever made was “The Crow”. The story line is great and the characters are believable.
Eric Draven and his bride to be, Shelly, are brutally murdered on Halloween. On the one year anniversary of their death, Eric rises from the dead with a …
Dedication Movie
In must admit that I really enjoy watching Mandy Moore’s movie; however “Dedication” failed to impress me. Even though the great actors, Diane Wiest and Tom Wilkinson give a lot to this movie, ultimately I found it a boring romantic comedy. It seems that I am not the only …
Dirty Dancing - 20th Anniversary DVD set
Dirty Dancing was an awesome, feel good movie that remains a phenomena to this day. This special 20th Anniversary edition has a lot of exciting extras. Some can be found on other DVD releases of the standout movie, but others are unique to this collection.
The DVD set …

Even though famous actors such as Ryan Reynolds, Isla Fisher and Rachel Weisz are part of the movie project “Definitely, Maybe”, the actress that holds the main attention in this romantic flick is Abigail Breslin. This actress is just 12 years old and she already managed to be nominated …
James Bond Casino Royale Movie
The movie James Bond Casino Royale is the best Bond movie I have seen. The action is amazing, but it also has an engaging, exciting plot. The action is shot and acted in a way that you really feel scared for the characters. It is never …
Kill Bill Volume 1
I always like Uma thurman movie, like this one, Kill Bill volume 1. She’s always good in acting especially in action movie. Kill Bill volume 1 is based from a book from an unofficial casebook by D.K Holm as author.

Umrao Jaan
Watching Umrao Jaan brought tears to my eyes. This is a Hindi movie in Urdu, I think and if I’m not mistaken. I don’t speak Hindi language nor Urdu and it helps each time whenever I watch a movie of Hindi genre, or Bollywood, there will be subtitles. …
Capitalism: A Love Story
“Capitalism: A Love Story” is Michael Moore’s newest documentary. And in true Michael Moore fashion it does not disappoint. Not many movies get a round of applause at the theater, but this one did. This was a great movie. My boyfriend was on the edge …
Rugrats: Decade in Diapers
As a parent, I’m always looking for ways to keep my daughter occupied for an hour or two so I can have a bit of quiet time for myself (or some time alone with my wife). One of the ways I do that is by having a variety of …
Leatherheads movie
George Clooney, Rennee Zellwegger play in this movie. It’s basically about football a long time ago. It was an entertaining movie. Other than that it was just a movie. If you are looking for a good story then I don’t recommend leatherheads. If you are just looking for a …
Wanted (R, 2008) movie
I had been dying to see Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy in this hot action thriller. But there are several things that I am really not happy with. First of all, Angelina was a bit too thin to really be considered a sex symbol. It is …
Indecent Proposal movie (1993)
I’m sure that most of you out there have already seen “Indecent Proposal,” considering all of the hype surrounding it. But for those of you who have never seen the film, I will offer you my personal opinions on it. I remember being anxious to see this movie before …

Wolfman (2010) movie
Since I had already watched the older version of this movie once or twice, and had some respect for it, when someone told me that a newer version was coming out earlier on this year, I couldn’t wait to see it. I had all these expectations that whomever was …
