I will never get bored watching this classic movie cum thriller romance called Vertigo. There is something hauntingly chilling but at the same time giving a nice feeling of romance after my each time watching this movie. Alfred Hitchcock was a real genius and it’s kind of sad …

“Catwoman”, released in 2004, was supposed to be a blockbuster, due to the fact that it was based on a comic book superhero and because it starred Halle Berry. It’s fortunate for her that her career was strong enough to survive this movie, because it was way beneath …

Japanese master director Akira Kurosawa here tries to depict a famous work in literature, Dostoyevskis The Idiot. Kurosawa has moved the story to Japan, which also has been done by the director with works of Shakespeare for example. The film is rather long, around 3 hours, but still it …

The fact that only select cinemas screened this movie meant something and when I saw that it was a European movie, I knew it was going to be good! I kind of knew what to expect: lengthy dialogues, character-driven plots, and a very unique story.
The movie started with …

First when i saw this movie poster, i think that Will Smith will play another dramatic with full of messages movie like his previous movie “the pursuit of happiness”, but well i’m wrong. This movie is not at all about drama and great quotes and meaningfull for life, this …

Some time ago, I watched an interesting South African film called “A Reasonable Man” on one of the Starz channels. The main question that the movie revolved around was ‘who exactly can be defined as a reasonable man in a multi-cultural society?’ and that was something I realised I …

I have seen some bad movies in my day, but good lord does this one take the cake. I know, it’s kind of popular to hate on Michael Bay, but he can, more often than not, deliver an entertaining popcorn flick. Heck, I enjoyed the first Transformers …

I thought that I’d watched all the movies with Anna Paquin in it until I saw another one recently on cable television. It was a horror movie named “Darkness”, which I noticed didn’t have a very good rating on neither the cable television guide nor IMDB. Nevertheless, sometimes I …

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within veers off from the video game (FF7, FF8 and FF9). None of the characters in this film has supernatural …

I don’t like most musicals because I find the majority of them boring and almost ridiculous. It really doesn’t matter what they’re about either, because they generally evoke the same feelings within me. I knew absolutely nothing about Hedwig and the Angry Inch when I was younger, because if …

The Professional is an absolutely fantastic film. Normally, the crime genre isn’t really for me. But this story is beautifully told about an assassin and how his life changes when he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of a 12-year-old girl.
First of all, the acting is excellent. The assassin Leon …

Whenever I watch Beastmaster, I can understand why it’s a movie that has been shown on television as much as it has.

I didn’t expect to like “Major Movie Star”. I didn’t WANT to like it. I can’t stand Jessica Simpson, and usually I make a religious duty of avoiding all her music and movies - even her commercials!
I hate to admit it: “Major Movie Star” was just downright cute.
Simpson doesn’t …

It has been five years since the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York. For most, the wounds are still raw. I wasn’t sure if people would really be interested or prepared for a film about any of the events that took place that day. I know …

Skinwalkers is quite possibly the oddest movie I’ve ever seen, and given the amount of strange and unsettling horror movies I’ve seen over the course of my life, that’s saying a lot. I first saw the movie advertised on another straight to video horror movie release, and the ad …

Originality is not one of the strong suits of the minds behind Tripping the Rift. The show is on the whole of it nothing more than a fairly uninspired riff on everything that has come to be considered part of science fiction over the last 100 or so …

The movie “Last Holiday” (2006) helped me to see Queen Latifah in a new way. It is a good story, and she fits right into it, delivering a funny and at the same time touching performance. She plays Georgia, a middle class woman who has a list of things …

I have always maintained that the best books to be made a movie are the fantasy books (witness Lord of the Rings the movie). I was eagerly awaiting the third movie Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban because I wanted to see how well the new casts such …

I have never read the Iron Man comic strips before. So, when the movie came out, I wasn’t sure what to think.

Robert Downey Jr. is great as a wealthy weapons developer who develops a conscience and …

Usually in Singapore it is common to anticipate a Jackie Chan block-buster in and around the Chinese New Year period, where the slightly longer holidays would encourage better box office.
