Movies Reviews
Chef-2014, Drama, Comedy Movie
The main word I can say subsequent to watching this is “Exceptional”. Jon Favreau is only a stickler in each field. He has written this movie, directed it and afterward nailed it as the lead performing artist. Subsequent to Iron Man 1 and 2, he proceeds with his splendid work. …
Final Destination Movie
When I saw the preview of this movie…it looked interesting, when I saw the movie…it was awesome, when I decided to buy this movie, it was a great idea. How often do you see your own future and be horrified by it, plus have the courage to make it …
Hot Chick movie
Hot Chick is a very funny movie and I was literally in splits througout the time I was watching the movie. I have always been enjoying the movies in which Rob Schneider acts and I am a great admirer of his acting skills and comic timing. This movie is …
Hotels for Dogs Movie
I think this is a really cute wholesome movie; it features a lot of dogs and if you’re a dog lover (or an animal lover) you should watch this, other than that, if you’re not and you can’t appreciate loving pets, then don’t watch. This movie features Emma Roberts …
The Women movie
When I agreed to take my wife to see the movie “The Women” my first thought was “what have I gotten myself into?” However, after watching it with her, I will admit, it wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be.
While obviously a classic chick flick, I found …
Step Brothers
I watched Step Brothers on DVD the other night and I was laughing so crazy! I do not realize that a movie starring just these two actors, namely Dale, acted out by John C. Reilly and Brennan, acted out by Will Ferrell could really be hand-clapping funny and fun. …
The Lakehouse (2006) Movie
Life is only travelled once. Today’s moments may be tomorrow’s memories. The movie Lakehouse depicts the story of two people who fell in love through a time difference of two years– a past and a future. Alex (Keannu Reeves) and Kate (Sandra Bullock) proved to the world that …

Thismovie falls in the genre of Drama/Thriller and stars Sir Anthony Hopkins as Ethan Powell, Cuba Gooding …
Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs
Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs was better than the first two movies, in my opinion. Granted, I haven’t seen the other two in a while now, so my opinion could change if I watched the first two movies again. I watched Ice Age 3 in 3D, but …
The Shining
Steven King’s The Shining is probably the most horrifying movie ever made. I just love this film. The Shining scares me till this day. And I get freaked out by it every time I see it. This is a movie that has scared people for years.
I think Jack Nichalson did …
Movie Shutter (2008)
I watched only half of the portion on the Thai horror version of Shutter and didn’t complete it because I got a bit bored. But the 2008 version of Shutter really got me out of my mind scared. I decided to give watching it a shot although I …
Arachnophobia movie
I was trying to find something to watch last night while sitting up with our youngest daughter and ended up putting on the movie Arachnophobia.
Big mistake. And, not because it is a horrible film; because it kept me up half the night thinking there were creepy crawlies on me.
I …
All The King’s Men movie
“All The King’s Men” is a great movie, even though most critics things otherwise. The great assets of this movie are a great cast of actors and a great story based on the novel written by Robert Penn Warren. It is a true pity that Hollywood didn’t give this …
Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell)
Bear with me, because I have to type these 3 names because they are amazing. I watched Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell) the other day and it was super hilarious. There can never be a movie close to it, except for movies starring …
Eagle Eye
I’m usually not a big fan of movies that play the whole 1984 card and focus on “Big Brother.” And, I’ll be the first to admit the idea of a computer independently controlling people’s lives is something out of the 80s (think the movie War Games)and still a bit …
I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry
Adam Sandler’s newest movie.As you have noticed from the title,the movie is about two guys that will eventually marry under some circumstances.Chuck and Larry are two firemen and they are best friends.Although friends they are total opposites.Chuck(Adam Sandler) is a total womanizer (with no guardian angel to guard his …
Movie Bruce Almighty
I like to watch movies and one of my favorite actors is Jim Carry
He can play almost any type of roll and you will enjoy him. We watched the movie called Bruce ALmight the other dayand in this move it also starred Morgan Freemond. I enjoy watchin him act …
Stranger than Fiction
When we rented the movie Stranger than Fiction, we expected to get a great comedy. After all, you can’t go wrong with Will Ferrell. Unfortunately, in this case, we did.
Stranger than Fiction isn’t a bad movie, in fact it was pretty good. But, it definitely wasn’t as funny as …

Orphaned at a young age, Peter Parker (Toby Maguire) lived in Queens, New York with his loving Aunt May (Rosemary Harris) and Uncle Ben (Cliff Robertson). Peter leads the life of a normal …
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban: The Movie
I have always maintained that the best books to be made a movie are the fantasy books (witness Lord of the Rings the movie). I was eagerly awaiting the third movie Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban because I wanted to see how well the new casts such …
Total Drama Island
When I first saw the cartoon “Total Drama Island” advertising on Cartoon Network, I could only think that it was quite an interesting plot and setting for a cartoon. I had never actually seen a reality show cartoon except for the “Drawn Together” series which aired for some time …
Dirty Dancing
How often does a movie come along that you can watch it 5 times in one day and not ever get tired of it? I think the music is what makes this movie so good. And of course, the dancing. And Patrick Swayze. Oh my goodness, he is gorgeous …

Pulse (movie)
I sat down and watched this movie with my whole family. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It was original and unique, not like a lot of other movies out today. It had it’s own storyline to it. There was hardly any gory parts in the movie, if …
The A-Team movie
The word of the day was skeptical. That’s how I felt about the 2010 theatrical film, The A-Team. Based on the TV series that starred the late George Peppard, Dirk Benedict, Dwight Schultz, and Mr. T, I was certain I’d hate this movie. It’s not that …
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is the sequel to the critically and commercially successful movie, Miss Congeniality, starring Sandra Bullock. Sandra Bullock played the lead role in Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous as well but the movie fails to impress the viewers who have expectations from the …
Dracula: Dead And Loving It
This is Mel Brooks’s version of Count Dracula story, released in 1995. All I can say is funny, funny, FUNNY! Just thinking of it makes me smile. Leslie Nielsen as the imposing but a little clumsy Dracula who keeps messing things up, Peter MacNicol as an unsuspecting London solicitor …
Because I said so
I watch ‘Because I said so’ with my mom, which was nice since I realized that my mom wasn’t that bad comparing to the people out there. The movie is about a mom and her three daughters’ and how the first two is happily married while the last one …
Terminator Salvation
This is the 4th installment of the terminator franchise. I have always loved all the terminator series specially California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger doing the part of the terminator. I was really not sure what to expect with new Terminator movie since Arnold is no longer part of the …

Hook is a 1991 fantasy film starring Robin Williams. It based on the children’s story Peter Pan..It takes some element from teh original story and creates an entirely different story.It is about a man named Peter Panning who is a ruthless lawyer.He has two kids, a boy and a …
Insidious: Chapter 3 (supernatural horror movie)
Insidious: Chapter 3 wasn’t on my list of horror movies to watch because I didn’t get the impression that it would be very good especially after watching the trailer. As usual, someone I knew recommended it to me anyway and I decided to try it. It turns out that I …
The Devil Wore Prada
Like most movies I have an interest in seeing, this one disappeared from the cinemas before I had a chance to see it. I enjoyed it even though it contained many of the things I mentioned in my review of “Little Miss Sunshine” as things that could be …
Movie: Stan Helsing
I ended up watching the movie Stan Helsing Friday night because I was in the mood for a comedy and figured this would be one of those films that was so terrible, it couldn’t help but be funny.
Well, it turns out I was right about the movie being terrible. …
Open Range (2003)
Once again, Kevin Costner has delivered unto us, the viewing public, another almost three hour feature length film based in the days of the old west. I guess it is safe to say that he loves this time period and he enjoys getting all submerged in a world where …
House Of 1000 Corpses
The film was completed in 2000, and finally released in 2003, written and directed by Rob Zombie and starring Bill Mosley, Sherri Moon Zombie, and other lesser known actors. The film is extremely dark, violent, and shocking, it’s not to many movies that make a person feel sick and …
30 Days of Night
As far as vampire flicks go, the movie 30 Days of Night has a lot of potential. However, it falls a bit short.
When I saw the previews for the movie, I just had to see it. After all, what can be scarier than a group of vampires visiting an …
Waitress 2007 movie
Director: Adrienne Shelly. Featuring: Keri Russell, Nathan Fillion and Jeremy Sisto.
The waitress is great and funny movie with a big heart. It is blend between comedy, a satire and a diary. Although the films deals with a serious subject matter it is told in an easy and entertaining way. …
Erin Brockovich
If you want a movie that embodies the term “girl power”, it is definitely the feature film Erin Brockovich. Other than it being the movie that won Julia Roberts an Oscar for Best Actress in 2001, it narrates the life story of the eccentric but street-smart main character …
Monster in Law
“Monster in Law” marks Jane Fonda’s return on the big screen after 15 years absent from the movie industry, and may I add what a return. Fonda interprets the role of a mother obsessed in breaking up her son’s relationship with his present girlfriend, Charlie.
During an interview, Fonda …

This movie crosses …
The Last Legion
The Last Legion is a must watch DVD movie starring the ever sweet and sexy Bollywood actress, Aishwarya Rai and also the handsome Colin Firth. What is the story about, you might wonder, and how on earth a Bollywood actress had been featured in this movie…?
Well, that’s not important. …
DOMINION,movie
This movie begins in Poland, when the German’s had invaded the Country. The start of this movie may truly rattle you, and I know that you will be jolted when certain things happen, so quickly, that you will find it hard to realize that this is how things just …
One for the Money (movie)
A couple years ago before one of my relatives died, she recommended that I read the Janet Evanovich novel “One for the Money” as she claimed that I would enjoy it. I was hesitant at first since at the time I was more of a horror fan and we …
The Elephant Man (1980)
Released in 1980, and directed by David Lynch, this movie can undoubtedly be defined as one of the saddest movies of all time. I’ve only seen it twice, and I don’t really plan to see it more, at least not for some time. I’m easily caught up in good …
Mr Arkadin movie
What could have been a major masterpiece by Orson Welles was severely cut down by the production company as they thought it was “too boring” and to mr Welles’ devastation he found yet another of his works butchered and lost forever. It was the exactly same thing with The …
Juno — the movie
Juno was a movie released a few years ago. It followed the story of a pregnant teenager, from the time she found out she was pregnant via a pregnancy test she bought in a local drugstore, through her decision to put the baby up for adoption, and then …
Cast Away (Tom Hanks, 2000)
Directed by Robert Zemeckis, who usually does a good job, and starring Tom Hanks. Usually Tom does a good job too, but this movie didn’t work for me. I didn’t like it for many reasons, but it wasn’t the actors or the director at fault: it …
Movie The Promotion
This movie was a great character sketch of two guys going after the same promotion at a grocery store. The humor was fantastic; I love the kind of humor where a joke starts at the beginning of the movie and it plays throughout the movie in unexpected places. The …
Jesse Stone: Night Passage movie
From 2006, Tom Selleck returned to TV with Jesse Stone: Night Passage, a movie I’d just as soon as have not seen. I’ve now seen two of these movies, and they have to be among the most depressing productions known to mankind. What possible thrill did Selleck …
