Halloween
I absolutely hate the new “Halloween,” this crude, obscene, bloody, gory, stupid, disgusting slasher. I have not seen the original version made sometime in the 70s, but from what I hear, it did not have all the sliced up bodies on screen; this one does, and seems to relish …
Little Shop of Horrors movie
It was kind of hot outside yesterday and, since my wife is 9 months pregnant and can’t handle the heat too well right now, we ended up spending a good chunk of our afternoon indoors by the air conditioner watching movies.
One of the movies we ended up re-watching for …

Furious 7 (Fast & Furious 7) - Movie (2015)
Furious 7, starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson is a movie that had high expectations before its release, primarily due to Paul Walker’s death, half-way through the filming of the movie. In my opinion, the movies in the Fast & Furious series have been disappointing but Furious 7 …

Apocalypse Now movie
This classic war story and loose depiction of Joseph Conrad’s novel Heart of Darkness, was made by the Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola in the late 1970s under hardcircumstances. The result of all work is nothing less than a masterpiece with brilliant performances by Martin Sheen and, more than …
It Takes Two movie
Mary Kate and her sister Ashley Olsen star in the movie It Takes Two. This movie reminds me a little bit of a classic Disney movie called the Parent Trap. Except that the man in this movie is a rich tycoon who made it big on making money from …

In this movie, murder is afoot! A little …
Crimson Peak (2015 Gothic Horror Movie)
I love Gothic Horror movies, Guillermo Del Toro, Jessica Chastain and Tom Hiddleston and so it was a given that I definitely had to see the movie Crimson Peak once it was released. I read both good and bad reviews about it, and so I wasn’t totally sure what to …
When Trumpets Fade movie
A film set during World War II, focused on a band of soldiers and their struggle for survival. It begins very good with a strong sense of realism and despair, but then it is so evident that this film was intended for television, and the low budget is so …
Twilight Saga: New Moon
For a Twilight fan like myself, wating for New Moon to be released in the theaters felt like such a long wait. I wanted to watch the sneak preview, but I couldn’t get any ticket, and it was next to impossible too on November 20, 2009, the official …
The Hills Have Eyes 2, Martin Weisz Movie
‘The Hills Have Eyes 2′ is a remake of a sequel. Although the original movie directed by Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street) in the year 1977, also has sequel with the same title in 1985. However, the version of 2007 is not a remake of the 1985 …
Fire Wall
If anyone ever wants to know why I oppose a fourth Indiana Jones film, they should watch the movie Firewall.
Harrison Ford definitely shows his age in this movie. He plays a married man and father of two who must figure out a way to hack into his bank�s security …
Clean Slate (movie)
I have to admit, outside of Wayne�s World and Wayne�s World 2, I haven�t seen many Dana Carvey movies. But, after watching his film, Clean Slate, I think I�m going to have to see more.
Granted, Carvey wasn�t overly convincing as a private investigator. He just didn�t seem tough enough, …
The Princess Diaries
“The Princess Diaries” was Anne Hathway passport to success and also opened her way to other interesting and challenging roles such as “The Devil’s Wears Prada” and “Brokeback Mountain”. What I find interesting about this actress in the fact that even though she didn’t work on a huge list of …
Derailed (2002)
Canada, you must be so proud. The only butt kicker who can rival Steven Seagal in this modern age is at it again with this 2002 film, action packed and adventure lade, Derailed. Jean-Claude Van Damme, Canada’s favorite son, is revising his role as the toughest SOB ever to …
Horrible bosses movie (2011)

This movie is the sequel from previous movie, the Fast and the Furious. It’s still always about racing car involved catching the bad guy.

Zorro, The Gay Blade
Stories or movies from Old California are dear to my heart, being raised in Southern California through my childhood. I think that if a double-feature were in order, this movie should be coupled with The Three Amigos. The comedy is similar.
The comedic strength in this movie stems from brilliant …

Amusement (R, 2008) movie
“Amusement” is one of those horror films that you have to watch with few expectations. I went into the movie with an open mind. I liked the fact that the film was broken up into parts, sections that would ultimately culminate into something that I could fuse …

Dragon Heart movie
When I first rented Dragon Heart, I thought it was going to be a dumb movie. I was pleasantly surprised about how good it was and have watched it several times since.
Sean Connery has always been a star but I truly feel his voice over for Draco, the dragon, …
Yoga Hosers, horror comedy
I’m a fan of Kevin Smith’s work. I enjoyed the “View Askewniverse” movies as well as “Red State”. I’ve also enjoyed his podcast “Fatman on Batman”. I have yet to see “Tusk” but I was able to check out it’s sequel/spin-off “Yoga Hosers”.
The fact that this follows …
Oceans Movie
Recently the movie Oceans became available on Netflix instant queue and I immediately added it. I am a big fan of nature movies because they offer a glimpse of an extremely beautiful world that most of us hardly ever get to see to the extent that it deserves. Oceans …
Frequency
The movie “Frequency” which starred Dennis Quaid and James Caviezel as father and son tandem is a entertainingly family oriented film. It would make you realize the importance of having a father in the home. How tormenting it would be to a child who grows up without the …
30 Days of Night: Dark Days
I really enjoyed watching the film 30 Days of Night and was excited when I heard that a sequel would soon be coming to the big screen. To what potential readers may find dismaying, I have to say that that 30 Days of Night: Dark Days was unimpressive.
I did …

27 Dresses (2008)
Here we go again, yet another dull, boring and dreary chick flick to torture the living daylights out of you and leave you wondering why the hell do developers keep putting such utter rubbish on the silver screen, but worst, why do people pay good money to go and …
ROPE-Alfred Hitchcock
Over-hyped, just like some of the Godard or Spielberg movies, this film too is rather carried off by the star-value of the director than the content itself. The very concept that the director has tried to work in the film (it was an experimental venture by his …
Splice (Movie) 2009
I was really intrigued with this movie “Splice” that I finally decided to see it for myself. I have been putting off seeing it for the longest time because my husband did not want to watch it. I finally had the time of day to see it finally.
Splice is …

I’m a fan of fairytale stories from Cinderella, Snow white, Goldilocks, Beauty and the beast and many more. I’m 22 years old and I still believe in happily ever after. When Tangled was first introduced I never hesitated and watched the film on its first day. I’ll …
Movie Roxanne
I took the time to watch a movie I haven’t seen in a long while; the Steve Martin film, “Roxanne.”

I usually love Martin’s movies. But, this one, where he plays a long-nosed fire chief who is in …

Salt Movie (2010)

Arachnophobia movie
I was trying to find something to watch last night while sitting up with our youngest daughter and ended up putting on the movie Arachnophobia.
Big mistake. And, not because it is a horrible film; because it kept me up half the night thinking there were creepy crawlies on me.
I …
Yankee Doodle Goes to Town movie short
I actually just stumbled upon this movie short from 1939 while looking for something to watch on television. It’s called Yankee Doodle Goes to Town, and it’s definitely a pro-America, pro-democracy creation. It’s theme is that America continues to rise up, to defeat its foes, and that …
