Take the Lead-Antonio Banderas
I went to this movie last night with my friends. I think it was worth seeing, but perhaps just a rental. It was pleasant, with some funny scenes, and the way the scene moved back and forth with the dancing and the music, especially at the beginning, was great.
The …
Hall Pass (2011 Movie)
Starring Owen Wilson and Jason Sudeikis, “Hall Pass” is about two guys who get to take a week off from marriage, no strings attached. After watching the trailer, I realized that movies like this are why I get so mad at the male population. A week off marriage? How …

Knight and Day Movie (2010)

9 (animated movie, 2009)
Nine is an animated movie set in a post-apocalyptic world in which machines have taken over and killed all human beings. If this concept is not sound terribly original. It isn’t. However, the movie is entertaining. Tim Burton directed it. Some of the star-studded include Elijah Wood and Martin …
District 9 movie
Sci-fi movies for me are so formulaic. I watch one sci-fi movie, I can say that I have watched almost 90% of all the sci-fi flicks that were released in the past years because of it. Sci-fi movies with aliens are more predictable and repetitive. Aliens terrorize the human …
X-Men Movie
X-Men was an excellent movie if you went with no expectations and had never seen the cartoon or read the comic. However, they changed a lot from both comic and show in the movie and after seeing the movie for the first time, I was infuriated at how they …

Netflix Mail Movie Rentals
Netflix is the best way to rent movies. I am actually suprised that video stores are still in business. They offer several different plans to fit your needs. The most affordable plan is their unlimited plan, which allows you to rent one DVD at a time and costs $9 …

Meet the Spartans
Normally, I like movies that spoof other movies; everything from Scary movie to pretty much anything made by Mel Brooks. But, after watching Meet the Spartans last night, I no longer can say I like all movies in that genre.
The thing about Meet the Spartans is it had the …
Kung Fu Panda
I saw ‘Kung Fu Panda’ a few days ago. The first thing that hit me as soon as the movie started was the awesome graphics. This animated movie brings together Jack Black(Po), Dustin Hoffman(master shifu), Angelina Jolie (Tigress), Ian McShane (Tai Lung), Jackie Chan (Monkey), Lucy Liu (Viper), Seth …
John Wick, Movie
I love revenge movies. They appeal to our baser instincts and when they’re done well they strike us at our emotional core. John Wick is a superb revenge flick that oozes style and menace.
From the outset this film makes its intentions very clear. It is light on dialogue and …
Movie Legend
I am reviewing the movie called Legend. It stars Tom Cruise(Jack), Mia Sara(Lilly), and Tim Curry as the Lord of Darkness.
The story is about good and evil competing against each other: a classic. A movie about a young girl’s innocence.
I think of this as a childrens’ movie but …
Movie: “Bolt”
Armed with a unique plot, beautifully colorful animation, and endearing characters, “Bolt” was an absolute delight. I enjoyed every adorable minute of it.

Dead Silence (R, 2007) movie

After Dark Horror Fest: Crazy Eights

The Back Up Plan 2010 movie

Employee of the Month
I saw previews for Employee of the Month a few months ago but never made an effort to rent it. It just didn’t look that good.

Like most movies that take place …
