Interview with a Vampire
Interview with a Vampire was a great vampire movie! I thought it was very creative how the vampire tells the reporter the whole story while we see what he is telling. Also I think that Brad Pitt and Christian Slater did a great job of acting as vampires. The movie …

They came to him with a story that an attempt is going to be made on the life of the United States President and only he has the expert knowledge to find out where the shooter will be and try to stop him before the attempted assassination is done. …
Jacobs Ladder
Jacobs Ladder is a strange movie, to say the least. I have watched Jacobs Ladder several times and still don’t know for sure if Jacob, the main character, is just a psychotic man with mental problems or if what he experiences actually happened. That is the appeal of this …
Movie Review of the Machinist
When Christian Bzle emerged from Hollywood to don the cape of Batman, the critics were at first skeptical, then heaped paeans of praise for his acting. It wasn’t as popular as Superman– hell, it was a portrayal of a dark character set against a dark backdrop. Between …
Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …

The Aviator tells the true story of director and industrialist Howard Hughes or as close to true as it gets in Hollywood. Hughes is played well by Leonardo DiCaprio and other actors turn up at odd times playing someone else important in the man’s life. Kate Beckinsale plays Ava …

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
We ended up picking up the second Madagascar movie “Escape 2 Africa” last night and wasn’t really sure what to expect. The first one was OK but not the best movie ever and we all know sequels usually don’t live up to the original.
As it turns out, the second …
Pirates of the Caribean
We recently purchased the Pirates of the Caribean on video from Wal Mart. The one with Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. I enjoyed this movie as much at home as I did in the movies when it first came out.

The Avengers Movie
Captain America . Thor. Iron Man . Hulk. These are characters that I grew up with and whose films I had fun with and I have always looked forward to. What happens when all these characters fall into one and the same mixture? A true epic! Marvel’s production “The …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: the movie
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 …
Tinkerbell Great Fairy Rescue
Ever since I was a child, I was a fan of cartoon movies especially about princess and fairies. I grew up knowing Tinkerbell and even though they are not real there’s a part of me that still do. Since I have a daughter now who loves watching movies about …
Movie - Why Did I Get Married, Too?
I saw Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married?” a few years back and, although I don’t think it was a masterpiece, it was still an interesting look at husband-wife relationships.
When the sequel, “Why Did I Get Married, Too?” came out on dvd, I decided to watch it. To …
Kingdom of Heaven (2005 film)
A direct cause and effect product of my personal favorite film of all times Gladiator (2000), Kingdom of Heaven takes us where history of the Middle Ages has always talked about-the Crusades. It is a film that inspired me for the heroic part of that time’s history.
…
UHF movie
A complete idiot takes control of a TV station by accident and gets the opportunity to make any broadcasts he wants.

Away We Go (2009 Movie)
Away We Go is based on what I thought was a cute idea, so I really wanted to go see it. I missed it in the theatres though, because my friends wanted to see other things. I’m pleased that I managed to see it even though I didn’t get …
Escape to Witch Mountain movie
Disney’s 1975 film, Escape to Witch Mountain, is a delight even now, decades later, as I write this review. The cast is terrific, and the story definitely entertains. It’s done with traditional family style and adventure, and even more so, there was a lot of heart, and …
Zodiac (R, 2007) movie
I will admit that this movie seemed a little slow to me at first. I had seen the other Zodiac movie (slightly better than a B movie) and this one was much more thorough. Jake Gyllenhaal provided a very believable performance. But overall, I …

I’m going to give this movie sort …
George Lopez: America’s Mexican
I love the George Lopez shows, that air on nick. But the stand up I found kind of racy and not to funny. Some parts was more funny I enjoyed the childhood parts but overall I am glad he is proud of his race, but it got to the …

The Beautician and the Beast
This silly little flick of a movie seems to be one of those that people either love, for whatever reason, or hate. It was filmed in 1997 when the Soviet Union no longer existed, but certain fascination with it obviously still did; so the moviemakers invented this Eastern European …
Going Overboard
I bought this film because of adam sandler and i thought “great he nomally dose good films” when i got it home i was in for a shock! it was the most rubbish film i have ever seen in my life! i think this film has just been thrown …

The Messengers
The Messengers is just a lame, dull, boring story that I have seen played in movies countless times before. I don’t understand why they should make a horror movie as such. If I am to be a Director, and I decide to make a horror movie, I …
Hungry Ghosts (episode, “A Haunting”) DVD
The Discovery Channel has presented a program called “A Haunting,” in which real people present their real-life ghost stories. These stories are very intriguing, and fairly scary - that is, if you believe in that sort of thing. I happen to believe in many elements …
Employee of the Month
I saw previews for Employee of the Month a few months ago but never made an effort to rent it. It just didn’t look that good.
But, when it became available on Showtime, I decided to at least give it a chance. I wasn’t disappointed.
Like most movies that take place …

When Harry met Sally movie
This cult-rated romantic comedy was the very first of a long series of similar films, all starring Meg Ryan as practically the same character. When Harry met Sally was directed by the talented Rob Reiner (even though he wasted his talent at several occasions in my opinion), and also …
Red Riding Hood (Movie)
I recently watched the movie Red Riding Hood starring Amanda Seyfried as the popular children’s story main character. I was very curious to watch the movie as I wanted to see how they would depict a well-known children’s story into a full fledged movie. The plot was …
A Prairie Home Companion
I personally had a lot of hope for this movie because of the amount of publicity it got, the celebrities which were involved such as film star Lindsay Lohan and the actress Meryl Streep; and just the fact that our cable service provider even ordered the movie for its …
Far Pavilions
This mini-series drew me in right away, probably because of the international aspect of the story. I like movies that offer insight into different cultures, and this is one of them. The story takes place in India, focusing on a British boy Ashton and an Indian princess Anjuli. They …

Clambake movie
From 1967, the movie musical Clambake stars the king of rock and roll, Elvis Presley. It’s not an award winner by any means, but it is a fun movie, albeit predictable. It’s just not a stretch of any of the performers’ acting talents. By this point, …
Nim’s Island, adventure-fantasy film
Walden Media hasn’t really changed movies with some of their movie adaptations of their famous novels. There seems to be more buzz around the actual title than the movie itself, which doesn’t sit well for movie goes. Is Nim’s Island going to suffer the same way just all the …

Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf movie
Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf is one of the outings that I always remember, probably because it featured two soap opera stars in the leads. It’s not that I’m a fan of either of them, as I’m not, but it’s just something I remember. The two actors are …
Awake movie
I watched the movie awake yesterday. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie. I didn’t want to stop watching it for anything. The thought of “anesthetic awareness” to me is scary. To think that you are going into surgery and you are not fully asleep and can still …
