The 40-Year Old Virgin (UR, 2005) movie
I underrated the quality of this film. As usual, I passed this over in movie theatres because I felt that perhaps it would be just too silly. And this time I was right—but it was silly in a fabulous way. I love how the humor is …
Netflix
A few years ago I was a bit reluctant to change my normal “video store stop” routine to try a “by mail” service. However after a family member suggested giving it a try during a free trial period, I was instantly hooked! I never thought that …
Spiderman 3 Movie
After watching ” Spider-Man 2 ” I was eager to watch “Spider-Man 3.” I managed to watch the movie on my TV and I was left with two words in my mouth: great spectacle! The film surpassed my expectations. In the cast were again Toby Maguire (Spiderman / …
Living With The Enemy Movie
I’ve watched this movie on HBO and it helped pass the time at first, but when the movie was in the middle part the plot becomes obvious and sort of predictable that the ending will be a good one. The actors and actresses aren’t even famous but at least …
‘Deadpool’ Movie
People had been clamoring for a “Deadpool” movie starring Ryan Reynolds for years. We came close with “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”. The actor was cast to play the reputed “merc with a mouth”, but while Reynolds shined in the early scenes, the actual Deadpool was a stunning disappointment. Nevertheless, fans still …
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Journey to the Center of the Earth was fantastic. This movie is 3D. You are given 3D glasses upon purchasing your ticket. As for the movie, it was quite good. The 3D effects are used well. I believe that they could’ve been used even more than they were, but …
Gidget Grows Up
There was a bit of hiatus between the original three Gidget movies and TV series of the early and mid-60’s to this made-for-TV movie of 1969, but it was worth the wait. Gidget Grows Up is in reality my third favorite of the entire Gidget franchise. It’s …
November Man (thriller movie)
The trailer for November Man didn’t make it come off as something that I would want to see in the theatres. For some reason, it just felt as if the movie wouldn’t be very good. However, when I watched it, even though I didn’t think it was great, it was …

I love this cinema, this cinema is where i mostly spent my time with my lovely lady in my past every weekend. I always enjoy going to this place to watch the latest movies. The price is very friendly compare to other cinema, especially if you have BCA Card …

Watchmen (2009)
Watchmen was a movie released in 2009 based on the enormously popular graphic novel with the same name. Personally I have not read the graphic novel, but I know many people who have and who said that the movie is an excellent interpretation. However, having seen the …
Sherry Baby
“Sherry Baby” is a movie with a great message to send back home about ex-women convicts. Although the interpretation of Maggie Gyllenhaal in the main role is excellent, this movie has a weak script and the story moves on a very slow pace.
This movie is about a woman Sherry …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 3
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood’s third episode may feel very nostalgic to viewers who watched the first Fullmetal Alchemist series. The Elric Brothers are in the town of Liore, investigating Father Cornello and his “miraculous works” that he performs with what appears to be a Philosopher’s Stone, the legendary amplifier …
Mamma Mia! Movie (2008)
I had only watched this movie recently as I thought it was corny, but to my surprise, it turned out to be really great! The movie was comedic and was kind of a musical, I surprised myself by really liking it, it was actually the first time I heard …
Star Wars: Episode 1- The Phantom Menace
When I heard that they were coming out with a prequel series to the original Star Wars trilogy, I was VERY excited. Everybody wanted to see one and we were finally going to get it. What we got is beyond disappointment. Star Wars Episode 1- The …
The Number 23
The Number 23 is a movie starring Jim Carrey. Carrey plays a serious role in the movie. He has really managed to make the transition from comedic actor to serious actor. He is very good in the role of Walter Sparrow, an ordinary man who becomes obsessed with the …
Punisher: War Zone, comic book action film by Lexi Alexander
Marvel has a lot of memorable characters. One of those characters that everybody knows is the Punisher. It may seem like an easy task to make a movie based around this character, but two prier films have shown that this character is better on paper that on the big …
Alamo Draft House Austin TX
Where else in Austin, Texas can you watch a great movie and drink beer and eat pizza at the same time? The Alamo Draft House is the place to do it all! The Alamo Draft House is a favorite among Austinites simply because of the novelty of being able …
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010) Movie
This is the third installation of the four-part series of the Twilight Saga, and it is far the most suspenseful and most action-packed yet! I had watched this movie twice in a span of 3 days and enjoyed every minute of it. The book is quite different from the …
The Wild (movie)
To look at The Wild from a technical standpoint, the animation here was just fine. But from a story standpoint, it was hard for me to differentiate between The Wild, Lion King and Madagascar. All deal with the same issues roughly, especially The Wild and Lion King. Both deal …

Brideshead Revisited
For those of you who are old enough you will remember the epic 11 hour series Brideshead Revisited which was without a doubt one of the best TV series ever to come out of England. If you go to the movie Brideshead Revisited expecting the same great script and …
“Two Thousand Maniacs” (1964 Film)
In the early ’60s, screenwriter and director Herschell Gordon Lewis created what became known as the “blood trilogy”- three overly-gory films that single-handedly created the “splatter” sub-genre of horror. 1964’s Two Thousand Maniacs succeeded Blood Feast as the second installment to this classic trilogy. In my opinion this is …
Movie rentals website AnimeForest.com
For years it has been a struggle to find a decent provider for Japanese animation rentals. Buying is costly, and it’s hard to know which ones are going to be great and which ones you’ll regret buying. However, chain rental stores like Blockbuster and Hollywood video simply …
Lucky Number Slevin (2006)
Lucky Number Slevin is a movie that most of yall have probably not heard of but it one of my favorite little unknowns. It is a great crime thriller with a power packed cast which includes Morgan Freeman, Ben Kingsley, Josh Hartnett, Lucy Lui and Bruce Willis. With all …

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
First off: “The Hobbit - an unexpected journey” looks absolutely amazing on a big screen, especially when viewed through 3D glasses. Not only do the scenic landscapes cover you in goosebumps, the amount of details is also awe-inspiring. Every single wart on every single, butt ugly ork, every hair …
Life of Pi Movie
“Life of Pi” is an enormously successful tale; and very visually appealing I think. The film is based on the global best-selling book of how a teenager drifts over the Pacific Ocean with a tiger. The two become captive in the lifeboat after the film’s vivid beginning. …
“Adam” Movie
The movie Adam is very interesting. It is about an adult with Aspergers syndrome which is similar to autism or some may call it high functioning autism. This movie was unique because they portrayed a normal man, not a genius or an idiot savant, but …
Killa Season: The Movie
Killa Season is an amature movie which had a very low budget and very few cameras and when you watch the movie you will see why nobody should ever make a movie this way. Appearing in this “gangster” movie are rap stars Juelz Santana, Hell Rell and Cam’ron and …

Moon: Movie
Moon is a very interesting and intriguing film that I found to be a very decent watch, if a little confusing at times.
I thought the idea for the back story was quite good, as it’s not something I’ve seen done successfully before. But the plot twists really make it …
Face of evil
Face of evil is one of my favorite movies that lifetime movie network plays. I had seen it a long time ago but this past weekend they showed it again. I saw it on and got interested in it and watched it again because I had forgotten what happened …
Movie Money Train
I just watched Money Train yesterday and oh my God, that movie is awesome! Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson and Jennifer Lopez really deliver a humorous, dramatic and action packed sense of their characters. This movie kind of reminds me of Four Brothers in the sense that Snipes and Harrelsons …
Spiderman 2
Spiderman 2 had a lot to live up to after the success of Spiderman 1. I personally loved the first Spiderman and was greatly anticipating the second installment. And after seeing it, while there are some great things about 2, I still believe the original Spiderman to …

Detective Turner played by Tom Hanks, is getting ready for a transfer to a better job in a bigger town. He …
The movie Home On The Range
Home On The Range was, in my opinion, not one of Disney’s best movies. I had absolutely no desire to see this movie when it came out. I saw the trailer and was completely and totally unimpressed by they movie. However even though I had decided …

Cowboys And Aliens movie
Hopefully you have loving friends and/or family members who have already warned you to stay away from this epic abomination, but in case you don’t-or if you are actually an adult considering seeing a movie whose very title screams “AWFUL!” louder than an atomic blast-DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE. …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This latest installment of the Indiana Jones series is my least favorite because of several things. It’s not as fun and entertaining; Harrison Ford as Henry “Indiana” Jones is no longer as hot as he was in the “Raiders of the Lost Ark”; and I don’t like the story …
The Ring Two
I am not sure if like the movie “The Ring”, “The Ring Two” was also based on the remake of a Japanese horror film. However, “The Ring Two” was the sequel of the movie “The Ring.” I would have preferred instead if this movie was a prequel to the …
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
One of my favorite Christmas movies is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. It is on TV every year, and I remember watching it even as a kid. Now I have the unedited DVD, which I enjoyed watching this year. This movie is definitely a classic Christmas movie. …
“Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox” movie
I have been enjoying the DC Animated movies. Granted, there are still a few that I need to see, but I’ve enjoyed a vast majority of them quite a bit. I hadn’t read the comic story that this entry was based on, and while I wouldn’t say …
A Kid in King Arthur’s Court
I have seen a book entitled “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” in my aunt’s library at her house which was written apparently by the author Mark Twain. However, I have never made an attempt to read the book so I am not sure if it is related …
