The films, Big Momma House 1 and 2 are a huge tribute to the bravery of the actor, Martin Lawrence. I believe that Martin Lawrence is one of the best comedians of our time along with Rowan Atkinson.

The Good Shepherd,directed by Robert De Niro, presents the history of the Central Intelligence Agency through the events of one CIA agent, Edward Wilson. While the idea behind this film seems worthy, I found it, at 167 minutes, to be a tedious mess.
This is De Niro’s first official …

Before Merchant and Gervais brought the mockumentary back to our screens with The Office, there was Human Remains. Although its legacy remains in the minds of those who fell in love with back in 2000, it certainly hasn’t earned the success it deserves. The show follows a simple premise: …

I am a big fan of small movies, and I just watched another great one on DVD, called “Where God Left his Shoes.” The actors in it are relative unknowns, at least to me, and this movie received very little attention. The plot is quite a heart-wrenching story of …

Billy Madison is one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies. It is incredibly funny to watch, and it has you laughing the entire time. The movie was made for people who laugh at corny jokes. If you are not one of those people, you will not like the movie.

God is Great and I am Not is a French movie about love and being lost in different religions. It definitely relates to the “lost souls” nowadays. I guess many young people are living on earth and not sure what they want or what to believe in, …

Is Pseudoscience Fiction a genre? I’m not entirely sure what kind of film Vice was trying to be, but apparently it didn’t try very hard. This Westworld inspired thriller presents us with some fairly heavyweight themes and then fails to make any kind of attempt at tackling them.

A rather weak …

Yesterday was the fourth time I’ve registered for Netflix. I’ve been a member before but have cancelled my membership three times thinking we would be cutting back on our movie watching. And, once again, we found we are better off with the service.
The thing I like about Netflix is …

When my wife rented the movie “The Haunting of Molly Hartley” I wasn’t sure what to expect from it. On one hand, we’ve rented other thrillers in the past and have been very disappointed in them. On the other, the description of the movie looked someone compelling.
As it turns …
