The third installation of the Robocop saga continues with a new character playing Robocop, I guess that the original guy got totally fed up of the whole thing and decided that it was no longer in his best interest to continue playing the cyborg police officer. In this movie, …

I adore Lucy Gallant. It’s a film about the Texas oil boom. Jane Wyatt plays the title role of Lucy Gallant, a woman running away from her old love and who ends up stranded right in the middle of oil country. She quickly meets the tall …

“Fahrenheit 451″ filmed in 1966 and directed by François Truffaut is one bad, boring movie. I am really sorry to say this, but it is. I had read Ray Bradbury’s book titled “Fahrenheit 451″ and I remember enjoying it, so when I saw the movie at our library I …

For those who have watched Mr Bean’s show once you will realize how much the situation in this movie is an invitation to disaster: a plane ride for the United States (heavens, Mr. Bean in an airplane, remember how he was in a mini car) to go to a …

I didn’t find this film uplifting or refreshing in any certain way. Mostly it’s just a copy …

My daughter wanted to watch this movie so much! She would beg me every day to bring her to the theater to watch this movie. She even did her same old puppy eyes so I had no choice but to say yes. So I went to the theater to …

One night, a few years back, I had a case of insomnia. I turned the TV on to the Sundance Channel only to find the short films playing. I was channel surfing and noticed Christina Ricci’s face in black and white. I knew it had to have been older …

The movie “Bobby” is obviously one of the most star-studded movies of all time, but it isn’t that the stars are famous, it’s that they are good actors. From long-time favorites like Anthony Hopkins and Lawrence Fishburn to knew favorites like Lindsay Lohan, Shia Labeof, and …

1965 gave the world another Elvis Presley movie, this time called Girl Happy. It featured, once again, Shelley Fabares. She and the King had a real chemistry going, but I have to say that I hated her hairdo in this flick. She looked really funny with …

‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ is an action comedy film. It’s a film that has been done extremely well and it was truly a treat to have been able to watch it in theatres. There’s enough action and comedy in the movie to ensure that boredom doesn’t set it. The storyline …

Housebroken is a movie about parents who want their kids to move out. Well one parent who is played by Danny Devito, the mother (Katey Segal) is content with letting her twenty-ish sons mooch off her and her husband.
The appearance of the DVD cover led me to believe …

This was the movie that had won Nicole Kidman an oscar and it’s a very nice movie. The cast is Nicole Kidman as Ada Monroe, Jude Law as Inman, Renee Zellweger as Ruby Thewes, Natalie Portman as Sara, Cillian Murphy as Bardolph, and Giovanni Ribisi as Junior.
The movie is …

Ocean’s Thirteen was one of the most anticipated “threequels” this year. Among a myriad of third instalments, it was one of those that were expected to improve on their predecessors and it delivers well.
The clever and thrilling plot revolves around Danny Ocean’s attempt at avenging senior Ocean member Reuben’s …

Raising Helen was a movie which starred Kate Hudson, it about a woman whose sister unexpectedly dies in an accident with her husband, now she has to take care of his sister’s kids and juggle it with her demanding job and her temporary on hold fun life. At first …

Tomb of the Werewolf (2003)
A thorough, total and utter travesty and the only film I have ever seen that was both excruciating to watch and emtionally painful as well.
I’ve been reviewing several of Paul Naschy’s films on here lately. Naschy was Spain’s reigning king of horror in the late …

Synopsis: This animated Disney movie re-tells the story of Rapunzel with a few twists. Rapunzel (voiced by Mandy Moore) is a young woman with magical hair that has been locked in a tower all 18 years of her life. She is rescued from the tower by a thief who …

I went to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine in cinema, having already seen the previous X-Men movies and being familiar with the comics and animated series. And I was definitely impressed.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine, directed by Gavin Hood and staring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth as well as …

I really enjoyed the 2005 movie “White Countess.” The movie stars Natasha Richardson as Countess Sofia Belinskya and Russian Countess expatriated to Shanghai after the 1917 Russian Revolution. To support herself and her extended family Sofia works as a dance hall girl and sometimes prostitute. Despite her efforts her …

This movie, starring Johnny Depp, was actually very entertaining. Johnny Depp is always good, and in this movie, he didn’t disappoint. It keeps audiences into the story from beginning to end. The characters are also interesting. You feel a connection with the characters and care what happens to them. …

Before renting this movie, i had heard TONS of negative reviews. So who cares? The people who review movies in newspapers are CRAZY! Some of the best movies receive 2 or 3 stars, while absolutely atrocious movies receive 5! However, the fact that many of …

The 2007 film, “Balls of Fury” film that was supposed to be a comedy proved to be anything but. I normally enjoy comic films that are like this one, though this film was not very funny to me. Something about this film did not really catch my funny bone …

Salam-E-Ishq is a nicely directed movie by Nikhil Advani. Movie depicts the life of six couples through different perspectives. The star cast of movie is great. Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, John Abraham, Govinda, Aksahy Khanna and Sohel Khan; everyone was put into the appropriate roles by the director. I …

This movie, though with some violent scenes, for me, is one of my ‘feel good movies’ I can brag about having seen. The good guys in this movie, Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) and US Marshall Vince Larkin (John Cusack) did a very good job. I am also very …

Ohhh boy. I guess I should go ahead and warn you that this movie is a very low-budget yet hardcore German gay film. While not necessarily a pornographic movie, there are some rather explicit scenes, and one in particular that is really jarring to watch, no …

A Perry Mason Mystery: The Case of the Wicked Wives is another one of those movies made when Raymond Burr wasn’t able to show up as the Mason character. Instead of just making it a non-Mason flick as I would have preferred, they turned the scripts into mysteries …

I recently discovered I could load one of my childhood favorite movies on our Netflix instant watch viewer and, last night, for the first time in years, I watched the movie The Shakiest Gun in the West.
I remembered this being a great movie full of comedy and action. And, …

I got around to finally watching the remake of the 1981 movie “My Bloody Valentine.”
I normally like slasher flicks and, because of the nature of the movie, give them a little more in terms of consideration when it comes to the plot. But, this movie wasn’t very good.
You have …

A classical tale of boy meets girl or in this case boy dog meets girl dog. Showing the early years of Lady’s life, growing up in a respectable part of town, living the blue collar life. On the other side of the fence, we see the freelance life of …

In 1970, Carter’s Army was released, and somewhere along the line it’s been re-released under the name Black Brigade. Now what is interesting to me is that before writing my review, I was checking out the credits and ran across the first few lines of comments someone made …

From 1987, The Rosary Murders begins with a priest being murdered at a catholic hospital and the news that a woman is leaving the sisterhood to marry a non-catholic. She doesn’t quite make it, though, since she’s the next to be killed, and it’s quite the bloody scene, …

I have watched a few Tyler Perry films and decided to give “I Can Do Bad All By Myself” a chance. I really like Taraji Henson as an actress, and have always been a fan of hunky Adam Rodriguez. The story is centered on a group of …

I went to see this film opening night, and of course, the theater was packed with people dressed in wizard costumes with scars on their foreheads. Just like other avid readers of the Harry Potter books, I had been very critical of the previous films and came in with …

I am only sort of a romantic comedy fan. You can usually predict what will happen in the end and that bores the heck out of me. I did see the ending coming, it was predictable and trite, but the movie was still ok. Jennifer …

Wicked Little Things is a film very much like all the other horror thrillers wherein a family moves to a remote location in the wilderness in order to escape some kind of social threat. At any rate, this family of three moves into a home where …

The Bourne trilogy is one of the best modern day action trilogy’s of all time! This starts with a long and tragic story of a highly trained intelligence agent named Jason Bourne who is played by Matt Damon! Damon is picked up in the ocean by a fishing …

Peter Jackson is one of my favourite directors. Also movies such as those in the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit franchise are some of my favourites. Therefore it was definitely a given that I had to watch the last installment in the Hobbit movies, “The Hobbit: The Battle …

I sometimes enjoy watching children’s movies, especially when they have some wittiness and humor aimed at adults. Looney Toons: Back in Actio was a really fun movie, and appropriate for both children and adults. The movie featured Looney Toons characters such as Yosemite Sam, the Tazmanian Devil, Marvin the …

I’ve liked many of the movies that I’ve seen the actor Daniel Craig in, and the same goes for Rachel Weisz, and so the movie “Dream House” looks interesting enough for me to see it in theatres when it was released. Lucky for me I couldn’t get to see …

Tonight I decided that I was going to watch the movie “Attack the Block” even though I heard about it roughly a year ago. Back then when I had watched the trailer and seen one or two clips of the movie what I saw just did not impress me …

The kittens are brought up like aristocracy, they are taught manners, music, and painting. Edgar, Madame’s butler, is taking good care …

A group of my friends and I went to see this movie last week. Some of my friends had already seen it but were looking forward to seeing it for the second time, so I figured I would enjoy it.
This movie was fun to watch. The characters were pretty …

Every once in a while you have to go back about ten years or so and find those hidden cinematic gems that you might have missed. They are not always advertised no trailers. And in many cases, the films go directly to DVD for any number of …

Ok so I took my wife to see the much anticipated “Dark Knight” hoping that we would both enjoy it as much as the first one. We didn’t, but that’s not to say this isn’t a good movie. In fact, this is a great movie, but it …

Movies branching off into numerous genres tend to fail in the dumpster. If the director can manage to pull things off right then you have a pretty good movie on your hands. Save the Green Planet combines so many different kinds of movie genres that you will loose track …

I must admit that “Duplex” is definitely one of my Ben Stiller’s favourite movies, even though it was a cinema flop. I believe that Ben Stiller and the actress, Drew Barrymore make a great on screen couple and you simply cannot watch this movie and end up not having …

My wife and I recently watched The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (I will refer to the movie as “Caspian”). I enjoyed the movie, but it was not as entertaining or complex as The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe.
In Caspian, the four future kings and queens …
