I’ll be the first to admit, even as a man, I’m a sucker when it comes to romances. And I can’t say I was ‘dragged’ to the blockbuster hit Twilight, but instead voluntarily agreed to go.
With that in mind, should you see Twilight if you never read the books? …

I thought that the movie “The Golden Compass” had a wealth of potential. When I saw it advertising to be released in theatres, I thought it would have been something like “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe”, however, when I watched it I realized …

Though made in 2009, Desperate Escape only premiered on the Lifetime Movie Channel in February 2010. Make no mistake this is a B-movie with a standard, much-used plot and not a single surprise within in, unless you’re new to TV and movies. What it does have, however, …

I was looking for movies my daughter can watch during the afternoons between the time she gets home from school and when my wife and I want the TV. One of those movies was All Dogs Go to Heaven.
It had been a while since I saw the movie so …

My co-workers and I decided that we should probably go see a movie for the two for one special a local theatre was having. Two of us wanted to see the new Spiderman movie and the other two wanted to go and see one of those random chick flicks …

One thing I’ve always had a soft spot for is post appocalyptic films, and the 1964 version of the movie “Last Man on Earth” is just that. In fact, the first thing it reminded me of was the most recent version of the movie “I am Legend” starring the …

Vampire Knight: Guilty is the second season of the anime based on the manga, Vampire Knight, by Matsuri Hino which is my favorite vampire anime, mainly because it is a shoujo, but still serious at the same time. The image on this DVD cover is of Ichiru and …

Living Out Loud is a very nice 2009 (though it was filmed in 2008) Hallmark movie about a woman who discovers she has breast cancer. The film follows her discovery, treatment, decisions, and recovery.
Gail O’Grady turns in a powerful performance as Emily Marshall, teacher, mother, and wife, who …

I had heard this so much about this small penguin and having in my brain the popular saying “where there are a lot of cherries hold a small basket”, I was little circumspect with the particular animation movie. Also, I believed that after “Searching for Nemo” hardly another animation …

I was already a fan of Jason Statham because I fell in love with his gorgeous accent. I can’t resist a man with an accent. This film is definitely fast paced. You do not have time to sit and wonder what happens next. It keeps moving and moving and …

After watching the first “Iron Man”, I knew that I would have to watch the second one, which came out in 2010. “Iron Man 2” was not only as well acted and plotted out as the first one, but delivered an even more powerful character conflict and a very …

My wife and I wanted to watch a horror movie last night before bed and I didn’t want to be up too late so I ended up picking out the film Zombie Wars; based solely on the fact it was only about 90 minutes long.
I wasn’t expecting much from …

Cleaner the movie is running short than 2 hours but I think it is not that bad of a movie. This is about a crime story and at first when my sister brought this DVD movie home, I thought it’s another funny comedy flick or something. But once …

I haven’t seen this movie for years until I saw it on television again late last year. It has a similar name to another movie called “The Deep End” and is not to be confused with it as they both have two completely different plots. Nevertheless I think that …

My daughter is starting to like Hannah Montana; at least the outfits and the toys, she doesn’t really watch the show. So, when we had the opportunity to watch the Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds 3-D Concert the other night, we did; mostly for her.
But, …

Oh I love this movie ! The chemistry between the characters is apparent during the film and I love the story line and plot; the characters are round and not two dimensional, in other words there is a lot to uncover about the characters as the story moves on. …

The second installation in the National Treasure saga, this one doesn’t just pickup from where the last one left off, it has a soul for itself. This one takes you so far back in history that you will be amazed at what you missed out on in school.
Nicholas Cage …

I have way more respect for actress Tina Fey since I started watching episodes of ‘30 Rock’ on DVD. I caught one episode when it first came on the air. But for some reason, I never followed up on the program. When Tina Fey …

“Leatherheads” represent one of the first attemps for the actor George Clooney to be involved in a movie, not just as an actor, but also as a director. I say that after seeing Clooney being involved in a lot of dramatic movies, “Leatherheads” comes across as a surprise since …

That Girl’s Season Three DVD set is the least packed of the first three sets in terms of bonus material. Shout Factory has kept the same packaging theme and style as the others. It’s colorful and features the famous silhouette of Marlo Thomas as That Girl that …

When I first saw previews to Surf’s Up, the first thing I thought was ‘Not another penguin movie.’ But, after taking the time to watch it last night, I have to admit it was probably the best out of those I’ve seen.
Unlike other Penguin movies, Surf’s Up doesn’t take …

This movie was actually pretty good. Most of the main characters managed to capture the essence of the lives they were supposed to play, but some did not. Mos Def played Chuck Berry and did an outstanding job portraying one of the pioneers of what we now know as …

I recently watched The Pacifier starring Vin Diesel as Shane Wolf a Navy Seal whose latest mission is to protect 5 children from assassins trying to get a secret program from their home. Lauren Gram plays a principal and Brad Garret a laughable vice principal at …

When I was growing up, Godzilla was the ultimate movie monster. After seeing a more recent version of the series, Godzilla Vs. Destroyer, I am starting to see why he never won an Oscar.
The plot of the movie itself was decent. He once again has to fight a monster, …

An American Haunting is a good movie, supposedly to be based on a true story about John Bell and his family. I was watching it with some friends and my boyfriend, and we were all ready to get spooked or something. Instead, the movie turned out pretty …

When I saw the preview of this movie…it looked interesting, when I saw the movie…it was awesome, when I decided to buy this movie, it was a great idea. How often do you see your own future and be horrified by it, plus have the courage to make it …

The original and, in my honest opinion, without doubt the best of the series; Alien not only stands the test of time in its own genre, but in the landscape of film altogether.
While Alien has hardly been short changed by the critics and a vast audience, there are …

I have to admit, outside of Wayne�s World and Wayne�s World 2, I haven�t seen many Dana Carvey movies. But, after watching his film, Clean Slate, I think I�m going to have to see more.
Granted, Carvey wasn�t overly convincing as a private investigator. He just didn�t seem tough enough, …

Ok, the first A Nightmare on Elm Street was an interesting movie with an interesting premise. Never seen the second so I can’t comment on it, but the third one is just, well, silly.
The plot is essentially the same, except now there are more kids involved. And …

Sumuru isn’t an A-movie. It’s not really even a B-movie. I actually liken Sumuru to a Patrick Swayze movie called Skatetown USA. Both are so bad that they are oddly enticing and fun to watch. Sumuru’s main attraction is its star, Michael Shanks, who plays …

When I first heard that ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’ was to be released on film, I was thrilled. I was a little chagrined, though, to learn that it would be a Japanese anime production.
I was so happy, in the first instance, because I love the book on which the film …

Lindsey Lohan isn’t exactly a star that draws me to a movie, so when we got Just My Luck from Netflix I was a bit skeptical about it.
Overall though, it was a pretty good movie.
Lohan plays a woman who is extremely lucky but ends up giving an unlucky guy …

Moon is a very interesting and intriguing film that I found to be a very decent watch, if a little confusing at times.
I thought the idea for the back story was quite good, as it’s not something I’ve seen done successfully before. But the plot twists really make it …

I am reviewing the movie, Garden of Death, starring John Nettles and Daniel Casey. This film was made in 2000, was produced by Brian True-May, and was based off the novels of author Caroline Graham.
In this movie, tea is the answer! This film revolves around the village’s uproar …
