The Mirror Has Two Faces movie
Barbra Streisand directed and starred in The Mirror Has Two Faces, a 1996 movie that co-starred Jeff Bridges and Lauren Bacall. The great Bacall was stellar as Streisand’s mother. What a duo those two made. It was like watching American royalty with two great and dynamic …
Casino Royale
Casino Royale is a remake to a more modern day version of an old James Bond movie. The new version is full of action like you would typically see in a James Bond movie. However it was a bit more violent than most I have ever seen before. James …
A Royal Affair (2012 Film)
As a fan of Madds Mikkelsen, I was eager to watch the film, A Royal affair. I’m not so big on history movies, but I figured I would give this particular movie a chance. It’s described to be a romance drama film, which usually makes for a good watch. …

Flightplan
I watched Flightplan yesterday shown on the local TV channel and it is so good to see such a good actress Jodie Foster, acting once more.
I know that this was a movie that was shown years back but somehow or rather, it is just so good to be …
Duplex movie
I must admit that “Duplex” is definitely one of my Ben Stiller’s favourite movies, even though it was a cinema flop. I believe that Ben Stiller and the actress, Drew Barrymore make a great on screen couple and you simply cannot watch this movie and end up not having …
The Lost Boys Movie
Every few months I get the urge to watch The Lost Boys again, and considering the sheer amount of movies I have, that’s saying a lot. I was only a kid when the movie first came out, and I didn’t have the chance to see it until I was …
The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012 Coming-of-Age Drama Film)
Some films do really affect me far better in my second watch than my first. Back then, 4 years ago, when I first saw this movie, it was nothing but a coming-of-age drama with a twisted end, one that I was so eager to watch because my ultimate crush, Emma …
Confessions of a Shopaholic
I think I mentioned once before that I have a huge crush on actress Isla Fisher. In fact, she’s the only reason I took the time to watch the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic because I figured it would end up being a corny and boring chick flick.
However, the …
Movie : Haeckel’s Tale
Haeckel’s Tale is yet another one hour short film from the Showtime Series Masters of Horror. Directed by John McNaughton I would say its definitely the weakest entry from the first season of the show and in the bottom five of both seasons of the show. John …

Them!
My daughter wanted to watch a movie with me yesterday but I was getting a bit sick of cartoons. I ended up making her a deal. I told her I would watch a movie with her but it had to be the black and white horror movie “Them!” She …
“Meet Joe Black”: The Movie with Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt
“Meet Joe Black” classifies as one of the top ten movies Hollywood has produced, in my opinion at least. The movie was loosely based on the black and white film “Death Takes a Holiday.” Brad Pitt played Death, Anthony Hopkins played Bill Parrish, and Claire Forlani played Susan Parrish. …
Money for Nothing,1993 movie

The Wicker Man (Original)
I watched the original Wicker Man and I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. I’m not a fan of horror and although this was labelled as a horror film it really wasn’t. The ending was quite horrorific but the rest of the film was not. …

Movie: “Grandma’s Boy” (2006)
Although this film received poor reviews upon release, I have to say it’s one of my all-time favorite films. It’s one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s one of those movies you can watch over and over, and it’s still hilarious.
Alex (Covert) is a 35-year-old video game …

The movie “Pretty in Pink” was possibly one of the most popular movies of the 20th century, as well as one of the most popular teenage movies of all times. It is so popular it has a cult following, and it was also one of the movies which helped …
I Legend movie
Independence Day, Wild. Wild West, Men in Black, I Robot, I legend. Main ingredient Will Smith plus flat imagination, lots of special effects. I fell asleep, I felt ripped off. There were dramatic moderately high points in the movie. The scripts were not original, Smith …

In the film, Harrison plays the United States President and is kidnapped onboard the presidential plane, along with his family. And, unlike many other presidents, who might sit and do nothing, he ends …
The Parent Trap (remake)
I am very skeptical about remakes, and since the original The Parent Trap was one of my all time favorite family films, when I saw the remake arriving on the scene in 1998, I was concerned, big time. Happily, though, I found the remake to be delightful. It’s …
Shaun of the Dead

Bubble movie
“Bubble” is directed by Stephen Soderbergh. Soderbergh is the brillian mind behind such films as “Sex, Lies and Videotapes” and “Traffic”. Whats sad about this is that “Bubble” Is terrible. I’m not sure how a great director can go from hollywood blockbusters to bombing …
Dead Like Me: Ashes to Ashes
Reggie goes goth in Dead Like Me: Ashes to Ashes, and I’m not crazy about it because she ignores her precious golden retriever, JD. While it’s a temporary condition, it simply turns me off. I don’t like animals suffering in any way due to human eccentricities.
The Daisy …
Three and Out
I had never heard of this British film before, but it stars the new Bond girl, Gemma Arterton, and MacKenzie Crook from The Office fame, so I gave it a go. It’s a new film (2008) but, as with many British films, I haven’t seen it advertised anywhere so …

When the trailer for Sex and the City …
X-Men: Apocalypse 2016 Superhero Movie
I read and heard a lot of bad reviews about the new X-Men: Apocalypse movie. This was from both dissatisfied movie goers and fans of the comic, thus I just wrote it off as a bad movie initially and put it out of my head. However, when someone I knew …
Turn right, Turn left movie
This movie is really great; It was produced in Hongkong and was starred by a Japanese hearthrob and a singaporean actress. I have enjoyed watching it because of the unique and cute mild love story. The characters have met 10 years ago as a child and have never talked …
