Truman with Jim Carrey and Ed Harris.
This was a different kind of movie that had me expecting the slapstick humor of which Jim Carrey built his career, but I was sadly disappointed.
There are few effective comedic actors in the industry and Carrey is one of them. …

The very best comparison in order to Avatar is actually that it’s the Star Wars with this decade. Personally, having already been born within 1984 and never having seen the initial Star Conflicts trilogy till I had been 15 or even 16, I’ve never truly understood exactly what the …

What a silly movie. Obviously, it was inspired by “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” in some weird way. The movie begins with students talking about sightings of some monster on campus. The descriptions of the monster vary, and it is clear that some of the “witnesses” are simply making …

Victory with Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill.
When I first saw the title along with one of my favorite actors, I thought that it would be an adventure film with plenty of action. Boy was I wrong. This movie is so slow and action free …

What a disappointment! Over the weekend hubby and I decided to binge watch some movies that were on our “to see” list. One of these movies was The Transporter Refueled movie, the newest of the Transporter series. We’ve seen all of the other Transporter movies and we loved each one …

Cheaper By The Dozen 1 (the first movie) is a great story. It’s about a family called the Bakers who have twelve children. Tom Baker played by Steve Martin is classic in his part. He stays true to the comical type of actor that he is. Tom’s wife played …

This movie, A Mighty Heart is played out by Angie, or known as Angelina Jolie. I have always respected her in the sense that she’s not afraid to play out roles that are scary or pretty threatening.
Like in A Mighty Heart, she plays the wife to a reporter, acted …

I thought Avatar was a fantastic film, fully meeting my expectations and then some with its brilliantly produced content.
It is the films special effects that have been praised more than anything, and I have to agree with the general consensus when I say that James Cameron has done a …

The Hudsucker Proxy with Tim Robbins and Paul Newman.
This bizarre film takes place in New York City in the year 1958. In the opening segment we are in a board room filled with corporate fat cats. As they listen to the annual report, …

Christmas Vacation is the only Christmas movie that I watch EVERY year and it never gets old. All of the characters are really great and genuinely funny. Chevy Chase certainly stills the show but kudos need to also go to cousin Eddie. The dynamic duo of …

To me, Iron Man is one of the top five comic book movies ever made, right up there with Superman I, Spider-man 2, and the Dark Knight. Robert Downey Jr. plays Tony Stark and is the best “alter ego” of any of the super hero movie actors. …

If you are a fan of Japanese Animation, you will find alot of entertainment with watching this film. Impossible characters with inhuman strengths and powers are the ingredients that make this movie a delicious adventure. A ninja for hire is tricked by an old man into fighting lest he …

Exceptionally good movie that is all I want to say about this one. The debutant director, Neeraj Pandey did very good job by presenting such a thoughtful movie to the Indian film industry. Keeping in mind that this is his first movie, his efforts should be applauded. Everything was …

I am quite a fan of all this animation movies, they always entertain me and my girlfriend, they are funny, technically splendid, they usually have a good plot, and they are almost never superficial or boring.
Well i didn’t enjoy this one at all.
The impression i had is this:
They did …

I don’t know what they may say about Jeepers Creepers but I think this one of the scariest movies I’ve seen. It’s got a sequel Jeepers Creepers II, shown in 2003 but the first one is scarier. The creeper (played by Jonathan Breck) is some kind of …

Separate Lies was released in 2005 and I knew as soon as it started that I probably wouldn’t like it. For one thing, the list of actors, overall, aren’t my style. Tom Wilkinson, for example, supposedly as talent, but he bores me, not to mention he’s often …

I feel like a child again, caught in a world of fantasy and make-belief; and everything will turn out all right if I behave myself and try harder.
The starting music sets the pace it is catchy and rocking. I feel affection and compassion for Mumble, the …

One of our good friends is a movie buff and so has a collection of hundreds of DVDs which he brings over from time to time so we can all watch them. One of the ones that he bought that really intrigued me was the movie ‘A Haunting in Connecticut’, …

A Dead Calling is the kind of movie that I would only watch as a last resort, or because it was cheap. In my case it was a little of both. My local video rental place was clearing out some of their older movies, and I managed to grab …

A lot of horror movies, especially in recent years, just don’t live up to the hype: “The Unborn” is an exception.

Modern suburbia, a world where the paper boy flys by, neighbors pick flowers and the flad is raised every morning at dawn. Even if it isn’t your neighborhood, you’ll be able to sympathize with the one that Tom Hanks inhabits in this great family comedy with mild scares and …

SPOILER ALERT! Do not read this review if you haven’t viewed the film and plan on seeing it anytime soon.
Saw this film last week and I thought it was ok. It’s pretty much like all the other hostage taker - negotiator type films before it. Here, John …

“The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies” is a decent effort by director Peter Jackson to wrap up the trilogy based on the novel, ‘The Hobbit’. Now I use decent very loosely as it falls far below the quality of the first two installments in the trilogy. When I watched …

I have always loved animated movies. I have heard of this movie How to Train Your Dragon and it actually was on IMAX theatres because it was 3D. I did not see it in 3D but it is alright because I am not really keen on watching it like …

I really tried hard to at least give this film a chance. I liked that it was set in Louisiana. I liked that the directors chose to focus on the solstice aspect. I even resigned myself to the fact that there would be several college kids …

This movie premiered on Lifetime Movie Network last Sunday. It premiered after there little event went off called “the perfect sunday”. I enjoyed watching most of the movies that day but this one had to be my favorite that day. The actors, especially the main two actors were really …

I am always saying “Be careful what you wish for, as fate it seems, is not without a sense of humor” and to this day I continue to prove that very same thing. Nothing that you wish for even comes to be exactly the way you wish it; instead, …

Insurgent starts …

Its safe to say that vampires aren’t what they used to be. The dark forces of evil that they are in books, like Bram Stoker’s Dracula and films like The Lost Boys, have been brushed aside for more romanticized versions in True Blood and Twilight. Fortunately, there …

Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland is the director’s biggest film to date. Yeah sure you could say that some of his other films are better and I would agree, but this one was a cash cow. Disney knew this so in 3 short months the movie went from being …

This is the everyday life among some individuals in a circus companionship. The basic idea is the same as Fellini’s La Strada or Bergman’s Sawdust & Tinsel. The Greatest Show on Earth was directed by the legendary silent filmmaker Cecil B. Demille (during his sound period however) and is …

Nanny Mcphee is a bit boring film with some unconvincing scenes which no logic. Emma Thompson plays Nanny McPhee in the movie and she has some magical powers which is not really convincing. Cedric Brown played by Colin Firth ia a widower and has seven children who are extremely …

When I first saw the movie “Inkheart” advertising to be released in theatres I somehow assumed that it was supposed to be a fantasy film which starred the actor Brendan Fraiser. Therefore at one point I was even planning on saving some money to watch it while it was …

I remember first seeing a preview for Pan’s Labyrinth and thinking to myself, “This movie’s gonna be stupid!” and “It’s a rip-off of Chronicles of Narnia!”. After hearing about how great the movie supposedly was, of course I had to see for myself. Now I can say that this …
