A mentally disturbed woman I wonder when her mind turned. Did it happen when she saw her husband coupling with another woman, or had it always been part of her psyche waiting for the right moment to erupt?
Melanie, …
Bleak House (2005)
Bleak House is one of those movies I can watch over and over again. I am speaking of the newer, 2005 version, although the older one, that of 1985, is also well done (it had been one of my favorite movies until the new one came out). This movie, …
The Pagemaster
This movie is so much fun! It was made in 1994 and stars Christopher Lloyd and Macaulay Culkin, with other well known actors lending their voices and talents to the film, including Whoopi Goldberg.
When the movie begins and ends, it’s live action. But, for the …
UnBreakable
UnBreakable was a really cool movie. Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson did a great job in this movie. I think that the characters were really good in this film. I was very impressed with all the special effects in the movie and everything else. I thought this movie was …
Domino movie (2005)
(Keira Knightley, Mickey Rourke)
Heads you live. Tails you die. And this movie definitely lives! This “story” about the first female bounty hunter, Domino (Knightley) is a full tilt, off the chart super pumped extravaganza of action, chaos, and mayhem. The high-octane, deliriously shot scenes do …
Chak De! India
I am an avid movie watcher from Mumbai. I always grab the chance to watch a movie, be it in theatres or at home.
So, I got a chance to watch the latest Yash Raj Movie, ‘Chak De! India’ meaning ‘Go, India’
It was my friend’s birthday i.e. 2 days after …
Spider-Man 3
In order to give proper respect to new and old Spider-Man fans, I feel it good to do a little review. Spider Man appeared on the comic book scene in the early 1960’s. Peter Parker wore nerdy eye glasses and was a photogropher for the Daily News. Harry Osborne …

James Bond - Casino Royale
This movie is quite different from all the previous 007 movies starting from Sean Connery as James Bonds. First I have to point out that the opening introductory song is also different. From all the previous ones, when the music started, there were usually profiles of women dancing all …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
There aren’t many movies that I’m willing to spend the price of admission on. Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull is one of the few I am.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, movie
Like many others who watched and re-watched the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy multiple times, I had high hopes for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.” But, after sitting through the film, I was left very disappointed.

Godzilla vs. Biollante

Johnny English
This movie, like anything with Rowan Atkinson in it, is very funny. It doesn’t quite have the flow to it that many of the Mr. Bean sketches have, but it’s still very fun to watch.
It seems similar to the Pink Panther, yet of course different. In this movie, Johnny …
Lady and the Tramp movie

500 Days of Summer movie
First of all, an admission. I had not heard anything about this film and would normally not see a romcom at the cinema. I only went because there was a free preview showing through Guardian Soulmates (strangely apt to see a romcom about failed relationships as a dating event). …
Cowboy Bebop episode 2
In Cowboy Bebop, episode 2, cool dog’s strut is a marvelous excuse of a waste of time. Keeping up with Cowboy Bebop’s unparalleled style, the entire episode seems to be an excuse to write in Rin. Who is our new lovable bioengineered welsh carrier, that seems to hog …

Paul Mooney: Analyzing White America (NR, 2002)
