One of the Dvd’s I bought from Walmart the other day was a Documentary about Rush called Beyond The Lighted Stage. This movie discussed the band and also it features a bonus disc with lots of concert footage like the epic performance of La Villa Strangiato at Pinkpop in …

Robin Hood (2010) tells the story of Robin Hood, the famous legendary outlaw, but tells it in a very different fashion from previous Robin Hood movies.
In this newest adaptation of Robin Hood, which features Cate Blanchett (as Maid Marion) Russell Crowe (in the title role) and John Hurt, …

After a long time, I had the oppurtunity to watch a Shahrukh Khan Film. A romantic comedy film that sometimes brings the viewers to tears. I felt that some of the facts are so real in the world and that made me shed some tears. Good movie with …

This movie, created by Netflix, is a live action take on the anime Death Note. I will say right now that the anime version is easily one of my favorite shows, and when I heard that Netflix was creating this I was excited but didn’t really expect much from it. …

It took me years to watch the animated movie “Rango” even though some of my favourite actors did some of the voice acting. The main reason why it took so long too was that it seemed to have an “average” rating or “slightly above average” rating from people who watched …

Filmmaking is a medium that should transcend people into experiences rare in reality. Magic is one way to describe this art. The images are meticulously planned that the frames almost look surreal and incalculably rich and Andrea Arnold knows this secret so she magisterially created a piece of cinema that …

First of all, I liked this movie. It is not just a typical children’s movie because it really touched my heart. I think there are so many lessons that can be learned from this movie like improving self-confidence, importance of friendship, and believing in talents. The actors are all …

‘The Toll Collector’ is an animation short, really short actually at only 5 minutes. But it is 5 minutes of haunting, poignant beauty and it has stayed on my mind since I watched it. This is a visually dark claymation, with the pallid, ill-looking white faces of …

Jon Favreau, the director of Elf, couldn’t have outdone himself; Elf was simply too adorable. That siad, Zathura, his most recent children’s story, was much better than I anticipated. The special effects were a little chessy, particularly the malfunctioning robot and the entrance of the stranded astronaut. The child …

The best CGI movie to-date. What else can be said? This film is a most see for both adults and children. A true family hit. You cannot go wrong renting or buyng it. The Incredibles will is the greatest true action movie to hit the screen. If you haven’t …

When I think about Meet Me in St. Louis, I mostly think about Judy Garland and Margaret O’Brien. Garland is the star of this MGM movie from 1944, and she does a great job. She sings the classic Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and does so …

I am reviewing the movie, The Ninth Gate, which was released in 2000. Johnny Depp stars as Dean Corso, who is a rare book collector. He has been given the assignment to find the remaining copy of “The Nine Gates.” These volumes evidently have the power …

Anthony Hopkins has played so many villains, I think I have lost count. Here he appears as one again, intelligent, scheming, cold-blooded - just the way you like him. The movie “Fracture” (released in 2007) drew me in from the start, and from the start I knew it was …

When I first saw A Christmas Story a few years ago, I thought it was a great film. Now, after every television station has managed to show it at least a dozen times, I’m a bit burned out on it.
Overall, this is a unique holiday film in the sense …

OK, maybe it’s because I’ve never read the comic book but this is probably the tenth time I’ve tried to watch the movie League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and, try as I might, I just can’t seem to get through the entire movie.
I’m sure the concept of a crime fighting …

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 …

This movie is based on a true story of Frank Abagnale, a teenage con artist who successfully impersonated an airline pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, as well as cashed over $2.5 million worth of forged checks - all that before reaching his 19th birthday. Frank, played very convincingly …

The best words to describe the movie “Minutemen” is a teen version of the movie “Back to the Future” based in high school. Although this is another Disney movie with a high school story, one can never compare this movie to the very much renowned and loved “High School …

One of those Hollywod mixtures between asian martial-arts and plain old-fashioned action that features Jet Li in the role of a cop in seek of revenge for his brother’s death. Every time someone is shot in this film, we see the audience penetrate the human flesh on some kind …

Pollock is another movie about a real artist, Jackson Pollock. Pollock is the real deal and evidently Jackson Pollock was no peach. I was rather horrified by this movie, and it was very haunting. Jackson Pollock was an important American artist whose style was like no other. In Pollock, …

I am a sucker of good sci-fi flicks. There is something about the genre that doesn’t scream “boring”. However, I tend to ignore sci-fi features that don’t generate good interests from critics and audiences alike.
So when I looked at the stats of these film, it struck a chord. A …

Synopsis: Three middle-aged friends decide to go on a wild west vacation and participate in a real-life cattle drive.

There are so many different versions of the Cinderella story out there, but “Ever After” is by far the greatest of them all, and my favorite movie of all time. What makes this movie different from the others is that they made the movie in a very realistic …

When I come to think of it, there was such a long wait involved before I finally achieved closure on the Star Wars story. Just imagine waiting for a decade before I finally found out what was going on. Maybe if I read some books about the …

My sisters bought me some movies for Christmas. One of the movies was Mr. Deeds. I hadn’t seen the whole movie all the way through so I decided to watch it. It was actually better than I thought. For some reason I thought that the movie was stupid but …

Although I have always likes movies about superheroes in last few years I haven’t seen many good ones so I wasn’t expecting anything specially from Iron man either.
I know the story of Iron man because I saw so many cartoons about it and I have always liked them so …

I watched the DVD of Two Weeks Notice starring Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant the other day and there could not have been a better duo for their roles than them. It’s basically a movie story about serving your troublesome boss and after some time feeling that you have …

Don’t make the mistake to regard the movie “Nim’s Island” as just another movie for kids. This movie is ideal for all the family jam-packed with drama, romance and funny moments. Apart from providing us with a cute and entertaining story, “Nim’s Island” has got an A-List of actors …

Apocalypto must be one of the funniest movies I’ve seen this year. The problem is, it wasn’t supposed to be a comedy. But I couldn’t help but burst out laughing towards the end of the film. It just was too much, by that time.
First off, the …

Will Smith appears as the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali aka Cassius Clay in this film by Michael Mann. Will Smith is actually very convincing in this serious role, although I personally think he’s more suited for humoristic roles. From the first to the last scene of this film feels …

If you have watched this movie, you would agree with me that this is so much different than all other films produced by Walt Disney Pictures. Mulan takes its art and story cues directly from Chinese mythology and successfully blends them with Disney elements. Mulan is a loveable, spirited …
