When I was born in 1968, Wizard of Oz had been showing annually on CBS for twelve years. My earliest memory of this perennial favorite was in early elementary school, when I joined the swelling ranks of people gathered to watch this huge, yearly event. It was as eagerly …

From the previews and the description on the box, I thought the movie Good Luck Chuck would be an excellent love story. What my wife and I sadly discovered was the movie wasn’t much better than a soft-core porn flick.
The idea of a guy who has a curse that …

Mister Roberts is a movie that revolves around a man named Doug Roberts. He is stuck on a shipping boat out in the middle of nowhere, acting as cargo officer for the U.S. Navy. Meanwhile, a war is going on and Doug feels restless that he is …

If there’s any question about the Veggie Tales movie “Wonderful Wizard of Ha’s” and how good it is, I want you to keep this in mind. We picked it up for my daughter through Netflix three weeks ago. She has watched it 2-3 times each day since that date …

Just last night, my best friend, my sister, and i watched Thirty Days of Night, a new vampire movie that has recently been released. It was probably one of the best vampire movies that I’d ever seen! It is nothing like those corny vampire movies that are released that …

At the beginning of the year, I immediately told my friends that my most anticipated 2016 film was Ang Lee’s new feature called “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk”. That didn’t changed until I found out the “Whiplash”-creator Damien Chazelle announced he has a new film coming out in December called …

This movie falls in the genre of Acrion/Crime/Drama/Thriller and stars Morgan Freeman as Jim, Christian Slater as Tom, Randy …

This was surely the worst film I have seen in over a year. For the director to say he spent his whole life wanting to re-make this film is a joke as he couldn’t of done a worse job. The storyline is exactly the same as in …

I was one of those people who actually thought that the movie Horrible Bosses was funny. Therefore, when I heard that there was going to be a sequel, was looking forward to seeing what they would do with it. However watching it was a different story. While it had a …

Midnight in Paris is a romantic comedy written and directed by Woody Allen. He is a very controversial character that has given us many motion pictures, some good ones but also some really odd. I never know what to expect from Woody Allen but I try to watch every …

I’m not really sure why but whenever Robin Williams is in a drama, I just can’t take him seriously. The Night Listener was the perfect example of this.
I made a serious effort to watch this movie last night and, though I tried, I just couldn�t get into it. It …

Now this has got to be, in my opinion, the best movie for 2008. Eagle Eye was a very very unique and interesting movie, starring the ever so hott Shia LaBeouf, Michelle Monaghan, and the beautiful Rosario Dawson.
The movie surrounds two main characters, Jejrry and Rachel, complete and …

I was not a fan of the Saw movies at first. But by the time the third one was due to be released, I had a newfound respect. This is because I like the way the director and writers have pulled together all three stories into one …

Nearly seven years ago writer and director Mark Brown created a funny romantic comedy called “Two Can Play That Game.” While not doing huge number, the movie received a lot of acclaim as being a funny and romantic film. Rumors of a sequel have been alive for …

Just yesterday I watched the new “Pride and Prejudice” on the CD, the movie didn’t live up to my expectations it was not all that good. The book gives sharp description of each character. Elizabeth is described as a beautiful intelligent girl but kiera knightly looked more like Joe …

The movie “Orphan” from 2009 was a must see for me after hearing about all the controversy surrounding it. I have heard that some were concerned that it would discourage prospective parents from adopting. I would assume, after seeing the film, that these people were basing their fears on …

I still think that the movie “Trapped” might have been the best movie I have seen the actor Stewart Townsed star in for quite some time. I personally like the movie not only because the actor Stewart Townsend was in it but because I thought the movie kept me on …

In the first place, Prom Night is a not a funny and romantic comedy about a high-school prom night filled with friends and love. Yes, the movie is filled with friends, to be exact the character Donna’s friends, but this movie is all scary and a thriller! …

I went to see Pirates of the carribbean 3 with my 11 year old daughter. We loved it. I thought it was better than the second one Dead Man’s Chest. Johnny Depp is hilarious.I enjoyed the part where he was “hallucinating” and there were Jack Sparrows everywhere on …

What I have found with comedies is you either have ones that give you a few laughs or movies that make you laugh non-stop from start to finish. The movie Rat Race is the latter of the two and one I would recommend to anyone.
The movie features a list …

Another vintage movie that I’ve seen lately is The Bigamist. I’ve never seen it before. It’s really a classic soap opera piece that has much of it glossed over becomes of the standards and practices of the day. That actually surprises me, how they made movies …

I’m not sure what the problem was, but the three d glasses which were made available for this episode but they didn’t work all that well. I suspect that I sit closer to my TV than most people, so I’m going to assume that was it for now.
The plot …

Cameron Diaz and James Marsden star in The Box as married couple, Norma and Arthur. They receive a mysterious box on their front porch, which contains a device called the Button Unit. It’s basically a wooden box with a button on top. Norma gets a visit from a strange, …

Man, how much cooler can you get? The 1999 movie, Armageddon, is one of my all time favorites. I love Bruce Willis. And for once, he’s not really in his Die Hard McClane character. He’s still a tough as nails oil driller named Harry Stamper who is charged with …

I watched the movie “Dolores Clairbourne” for the second time recently with my brother. I watched it because it was based on the novel by the popular horror and thriller writer Stephen King who is one of my favourite authors, and even though I didn’t know what the movie …

I have a family member who happens to love Christmas movies. Personally, I find them pretty repeditive and lame. I’ve seen so many of them that I’m frankly a little sick of the typical Christmas movie.
Recently we saw that our local library had a Christmas movie that …

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is the final movie in the Pirates trilogy. I was not very high on Dead Man’s Chest and was hoping At World’s End would reinvigorate my love I had for Pirates 1. However, what I got dissipated my love for …

This mini-series was such a pleasure to watch. The story is based on a novel by George Eliot. The title character, Daniel, supposedly an illegitimate son of a wealthy English aristocrat, was raised like a gentleman. He is a well educated young man who has plenty of money, but …

A darling little movie that my family loves to watch (yes, even my husband likes this chick flick) is Sweet Home Alabama. Reese Witherspoon is such a cute actress with such endearing talent, that she is perfect as Melanie. This may be a glorified case of you can take …

This movie is based on a horror / ghost story by Henry James. A young governess is hired to take care of two children, a boy and a girl. The number 1 condition their uncle has hired her on is to never contact him about the children - never. …

I recently went to the cinema to watch Death Race and I was not disappointed. The plot is as follows. In 2012 the United States economy collapses and at that point on inwards life for everyone is just not the same anymore. Once a NASCAR champion …

Blair Witch Project 2 is a movie that I like because of Jeffery Donovan, but that’s about it. I had seen the movie a long time ago when it was still in the theater, and thought it was so-so. At least it’s better than the first movie. It picks …

Now many people are famiiar with the popular film in 1997 about the crashing of the ship titanic in 1912 starring Leonardo DiCaprio. What many people don’t know si taht there was also an animated film based on the tradgedy relaesed a couple years after the 1997 version made …

Reality Bites is a nice romantic movie with the back drop of young students. The movie is said as a path breaking movie of this type. Ben Stiller directed this movie and is his first movie as a director. The movie has Ben Stiller, Winona Ryder, and Ethan Hawke …

This is supposed to be a more artsy depiction of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Paul Morrissey, perhaps the weirdest filmmaker ever, directed this. It stars Udo Kier as dr Frankenstein, the rest are mostly amateurs. I don’t know if I would call this film artsy, but it certainly was …

In the movie “Collateral” one can see the actor, Tom Cruise with a strange hair colour and the actor, Mark Ruffalo with gel in his hair and sporting an earring. Apart from these funny facts, “Collateral” had to be a Tom Cruise drama movie; however I felt that the …

Herbie Fully Loaded is one of those movies that I probably shouldn’t like, but somehow I really loved it. That doesn’t mean I’ll have the movie sitting out where my friends can see it, but I do love it. When I first heard about the movie I was pretty …

When I saw this film come out in theatres, I thought that it would be just like all the others out there. There are always those teen films with the requisite killer, and one of those teens ends up dying, etc. etc. But this movie was …

The second in the original star wars triogly was the Empire Strikes back. this movie in my opinion was a bridge between the first installment the Star Wars, and the third movie of the trioplogy the Return of the Jedi.
Again we meet Luke as he is a …

Fool’s Gold is a genreless movie fresh to the theaters. Well, they say it has a genre, but once you watch the movie, the genre becomes rather unapparent. The movie is about a bickering married couple (Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson) on the edge of divorcing who team up …

Meet The Fockers is a movie that comes on the heels of Meet The Parents. Greg and Pam are about to marry and Pam wants her stuffy, conservative parents to meet Greg’s parents. What little we know about Greg from Meet The Parents will let you know that his …

We watched Russel Crowe the other night in a movie that came out a few years ago called Master and Commander.
Russel Crowe is another actor that I find does an extremely good job when he portrays charactors and acts. In this movie takes place during the Napoleonic …

Wong Kar-Wai’s blistering masterpiece about two couples moving in next to each other in an apartment house. The husband, respectively the wife in each couple are never shown. The husband that is shown finds out his wife is having a secret affair with the neighbour, and he seeks contact …

I have heard of the movie The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother before but, even though it has been around as long as I have (about 35 years), I have never really taken the time to watch it. This should come as a surprise to many because I …

The Fast and the Furious, Tokyo Drift is the third movie of Fast and Furious. The story of this sequel is not so different from the movie before, it’s about car racing and a lot of good and modification car of course with fight and conflict between the main …

I am a big fan of horror movies, but not gore. Most movies with tons of gore seem to use it as a substitute for plot or character development. When I find a movie that is genuinely creepy without resorting to gore or cheap scares, I take notice.
Dorothy …

If you�re a big fan of the television show Cold Case, then you may want to consider renting the movie Vanished if you haven�t seen it yet.
While the script leaves quite a bit to be desired, the movie and the intrigue it creates isn�t too bad. It�s not great, …

This is not a family movie! There aren’t any swearing in this film except the F-word was said once. Knight and Day features a commando like guy, going to protect a battery and a high school student, meets up with this innocent girl who has a place to go …
