Firefly
I am an ardent fan of Joss Whedon’s television shows, I have been a fan ever since the start of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and loved every moment of Buffyverse, till the story came to a dramatic conclusion in the Buffy spin-off, Angel.
Disappointed at the thought of not …
Slither movie not worth watching
When I saw the previews for Slither on TV, I thought it was going to be a good horror movie. After all, you can’t go wrong with slimy slugs that take over people’s bodies and turn them into zombies.
Unfortunately, the makers of the movie missed big-time and turned what …
You can count on me movie
Critically acclaimed drama about a woman who alone has to take care of her son. One day her brother comes to visit and things start to change in the relationship betweem the mother and her son.
I do admit that some of the scenes here are heartwarming and that the …
Men In Black II
The sequel to Men In Black suffers from the same disease that plagues most sequels, it fails to live up to the expectations that viewers had after the masterpiece of the first movie. One of the saving graces of this sequel is that the main characters come back, even …

Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
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 …
Movie Munich 2005
Munich the place where 1972 Olympics were held. And where eleven Israeli athletes were murdered, it was the Olympics of Black September (the terror outfit that carried out the brutal killings of innocent people).

Network movie
What a deeply prophetic and darkly funny film this is. The performances from Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway and William Holden are absolute perfection, and Sidney Lumet’s directing is brilliant as well, but the screenplay by Paddy Chayefsky is the true diamond of this movie. It is shockingly …
National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets
I watched National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets on DVD the other day when my friend came over and we were trying to finish off some work projects.
I thought that this part 2 is going to be not fascinating at all but I was wrong. It …
Sky High movie
Sky High is a 2005 move that mixes elements of both the superhero and teen movie genres into an enjoyable, exceptionally fun movie going experience. It’s not the best movie around, and certainly isn’t the best composite of it;s two respective genres, but it is still a very watchable …

The gospel of John (Movie)
Many people said that this movie is boring and that those who think that the movie is very interesting must be lying for the sake of religious reason. Well, as the saying goes, one man’s meat is another poison, and therefore, one man’s poison can also be to the …
The movie Meet the Robinsons
Meet the Robinsons looked like a cute movie from the start. When I saw the previews I could not wait to see the movie. Created by Disney I thought that it would be a wonderful addition to the collection. I did finally get to see and I was …

Drive (2011 movie)
I had never seen a trailer for this movie, but rented it simply because a friend wanted to see it. Overall, I would say pass on this movie unless you are interested in a lot of fighting and gore.
I was really impressed with the start of the movie. The main …
Donnie Darko movie
The most refreshing american film from recent years was made by a young independent filmmaker named Richard Kelly. His style, both in the visual aspect and with the narrative, is like a mixture between David Lynch and something completely new. It’s a dreamlike film about the teenage boy Donnie …
Secretariat movie
Secretariat stars Diane Lane and John Malkovich as well as several other actors and actresses. It is a Disney movie about the great racehorse Secretariat, and the people who stood behind him and trained him to win the Triple Crown and become one of the most famous racehorses ever …
Evidence of Blood movie
Evidence of Blood came out in 1998 and like the true, old south, it moves slowly. No, it doesn’t move, it crawls. Everything is told in a deliberate, snail-like drawl that is agonizingly slow. I’m all for murder mysteries, but I need something to keep me …
Zodiac
My aunt treated me to the movies the other night, and we decided to watch Zodiac. It was just released in my country, and I have a great time watching this movie. Here is my review.
The movie is about a killing spree that sort of terrorized San …

Megamind animated movie
It’s true that lately I have not seen any comedy or animated films, at least not as I would have liked.
Animation films offer yet unexplored possibilities, mixed genres, the revolution of the main characters, change scenery.
So even if we fundamentally look at about the same kinds of movies, some …

Dr. Marvin is a well-known psychiatrist who has just written a soon-to-be bestselling book called �Baby Steps�, which teaches people to take situations one …
The Gospel of John
The Gospel of John is my favourite of all four gospels because, rather than focussing on historical facts like the other three, it goes deeper into Jesus’s teachings and philosophy. From the very beginning, it tries to explain the world through what later is was going to become the …
The Wedding Singer movie
The Wedding Singer, starring Drew Barrymoore and Adam Sandler, is one of my favorite movies because it makes you believe in love.
Set in the 80’s it has a fun and funky tone. If this isn’t your favorite decade you might not enjoy it so much, but I was …
Chronicle (Movie )
First off, I’m going to say although I don’t absolutely love the found footage genre, I absolutely without a doubt loved Chronicle. Of course I had my problems with it but at the end of the day it was a really good movie. My favorite thing about this film …
X - Men 3 (movie)
Last night, my husband and I rented the third X Men movie on demand. I rarely praise movies or feel like they would be good enough to acutally go and see in the theater, but I must admit, I was really impressed with this movie. I think …

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
I’ve been eying this movie since it was released in the U.S. last December. So, when it’s finally showed here in our area I did not hesitate to watch. Well, the trailer itself would give you some curiosity what is the movie all about. Actually, I haven’t read the …
Movie UP
Brilliant; refreshing; fun for the whole family. Need I say more?
Disney & Pixar Animation Studios have out done themselves yet again. Packed with adventure, GOOD moral values, and family friendly humor, this movie easily captivates one’s imagination. Most importantly, however, not only will the children be entertained, but the …
“Monsters” movie
Taking up for watching “Monster” I was hoping that it will be explosive combination of “The way” and “District 9″. So I was hoping for poetic road movie, as confirmed in the post-apocalyptic mood, which would become the matrix for an ambitious aesthetic, making a problems, science fiction story. …

Company is a sequel of the earlier Ramu Production Satya. This films marks the debut of Vivek Oberoi, and he has done a good job playing the gangster in the film. The story is about underworld, and the organized crime that takes place under it. Devgan, takes …

Gulliver’s Travels (2010 Film)
Jack Black is one of those actors who I can’t seem to not laugh at. He is just funny to me, his facial expressions, his voice changes, his general presence in films and responses to other elements and actors in films leaves me breathless with laughter. And while I …
