Even though War of the Worlds is a great movie and I enjoyed watching it very much, I was not happy with the fact that Tom Cruise played the leading role. I did not think the character of Ray Ferrier was portrayed as believable and may have been better …

I was expecting State of Play to follow a common story line for movies about political intrigue, but I was riveted to the screen for most of this movie. While some of the plot twists were predictable, the final one near the end was unexpected. I also dislike the …

I have been a Batman fan since I was about five years old. In that time, I’ve followed every Batman movie made, from the good to the really bad.
I enjoyed “Batman Begins,” but it didn’t capture my imagination is the way I hoped it would. …

Mary, Queen of Scots is a great movie about the Queen who held her ground and took on England and anyone else who dared defy her. Vanessa Redgrave plays Mary, and she is super in this role. I had to watch this movie in one of my history classes …

Garden State is one of my favourite films. I didn’t know quite what to make of the plot when I first read about it, but the beautifully written script and the well acted characters that you will just fall in love with make it a must see for independent …

I loved Molly Ringwald as the pitiful Andie in Pretty In Pink. Actually, I never watched the movie but loved the song by the Psychedelic Furs of the same name. There was a bit of buzz about Pretty In Pink, the movie, so I sat down for a viewing. …

The stories in which large muscles are combined with a brain of a bird often seem comical, but I feel that a deeper analysis can establish that there is a vast drama concealed in them. The audience members can be deeply mistaken if they think that the term “meathead” …

I have seen a lot of scary movies in my life but I have to say that 1408 was very possibly the scariest. There are few movies I can think of, certainly made recently, that have so effectively scared the willies out of me. I was actually …

When I learned that the funny trio of Jack Black, Ben Stiller and Robert Downey Jr. was realized, I couldn’t wait to see the film. Tropic Thunder is a morbid fascination with contemporary warfare. It does not present jokes in the obvious but it shoves a jokey momentum …

For those of you going through a midlife crisis (like me), you can easily identify with Eat Pray Love. It stars Julia Roberts, who after going through some difficult times, travels to Italy to eat, to India to pray, and finally to Bali to fall in love. It is …

The very first time I saw the actor Hayden Christensen was in the movie “Life as House” where he portrayed a disturbed and out of control teen named Sam. I watched the movie a total of five times after that as I fell in love with everything from …

Having grown up on comic books I was a excited about seeing the avengers. While I am no longer a comic book reader I like seeing the movies that mirror the comics that I read as a kid. I was really excited about The Avengers because this …

I am reviewing the movie, Young Sherlock Holmes, a Paramount Pictures Presentation done in 1985 with executive producer Steven Spielberg, and written by Chris Columbus, who was recently involved in the first two Harry Potter movies. This movie explores the story of what would happen if Sherlock Holmes …

This latest Martin Scorsese movie is definitely not his greatest creation but is a compelling watch for its grabbing suspense and magnificent plot. Shutter Island is a movie that has many wonderful performances and excellent direction. The setting of the island in midst of the ocean and intriguing ambience …

I watched the uninvited about a week ago and I really enjoyed it overall. I thought the movie was interesting, kept my attention, and had a good story behind the movie. My sister and my mother watched the movie as well, and they really enjoyed it. My sisters friend …

I admit I really love watching Amanda Bynes movies. “Sydney White” together with “What a Girl Wants” is simply my favourite. I like the work of this actress so much because she seems to be the Molly Rigward of our time.
In his film we see Amanda Bynes as Sydney …

I am not, and have never been a fan of the Stephenie Meyer series, especially since I consider myself as a fan of the classic vampire folklore. However, I was forced to see it when it was still showing in theatres since nothing else I was even a quarter …

I’m a Ben Stiller fan so I’ve seen almost all his films. I love him most in Meet the Parents and hated him in Zoolander. I must say that I didn’t really like his latest movie The Heartbreak Kid, a remake of a 1972 comedy. Directed by the Farrelly …

Truman with Jim Carrey and Ed Harris.
This was a different kind of movie that had me expecting the slapstick humor of which Jim Carrey built his career, but I was sadly disappointed.
There are few effective comedic actors in the industry and Carrey is one of them. …

The movie Titanic when it came out was a force to be reckoned with. I was about fifteen and all the girls at my school were going nuts over it. They even went to see it over eight times.
I myself was never that devoted but when I …

Just one word to sum up Eden Lake that I’ve watched: gross. I don’t think that Eden Lake is a true story and if there are, who would in their right mind breed kids like those fanatic murderers and torturers in this movie story. I get disgusted by …

In retrospect, I should have rented the Rated version of this DVD and left the unrated version on the shelf; but come to think of it, the rental store didn’t have the Rated DVD.
I remember thinking, the previews were cute with Jessica Alba being so klutzy and …

I was watching the movie Forrest Gump again for probably the third or fourth time. While not quite as good as I remember it when I originally saw it, I still think this has to be one of Tom Hanks better pictures.
The great thing about this movie is you …

I had never heard of this British film before, but it stars the new Bond girl, Gemma Arterton, and MacKenzie Crook from The Office fame, so I gave it a go. It’s a new film (2008) but, as with many British films, I haven’t seen it advertised anywhere so …

Eric Rohmer was one of the french new wave filmmakers back in the sixties, actually one of the most important ones, and he also kept making quality films long afterwards, even if I think his latest films haven’t been very interesting. Full Moon in Paris is about a woman …

When I first learned they were coming out with a live-action Transformers movie, my first thought was �Well, there�s another 80s TV show being ruined.�
From the previews, it looked like one of those films that would rely heavily on special effects and not offer much in terms of plot. …

Tarkovsky’s great masterpiece about three men going on a journey through “the zone”, which is a restricted area where the deepest wish of every man becomes reality.
Tarkovsky’s imagery is completely breathtaking and holds no resemblance to anything else. He’s totally unique in his artistry and is perhaps the closest …

The Matrix is one of the best movie I have seen in my entire life. The storyline is just awesome. And the acting is just great. My favorite character would of course have to be Neo. The whole concept of The Matrix just blew me away. I was so impressed …

Watching Ghost World is not quite like watching a chick flick. Although you see American Beauty actress Thora Birch and the sweet and innocent look actress, Scarlett Johansson star. This is kind of an exploration type of movie and I feel that each character in the story has …

Saw this really later than it came out in theaters but I have to said it was alot better than I had expected. I had never seen the tv show before so yes I know that my view was not based on the original tv show so everyone will …

So this is my third Tyler Perry movie in less than a month Why Did I Get Married? (I pray I never have to ask myself that question) was quite interesting dare I say my favourite movie from him since I’ve started watching his stuff.I wouldn’t give …

After the extraordinary success of “Rocky” sports movies almost invariably follow the stereotypical formula, with slight variations, determined by the taste of the author. In “Rush” opportunities for freely creative imagination are relatively limited as it recreates real events related to real people .
The 70s. The phones have …

The Werewolf’s Shadow (1970) (aka Night of Walpurgis and Werewolf vs The Vampire Woman)
Three cheers to Anchor Bay for releasing the most complete version of this Paul Naschy werewolf classic! It is a huge step up over the rotten, heavily edited VHS version BLOOD MOON that was released twenty …

This is definitely a must see movie if you a fan of gruesome horror. This is probably one of the bloodiest and most disturbing movie that I have seen in a long time!
It has a great story behind it. A pregnant woman loses her husband in a …

I watched the movie Jerry Maguire for about the third or fourth time last night and have to say, while a good movie, it could have been much better.
I liked the idea of a movie that focuses on the part of professional sports most films barely even mention; sports …
