Planet of the Apes
I was watching the film Planet of the Apes on TV the other day and have to say, considering when the movie was made, it is still one of the better science fiction tales you will come across.
There are two reasons I feel this way. One is the make …

Movie: Precious
I have seen advertisements for the movie Precious in the past and, from what I saw of them, I figured it would be a movie I would have absolutely no interest in. That’s why it never made my Netflix Queue.
However, my wife told me she wanted to watch it …
No Reservations
I love it when Catherine Zeta-Jones acts. She is gracing maturely and is truly beautiful no matter what her age is.
In this movie story, she acted alongside Aaron Eckhart and this is a very beautiful story that I suppose would be very popular with loads of chefs …

The Forth Kind film
I went to see this film with a bunch of my friends. We had seen the advert and thought it looked quite good.
The film is based on true events which takes it to a scarier level. The majority of the film is re-enacted however it shows a lot …

The Sixth Sense
Oh, I loved this movie when it came out. I am also very easily scared though and the twist at the end of it had me freaked out. I love the subtle nuances in this movie, they make them seem real. I don’t know why writers have to use …
Movie: Rambo
Well, I finally got a chance to watch the movie Rambo this past weekend.
When I started it, I honestly wasn’t expecting too much. There are way too many movies that try to remind us of 1980s films and I figured this would be one of those attempts (like Rock …
Cannibal, DVD Horror film
How am I supposed to review a movie where a man cuts off another man’s penis, fries it up in a cooking pan, and then serves it to the no-penis man and himself? How can I review a movie like this when the whole movie leading up to this …
Angels in the Outfield

Tremors 2: Aftershocks (1996)
Many times over I have mentioned that certain movies do not need a sequel and for every time I mention this fact there comes another movie which is a sequel to prove that fact time and time again. Take this movie for example, the original movie was so good …

Never Been Kissed
Never Been Kissed is a pretty good movie. I really liked it. It shows how love can still really be found in this world. I think that Drew barrymore did a very good job of acting. Her acting was just so magical. I really liked the plot and the story …

One of the best and my favorite comedians and actors is Will Smith, he can do comedy as if he was born to do it and act comically, he also has great skills as with Bad Boys and Hancock, and here on Hitch I think this movie really suited …
Days of Darkness
Watching Days of Darkness totally scared the hell out of me. I find the storyline very scary and in fact, if I were to be one of the characters, I would faint several times already. The cover of this DVD movie is also very scary and don’t let …
Little Shop Of Horrors
‘Feed me, Seymour!’ cries the hungry, man eating plant in Little Shop of Horrors. I love that line! That line is one of my favorite lines from a movie. Now I am not talking about the Little Shop of Horrors version made in the 1980s, I am talking about …

The Rocketeer
With all the movies about comic book action heroes that have been coming out lately, one that has been out for some time might be easily forgotten.
But, even after being on video shelves all these years, the movie The Rocketeer is still one of my favorites.
Bill Campbell does an …
Amadeus (1984)

Pirates of the carebean
You’ll be hearing sounds often in this film. The action is packed into nearly every partof this movie. Remember the sword fight between Depp and Bloom early in the first film. I found that to be the highlight of the fight scenes.You think I?m exaggerating? Not even close. Just …
School for Scoundrels
Before watching SFS, I was absolutely thrilled that my two favorite actors, John Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) and Billy Bob Thorton (Bad Santa), had finally come together to make a movie that was sure to be hilarious. And that’s just what it was. I was on the floor laughing after …
The Dark Knight Rises
Read on at the risk of spoilers.
For those of you who believed that ‘The Avengers’ and ‘The Amazing Spiderman’ would be strong competition for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ I’m sorry, but you could not be more wrong. The other two films were good, but this was on a whole …

The documentary Brooklyn Castle, in my opinion can be attributed to many positive events after its airing. For instance, right after I watched the film I learned that an Inner City school in Brooklyn was the first school of its class to win the High School Championship put …
Date Night (2010)
Tina Fey and Steve Carrell team up together in a very funny, smart movie. Date Night is a great comedy film, well executed with lots of clever lines and comical scenes. There were a few surprises, too, as the movie wound in a different direction that I …
Human Remains
Before Merchant and Gervais brought the mockumentary back to our screens with The Office, there was Human Remains. Although its legacy remains in the minds of those who fell in love with back in 2000, it certainly hasn’t earned the success it deserves. The show follows a simple premise: …

Daffy Duck’s Quack Busters
I loaded another Looney Tunes Cartoon on our Netflix Player the other day for our daughter “Daffy Duck’s Quack Busters.” It was an OK movie but not as good as I expected.
When I loaded it, I figured it would be a cute spoof of the show Ghost Busters, or at …
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street movie
Never forgive, never forget.
A true quote that pretty much sums up the plot of this fantastic movie which came out in 2007. Based on the hit Broadway thriller-musical which starred Angela Lansbury as Mrs.Lovett and Len Cariou as Sweeney, this movie was directed by Tim Burton (The Nightmare Before …
