When RV came out at the theaters, I avoided it like the plague. I like Robin Williams but I have been very disappointed by his comedies in the past.
After seeing it on DVD this past weekend, I was sorry it took me so long to see it.
I was always …

Being a huge Alien and Predator fan, I had always wanted to see if a crossover movie could actually work between these two powerhouses. I remember a few years ago, before the plans for the current first AVP movie, hearing about how there were plans to make such a …

When I first saw the movie Virtual Girl, my first thought was it was going to be some sort of soft-core porn film posing as a thriller. But, I have had that impression of other movies before and, when I gave them a chance, I found them to be …

I applaud Vexille for taking a different direction in its CG animation, but the lack of characterization and story really hurt it in the long run.

Noises Off
This is what I consider to be one of the best and one of my favorite comedies of all time. A Broadway play gone wrong. If you were sitting in a front row seat, you couldn’t help but to just die laughing. When it comes to stage plays …

One of my very favorite made-for-TV movies is called City Beneath the Sea from 1971. It’s not a great movie in the scheme of Emmy winners, but it is a star-studded affair that has drama, romance, and mystery. I love it and find it to be a …

The trailer for November Man didn’t make it come off as something that I would want to see in the theatres. For some reason, it just felt as if the movie wouldn’t be very good. However, when I watched it, even though I didn’t think it was great, it was …

The movie The Grudge is one of the best new scary movies to come out recently. I did enjoy the movie. Although I must say it’s very similar to The Ring. The reason I saw this is because both of the dead people who come back to kill were …

2 Weeks Notice with Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant is a movie in which the two stars play the exact same characters (with different names) that they have in a multitude of other movies that I have seen. While You Were Sleeping and Bridget Jones’ Diary come to mind. …

Another good good good!
Another topnotch of Ghibli stuff. This is is one of the romance movie I have seen without cliche and it tackles so much about life in a very simple way. Though its an old movie it definitely deserves a second look.
Hayao Miyazaki is one of …

This movie was originally shown in IMAX theatres but it is now on DVD. It is about the series of terribly destructive eruptions that happened in the 80s. At the time it erupted, I was too young to really remember hearing about it on the news and since I …

The problem with A …

I have probably seen Eurotrip a dozen times by now. It’s one of those movies you just have to see all over again. Love and friendship are perfectly combined in this excellent comedy which consists of a trip of a bunch of high-school graduates all over Europe.
The movie shows …

I realize that most people think this is the worst film in the entire series of Friday the 13th movies, but I actually did like it. I think what I liked the most was that it almost feels as if the producers know people will think it’s cheesy so …

I was really eager to watch this movie because of its plot but after a few minutes or so in this movie, I kind of feel unsatisfied and disgruntled.
Pathology is a story about Dr. Ted Grey, played by Milo Ventimiglia, a Harvard Medical School graduate who joined a …

When will the saga end? That is the questing that keeps lingering on the lips and in the minds of the viewing public, me being one of them. For far too long the Jason serial killings in the Friday the 13th franchise been drawn out, done and redone to …

During the time that Quantum of Solace was on cinemas, I decided to watch it with my best friend. In the end, both of us had a different opinion on the movie.

From 1988, Tequila Sunrise simply bored me from scene to scene. I could never get into it. In fact, I turned off the DVD on one day and went back to it on another, starting from the beginning. It was just too uninteresting.
Now it’s possible that …

I didn’t know that this musical, Everyone Says I Love You was directed by Woody Allen until my friend highlighted it to me. I am not that big a fan for musicals, but at the same time, I don’t prevent from watching it altogether. I think that musical …

I watched Beethoven the movie last night. This movie is pretty flawed but a decent time overall, if you are into dog comedies. It stars Charles Grodin and is produced by comedy legend Ivan Reitman. It came out in 1991.

Rob Marshall turned a New York Times’ Bestseller into a Hollywood box office hit. I have to admit though, it’s not a film I would want to watch over and over again. It’s brilliant. Emotional. Deep. That said, it’s kind of depressing despite the ending. The entire film has …

The movie 10 catapulted Bo Derek into a household name. Bo is steamy hot in this film, although the acting leaves much to be desired. I like 10 because it’s cool to see an icon when she was young and very, very beautiful. Bo Derek can’t act worth a …
