Whoever told Ben Affleck that he can wear tights yet alone act (without Matt Damon) needs therapy. Bringing this comic book hero to life using this type of actor/acting is reprehensible and I dare say that they should have known better. While there are some actors cut out to …

In 1989, a movie directed by Richard Greenberg came out called “Little Monsters”. Though I had not seen the movie until many years later, I still hold it as a nostalgic movie from my childhood that left me feeling inspired to open my imagination to the world around me. …

I went to see this film with a bunch of my friends. We had seen the advert and thought it looked quite good.
The film is based on true events which takes it to a scarier level. The majority of the film is re-enacted however it shows a lot …

I am only sort of a romantic comedy fan. You can usually predict what will happen in the end and that bores the heck out of me. I did see the ending coming, it was predictable and trite, but the movie was still ok. Jennifer …

Yesterday, I bought the movie ‘30 Days of Night’. I had wanted to see it since it came out in the theaters but hadn’t because I wasn’t sure it’d be worth it. So I decided I’d wait until it was out on DVD and buy it.
I like Josh Harnett. …

From 1991, The Prince of Tides stars Barbra Streisand and Nick Nolte. Sometimes I find it hard to believe those two made an on-screen couple, but they definitely did. Also in the film, which Streisand directed, are Blythe Danner, Melinda Dillon, Kate Nelligan, George Carlin, and, making …

I rented this unwittingly believing that this would be a quirky and fun little film. What surprised me more than anything was the movie’s ability to bore me to pieces within the first few minutes. I should have known that if Ricki Lake was in …

When my roommate rented this, I was expecting another Eragon, an unoriginal fantasy that rehashes the same elements that we’ve seen before. The fact that this movie was brought to us by the same studio that gave us “Good Burger” did nothing to squelch my fear that we …

Woman’s World is an oldie but goodie. The movie was made in 1954 and some might call it dated, but I watched this movie a lot growing up and really like it. I wish I could find it on DVD or that cable would air it.
The vehicle …

My daughter was watching Inspector Gadget (on DVD) when I got home for lunch today so I ended up watching the episode “A Star is Lost” with her.

Victory with Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill.
When I first saw the title along with one of my favorite actors, I thought that it would be an adventure film with plenty of action. Boy was I wrong. This movie is so slow and action free …

I was fortunate enough to be able to see this movie in the theatres and I loved it. I don’t agree with the message it sends to its viewers but I found it funny and entertaining just the same. And here’s why you should watch Knocked Up.
Knocked …

I was expecting Josh Hartnett to shine in the DVD movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights. Don’t get me wrong; Josh is a darling and he acted really well but the storyline is a real bummer for me.

I wasn’t prepared to like Julie and Julia when I rented it on DVD; although I enjoy Nora Ephron’s writing, whether it is books or screenplays, I just didn’t think a movie about the famed cook Julia Child would be that interesting. Despite the fact that she remains one of …

A crazy scientist is creating an army of freaks in this supernatural horror film by David Cronenberg, perhaps one of the most disgusting films I ever saw in this genre, but also one of the most overwhelming. The tension is slowly built up and culminates in a macabre final …

When I first saw the preview for Inside Man, my excitement level wasn’t as high as it is expected to be with a movie that has two of my favorite actors ever, Clive Owen and Denzel Washington (also I believe that Spike Lee is an underrated director). Nothing …

The thing about slasher movies is they normally are good if you’re looking for a good laugh or just like watching a lot of blood and gore. But, as far as being scary, most fall well short of expectations.
I had never heard of the movie The Butcher before so …

This past weekend, we rented three movies. We were disappointed by 2. We absolutely loved the third one; Mr. Bean’s Holiday.
I’m actually a bit saddened by the fact this is going to be the last Mr. Bean movie. I say this because I have never laughed so hard at …

I think that the theme of Vigilantism never truly loses its charm no matter how many times movies are made on the subject. This is why I was quite interested in watching the movie “Big Bad Wolves”. I’d never seen an Israeli film before and I was curious to know …

How many times have we heard the phrase at the 11th hour? Quite often I bet and now that phrase will haunt those who are fans of good cinema. At the 11th hour the Criterion version of Ran was scrapped due to Lionsgate and StudioCanal. Criterion had to forfeit …

Cary Grant is just a hoot and a holler in this classic movie from the old days when movies rocked in black and white. About to be married, he goes to his aunts’ home and discovers some very disturbing news. It seems their elderberry wine contains a …

“American Psycho” was one of those films that everyone else had seen except for me, but that I still didn’t intend to watch. The theme, the cult movie status and the lead actor, Christian Bale, didn’t appeal to me.
What made me change my mind was starting to read …

I have always been a Sex and The City fan and I was anxiously waiting for this movie to be released. Honestly, the story line is not that interesting. It’s quite an ordinary plot. However, as a Sex and The City fan, it’s always the other …

Let me start off with saying Tim Allen isn’t my favorite actor and I was unsure about this movie when I heard he was in it, but after seeing it and laughing most of the way through, I thought he acted pretty well. I had to do a double …

Just when you thought Shrek couldn\’t get any funnier, they add Puss in Boots and mutant babies. Shrek remains as ogre-ish as ever, Fiona the classic, or not so classic, princess, and Donkey is just as hilariously annoying as in the first movie.
An invitation to the kingdom of Far …

From 1938, Letter of Introduction turned out to be better than I thought it was going to be. The center of the motion picture was the character of Kay Martin, as played by Andrea Leeds. When we first see her, she’s returning to the boarding house she …

Ugh. I hate the title for this movie even more than I hate the movie itself. And what surprises me is the amount of parents that let their kids watch something with the title ‘Mean Girls’. It’s not such an awful movie; I guess. It’s your typical high school …

After ‘Scream 4′ and ‘Apollo 18′ my cinematic palate needed cleansing. Fortunately, ‘Predators’ delivered just what I was hoping for. It’s especially impressive as sequels and follow ups to the original classic haven’t fared very well.
Unlike a lot of franchise relaunches, this doesn’t reboot or retcon anything. …

As the introduction, I watched this movie because I saw Gad Elmaleh in the cast lists and I love to see his silly face again since “Priceless”, his previous movie with the beautiful Audrey Tautou. And the result is : I still see the same character Gad plays in …

I am reviewing the new version of Pride and Prejudice that was made in 2006, starring Keira Knightley as Elizabeth and Matthew MacFadyen as Darcy.
