Movie: “Evan Almighty” (2007)
This movie was a sequel to the 2003 comedy classic “Bruce Almighty”, but it did absolutely no justice to “Bruce”. “Evan Almighty” was sheer disappointment from start to finish.

Danika (R, 2006)
Marisa Tomei is one of those actresses who pops up in an unexpected film and steals the show. She did so in “Danika”—”a film about a woman who has a tight hold on her children, and is a bit overprotective. This is the way the film is …

The Love Guru movie
I enjoy a Mike Meyers movie now and then. He has not made a movie I really liked since Austin Powers but my Neflix list was empty and I decided to give this movie a try. It was about like any Mike Meyers or Jim Carrey movie. …
Gun (Bluray), 2011 action film
Famous rapper, video game hero, and now for some reason movie star and maker, 50 Cent gives us his next film entitled Gun. The decision for this movie to be a direct to DVD film was a smart one because, after a second viewing, Gun is no more than …

Land of the Dead (2005) Movie
Land of the Dead is the fourth zombie film directed by the master of zombies, George A. Romero. I am not overly familiar with Romero’s previous movies to be honest. My favourite all time zombie movie is Return of the Living Dead which has a lot of …
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson aren’t really big Hollywood stars that’s why when a friend asked me to go to the movies with her and watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, I wasn’t really very excited. I don’t like Matthew that much (his blond looks isn’t …
Cleaner, thriller film
Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Eva Mendes make up a stellar cast that didn’t make it too big in theaters. Cleaner feels a lot like an episode of CSI, a television show that has millions of viewers each and every week. With its CSI qualities there is more …

V for Vendetta (2005)
V for Vendetta (2005)
Director: James McTeigue. Featuring: Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving and John Hurt.
In my eyes, the movie stands somewhere between greatness and boredom, all depends on how you like your movies. It is told in a non realistic, graphic novel style. The heroes are symbolic and …
Amazing Grace
I did not see this movie until some tinme after it was released. I didn’t even see it advertise and that could have been because I was a bit busy around the time it was released. However, after finding out about it I was a bit eager to watch …
Child’s Play (movie)
Child’s Play is one of the first horror movies I saw as a kid. I will always remember this scary movie. Child’s Play is the reason I hate dolls and anything that looks life like. The story is about a killer who is about to die. But before he dies …
Valentine’s Day movie
The movie Valentine’s Day is named perfectly and this movie truly qualifies as a romantic comedy in true sense. It has been a while that I have seen such a multi starrer movie. In my opinion the star casting of this movie is working mostly to its advantage. But …

I first became aware of these movie recently when I was on summer holidays. I had gone to a friend’s house and saw it being aired on television. At first I thought it looked a little interesting so I actually decided to forget about what I had gone there …
Godzilla vs. Biollante
Godzilla vs. Biollante is a movie that I highly recommend to Godzilla fans or monster movies fans in general. Godzilla looks incredible in this movie. He actually looks real and very evil, and his original 1954 roar is used in this movie, which is very fitting and it sounds …
The Reaping film
Through this movie, Hilary Swank has reminded audiences once again, that she is one of Hollywood’s greatest Heavy-Hitters. Her acting skills were brilliant. Maybe this is why some of the other cast members appeared as though they needed to step it up a notch? “Who is that blonde little …
10 (movie)
The movie 10 catapulted Bo Derek into a household name. Bo is steamy hot in this film, although the acting leaves much to be desired. I like 10 because it’s cool to see an icon when she was young and very, very beautiful. Bo Derek can’t act worth a …
The Reaping movie
Starring: Hilary Swank (Katherine Winter), David Morrissey (Doug), Idris Elba (Ben), Anna Sophia Robb (Loren McConnell)
Whew the biblical 10 plagues shown in color can be rather overwhelming after all this while, it has only been images in our minds from the written word.
Katherine Winter, …

Aelita-Queen of Mars
A russian silent film made aside from the artistic works of the montage industry. The director of this film was a man named Yakov Protazanov, and the story of it is a lot more conventional than other russian films of the time, and doesn’t demand all that much of …
Borat film
This movie was overall alright. I enjoyed watching some parts of the movie. Some parts not so much. In some parts it was boring or wasn’t really funny. You could also tell that it was a low budget film. There were a couple of parts that were funny. It’s …
House of Fears
OK, I have to admit that House of Fears makes me go all creepy. However, the movie is kind of dark and it’s quite irritating to say. I wish that most haunted movies would be clearer and not having a dark effect.
I am not really sure …
The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring
The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring is one of the best movies I have ever seen. This movie was just amazing. Because of the long name I will refer to it as Fellowship of the Ring in this review. First off I must say the intro …
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 …
Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 Movie
I couldn’t wait until the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie came out on DVD. Everyone in my family loved the first one and, even though I figured it might not be as good as the original, I was still looking forward to seeing the sequel.
Unfortunately, the second movie …

Beetlejuice movie
One of my favourite films by Tim Burton, Beetlejuice is a dark, but highly comic little gem with a fantastic little story at its heart complete with a cast of superb performers.
The film follows a newly wedded couple, played by Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin who, shortly after moving …
Movie He’s just not that into you
All of us girls were so keen to watch he’s just not that into you, I guess subconsciously us though maybe it will brush some light on watch guys really think.
I really liked the upfront message of the title and it is exactly that, if you’re trying to figure …
George of the Jungle movie
This is one of Brendan Fraser’s best comedies and is a great film for the family to watch.
Basically a spoof of Tarzan, Fraser plays George, a young child abandoned in the jungle and raised by apes. He’s not too bright and is very clumbsy but has a good heart …
All That Jazz movie
All That Jazz is the story of the great choreographer, Bob Fosse. There is absolutely no doubt about just how talented Fosse was, but his personal life was full of trauma and personal problems. That’s how it often is for really great talents. Like Fosse, though, …
The Social Network (2010 film)

Frankenstein, 1931 movie
Loosely based on the novel by Mary Shelley, this classic horror movie is perhaps one of the better known adaptations. Boris Karloff’s make up and performance of the monster make it quite unforgettable, despite the movie’s liberal handling of the book. Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) is obsessed with finding …
