Movies Reviews
Bloodsport (movie )
While I like some action movies, I generally do not like those that include the actors Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Segal since I have noticed that while these movies are usually jam packed with action scenes, they also usually have the same cliché characters and these action movies …

Analyze This (1998), movie
American comedies have become part of a cliche after the 90s, the main plot being based simply on a failed relationship or some other unsatisfying cheesy drama. What I can claim to be a good comedy with cleverly conceived humour is ‘Analyze This’, the 1998 movie starring Billy Crystal, …
Vampire in Brooklyn,1995 movie
I guess the problem with this movie is that it cannot decide what it is: a horror or comedy. It is not scary enough to for the former and not funny enough for the latter. Eddie Murphy is playing the main character (and Eddie is not exactly vampire material, …
Sphere (Movie)
Sphere is a science-fiction thriller which was released in 1997, starring Sharon Stone, Dustin Hoffman and Samuel L Jackson. I remember seeing things about it when it came out and had a rough idea what it was about, but never actually watched it till now. The strong cast are …

Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds (2005)
The Steven Spielberg remake of the famous War of the Worlds 1953 movie was downright disappointing. The movie borders on awful, and really doesn’t come through. Despite the good cast, it was poorly directly and badly written. While the original movie was inspiring and filled with tension, …
Little Mermaid 2
One of my favorite cartoon movies from Disney is The Little Mermaid and when I heard that it has a part 2, I’m one of those who lined up in theaters just to watch it.
Little Mermaid 2 is another adventurous tale of our favorite mermaid, Ariel, but this …

The X-Files: I Want to Believe

Movie A walk to remember
I must admit that I truly enjoy watching great romance movies. The once I truly like I watch them endless times. “A walk to remember” is a great movie based on a true story.

Slumdog Millionaire
I am not a person who loves watching movies. However, the euphoria that was created by the release of Slumdog millionaire led me to watch this movie. I have to say that I love watching the movie. Yes, I have many reservations about the plot and the way film …
Ace Ventura, Pet Detective (movie)
Call me easily amused, but I sincerely think that Ace Ventura, Pet Detective is one of the most hillarious movies of all times. Jim Carey is just outstanding in this flick, and basically utilizes every funny bone in his body to put on a powerfully amusing movie. …

The Proposal movie
I am reviewing the 2009 movie, The Proposal, starting Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White.
The plot to this movie is quite simple. Sandra Bullock plays a mean, severely unlikeable boss, who, when threatened with deportation, blackmails her assistant into pretending that they are married. There’s only …
2 Guns movie
I was just browsing through the On Demand Section provided from my TV Provider, I came across the title “2 Guns” My first thought was it wasn’t going to be a very good movie, but hey never judge something by it’s cover right? So I read the description of …

Time Changer
Wow, what can you say about this little “masterpiece” of Christian cinema? The premise is pretty simple: a man from the 19th century travels through time to the beginning of the 21st century and is amazed by how immoral and corrupt and violent the world is. His …
Palooka movie
I’m not sure what I want to say about 1934’s Palooka, which I don’t think I’ve seen before, but can’t be sure. At the head of the cast list was Jimmy Durante as Knobby Walsh. I like Durante, except for when he gets over nutty. There’s …
The movie Monsters Inc.
I think that like most people as a young child I was afraid of monsters. I remember lying in bad feeling so afraid because I thought that monsters were going to pop out of my closet and eat me.
It was because of those memories that when Monsters Inc …

Vantage Point
Vantage Point is a movie that I had watched a few weeks back which I think had no plot whatsoever. Indeed if you see the title, it is sort of misleading and you would think that it is a boring movie. But it turned out to be a …
Franklyn, British film by Gerald McMorrow
The question I asked myself while watching Franklyn on blu-ray was how do these four stories come together? The back of the case suggests that it all comes together at some point but I am not seeing it. Does Franklyn have bull shit written all over it or is …

Monkey business movie

The Kingdom movie
This movie started off kind of slow and boring in the very beginning. When you get into the movie though it is really good. It kept me interested in what was going on. You do kind of have to pay attention to make sure you understand it all, …
After Dark Horror Fest: Borderland
Borderland is a bad movie, plain and simple. I can usually find some redeeming qualities in a movie, but this isn’t one of them. I think the real problem is that it was released as one of the films in the After Dark Horror Fest, but it isn’t a …
Land of the Dead movie
This is the fourth film in George A Romero’s zombie film series (supposed to be a trilogy, but..). It follows the films Night of the living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978) and Day of the Dead (1985). My own personal favorite is the first film, mostly because …
Transporter 3 (2008)
The third time is definitely not the charm as in relates to the Transporter franchise, they should have stooped at the first one, but it seems that everyone sees the need to make a trilogy these days. This time around, Frank played by Jason Statham, is accidentally thrown into …
“Color Me Blood Red” (1965 Film)
During the early to mid ’60s, renowned horror film writer/director Herschell Gordon Lewis created the “splatter” sub-genre of horror.

Movie: Precious
I have seen advertisements for the movie Precious in the past and, from what I saw of them, I figured it would be a movie I would have absolutely no interest in. That’s why it never made my Netflix Queue.
However, my wife told me she wanted to watch it …

A Few Good Men movie

Sgt. Bilko
Sgt. Bilko with Steve Martin, Dan Akroyd, Phil Hartman, and Glenne Headly.
I remember the old black and white TV show with Phil Silvers in the role of Sgt. Bilko. It was one of my favorites and had a great supporting cast. Trying to stretch …
Troops movie
A parody of both Star Wars and Cops. On the desert planet of Tatooine, a team of stormtroopers is having a tough time keeping up law and order. It doesn’t sound like a great idea and it certainly doesn’t look like it either. Parodies tend to exaggerate too much …
Scrooged (1988)
A wealthy, ruthless TV executive is the focus of this modern day remake of the classic tale of the story of Scrooge. As the story goes, this person is cold hearted and career driven to the point that no one likes to be around him yet alone work with …
