I watched this movie before it received, as it happened, widespread critical acclaim, and so I actually was watching it without any expectations. And I should say, that when I started reading news reports about all the recognition that this movie got, I was rather surprised. It was puzzling …

Bette Davis, as she became more mature possessed knowing character traits with a rustic edge incorporated. She was really never the innocent young girl type. I would say she fit more the role of a person who knew how to survive life. She was always the …

The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …

If you’re a fan of giant robots or giant monsters, the Pacific Rim movie is definitely a thrill to watch. The movie got hyped all the way to its theatrical release, what with director Guillermo del Toro promising a great homage that should introduce the two genres to the …

Time and again Citizen Kane gets selected as “the best film ever made” on different listings. There is so much to say about the genius Orson Welles’ debut film, but I’ll restrict myself to the most important points and my own view. The film is a very complex story …

I hesitated in watching the movie “The Danish Girl” for a long time because I wasn’t sure that I would find it fascinating enough for me to like. However, eventually I warmed to the idea and decided to take the risk watching it, especially after I realised that it received …

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu is mexican filmmaker who showed his amazing talent half a decade ago with Amores Perros. 21 grams is his second film and it tells a very tragic and complex story, all told in flashbacks, of three people who meet each other for different reasons that are …

I don’t normally like the actor Jack Black in movies, and I don’t normally like his movies either. In fact, one of the few which I remember liking was “Saving Silverman”. This is why I found it so difficult to watch the movie “School of Rock” after it was …

Grindhouse had to be one of the most disappointing movies I have ever witnessed. This is not because the film was awful, just that it was (for lack of a better word) a firmly average film that did not really offer anything new to the horror genre. The idea …

I’m not a big fan of action-packed thriller movies. However, when my husband bought this DVD and asked me to watch with him, I was impressed that it kept me engrossed right till the end of the movie. I thought that I’d have lost interest in it half way.
I …

Last night was probably the 10th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say I enjoyed it as much as I did first time I saw it.
Of all the movies that are based on classic tales, this spin on Washington Irving’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow …

I have to say Anchor Man is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen in my life. I think this movie was very good and the main star Will Ferrel did a awesome job in the film. Will Ferrel played the part of Ron Burgandy and was very …

The great performance (600 million dollars) of the first feature movie about the Smurfs (2011) made the continuation of their adventures an inevitability. And it is already a fact - three-dimensional, dynamic and colorful as usual. In the center of the story is Gargamel, who is a superstar in …

My boyfriend loved Lost Boys so when Lost Boys: The Tribe came out on Tuesday we made a trip to Wal-mart to get it. The DVD cost around $20.
First of all I’ll start with the cover. It is neat. You look at it in one …

Mario Bava’s breakthrough picture has an opening scene that astounded a whole generation of filmmakers. It is so filled with mood and gothic beauty, but at the same time frightening in its graphical violence. The story here is about a witch waking up from her slumber in 1700th century …

I absolutely love this movie! I remember when I was about 10 years old and I would watch it all the time in the dark at night. But I loved the acting. The language was fluid to me, like flowing water, and I hung onto the actors …

I pretty much like this particularly episode of Dead Like Me. It’s called In Escrow and deals with the Lass home, which has been on the market. Linda, the realtor, calls and says someone wants to buy the house, so now they go into escrow.
Teryl Rothery plays …

I must admit that recently I decided to take a nostalgic trip back to the 80’s and watched “Pretty in Pink”. In my opinion, this is one of the best movies for Molly Rigward along with “Sixteen Candles”. According to certain reviews, it also seems to be Molly Rigward …

I’ve found it so strange that I had never heard of the 2007 movie “There Will Be Blood” until late last year. Even then I still had no idea what to expect of it because of the title. A major part of me figured that the plot might have something …

Daisies is a Czech film about two girls, best friend, and their everyday life. With the most lively images, this story is told in a most unconventional and experimental way. It’s not the common narrative you see in a Hollywood movie. No, Daisies is more fixed on the moods …

Some people do have talent but they don’t have the means. Others do have the means but they simply don’t have talent. This is the main storyline of “The Ice Princess” featuring the actress, Michelle Trachtenberg of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame in her on screen main role as …

I watched Into the Wild yesterday. I think most or part of the plot story that is in this story is based on true events. Sean Peen excels this time and this is a very good movie which leads you to think long after the movie’s finished. …

With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …

Sydney Pollack directed this mesmerizing spy thriller, Three Days of the Condor, in 1975. It stars Robert Redford as Joseph Turner, a man who reads books for a living. He’s employed by the CIA. His very unassuming place of employment seems low key and simple enough. …

The movie Erin Brockovich is a very inspiring movie. She was a single mom of three that proved that she could make it. I was really impressed how she fought for the people in the town against a big company.
Even though the film is loosely based on a true …

The ‘Quiet Man’(directed by John Ford in 1951) is a sweet unadultarated love story between and Irish-American Boxer named Sean Thorton (played by John Wayne) and a hundred percent Irish woman (played by Maureen O’Hara).
Her temper is no lie and Sean has a hard time wooing her. By the …

The Rock and Sean William Scott play in this movie as the two main characters. They are really good together in this movie, very funny together also. There were two parts in the movie that I thought were really funny. The rest of the movie was also funny but …

Normally, I don’t appreciate it when classic stories are being messed with, modernized, turned into musicals, etc. However, this attempt to Americanize the beloved Christmas story by Charles Dickens somehow turned out all right. Based, of course, on “A Christmas Carol,” this movie transforms the Victorian London into America’s …

When I saw the previews for Final Destination 3, I remember thinking the producers were overkilling on an otherwise great franchise. When I watched the movie on DVD, I found I was right.
The plot of the movie seemed a bit forced and was confusing from the start. Beginning with …

Overall this was an alright movie, I thought that it could have been a lot better. It kind of dragged out some during the beginning of the movie. There was also too much sex in the movie, I thought anyway. It’s about this accountant who meets this guy and …

The 50 Whodunit?s Classics DVD Set is a four disk collection of vintage murder mysteries and the like. The main thing to realize is that this set is an economical accumulation of movies and movie serials. The quality of the films and TV shows vary greatly. …

Considering Damian Wayne’s reception as Robin has been mixed, to say the least, it was an interesting choice to make a movie that showcased him and brought him into the DC Animated Movie Universe.
While this does take place within the “New 52″ world that DC had built within …

Mrs. Doubtfire, the movie will always be in my heart. A special one, that is. It starts off with Robin Williams, being separated from his wife and they have children together.
He loves them so much and wanting to be close to them, disguises himself as a …

While watching the movie 2001 Manics, I couldn’t help but think that it was the ultimate B-movie which I was usually so turned off of watching. It had lots of sex, gore, bad acting and young people which is what most B-movies usually has, not to mention the lack …

I really feel like wanting to smack right out of this kid, Esther. The movie is not in a horror genre but more to gory. Orphan the movie, is unexpected and you will be surprised at the revelation. I’m not going to tell you what it is …

Since the dawn of movie making, there have always been a few actors that take weird, off the wall, ecentric roles instead of traditional leading men or leading lady roles. Such is true with current Boston Legal actor, James Spader. He appeared in a great 1994 film called Stargate …

I recently saw the movie Milk with Sean Penn. He is a really good actor and played this part perfectly. I wasn’t familiar with the real Harvey Milk, but I felt like I was after watching Penn’s portrayal.
Harvey Milk was the first openly gay councilmen to be elected …

This is a amazing movie. Every one did an amazing job acting. I don’t think that they could have done a better job acting or directing this movie. I loved it and if you haven’t seen it yet you should. Renee Zellweger plays in it and I liked her …

Stupidity was a documentary made for the Documentary Channel in Canada. It is about exactly what it says it is about: Stupidity.
Truthfully I have to say I had higher hopes for the documentary than they ended up fulfilling. Some of the stuff at the beginning …

I like historical dramas so when I found out about The Butler I knew immediately that I just had to see it, even if I wasn’t able to view it in theatres at the time. Shortly after the amount of bad reviews and ratings it had received from regular viewers …

There is a lot of fanfare around this Jim Henson and Frank Oz movie, which supposedly features some fantastic looking puppets. It is one of the movies released for PSP and has been hyped a lot. Supposedly it is a great movie. After watching five minutes of it I …
