Movie Children of the Corn
While i’ve never read the book written by Steven King, i’ve watched all of the movies during my childhood. i must say that now that i’ve become a Christian, I regret doing this. I have asked Jehovah God for forgiveness billions of times over.
While the movies were very gorey, …
Flight Movie
I already knew that Denzel Washington was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for this film before I watched it. Thus, I was expecting this film to be somehow good. I thought it was some aviation disaster film or a terrorist-inspired aviation film. However, the movie was …

Benchwarmers Movie
The Benchwarmers was a funny movie filled with great actors. It has to be funny with a lineup of David Spade, Jon Heder, and Rob Schnider. I found that there were several jokes that were PG-13 but nothing too severe. Jon Heder made it great. It really was a …
Transformers the Movie
we went to the theater last summer to see the movie that my son had comic books on from when he was a child. He used to watch the cartoon Transformers on Saturaday morning and like a lot of kids had the toys that went along with the …
Coraline (Film)
I love Tim Burton movies. I think they make great movies for all different ages, with enough of the eerie element to keep me interested. I fell in love after watching a Nightmare before Christmas; the animation was just so different, three dimensional but not of reality. I was …
The Heartbreak Kid
Supposedly a remake of a 1972 comedy, this 2007 release is a vulgar R-rated flick packed with obscenities, gross-out humor, and no wits whatsoever. Prolonged scenes of rough sex are supposed to be funny, as well as disgusting smirks at bestiality. The major plot line is the same: a …
Prince of Persia (2010)
I just saw this movie on its opening night, and it entertained me, but didn’t thrill me.
While I liked Prince of Persia: Sands of Time for most of its action and storyline, I wonder if something wasn’t missing here. There was a lot of good acting, and certainly …

What Would Jesus Buy
The most pervasive sin in our society isn’t lust, far from it in fact which is why it’s so easy for us to see, but far more dangerous to our society are greed and gluttony, and driving to that point in a humorous and profound way is What Would …
Get Smart movie
“Get Smart” was a great show back in 1965 when the first episode aired, although I was too young to actual watch the first episode, I enjoyed many years of reruns. Surprisingly, one of the creators was Mel Brooks, which I think is a naturally funny guy without really …
Film 2012
I went to see 2012 with much expectation due to all hype around it. But I was not very impressed with what I saw in the silver screen. I came out with a mixed feeling. The theme of the story is of course the world gets demolished on 2012, …

Anna and the King
I admit that I am a Jodie Foster fan. Whatever this actress does, she always impress me with her acting talent. “Anna and the King” is an impressive movie mainly because the two main acters are simply brilliant and together with a great director they manage to hold you …
P.S. I Love You movie
I know that I am a girl and I love reading love stories but I am not a big fan of watching a pure drama love stories. Don’t get me wrong, I love mushy stuff but not the drama factor the whole time because it really affects my mood. When …
My Best Friend’s Girl movie
My Best Friend’s Girl from 2008 is a disaster. The only reason I watched this thing was because I noticed a listing in the credits for Patrick Swayze that referred to this movie. He was given ’special thanks’ along with a few other performers. I knew …

Liberty Heights movie
I tend to like a lot of films, especially drama films which have a historical setting. These films do not necessarily have to be based on a factual story either, and they do not have to be set in the far history like medieval times. This is what attracted …
The Remains of the Day
I am so glad I have found this treasure of a movie. A forgotten treasure, unfortunately; I have never heard of it before, neither have I heard other people mention it. I hope this review will help to draw much deserved attention to this thoughtful, well-acted, well-paced production. I …
Phantom of the Opera movie
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Phantom of the Opera came to the big screen in 2004, and it was an incredible success. I had the priviledge of seeing it in the theatres while in Mexico, and even there, in a foreign tongue, it received rave reviews. I would completely agree with …
50 first dates movie
50 first dates starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore is a nice romantic comedy and is a very good entertainer. The movie must be watched just for Adam Sandler’s comic sense and Drew Barrymore’s beauty. Henry sees Lucy in a restaurant and likes her at the very first instant …
Lovewrecked movie
When this movie came out, I wasn’t really sure if I’m going to watch it or not. I am not a very big fan of teen-age movies as I am not a teen-ager anymore. But since I admire Amanda Bynes so much, I decided to give it a try.
Here, …
Movie: iMurders
Synopsis: FBI agents attempt to catch a killer stalking a group of people participating in an on-line chatroom.
What I liked about this movie: I’m a big fan of movies that have a realistic plot and there’s nothing more realistic than someone stalking people they met online and murdering them. …
Big Fish movie
“Big Fish” is a very unique film starring Ewan McGregor. When I say unique, I really mean unique. It is a very hard film to describe without spoiling the plot.
Pros: Tim Burton certainly used all of his creative juices in directing this film. The film includes …
Red Dawn (1984)
There is some controversy about this movie and the date it was released, to the effect that it was the very first movie to have a Motion Picture Association rating of PG-13 due to the excessive violence that the movie offered. Now I say to you my good viewing …
Race to Witch Mountain (Staring Dwayne Johnson)

The Night They Took Miss Beautiful movie
From 1977, this is a B-movie, if that, that takes beauty pageants and makes a joke out of them. The movie is called The Night They Took Miss Beautiful and stars some very recognizable names, such as Chuck Conners as Mike O’Toole, the head of the airport from …
Movie: Transformers
I recently watched “Transformers”, the new live action and computer animated flick based on the cartoon from the mid 1980’s. Wow.

Moulin Rouge movie
This movie which acts like a musical is very enjoyable to watch. I really liked the singing, and found Nicole Kidman great in her role. The coincidences were funny, and the entire movie was just silly.
The play within the movie was ridiculous, but how they tied it into the …
DreamGirls (2006 Movie)
I recently saw this movie and loved it. The acting and musical talent was awesome. I already knew that Beyonce` could sing wonderfully but was pleasantly surprised to know that Eddie Murphy could also. There were so many instances that that I laughed and cried. Seeing this movie made …

Street Law, movie (1974)
Enzo Castellari has a knack for making Italian action films. Fabio Testi seemed to be his go-to star. Yet, one film in particular, Castellari utilized the talents of the original Django. The end result was one of the better poliziotteschi films put out by Castellari. …

Frequency
The movie “Frequency” which starred Dennis Quaid and James Caviezel as father and son tandem is a entertainingly family oriented film. It would make you realize the importance of having a father in the home. How tormenting it would be to a child who grows up without the …

Movie The Strangers
This 2008 release is a very disappointing movie. I’ve seen the trailer a few times so I thought it would be a good horror movie. However, I found the introduction long and dragging. There were several “quiet” scenes where the characters were just being sad and depressed and not …
The Forbidden Kingdom movie
The Forbidden Kingdom starring kung fu masters Jackie Chan and Jet Li for the first time together on the same screen. When I first went into the movie theatre I think I overhyped the movie. After watching the whole movie in it’s entirety, I was actually disappointed …
Movie Reno 911
Reno 911 is an extraordinary ensemble of unknowns that team up to make the slapstick satire on the Reno Police Force a real winner. The use of lit up scenes in an amateurish presentation makes this show look like a home video, but do not be fooled. …
Movie Juno
This movie is about Juno, a teenage girl who found herself pregnant and trying to find means and ways to look for a father to adopt her baby when she gives birth. I love the acting of actress Ellen Page and if you want to have a clue …
Skinwalkers
The movie poster of this movie titled “Skinwalkers” doesn’t suggest much, but sure looks horrible enough to attract the horror pro customers like myself, sacrificing other shows to make this one.
I was disappointed really. It was cearly a low budget movie with little plot and less than encouraging fighting …
