When Steve Martin re-did the Pink Panther movie, I thought his performance was actually better than the original. But, that wasn’t the only movie I can say that about.

Though it contains crude humor at times, The Hangover is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time. The only bad thing I have to say about this movie is that the storyline did not seem to flow very well at a couple points in …

I’ve always been fairly fascinated with the actress Neve Campbell, especially after I saw her in movies such as the “Scream” franchise and “The Craft”. She seemed to be a familiar face in the late nineties to the early 2000s, and I know believe some of that had to …

Seven Pounds is about a man who is about to commit suicide and he falls in love. Will Smith is the main character of this movie. He does an amazing job in my opinion. In the beginning of the movie it is confusing but interesting, in the middle of …

“Mrs. Henderson Presents” was another one of those movies that disappeared from the large screen before I had a chance to see it. I suspect this is true for many people. That’s a pity because “Mrs. Henderson Presents” is a charming, feel-good movie that will leave you feeling both …

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 …

Out of all of the Star Wars movies that came out in the 90’s, episode VI “Return of the Jedi” is my favorite. I had thought that the first two films made in the 90’s were incredible and that nothing could top them, but “Return of the Jedi” was …

Limitless is an awesome Sci-Fi thriller about a writer …

Alice In Wonderland, Tim Burton’s remake of the classic Disney film actually goes in quite a different direction than what I expected. Obviously with Burton, there’s going to be quite a few twists to the movie and overall sort of a dark or gothic type mood to it and …

Jet Li
UNLEASHED

Yeah, I should have expected as much. I decided to watch the movie 18-year-old Virgin in the hopes that maybe it would be a surprise “American Pie” like movie. Instead, it was a piece of garbage that wasn’t much more than a really bad porn film.
The movie has an …

Oh yes…it is a Trilogy. Every body wants to make a trilogy. As if the first two weren’t enough, now we must sit through another long winded three and a half hour movie with the clueless saviour of all. Need I say anymore. Action, storyline, dialogue, monologue…the same as …

Nicholas Cage is my all time favorite movie star. The first time I realized this was when I watched The Rock filmed in 1996. His accent alone captures my attention. It is that slow Californian voice that sounds so cool to me. When I first …

Disney Channel created a sensation with High School Musical in 2006. It has spawned two sequels, but I hadn’t even seen the original until last night. Of course, I’m not of current high school generation, so I’m not their target audience anyway.
