Scary Movie 4
Scary Movie is one of those movie series where its really hard not to laugh. The only problem with these series is that each sequel ends up repeating jokes, and slowly loses the audience. The big thing with scary movie 4 is that this is not true. The begging …
Confession of shopaholic movie
I saw this movie yesterday and its really very fun movie. It actully shows the mindset of the one who is addidcted by the disease called shopping. So many people has got such disease that they cant stop their urge to shop more and more, though they have got …

Men In Black
The original Men In Black was an excellent comedic action movie and a welcome twist on the all to common genre of alien movies. The comedy throughout this movie was real comedy, not the non-stop attempts at slapstick or idiotic humor that have begun to plague comedies as of …
The Ballad of Josie
Doris Day and Peter Graves star in The Ballad of Josie, a western more or less about a widowed woman who strives to keep her ranch going after the death of her husband. Though most of the town is against her, she perseveres, with the assistance and support, …
Movie “Dreamcatcher” (2003)
I am so in love with netflix and the ability to watch movies and tv instantly. Since I don’t have to wait for a movie to come in the mail I am much more willing to try out a movie I have never heard of before. This …
Big Momma’s House (2000)
Big Momma’s House, directed by Raja Gosnell is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for crude humor including sexual innuendo, and for language and some violence. The original release date was Hune 2, 2000 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Comedy/Crime …
The Horror Within
When I decided to watch the movie The Horror Within the other night, it was with the expectation it would be a low-budget, cheesy horror flick.
I was partially right. It was low budget and cheesy but it was more of a comedy than a horror movie.
Let’s face it, whenever …
Blade Trinity movie
Just when you think they could not do better than the original and the sequel…they came out with Trinity…BAD IDEA. It’s nice that they wanted to bring the first, the original vampire into the mix of things, but, they did a real terrible job with his portayal. Dracula (Drake) …

An animated telling of the tale about the team of man and sled dog combination that helped to bring much needed medicine to a remote location. People in the area start getting sick and the only route to get the medicine to make them better is by race to …
The Holiday
After watching a bunch of ‘chick flicks’ I actually liked, I figured there would be no harm in renting The Holiday. Boy was I wrong.
This has got to be the longest, most boring film I’ve seen this year.
The movie is about two women, one American and one British, who …
The Object of My Affection
I found a certain similarity between the movies “The Object of My Affection” and the movie released in 2000 “The Next Best Thing”. Both of these movies tackle the issue of gay people involved in bringing up children and, unfortunately both of them, are not impressive movies.
What was lacking …
Craig Gillespie’s Mr. Woodcock, movie
I cannot say that I have always been a huge Billy Bob Thorton or Seann William Scott fan, but I did like Bad Santa and my husband enjoyed American Pie so we decided that we would rent this particular movie to watch one night after the kids went to …
Premonition
I was prepared to really hate this film. I had read reviews. And so many people (including critics) had nothing but weak things to say about this film. I think it’s because Sandra Bullock has never been taken seriously as an actress. Her quirky ways, …
The Incredible Hulk (2008)
This weekend I finally made it to the cinema to see The Incredible Hulk! I got to admit, I did not hear about this movie till a few months ago when I was talking about another Marvel movie with my friend. I was quite surprised that this movie did …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 28 starts off with Al and Gluttony going into where Father is. Then Gluttony’s stomach explodes as Ed, Envy and Ling emerge from inside the false Truth Gate. Secrets are revealed and there’s a huge surprise that I won’t give away, but …
The Book of Eli (2010) movie
I’m a big fan of any movie with Denzel Washington in it and this one lived up to what I expected exactly.
The story is somewhat complicated but contains simplicities in it. Eli (Washington) is the keeper of a very wanted book which turns out to be a copy …
Redbox red movie vending machine
Redbox, for those that don’t know what it is, are those big red movie vending machines that can be found at most Wal-Marts, Walgreens, gas stations and McDonalds. They’re basically everywhere. Sometimes you’ll find two of them in one location if they get a lot of business. Whoever invented …
French Cancan movie filmed 1954
Jean Renoir is without question considered one of the most significant directors of all time. He was engagingly good spirited; and consequently an entertaining personage. Lists of films deserving notice by the Director include: “Rules of the Game” and; “Grand Illusion”. Naturally, the preceding two …
High School Musical
High School Musical is a hit. It took the nation by storm and is now a popular movies for the family to enjoy. The movie is about a group of teenagers accepting how they are. Gabriella is a nerdy newcomer to the school and made friends with the popular …
Hot Fuzz
This movie was fantastic, it had me chuckling the whole way through. From the same team that gave us Shaun of the Dead, this takes the life of Police Officer Nicholas Angel and delights with a send up of American police movies and the British country whodunits. …
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004 movie)
For a movie that generated so much attention…it sure is boring. I tried to watch the movie straight tp the end, but it was hopeless. I couldn’t keep up with this movie as it didn’t have that staying power that a viewer looks for. It was long and drawn …
Jumanji (movie)
When I was much younger, I had a sleepover with one of my aunts and she rented a video of a movie that she thought I would like to see. It was a few years after Jumanji was released and I never heard of the movie before that night, …

The Far Pavilions,1984 movie
The Far Pavilions, 1984, mini-series, is based on the novel by M.M. Kaye. I have one complaint about the movie: several scenes are done in the dark, leaving you to guess what is taking place. Other than that, the movie is good. The story is about Ashton Pelham-Martyn, or …
Knocked Up
Another R-rated flick with the title setting the tone and giving the potential viewer a pretty good idea of what to expect. A one night stand results into pregnancy; the girl, Alison, decides to keep the baby despite it threatening her career and despite her mother’s advice to have …

Rango Movie
I looked forward to going to see Rango for probably three reasons. Number one of course was getting to hang out with my nephew and secondly I was looking forward to the movie because it looked good in the trailers. The third reason? I was looking …
Rogue movie
I am a fan of monster stories that involve big fish or crocodiles. I was a teenager when Jaws first hit our movie screens and I still think that this kind of movie can be one of the scariest and dare I say it - entertaining of all the …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.2: Gnothi Seauton
Well, to my discovery, it seems that this TV show follows an alternate timeline after “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” and has nothing to do with “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” (even though “Terminator: Salvation” does). That’s good and bad in my opinion, but that’s a whole other story …
Two Came Back (1997 Film)
The 1997 Lifetime TV Movie, “Two Came Back” was a large disappointment. Starring a young Melissa Joan Hart and Jonathan Brandis, this film was a serious flop and didn’t do much to capture the audience’s attention at all. While Melissa Joan Hart has been a actress that I have …
27 Dresses (Movie)
This is a movie about weddings, which is a topic that I love to watch in movies. Of course with any movie about weddings, there is some kind of conflict having to do with the bride. And that’s definitely the case in this movie. The main character is in …
The Family, movie (2013)
Have you ever think what life is like for gangsters in the witness protection program? Movies have featured such characters more than once, but other than a bit of snippet at the end of Martin Scorsese’s cult film Goodfellas, I can’t think of any movies that could tell you more …
Betrayed (1988)
An FBI Agent goes under cover to investigate the killing of a radio host, after successfully blending in with a farm family, she start to doubt the information that was given to her as it relates to the matter of the murder, the longer she remains in character, the …
Into the Wild
I watched Into the Wild yesterday. I think most or part of the plot story that is in this story is based on true events. Sean Peen excels this time and this is a very good movie which leads you to think long after the movie’s finished. …
Biloxi Blues
When I got a chance to sit down and watch Biloxi Blues the other day, it was because I remembered it being a funny movie.
Somehow my memories must be off because this movie was anything but.
It was an OK film and gives a small insight into basic training toward …
Cleaner, thriller film
Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Eva Mendes make up a stellar cast that didn’t make it too big in theaters. Cleaner feels a lot like an episode of CSI, a television show that has millions of viewers each and every week. With its CSI qualities there is more …
Movie: The Descent
The Descent is a horror cum gore movie, that horror seekers would love to watch. However, I have some qualms watching this movie, and I was at the verge of vomitting seeing the supposedly “monster” viciously attacking its preys or victims.
This story is about a group of girlfriends, …
Movie Gamer
I don’t even remember how and why I started watching this movie. We were there at the cinema and just chose that movie without thinking too much.
It was one of those movies that don’t leave any special impression on you. It is about this society where everyone lives as …
The Departed: Movie
The Departed is one of my favourite films, it’s absolutely brilliant. Although I am not generally a fan of the genre, the all-star cast made this a must see for me and it certainly didn’t disappoint.
The plot was something I hadn’t seen executed so well in a long time. …
The Bone Collector movie
Though I don’t like dark movies much, I watched The Bone Collector recently and to my surprise liked it. The movie starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie is a very nicely made movie. The movie through out which the leading actors do solve a case with very clever thinkings …
DVD: Girl with a Pearl Earring
I recently watched the DVD of “Girl with a Pearl Earring” (2003). Directed by Peter Webber, who recently directed “Hannibal Rising”, the movie tells the story of a young woman, a girl really who served as the model for the famous Vermeer painting of the same name.
Scarlett Johansson …
21 movie
It took me a couple of times to finally watch this movie the whole way through. Overall it was kind of boring but a decent movie. You need to watch the movie the whole way through because the ending is what made the movie a little better in my …
Film A Good Year
A Good Year is a real feel good film, just like the title suggests. Russell Crow plays the lead and I actually like him in this film. He does a great English accent and plays a hard hearted, workaholic, money hungry city trader to perfection. His character doesn’t seem …
Seven Pounds Movie
When asked Will Smith on what this story was all about, he said he couldn’t really tell as the narration would give away the story itself! I was really curiuos and knowing Will to be a very good actor, I watched this in anticipation.
I honestly didn’t get the …
House of the Dead (2003)
House of the Dead (2003) is a horror film by German director Uwe Boll and is rated R for pervasive strong violence/gore, language and some nudity.
House of the Dead is about a group of college kids who hear about a Halloween rave off on a remote island in the …
Black Christmas, the movie
The movie Black Christmas is a horror movie that has been remade. The movie I’m going to discuss in this review is the original movie. Although the movie was filmed a while ago, is still relevant and scary. The plot concerns a group of women, all …
The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014 Film)
As usual, this review will spoil no plot details, so feel free to read without any spoilers.
2 years ago, I haven’t even seen a single Wes Anderson film. Not until I was introduced to a seemingly, picturesque-filled title like “The Grand Budapest Hotel” midyear.
During that time, I believe I …
