Stockholm, Pennsylvania (2015 drama movie)
“Stockholm, Pennsylvania” isn’t a very popular film, and so it’s understandable even if you’re a movie lover like me and have never heard of it. I consider myself lucky because I was able to catch it when it aired recently on HBO or Cinemax.
Despite some of the negative critical reception …

This was a 2000 A&E television production, and is now available on DVD. The movie is an interweaving of two stories: the 18th century invention of the marine chronometer by John Harrison, and the 20th century restoration of the timepieces by Rupert Gould.
I’m going to give this movie sort …
Thunderball movie
The fourth 007 film shows a Sean Connery who seem to be getting tired of this role, but it still a marvellous film, superior to those made the last five or ten years. It’s most memorable for it’s spectacular stunts under water, that I believe have never been done …

No, Warren Beatty was not crazy in deciding to remake the film An Affair to Remember, I have to say he has attained a certain degree of success. Now it is time to examine the real deal for what it is worth. In the heyday of black …

“Ernest Scared Stupid” (1991 Film)
Many people are familiar with the Ernest films. Each of them are themed differently but revolve around a loveable and child-like man who can be clumsy at times but becomes everyone’s friend and sometimes hero by the time the film is over. Not to mention he makes me laugh …

Movie : Wrong Turn 3-Left for Dead (2009)
I enjoyed “Wrong Turn” and “Wrong Turn 2: Dead End” and was all over “Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead” upon discovering its existence. The movie exceeded my expectations since sequels usually go downhill in quality. You know a scary gorefest is going to be good when within the …
X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie
If your a fan of the x-men series this movie may leave you entertained and a bit disappointed.
Hugh Jackman makes a great Wolverine. His character delivery is very similar to the original 3 movies. I thought his preform ace was good and right on where it needed to be. …
Blades of Glory
I watched Blades of Glory the other night, and I am a little on the edge about what to think about it. This movie is about two proffessional ice skaters who cannot get along, because of the level of competition. When that competition gets in the way …
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind stars Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet. I love Kate Winslet, and enjoy her movies so much. Jim Carrey is always the funny guy but in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind you will see a different side of him. Eternal Sunshine of the …
Candy movie
I watched this film starring Heath Ledger and Abbie Cornish, thinking that it was really going to be riveting. But I must admit that I was sadly disappointed. The movie tried too hard to be poignant, shocking, and emotional. What it turned out to be …

Last night was probably the 7th or 8th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say it, I love it as much as I did the first time I saw it.

Moulin Rouge movie
In all honesty, I love this movie. Although I’m not a big fan of musicals, I found this movie to be very entertaining, funny, and romantic. The production was really something that amazed me and these are probably the reasons why it is one of my top ten favorite …

Starving in Suburbia (movie)
I just finished watching the movie Starving in Suburbia and it was one of the best Lifetime original movies I can remember watching. I was actually shocked that it only got a rating of about 6.5 on its IMDB page since I think that it should have gotten at …

At first, I was wondering what this Sleepover DVD movie is all about. But after watching it, I started to join in the ‘fun’ that the characters in the story and this is a very laugh out loud type of movie that will be entertaining for you and your …
Ghost Hunt (anime)
Ghost Hunt is a really interesting anime about the supernatural phenomenon of ghosts and exorcisms. I liked how there are many different “professional exorcists” who come to make up the team. I also liked how the different cases are more than one episode. I thought that …
Journey to the Center of the Earth
I went to see this movie with my mom as kind of a mom/son date before leaving for school. I had never really been to a 3d movie so I thought it would be a neat one to try even if it was a coined a “kids movie”. We …

I got to see the movie Babel with a friend last week, and we came out with mixed opinions. I liked the film, and she was less thrilled by it. We both agreed on several things, though. We agreed that the film is fairly interesting and …
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 …
When A Stranger Calls (2006) movie
When a Stranger Calls is a suspense thriller that really was a waste of time. Not even scary in the least and everyone knows what exactly is going to happen.
The basis of this story is incredibly simple. There is a high school girl who is babysitting for a …
Hot Shots Part Deux
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …

Directed and written by Paul Thomas Anderson, There Will Be Blood is one of my favorite films of all times. The movie comes in two formats for the DVD, the single disc and the two disc special edition. Both offer the film in its entirety, but the one is …

Bedtime Stories movie
I’m not as big of an Adam Sandler fan as I used to be. This is mostly because his movies always seem to rehash basically the same plot and some of the films are so terrible I can’t get through 10 minutes.
But, we decided to pick up Bedtime Stories …

“Whip It” (2009 film)
Like any discerning cinema fan, I’ve always been slightly suspicious of Drew Barrymore. Can she act? It seems for every decent performance she delivers, she chooses some unbelievably soulless project that would make even the finest acting look like a middle-school play. And way too often it seems like …
All About Steve film
I like the fact that Sandra Bullock in many of her films, usually plays a feisty but vulnerable sort of character, a real fighter, someone we can all relate to. “All About Steve” continues in this time honored tradition, rather like, “Miss Congeniality”. I was pleasantly surprised to find …

Red Eye Movie
This seemed like a very interesting story, not really your average suspense movie as it does have a bit of action involved. The movie is about a girl who’s a hotel manager (Rachel McAdams) and she just goes home for a vacation and meets a nice young man (Cillian …
