Dead Poets Society (1989 Film)
The 1989 film, Dead Poets Society, was an emotional, rejuvenating yet sorrowfully disturbing tale that left me both impressed, yet extremely sad for the main characters. If you are a fan of an elaborate tale about being inspired to enjoy literature as well as life by “Seizing the day” …

Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 14
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 14 was a funny episode in its own way. It talks about falling in love at first sight. It would be hard to believe though that anyone would truly fall in love at first sight with a holodeck character though. However maybe in …

1408
For some time, I have been pretty fed up with the “horror” movies coming out. But I decided to take a chance on both Samuel L. Jackson and John Cusack, since they are both favorite actors of mine. At any rate, the story is fairly simple: …

It has been long time that I was able to watch such a wonderful movie. I don’t know whether most of them agree with it or no but I just love the movie. The way the camera rolls over the fights and scenes and comedy was more interesting and …

Family Guy - Blue Harvest
Star Wars adding to Family Guy. All I could think was when I first heard about this combination was it was going to be interesting how they could make it funny. Yes, other people have parody Star Wars before never line …
Bruno
I can still recall sitting in a packed cinema in 2006. Laughing uncontrollably at the hilarious antics of actor Sacha Baron Cohen’s infamous character Borat. So naturally I had hopes for Cohen’s new movie centred on gay Austrian model Bruno.
The opening scenes of Bruno shocked me. Yes, …
Faster with Dwyane Johnson( The Rock) movie

Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked (Movie 2011)

Traffickers, Movie
Korean thrillers rarely pull their punches, which can often make them deeply affecting - especially when they centre around some really dark subjects. Unlike popular Chinese and Japanese cinema exports there is typically much more favour for realism in Korean films, that only makes them more shocking.
Traffickers is concerned …

Erin Brockovich
Ok, I never would have thought that a movie about a slutty, foul mouthed unattractive mother of a litter of kids would have won an Oscar for anyone. Thank you academy for proving me wrong.
Erin Brockovich is down as my all time worst movie. If this woman …

Shooter movie
I decided to watch “Shooter” because I knew that Mark Wahlberg had the leading role in this film. I really like his acting skills especially after watching him in films such as “The Perfect Storm”, “The Italian Job”, “The Kingdom” and in Martin Scorsese’s “The Departed”. I must admit …

Heath Ledger’s A Knights Tale
