Movie: Batman Begins
“Batman Begins” is an epic 2005 film by Christopher Nolan, and starring Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Katie Holmes, and Gary Oldman. This is a spectacular movie that did much to erase the memory of the horrible Batman movies of the 1990s.
Pros: Nolan obviously loves the …
Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011 science fiction movie)
I actually delayed watching this movie for years for two reasons. The first was that I honestly didn’t think that it would be very good. I mean, how could a film about the other set of primates be that interesting? The second reason was that I’m slightly afraid of those …

American Psycho, movie
Based on a book by the same name, “American Psycho” is more than just you’re average thriller or psycho film; it’s a snap shot of the money and corruption running rampant in New York during the 1980’s. Christian Bale puts in an immense amount of effort, and even if …
The World is Not Enough Blu-ray
Pierce Brosnan’s third outing as James Bond is one of the weakest in the series, with another ‘out there’ villain, played by Robert Carlisle and a ridiculous plot that makes ‘The World is Not Enough’ simply unbearable to sit through. Let me be clear: I hate this movie. …

Predator 2
It’s rare that I enjoy a sequel more than I enjoy the original and it is even less common when the original is good, but this is an exception. Predator is a movie all about action. There are some smart points and probably some social commentary though I didn’t …
Hours (thriller movie)
“Hours” is set in New Orleans, during the August 2005 hurricane Katrina. Once again, Paul Walker, our capable and very likeable action idol, delights his audience with another one of his absorbing thrillers. This time he personifies a rousing image of paternalistic dedication.
We first meet Nolan Hayes, characterised by …
This Is Spinal Tap
This Is Spinal Tap is a silly movie about a band based in the 1970s. You can’t watch This Is Spinal Tap and take it seriously! I’ve ran across a couple of people who actually thought Spinal Tap was a real band. They are not! What they are is …

I was very pleased with this movie ! It had Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher; pardon me if I got the spellings wrong, I’m too lazy tonight to check on them. These are usually two hollywood actors who make my stomach churn, but this movie was a delight ! …

Movies like this make me shake my head and wonder, ‘What were they thinking??’ I am not alone in this, as I see, in regards to this particular movie: I saw ‘The Money Pit’ listed among 10 worse movies done in the 1980s in one online article. I had …
Alibi.com movie
French comedies are always a great choice, if you want to watch something light, something funny, yet not something dumb. I watched a ton of those and I think I can distinguish a good comedy from a bad one and this Alibi.com is a pretty good movie to watch on …

A Beautiful Life Truly Beautiful
If anything, “Life is Beautiful” was the first movie that made me cry. I had watched “Schindler’s List” and other such movies about the Holocaust before, but I never had had the experience of watching such a heartwrenching movie, ever. The undying love of a father for his young …
Sahara movie
After the defeat in Tobruk in 1942, Joe Gunn leads his troops through the desert of Sahara to get away from Rommel’s army and reach his allied forces.
This film is completely lacking all form of intelligence. I doubt it’s even historically correct, because everything that happens seem so over-dramatized …
The Dark Crystal Movie
I grew up with “The Dark Crystal”. It was one of my favorite movies then, and it’s one of my favorite movies now.
Jim Hensen brought something unique to the world, with his creativity, imagination, and abundance of talent. He left his mark, and thankfully didn’t …

Wedding Crashers movie
I’ve been getting a little burnt out on Owen Wilson comedies so I didn’t know what to think when I finally watched Wedding Crashers for the first time. It was hillarious.
Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn make a great team, pretending to be related to the wedding parties so they …
DVD DEATHDREAM (1972)
If ever a cult movie deserved a special edition DVD it is DEATHDREAM (AKA DEAD OF NIGHT), a chilling horror film about a vietnam soldier, mistakenly declared dead, surprisingly returns home.
Well, maybe not mistakenly dead. He is dead. He’s an unliving vampire-zombie who needs blood to survive and, …
The Mist
Stephen King movies are usually hit or miss. Some are great, others are kind of dumb.
The Mist falls into the former more than the latter. But, it still is flawed.
The great thing about The Mist is the fact you really never know what is going on until the very …

I saw Children of Men twice in the movie theaters and I bough the DVD. This movie stars Clive Owen, Julianne Moore and Michael Caine. It takes place in the not too distant future where people have become sterile. Clive Owen gets caught up in a situation to save …
Eat, Pray, Love Movie (2010)

From Paris With Love (2010) movie
Haven’t seen John Travolta take to the screen in a film that I have liked lately but this one was pretty entertaining. Nothing special just a good old fashion entertainment action film.
I do like the storyline it is quite interesting, with a twist I did not expect so …
Pride and Prejudice, 2005
I’ve just returned from seeing the new “Pride and Prejudice” (2005, starring Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet and Matthew MacFadyen as Mr. Darcy). What can I say. I didn’t expect much, and therefore wasn’t very disappointed. Keira Knightley is cute (perhaps a little too cute for Elizabeth) and pretty …
It’s Your Move Movie

My wife and I ended up watching some Christmas movies the other day, including National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation; a movie that apparently has been out for 20 years now (making me feel old considering I remember it being at the theater).
Of the other Lampoon’s Vacation movies, this one is …

A family is movie to a suburban area (Mother, Father, Daughter) where on their journey they mistakenly take a wrong turn and end up in a fantasy world. This is where the daughter’s adventures begin as …
It Runs in the Family (2003)
The movie is starring Kirk and Michael Douglas, as well as Cameron Douglas. This movie was more of a family reunion for the actors themselves, rather than entertainment or movie of great value. Despite all the publicity and the positive exposure, in my experience, it is one hard-to-watch …
13 Ghosts (movie)
13 Ghosts is a movie about 13 Ghosts in a special house, trapped away until…yeah, that’s the clencher…until someone and something comes along to provoke a very special event. 13 Ghosts was really hard for me to watch because it moved so quickly and the ghostly visions were here …
Little Shots of Happiness (R, 2000) movie
I thought I would like this movie more than I did. The filming is extremely grainy. And while that might have added to the authentic feel, I found it intrusive. Additionally, Frances is quite a boring lady, even after she decides to leave her …
