This weak my husband brought the CD of the movie titled Good boy Bad boy. This is a movie pasteurised in the national language of our country India that is in Hindi. The movie has got excellent comedy and the story of this movie is totally …
The Abyss
The Abyss is a James Cameron movie, the one which directed Titanic, and I just have one question for the guy. Is he so interested in the elements of deep sea..? That’s what I felt when I watched The Abyss. It sort of rhymes and intertwined and …
Superbad (R, 2007) movie
Seth Rogen is my new hero. After seeing how funny he was in “The Forty Year-Old Virgin”, and then how endearing he was in “Knocked Up”, I knew that “Superbad” would be a hoot. He wrote and had an acting role in the film, which …
Hairspray (movie)
I watched the movie Hairspray, the new movie and not the original, for kicks and grins. Was I disappointed! I suppose that I should have taken my own cues that I was not too impressed with the first version of Hairspray! Anyway, if you want to listen to pop …
Movie Love Wrecked
I honestly love watching Amanda Bynes movies, however “Love Wrecked” must be her worst movie since the story is not credible at all.
In “Love Wrecked” we see Amanda Bynes interpret the role of Jenny Riley who is totally crazy about a famous and popular rock star, Jason Master. …
Return of the Jedi movie
Some call this movie Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, but as I’ve said before, to me, it’s just plain Return of the Jedi. Once commonly thought of as just another sequel, once George Lucas actually wrote his other scripts, it became a rung in …
Gidget Goes Hawaiian movie
Two years after Sandra Dee captured the world as the girl midget known as Gidget, the character was back in Gidget Goes Hawaiian. Now honestly, this one is probably my favorite. There’s something about the storyline that I really loved. I don’t know if technically it’s …
Perfect Husband: The Laci Peterson Story (PG13, 2004)
I am a huge fan of true crime stories. Back in 2002, I followed this particular story fairly closely, and thought that something just wasn’t quite right about Scott Peterson and his lack of emotion. This movie, which I think featured on regular television, was …
Columbo: Undercover movie
In Columbo: Undercover, Ed Begley Jr guest stars as Irving Krutch, insurance investigator. We get 5 minutes of him in this offbeat role. He wore me out and he bore me at the same time. I lost interest in his shenanigans in his overdone storytelling. …
Ice Age 2
I’ll start out by saying Ice Age 2 is a good family movie and is certainly enjoyable.
However, after watching it this weekend, I felt very unsatisfied.
The first Ice Age was a unique and funny movie. The second one was poorly scripted and didn’t seem to have as much …
Fun With Dick And Jane (movie)
Fun With Dick And Jane is a hilarious movie about a married couple, Dick (played by the wonderful Jim Carrey) and Jane (played by Tea Leoni). Dick and Jane live in your typical upper middle class neighborhood in the suburbs of a large city. Their neighbors all have the …
As Good as It Gets, the movie (1997)
I don’t think I’d be wrong to say that the best thing about this movie is the dog. She is beautiful, original, and has reached heights of acting that even Jack Nicholson could not contact. And if it suddenly occurs to you for a moment that the grumpy writer melted …
Stone Cold (1991)

The original release date was May 17, 1991 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Crime/Drama and stars Brian Bossworth …
The Men Who Stare at Goats movie
I just watched this movie recently, and from the looks of it, I do not think I will ever watch it again. Honestly, I thought it was a bankable film because it starred George Clooney and so far, I have been quite satisfied with his films, until I …
Cry-Baby movie
Last week I watched a movie called Cry-Baby with my girlfriend as she’s found a fascination with Johnny Depp and this is I believe his first major role in a movie. To be very honest, my expectations for this movie were extremely low and I honestly didn’t expect …
Breakup movie
Not only is breaking up hard to do, but it’s hard to make a movie about something so intricately complicated as the ending of love. And yet, oftentimes the ending of a relationship doesn’t mean the ending of love. Seen in this movie is such an ending. The relationship …

An American Crime (R, 2007) movie

Movie: So I Married an Axe Murderer
Synopsis: A poet (Mike Myers) begins dating and eventually marries a local butcher but suspects she might be a serial killer.
What I liked about this movie: The plot of this 1993 film is clever and funny. You have a woman who seems perfect in every way. But, she is …
Nanny McPhee
Nanny McPhee starring Emma Thompson, Colin Firth, and a bunch of talented kid actors, was refreshing and entertaining to watch. Firth plays Cedric Brown, a father of seven and a widower who needs to find a wife - urgent! - or his austere Aunt Adelaide will withdraw her financial …

The Movie Madagascar
Madagascar was a movie that I could not wait to see. The trailers looked hilarious and it seemed to have good animation. I, as usual, waited for the movie to be available for rent before I saw it. I was really glad that I did not go and …

Invictus: Movie
I thought that Invictus was a good, well-made film but had it not been based on true events, I’m not sure I would have been interested.
Rugby is not a sport that I have any real interest in, but the history that this film shows I feel was important. Nelson …
Hide and Seek
Hide and Seek is an intense, well structured, mysterious and frightening movie. I watched this as I was a fan of Dakota Fanning, and found this movie to be spectacular.
Of course, there are many twists and things that confused me a little, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like …

Lars and the Real Girl (2007 Film)
The 2007 film, “Lars and the Real Girl”, started off by seeming to be a story about an socially awkward man who decides he wants love in the form of a doll. Just a little creepy was Ryan Gosling, who played Lars, and ordering a doll online in order …
The Fabulous Dorseys movie
As a child, I remember watching The Fabulous Dorseys, a 1947 motion picture, all the time. It was constantly on late night, and as a night owl, it was something I saw quite frequently. With the advent of cable, I haven’t seen it even once.
The Fabulous Dorseys …
Dude where’s my car?

Movie Major Movie Star
I didn’t expect to like “Major Movie Star”. I didn’t WANT to like it. I can’t stand Jessica Simpson, and usually I make a religious duty of avoiding all her music and movies - even her commercials!
I hate to admit it: “Major Movie Star” was just downright cute.
Simpson doesn’t …
Godzilla (2014) Movie
In 1998, Sony Pictures Entertainment and TriStar Pictures released the first American-made Godzilla movie. At the time, it was a big budget movie that incorporated extravagant special effects with a well-known Hollywood actor cast as the lead. The movie, for the most part, took the monster in a drastically …
The Lake House Movie
Trying to describe this movie is difficult because the “science” of it detracts from its warmth and the beauty of the love story between two people who had to be together in spite of the impossibilty of it. I watch it often and never tire of it.
A quirk in the …
21 Grams
The movie 21 Grams stars Sean Penn, Naomi Watts and Benicio De Toro. It focuses on their three characters and how their lives are interlinked.
Naomi Watts is fantastic as a recovered addict who lost her husband and kids to a car accident and is now struggling with sobriety. …
Total Recall 2070
I have watched most of the movies listed under Science fiction on Netflix, but had never seen Total Recall 2070, mostly because it was hard to imagine a sequel to a marginally above average movie without any of the cast returning, and made for television could be any good.
I …
The Glass Bottom Boat

Barry Lyndon Movie
Stanley Kubrick is one exception of a filmmaker who actually was just as popular with the audience and critics with almost all of his films. Despite that fact he was never a commercial director and always but the artistic vision before the entertainment. Barry Lyndon is slow, poetic retelling …

Bye Bye Birdie
I just adore Bye Bye Birdie and always have. It’s an upbeat, delightful movie musical with a cast that includes one of my favorites, Dick Van Dyke. Dyke’s good-natured demeanor make him perfect for this role as a budding musician with an overbearing mother and a very …
Elizabeth 1st: The Golden Age
Last evening I watched the movie Elizabeth 1st: The Golden Age.
I usually as a rule like period piece movies. However, I thought even though Cate Blanchett did a good job of acting the part of
Elizabeth the 1st and the costumes were extravagant, the movie was merely mediocre. Some …
