The Final Destination movie
We decided to rent the fourth Final Destination movie The Final Destination on Saturday. I’m not sure why we thought it would be as good as the first two (or even the crappy third one), but it proved to be somewhat of a mistake.

I skipped this film in theaters because I wasn’t sure that I could sit through two hours of watching people pretend that a Real Doll (sex doll) was really the girlfriend of a local man. I realized upon watching this movie that I was right in my decision …
Network movie
Network was an intriguing motion picture that really tests just how far the media will go for ratings. The scary part is I feel like we’ve seen just how far they’d go, only this was back before the craziness really became rampant.
Faye Dunaway makes a big impression in …
The Reaping Movie
Hilary Swank is one of my favorite Hollywood actresses, so it wasn’t a surprise that I would the movie. It’s really dark and scary, especially since I watched it alone and right before I was going to bed. I think the reason why it wasn’t a hit in the …
Medea’s Family Reunion
Should I be annoyed? I really don’t know. Why do we as women allow our decisions, especially when it comes to love and marriage to be clouded by perception? The perception of friends, relatives and society, as to what is ideal and what is ‘necessary’?
In Tyler Perry’s …

Amelie (romantic comedy movie)
After watching it, I’ve come to the conclusion that “Amelie” is one of those movies that is so unique and enjoyable that I could find myself watching it multiple times. This is even though I’m not a huge fan of most romantic comedies.
The movie revolves around the very peculiar …

The movie Lakeview Terrace was an all around great movie. The idea of an African American police officer being against an interracial couple is a very unusual idea, but it is possible which makes the movie very believable. Samuel L. Jackson hit another home run with this edge of …
The Dilemma (Movie)
The Dilemma is newly out of cinemas (Depends where you live) here in South Africa. The trailer was very ammusing, and i thought the movie would be hilarious.
