Happy Feet
I can’t help but watch animated movies with my kids, because they usually hide the remote control if they play something! Talk about manipulative kids! And so one day, I ended watching the animation “Happy Feet” with them. It’s a story of penguins of rare breed and species, losing …
Movie Great Expectations
Great Expectations starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Ethan Hawke is an average movie with some boring moments. Pip used to go to the house of an old woman everyday and he is a painter and artist from his childhood. Oneday he sees a small girl who is of his age …
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 …

Boogeyman Movie
Another pitiful attempt in trying to create a horror movie, why do they even bother, it’s clear to see that they don’t have a clue about scaring people. This film is plagued with alot of misdirection or better yet, no direction at all. If this man is supposed to …
The Insider
I thought The Insider was a great movie. This movie was very exciting and interesting. It shows how dangerous being an insider with info can be. This is a story about a man who is an insider at the Tobacco industry. He works for the Tobacco industry, but he knows …

Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer Movie
Are you just plain tired of the same old horror movies? Are you sick of the tiresome overkill of the once popular (for some stupid reason) ’shaky cam’ in horror movies? Are you wishing for films reminiscing of ‘Evil Dead’? Well look no further than ‘Jack …
X-Men: Days of Future Past (movie)
One of the movies that I went to see fairly recently was the latest in the X-Men series, which was X-Men: Days of Future Past. Missing it would not have been an option for me since I loved watching the animated series and reading the comics growing up, the …
Movie 50 First Dates
I decided to buy the movie “50 First Dates”, after watching the trailer and seemed to be interesting; however in the end I was very disappointed due to the fact that this movie must represent the worst interpretation from actors, Adam Sandlers and Drew Barrymore.
“50 First Dates” includes some …
The Muppets Christmas Carol (1992 Film)

The Ides of March Movie
After watching the Ides of March I have found it to be entertaining, gripping, smart movie. The cast of the movies is the top of the line, you couldn’t wish for better actors to work on it. The strongest feature of the movie is in the unique characters in …
Black Butler: Season One, Anime
Okay, so I just finished season one of Black Butler and I am having such an emotional turmoil. I have developed such a strong emotional attachment to the characters because of their distinct personalities, mainly Ciel and Sebastian (the master and the butler, respectively).

I just saw Incredible Hulk II and I don’t know really what to say. no words can describe how I enjoyed watching this film which was superbly done. The special effects, the digital enhancements are all perfect! When I first saw the trailer and found out that Edward Norton …
Transformers 2
Transformers 2 is one of the best movies I’ve ever watched. The movie matches the intensity of the first Transformers movie but brings the action up a notch. Here is my opinion on the movie.

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 …
Notes on a Scandal
I didn’t quite know what to expect with this one. Cate Blanchett is one of my favorite actresses, capable of assuming all sorts of roles. Her role as a pedophile (essentially), teacher having an affair with one of her students was rather shocking. But …
Catch and Release
In the movie “Catch and Release” we see the actress, Jennifer Garner with a sad face most of the time, but believe me this movie is by far not boring. One can describe best “Catch and Release” as a romantic movie about relationships and trust ideal for both women …
My Super Ex-Girlfriend
I must admit that I am not an admirer of Uma Thurman’s movies. When I watched the trailer of “My Super Ex-Girlfriend” I thought that it was a cute fantasy movie with a romantic touch, however I ended up not enjoying this movie.
I must admit that I enjoyed watching …
Meet the Fockers
I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed watching ‘Meet the Fockers’ when it came out on DVD. I personally feel it was much better than the prequel, ‘Meet the Parents.’ It was nice to see Robert DeNiro and Dustin Hoffman play …

Beowulf Film
Robert Zemeckis, John Malkovich, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone. A pantheon of names builds this incredibly well recreated story of Beowulf based on the Norse legend of the same name. The movie grabbed me from the first moment at the sight of the decrepit and tired Hrothgar (Anthony …

Avatar movie 2009
I saw the movie Avatar three times– twice in the theater in 3-D, and once at home in 2-D as a rental. I’d been looking forward to seeing it months before it ever came out. The big question always being: would it live up to all the hype? I …
The New World Movie
Last night I was able to walk down to the local movie theatre and view “The New World.” This was a film I was pretty excited about to see because it was rarely released to local theatres, plus Christian Bale was in it.
Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …
Suspect Zero (R, 2004) movie
I had this film in my Netflix queue, and finally purchased it somewhere else before viewing it. I really wish I had seen the movie first, or I would not have bought it. As much as I like Carrie-Anne Moss, I simply found her role in …
Movie: Escanaba in Da Moonlight
I ended up watching a movie last night that my brother once recommended to me; Escanaba in Da Moonlight. He thought it was the funniest movie ever made. I hate to say it, but I just don’t see what he liked about it.
OK, he’s a deer hunter and maybe …

The Hot Chick: Funny Movie

Trocadero is one of the more entertaining movies that I’ve watched recently, and I’ve been watching a ton of motion pictures of late. From 1944, the movie stars Charles Calvert as Tony Rocadero. He was a foreigner who adopted two children he loved dearly, Judy and Johnny. …
Pearl Harbor The Movie
I was never much for history, but I do love a good old fashioned romance which is exactly what this is. I loved this movie more than I originally thought I would and was glad I spent the money to see it in the theaters. And here’s …
Ocean’s 13
I’m not going to lie. I thought Ocean’s 12 was absolutely terrible! Ocean’s 11 was, in my opinion, a very solid movie, that I thoroughly enjoyed. So when the third in line of the sequel was announced, I was a bit skeptical. But, nonetheless, I …
Rocky movie
What is the big deal about the movie Rocky? I don’t understand why anyone would want to watch people beat each other up. And, if you haven’t noticed, the acting is not great. So what is the point? I think Sylvester Stallone was pretty hot when he was younger …
Last Night film
Director Don McKellar brings us a thought provoking, powerful and at times, humorous vision of the last day on earth.
It’s an unusual take on the apocalypse, opting instead to show the very real human tragedy behind the impending disaster. Some sit alone with their own thoughts, others band together …

One of my favorite actors, Zach Braff (from the movie Garden State, and the popular tv show Scrubs), stars in a movie from 2006 called The Last Kiss. The movie is rate R for sexuality, nudity, and language. It’s only 103 minutes, so the movie isn’t stretched out. I …
Netflix Online Mail-Order Movie Rental Service
This is a very disappointing and much over-hyped service for many reasons, but it has a few slightly redeeming factors.
When I first used my free trial membership, the movies arrived in a flash. Sometimes literally 1 day later. The turn around was nearly as fast, and I …
The Aviator, movie
You could call this a match made in heaven. Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese team up for the “Aviator” and managed to surprise me on all fronts with an excellent drama that viewers can’t help but like. With the real life of Howard Hughes so cloaked by his own …
