Last Vegas (2013 Film)

30 Days of Night Movie
Yesterday, I bought the movie ‘30 Days of Night’. I had wanted to see it since it came out in the theaters but hadn’t because I wasn’t sure it’d be worth it. So I decided I’d wait until it was out on DVD and buy it.
I like Josh Harnett. …
“Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” movie
After seeing the next one already, overrated film with Depp in the lead role, such as at least three of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” I realized that the goal of this production is only attract large audiences billboard advertising, a good harbinger, and the name of the actor.
With …
Cold Mountain
At first, I had a hard time getting myself to watch the movie “Cold Mountain” especially since I thought it would have been a Western, and I have a strong dislike for Westerns. However, recently when I was at a friend’s house, I found the DVD and decided to …
Days of Darkness
Watching Days of Darkness totally scared the hell out of me. I find the storyline very scary and in fact, if I were to be one of the characters, I would faint several times already. The cover of this DVD movie is also very scary and don’t let …

Untraceable (R, 2009)
I must say that I love Diane Lane. She tends to have this quiet sex appeal that translates very well on screen whether she’s playing a seductive role or not. In any rate, I’m not used to seeing her in thrillers. But this particular movie was …
The Cowboys movie
This was a different spin for a western. It’s time to take the cattle to market, but cattleman Wil Anderson doesn’t have any drovers. They’ve all caught gold fever. Having no choice, Anderson does something extraordinary. He hires a group of boys to help him get …
Movie P.S. I Love You (2007)
P.S. I Love You (2007) is pure bliss. I love watching this DVD each time pretty much. I love looking at the way Hillary Swank acts and she always has this rapport with the camera.
I think the camera really loves her, truly. Holly Kennedy is …
Ghost Hunt (anime)
Ghost Hunt is a really interesting anime about the supernatural phenomenon of ghosts and exorcisms. I liked how there are many different “professional exorcists” who come to make up the team. I also liked how the different cases are more than one episode. I thought that …
The Perfect Storm movie
Yet another one of those human disaster films, this time directed by the once so talented Wolfgang Petersen who made Das Boot back in the early 1980s. Mark Wahlberg and George Clooney are the fishers who experience the worst storm in history out in the middle of the ocean, …
Troll (1986 Film)
The 1986 film “Troll” is in one word, eerie. Now, being used to the creepy and spooky bump in the night films of the modern day, movie lovers may wonder what a 1986 movie may hold in the eerie department compared to a movie of today. But it’s the …

The Women (Movie)
This is a very nice movie and when I watched this I was reminded by Sex and the City, but the girls here are much laid-back and more conservative and more professional and laid-back than the cast of Sex and the City, but they aren’t necessarily boring.
The movie features …
Pan’s Labyrinth (Laberinto del Fauno)
I remember first seeing a preview for Pan’s Labyrinth and thinking to myself, “This movie’s gonna be stupid!” and “It’s a rip-off of Chronicles of Narnia!”. After hearing about how great the movie supposedly was, of course I had to see for myself. Now I can say that this …
Oz the Great and Powerful, 2013 movie
I just watched Oz the Great and Powerful and I have to say that I am a little disappointed by it. I was expecting a great movie and all I got was a so and so one. Before watching it I was thinking to myself “God, I hope James …
Wild Hogs
This movie, which features Tim Allen, John Travolta, and Martin Lawrence, was very popular in the theatres, which was part of why I decided to go see it.
The trailers looked okay, not particularly great but I’ve never really believed in picking movies based on trailers anyway.
The story goes: four …
Return of the Jedi movie
Some call this movie Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, but as I’ve said before, to me, it’s just plain Return of the Jedi. Once commonly thought of as just another sequel, once George Lucas actually wrote his other scripts, it became a rung in …
A Series of Unfortunate Events (The Movie)
Lemony Snicket’s ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ is a movie that documents the first three books of the series of the same name. The movie, like with most movies adapted from books, was a rather aggravating contrast from the real book. Unlike other movies however the real contrast came …
Nim’s Island
Don’t make the mistake to regard the movie “Nim’s Island” as just another movie for kids. This movie is ideal for all the family jam-packed with drama, romance and funny moments. Apart from providing us with a cute and entertaining story, “Nim’s Island” has got an A-List of actors …

Pulp Fiction (1994)
There is no other movie like Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction.” It is definitely at the top of my favorites list. This movie is chocked full of best talent that Hollywood has to offer. With big names like Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Uma Thurman and …
My Blue Heaven
This past weekend was the first time I had a chance to sit down and watch the movie My Blue Heaven. It was an OK film but it wasn’t as good as I expected it to be and almost a waste of my time this past weekend.
I’m usually a …
Basquiat (1996 film)
I will open by saying that “Basquiat” is a terrific film, in every way you could name. The performances, by an all-star ensemble cast, are nearly flawless, the direction and visual composition of the film mirrors the personal, intense nature of its subject’s art, and the soundtrack covers a …
A Roman Holiday (1953)
Just lately, I’ve been wondering why in my history of watching old films, I never sighted an Audrey Hepburn film in TCM, a channel repository for classic movies. Crouched in front of a grainy black and white TV screen, I like to pass the time as a nocturne …
The Quiet Earth Movie
One morning an ordinary man wakes up and realizes he is the only alive on earth. Almost the only one, at least.

Movie on Kingdom of Heaven
There is a reason why I love watching movies that involved epic wars, adventure and of course, a talented director named Riddley Scott. One such movie is entitled Kingdom of Heaven, a story about the crusaders during the early 11th century. Though it is not a recent movie, I …
Children of the Corn
Children of the Corn of the corn is a movie that made me become afraid of kids. I really think this movie is horrifying. I really liked the acting in the movie. These kids were really creepy and very evil. I liked their supernatural power. The music also really scared …
Beerfest movie
I think the movie Beerfest was apparently trying somehow to fit into that genre of comedy which focuses mostly on sex, drinking, goofy situations and having fun but still manages to be hilarious. However, I think in this respect Beerfest failed miserably. It was one of the worst excuses …

Cadillac Records (R, 2008)
After hearing the hype about Beyonce being in this movie, I can’t say that I was itching to go see it. With all due respect to Beyonce, her acting abilities have left a little to be desired. In any event, I was surprised to realize that …

“Ted” movie
I’m not a huge fan of Seth MacFarlane. I used to like “Family Guy”, but eventually grew tired of it to the point where even the early seasons aren’t as enjoyable as I remember them. “The Cleveland Show” was just awful from the start and, while I’ve …

Paris Je T’aime
I love watching Paris Je T’aime so much that I have watched it for over 2 times. This is a special case movie, and it features about 20 directors to create a 5 minute film about Paris. That is great, I get to see 20 different stories …
