Movies Reviews
This is the End, Film
At first glance, —˜This is the End’ could be viewed as a vanity project. A comedy produced by the actors who star as themselves, it all feels a little bit self-congratulatory. The plot involves Seth Rogan, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson and James Franco having to …
The Good Shepard movie
If you enjoy watching a movie that makes you really think were the story is going, then you must watch Robert De Niro’s movie “The Good Shepard”. I knew that this movie was about the CIA, however for the first half an hour I was completely lost on what …
Pet Semetary 2
One of the shows which scared me the most when I was younger was the movie “Pet Semetary 2″. I had watched the prequel, “Pet Semetary” when I was about two or three years old and it scared me for many years until I watched the movie again. However, …
Halloween II (2009) movie
Rob Zombie’s journey from musician to filmmaker has certainly been interesting. The goth-rocker’s journey from ‘Dragula’ to ‘Devil’s Reject’ has been an odd mix of trashy screams and atmospheric horror, Rob Zombie’s films have always been something else. And ’something else’ is probably the best way to …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 42
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 42 has Winry staring at Alphonse’s empty armor after his soul left his body. He wakes up and helps May and Dr. Marcoh decipher Scar’s brother’s research notes. Meanwhile Van Hohenheim travels to Liore to investigate something and Kimblee searches for Edward Elric …
Mr. Nobody, movie
This movie follows the life and stories of Nemo Nobody, played by Jared Leto. The visuals and story telling in this movie is some of the best I have ever seen, not to mention the music used at many points in the film fit perfectly with the scenes they are …
Netflicks
While I do think that Netflicks is onto something with the art of doing dvd renting via the mail, I also think that in order for someone to really take advantage of the service completely, you have to sign up for their most expensive program offer. Of course, …
The Emperor’s Club movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Emperor’s Club, which is a movie that is about three years old or so. I am a huge fan of movies that center around professors in an academic setting. I have always had a passion for teaching, but do not think I …
Movie : Superstar (1999)
Superstar is yet another in a long line line of films based on short skits from the popular variety television show Saturday Night Live. There has been a few of these skit to movie translations over the hears heralding such comedic successes as WAYNE’S WORLD, A NIGHT AT THE …
Snowglobe (2007 Film)
Christmas is coming, and ABC Family is already starting with a pre-season start to Christmas shows. “Snowglobe” is an original ABC Family film that is about enjoying your family for the holidays and not trying to make them picture perfect as you think they should be.
This film might seem …
Millennium movie
From 1989, this science fiction movie speaks to me for some reason, and I really don’t know why. There’s just something about it that makes me want to watch it, over and over again … and I do.
Millennium stars Kris Kristofferson as Bill Smith, who as a young …
Annapolis (2006)
I don’t get this movie. It starts off with a young man trying to get into the US Navy. He is approached and offered a late entry spot and he takes the opportunity. He goes under the usual regulated training as a US Naval officer, then the whole direction …
Ice Age 3
We got a chance to finally see the movie Ice Age 3 (we were going to see it in the theater, but my wife was too far along in her pregnancy at the time). It was worth the wait.
This third installment of the Ice Age movies wasn’t as good …
Top Gun
For me “Top Gun” represents one of the very first movies that I watched at the cinema. For the main actor in this movie Tom Cruise, it represented his ticket to win over directors and a lot of women’s hearts! In other words, the beginning of a success story!
Although …
Suspect X - (Japanese movie with English subtitles)
I thought that this is going to be a super amazing movie story but it just disappoints me to the max. The actors aren’t that bad looking and quite talented and this is like a normal cop movie where Suspect X is the mystery in the story. Yukawa …
Baby snatcher
I watched this movie on lifetime move network today. Overall it was pretty good. The actors were really good in it, and they had more than one actor that was good. A lot of times in the life time movie networks there are only one good actor in the …
Sherlock Holmes Movie
Who knew Sherlock Holmes was a ninja? Let this movie be words of wisdom for anyone trying to pick a fight with someone of high intellectual standing. Yep, this means all you bullies out there better leave the computer nerds, college professors, and scientists alone or they …
Movie : Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog
I came across the short movie Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog a couple weeks ago and was intrigued enough to add it to my instant watch queue at Netflix (but not enough to actually rent the movie). I’m glad I did. The film was actually pretty interesting.
This movie, which was …
Glitter-film
I recently watched a rags-to-riches film starring the singer Mariah Carey.It is called glitter and is about a singer named Billie Frank who rises to success after being abadndoned by her mother and sent to an orphanage when she was a child.
The story starts with billie and her mother …
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days
I can’t believe that after so many times watching How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days, I have not yet reviewed this story at all. Therefore, I am staring now and for those of you whom have not yet made the cut to watch this, what are you …
Cars The Movie (Pixar)
As an animation enthusiast I am in love with what companies like Pixar do. In my opinion Cars is one of their greatest creations.
When Cars first hit the theaters it was my must see movie of the year. I am by no means a child on the outside, but …
Movie: Lake Consequence
Since my wife and I decided to do some early morning Black Friday shopping first thing this morning, we left the kids at my parents’ house last night. Since we finally had the house to ourselves for a change,we decided to watch a movie that was a little more …
Movie Kate and Leopold
We watch a lot of movies, it is our past time, and if you have cable then you don’t have to spend a lot of money going out. I watched a movie the other day called Kate and Leopold. Meg Ryan played Kate and I like Hugh …
Orgazmo
I am reviewing the little known movie, Orgazmo, which was released in 1998. Co-creator of South Park Trey Parker directs, writes, stars in, and even sings the theme song to this movie. He plays an innocent mormon who is offered a job as the role of Orgazmo, a …
Darkness Falls Movie
This movie shows the Tooth Fairy as a mean and evil being. It tells that tale of a little old lady who shows charity by collecting the teeth of little children in return she gives them money, she was also scarred terribly and wears a mask to cover her …
Meet the Spartans
With movie theater tickets averaging around 10 dollars, and popcorn, soda and candy averaging all together around 10 dollars as well, that all adds up to a very angry person leaving the “Meet the Spartans” theater. I think I lost brain cells watching that movie. I wanted to throw …
Fantasia/2000 movie
The IMAX movie Fantasia/2000 was a blast with my little cousins. I brought both of my 2 darling cousins to watch this IMAX movie, and since both of them are 4 and 3 years respectively, they giggled throughout the movie, and really enjoyed it so much.
My most favorite …
Movie Collateral
In the movie “Collateral” one can see the actor, Tom Cruise with a strange hair colour and the actor, Mark Ruffalo with gel in his hair and sporting an earring. Apart from these funny facts, “Collateral” had to be a Tom Cruise drama movie; however I felt that the …
A of “The Social Network” (2010 film)
Since it’s looking like a strong contender for Best Picture at the next Oscars, and because it was the only movie I’ve actually been even moderately excited about seeing in a long time, here’s my review of David Fincher’s “The Social Network,” a film based on a book chronicling …
K-Pax
I think K-Pax is a great movie. Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges do a great job in this film. So the movie is about an man who all of a sudden shows us at an air port, and he claims to be from another planet. Most people think that …
Movie Alex and Emma
“Alex & Emma” is simply a great romantic movie with comic moments in it. I personally liked a lot the actress, Kate Hudson because she interprets 5 different roles in it. I personally had a great laugh when she interpreted the role of maid and a child minder in …
Rave Theater
I love to go and watch a movie at the theater. We have a new theater that has not been built but a couple of years. I am very impressed with this movie theater, it is called the Rave Motion Theater. The seats are very comfortable and designed so …
City Lights movie
One of the silent films Chaplin made in a time when most others had converted to the “talkies”. The Tramp falls in love with a blind flower girl. He pretends that he is rich, and tries to find money for her eye operation. By helping a millionaire, The Tramp …
Don’t mess with the Zohan
Don’t mess with the Zohan is a hilarious comedy with Adam Sandler from Happy Gillmore. You can expect to find any of his movie funny. You will be sure to laugh your socks off of this movie Don’t Mess With he Zohan.
The way that Adam and everyone dressing …
It’s a Wonderful Life by Frank Capra movie
Like thousands before me, I adore Frank Capra’s “It’s a Wonderful Life.” I initially only consented to watch the movie because James Stewart played the main role. As a teenager, he was one of my idols, and I watched every movie he played in which I could get my …
Drive 2011 film
Before seeing this movie in the theater, I’d never heard of Nicolas Winding Refn. The film surprised me, and pleasantly so.
Keep in mind that when I say pleasantly, I mean brutally. To some these words may be interchangeable. I’d advise you to avoid such individuals. “Drive” was one of …
Red Sands movie
This movie contained some of my favourite actors like JK Simmons from Oz and Spiderman, and also the actor Shane West. However, even though I thought the movie wasn’t awful like some others I’ve seen, I still think that it really wasn’t all that great, and I was expecting …
“Hooligans” movie
Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …
Movie Mothman Prohecies
I like to watch movies a lot, that is one of our favorite pastimes. One of my favorite actors is Richared Gere. He played this characther John Klien in the Mothman Prophecies.
John lost his wife in an accident and he is haunted by her memory. He …
Shakespeare in Love,1998 movie
This movie is typical Hollywood fluff, with overdone “passion” and sexing. The storyline is okay; it could have been a decent movie if it was done right. Shakespeare, played by Joseph Fiennes, is struggling with a writing crisis, he thinks he has lost his gift and searches for a …
Family Guy: Something, Something, Something Dark Side
Several months ago, we watched the Family Guy movie Blue Harvest and thought it was one of the funniest Star Wars spoofs ever made. So, when we found out about the sequel, Something, Something, Something Dark Side, I couldn’t wait to watch it and moved it to the top …

The movie “Running With Scissors” was originally a memoir penned by Augusten Burroughs. In both the book and the movie we are introduced to the pitiful members of Augusten’s family (both biological and adoptive). Augusten’s mother, Diedre, is a passionate poetic soul with a penchant for drama. Augsten’s father, …
My Fair Lady: A Film by George Cukor (1964)
My Fair Lady is definitely one of the best Audrey Hepburn films to date. I’m not enthralled by the designer, Ralph Lauren and his bygone collection inspired from this musical film. But it aroused my interest to watch it anyway. All its posters in Technicolor suggested …
Daybreakers
The basic premise of this film is a future where vampires run the world and farm humans for their blood. I thought this was a pretty interesting idea but also figured it would just be “another vampire movie”. Although I was impressed with the initial idea for the movie, …
The Santa Clause (1994 film)
One Christmas movie that I have really enjoyed ever since I first watched it was the 1994 film The Santa Clause. There was so much magic in this film and gave viewers a first glance look at the North Pole, which is of course every child’s dream, and the …
Movie Casino Royale
Of all the James Bond films I’ve seen, Casino Royale is by far the worst.
First, Daniel Craig can’t fill even George Lazenby’s shoes when it comes to the role. He’s not handsome. He’s not charming and he’s not James Bond.
The movie itself was even more of a problem. …
Prophecy (Yokokuhan) (Japanese manga based movie)
Prophecy is a Japanese movie based on a manga series by Tetsuya Tsutsui, starring Toda Erika and Ikuta Toma.
A man who wore a mask made of newspaper (known as Shinbunshi) had been making prophecies of his own crimes online. The prophecies are usually about how he plans to punish someone …
Tower Heist Movie (2011)
I went to see Tower Heist last night with my friend, and be both agreed that it was one of the best movies we have seen in a long time. While we expected that a movie featuring Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy absolutely has to be good, we never …
