The Hitcher is about a young man who travels through the american desert and has the bad luck of picking up a psychopathic hitcher. It’s just not any psychopath, but probably the most frightening and calculating ever, brilliantly played by Rutger Hauer. Actually, Hauer’s performance is what is most …

I love to watch a good Christmas movie, and goodness knows, I’ve watched a ton, but even so, I have to admit that this 2006 TV movie, Holiday Wishes, is just a so-so film that doesn’t really emit any emotions of consequence. It’s a filler with mostly mediocre …

I haven’t watched any Rocky movies in a while. But, I was up with my daughter the other night and came across Rocky IV.
This is still one of the better Rocky movies ever made; even when it is cut up for television broadcast. Watching Rocky take on a guy …

The Bank Job is a retread of the tried and tested, ‘caper film with likable London criminals’ formula, in the same vain as the Italian Job, but with more banking, and no Michael Caine.
Now, although it has no new ideas there are good things about this film, not the …

When one trilogy ends another one is always questioned. For the Terminator franchise it was easy to assume we didn’t see the last of Skynet. Even with a new set of actors, Salvation takes the franchise in a new direction, the future. Now we can see what is going …

I’m not a hugh Jean-Claude Van Damme fan so when I watched this movie, I was already thinking I wasn’t going to be impressed by it. I was right.
It was an OK movie but you could tell it was made in the late 80s when karate movies were becoming …

A film about the controversial english author and poet Oscar Wilde who had to flee his home country when he openly declared himself as a homosexual. Stephen Fry is absolutely perfect as the exceedingly clever Wilde, and the rest of the cast is also impressive, especially Jude Law. One …

The new Pete Travis film, “Vantage Point” hit number one in it’s first week in theaters. The film is not great, but is worth checking out. The idea behind the film is creative, I give it that much. The film opens with a typical “the …

Being a huge Alien and Predator fan, I had always wanted to see if a crossover movie could actually work between these two powerhouses. I remember a few years ago, before the plans for the current first AVP movie, hearing about how there were plans to make such a …

Bubbling Over with Ethel Waters from 1934 features Ethel Waters as Ethel Peabody. Also appearing is Hamtree Harrington as her husband, Samson. The whole beginning is on her feet with the broom and it’s highly entertaining. It actually surprised me quite a bit. Sometimes, simple …

I think the IMAX theatres are one of the best things the movie business has going for it. As we see declining sales these are going to be the things that bring people back into the theatre. I have been saying it for years–if you want people back you …

I was scrolling through the movies that were available for Netflix Instant Watch and was happy to come across the movie Rocky Horror Picture Show. Not having anything better to do this morning (my youngest daughter woke me up at 4 and I had two hours before I needed …

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 …

I really love this movie. Its a fresh role for Vin Diesel, I love how much he acted on this movie. I really love the comedy with all the military discipline he was trying to rule over the children. I really like it so much since its really very …

Reggie goes goth in Dead Like Me: Ashes to Ashes, and I’m not crazy about it because she ignores her precious golden retriever, JD. While it’s a temporary condition, it simply turns me off. I don’t like animals suffering in any way due to human eccentricities.

Little miss sunshine is a really family oriented movie. If it did not have so much profanity, it probably would have been really successful as a mainstream movie. A dysfunctional family is coming together going on a road trip because the little girl wants to be in a little …

Reality Bites reminded me quite a bit of The Blair Witch Project. Now that makes me smile because The Blair Witch Project hooked me from the start and made me think the movie was real. Reality Bites, on the other hand, did not make me think the same thing, …

When asked Will Smith on what this story was all about, he said he couldn’t really tell as the narration would give away the story itself! I was really curiuos and knowing Will to be a very good actor, I watched this in anticipation.
I honestly didn’t get the …

Can Hollywood, typically creating things for amusement purposes only, create art? To make something of this nature, a chief must come up to it in a most detailed manner, because of the flimsiness of the process. Such an intimidating task requires an tremendously capable artist with an indisputable managerial …

For the third part in the Jackass movie series, Johnny Knoxville and his crew are ready to be stupid in 3D. Ah yes, 3D, the current crazy that doesn’t seem to be dying anytime soon. But that is fine with me because 3D gave us a new Jackass movie …

Wow, the tension in this movie is unbelieveable. One of the 8 Films To Die For, horrfest 2006, films that didn’t make it into the movie theaters. Stars Mimi Rogers. About a girl who has a fear of being in cars, due to a fatal car accident involving …

Recently, I tried out Blockbuster’s Online Rentals, and it was an interesting experience.

Sean Connery’s James Bond takes a vacation from his usual European hot stops and turns native in this movie set in Japan. It doesn’t have the elements that made movies like “Goldfinger” and “Thunderball” great, but it isn’t a bad entry into the film series.
I’m a fan of James …

Oh, how I wanted to like this movie! It’s got an impressive cast, including Simon Pegg, Kristin Wiig, Jane Lynch, Jeffrey Tambor, Jason Bateman, even a cameo by Steven Spielberg! Casting Seth Rogen as the wise-cracking alien wasn’t my problem though. I felt that this was …

Here is another example of why Hollywood should stay as far away from comic book remakes as possible. This movie is so bad, it makes ‘bad’ seem like a candy bar. At first when the movie started, I was all geared up to enjoy Hulk style destruction similar to …

I love Ella Enchanted. There’s a beautiful cast for this movie and they consist of Minnie Driver, Hugh Dancy, Anne Hathaway especially and many more.
