Mr.Deeds
Mr.Deeds is a mediocre comedy movie. This Adam Sandler and Winona Ryder starred movie misses something which makes it not appealing much to the viewer. Though the movie has a decent plot and impressive star cast, it some how doesn’t manage to attract the viewer. It is the story …
I Am Love: A film by Luca Guadagdino (2009)

The Perks of Being a Wallflower (movie)
I’m one of those people who is a big fan of independent films, but for some reason when I saw a trailer of this movie a few months ago I wasn’t very interested in it. The fact that Emma Watson and Logan Leerman played two of the main characters …

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is the sequel to the critically and commercially successful movie, Miss Congeniality, starring Sandra Bullock.

The Pursuit of Happiness
I’ve just returned from watching the newly released ‘The Pursuit of Happiness’ starring Will Smith. Based on a true rags-to-riches story of a smart and hard-working man, the movie has left me touched, encouraged’ and a little depressed. It’s not that I didn’t know that life can be hard; …
Gone With The Wind
Gone With The Wind is a classic, there is no question about that. It is a well-made and well-acted movie that tells a good story. However, I must say that I find it almost unwatchable at times because I absolutely hate Scarlett O’Hara. Don’t get me wrong: Vivien Leigh …

I wasted 93 minutes of my life to watch this movie. I waited and waited for it to be funny still waiting!!! This was the most stupid movie I have ever seen. Everyone warned me not to see it but I did not listen to their advice. …
Movie: “The Toy”
This Richard Pryor classic is as hysterical today as it was at its 1982 release. The laughs never stop; even the slapstick comedy is so well-done that it had me laughing out loud.
Master comedian Jackie Gleason plays a wealthy businessman who promises his spoiled son any toy he wants. …
The Parent Trap
I could watch DVD movies acted by Lindsay Lohan a day’s straight. I don’t know why, but her acting is so good and with such a young age, The Parent Trap is probably one of her earlier best movies when she was at a young age that I first …
Movie Review: David Copperfield, 1999
I bought this movie on DVD from Amazon.com. It is great for family watching since the story will interest children as well as adults, and there is no nudity or profanity. It will make a good introduction to the works of Charles Dickens.
David Copperfield (Daniel Radcliffe) is born 6 …
Wild Hogs
Well..
Someone must of been real drunk or is really stupid in order to make this movie.It just finished in front of my innocent eyes an hour ago.When it first started,I said,it should be good,big budget to hire those actors.John Travolta,Tim Allen,Martin Lawrence,William Macy.Sure they aren’t big cash magnets like …

Star Wars episode VI: Return of the Jedi
Out of the three original films, many cite this as the weakest of the bunch. They say that this was the beginning of the end for the Star Wars franchise.

A Cinderella Story
A Cinderella Story is a really interesting take on the fairy tale of Cinderella.
This movie stars Hilary Duff as the to-be “Cinderella” and Chad Michel Murray as her “prince.” Hilary narrates some of the movie like she is a telling story, which I found to be nice.
The movie …
Meet Dave
Played by one of the most respected comedians in the entertainment industry, Meet Dave is a movie that I would have otherwise been reluctant to watch, as I am not really into blatant fiction, but because of the Eddy Murphy factor, I knew that it would have that comedy …

Vicky Cristina Barcelona

The movie started with the two characters Vicky (Regina Hall) and Cristina ( Scarlet Johansson), two young americans who decide …
Robinson Crusoe movie
This is the version by surrealist Luis Buñuel, which is surprisingly enough a most conventional film. Buñuel was otherwise a filmmaker who never let the audience’s needs come in conflict with his artistic vision, and only created what he felt was important. His version of Robinson Crusoe shows that …

Sorry Haters (NR, 2005) movie
I am a fan of Robin Wright-Penn and wish that she would appear in more films. When I saw this film on Netflix, I was immediately intrigued. I didn’t know what the movie was about, only that she played a woman with a grudge who befriends …
Candyman
This is a 1992 movie, and for some strange reason did really well, you could call it a cult classic. The plot is weak even for a science fiction film, it leaves huge holes in the story, like when there talking about the “Candyman” they talk about him like …

You Don’t Mess with the Zohan Movie

Movie: The Girl Next Door
I liked “The Girl Next Door” the first time I watched it, but I really enjoyed it more the second time around. I liked it so much, I actually bought it on DVD! I got a good deal, so even though I don’t feel the need to …
Sixteen Candles
What is interesting about teen movies is the fact that every time period is associated to a film. Now a days is “High School Musical” period, but in the 80’s they had “Sixteen Candles” which was a smashing hit at the time.
This movie definitely marked the beginning of …
War of the Worlds: Movie
War of the Worlds is one of my favourite alien invasion films; I thought it was really well made.
Besides having all the ingredients to make a got alien picture, such as the budget, the actors and the CGI; they also managed to capture what I find to be rather …
Columbo: Murder, Smoke and Shadows movie
I’ve always remembered Columbo: Murder, Smoke and Shadows, not because of the actors but because of the story and that it makes use of Universal Studios. In fact, the opening has the soon-to-be murder victim on the tram, riding around seeing the attractions, like Jaws and the burning …
Crash (2004)
“Crash” (2004) is movie about a series of car crashes and the events that lead up to the crash. The movie last 115 and, frankly could be cut without serious harm. “Crash” is a Bull’s Eye Entertainment production in English and filmed in color on sets and locations throughout Los …
