As it turned out, I was only able to view one version of A Christmas Carol this year. Normally, I see several, but scheduling just didn’t work out, not to mention I didn’t notice this Charles Dickens’ classic being shown all that much. This A Christmas Carol …

Gus Van Sant is next to Jim Jarmusch probably the most interesting american independent filmmaker from the last 15 to 20 years. Last Days is his film that apparently tells the story of the last days of legendary Nirvana-member Kurt Cobain. The autentic names and songs in the Cobains …

The Departed is one of my favourite films, it’s absolutely brilliant. Although I am not generally a fan of the genre, the all-star cast made this a must see for me and it certainly didn’t disappoint.
The plot was something I hadn’t seen executed so well in a long time. …

Tonight I decided that I was going to watch the movie “Attack the Block” even though I heard about it roughly a year ago. Back then when I had watched the trailer and seen one or two clips of the movie what I saw just did not impress me …

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen High Society, but the opportunity presented itself again recently, so I gave it a watch. Overall, it’s just a cute and bubbly movie with Grace Kelly putting on airs and Bing Crosby as the down the earth pal who just …

Directed by Herman Hoffman, The Battle of Gettysburg was a movie short from 1955 that took viewers through the bulk of this long battle between the North and South in the Civil War.
Shows like this feel me with awe, and sometimes I cry just because the emotion of it …

The lead star of this movie is Milla Jovivich. This movie is the second part of the trilogy, Resident Evil. This part 2 of the trilogy is entitled, Apocalypse.
With truly amazing special effects, even breath-taking movie that can really make the viewers shout and feel the suspense. I think …

My daughter loves the newer Scooby Doo episodes. So, when she wanted to rent a movie last weekend, we ended up picking up a movie that featured several episodes “Monstrous Tails.”
And, after watching it with her probably about three dozen times over the past week, I have to say …

When the movie Iron Man came out, I didn’t think it would be a movie I would enjoy. However, it ended up being much better than I thought it would be.
When they came out with the sequel, Iron Man 2, I once again figured it would be a movie …

Letters from a Killer (1998) is a thriller that some still have a hard time watching, not because of the action on screen, but what happened off screen. It was while shooting this movie in California, that Patrick Swayze went head-first into a tree and almost killed himself. It …

I have watched countless movies in the last year and personally rate Blood Diamond on a par with The Departed as 2006’s best movie. Another strong, mature performance from DiCaprio ensures this movie never flags.
In recent times there has been a glut of African “conscience” movies but this has …

As a fan of the comics and early morning animated show, I always felt this movie was a long time coming. Thankfully, someone finally saw fit to bring Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops and the rest to the big screen and under the direction of Bryan Singer; the X-Men were finally …

Synopsis: This 2004 documentary gives a history of the local television hosts past and present who introduced late night horror movies to their audiences. The history starts with Vampira and works its way through other celebrities like Cassandra Peterson (who played Elvira) and uses interviews with hosts, actors and …

I have probably seen Eurotrip a dozen times by now. It’s one of those movies you just have to see all over again. Love and friendship are perfectly combined in this excellent comedy which consists of a trip of a bunch of high-school graduates all over Europe.
The movie shows …

The Lieutenant Wore Skirts is a lighthearted comedy that I always enjoy watching. Released in 1956, the movie stars Tom Ewell and Sheree North as a married couple who end up with their signals crossed. She ends up active in the military while he’s enduring a bad …

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 …

Laast night I saw this movie, never been kissed in television. So long time ago I have ever this movie and last night I watched that again though I’m not completely forget about the story at all. I always remember it, because it’s one of my favorite movie.
Never been …

I was really excited to see the Ugly Truth with Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler when I heard it was coming out. I had seen an interview with Katherine about it and she said it was raunchier than she had ever done so I assumed it would be …

Nine times out of ten a moving staring Nicholas Cage is a big hit in our household. I have always enjoyed his movies so when my husband decided to rent the 2005 movie Lord of War I sat down expecting to enjoy the movie. Told as a narrative from …

I haven’t watched the unedited version (as in, actual movie not one edited for TV) of Police Academy in years. But, after watching it again last weekend, I have to say I now realize just how good it was.
Other movies have tried to put together an insane group of …

I recently purchased the movie Valerie on the Stairs on the recommendation of a good friend. I bought the DVD second-hand at a going-out-of-business sale at a rental store for $3.50, USD. My friend was incredibly interested to hear this, as he had only seen it once or twice …

I was flipping channels the other morning and came across a pirate movie called Blackbeard the Pirate.
I hadn’t seen this movie before but love older films like this so I figured I would sit down and watch it while everyone else was still asleep. After seeing it, I honestly …

I have seen all of the National Lampoon Vacation movies. Christmas vacation is easily the worst of the four but I think European Vacation is one of those movies that isn’t as good as the first “Family Vacation” or the last, “Vegas Vacation.”
That’s not to say it is a …

This is the fourth year when I first saw the movie ‘Brave Heart’. Since then I have seen this for innumerable times. My favorite Mel Gibson is in lead role and as usual he shows his strong caliber in this movie.
Winning some Oscars will not suffice to say all …

I only saw Bells Are Ringing for the first time in this decade. I’d always heard about it when people talked about the great Judy Holliday since this was her most identifiable film legacy. Finally, I had a chance to see it and judge for myself whether …

I am reviewing the movie, Beyond the Grave, starring John Nettles and Daniel Casey as Chief Inspector Barnaby and Sergeant Troy. This movie was made in 2000, was produced by Brian-True-May, and is based off the novel written by Caroline Graham.
In this film, the setting takes place, a majority …

The classic story by Jules Verne about a an english adventurer who takes a bet of him travelling around all the world in as little as 80 days (which was very, very little once). This version of the story has been hailed as the best one, but I can’t …

One of Us is a horror, drama mystery film directed by Blake Reigle. It actually feels more like a thriller rather than a horror film as there is nothing horrifying or scary about it.

The story starts off with journalist, Melanie receiving a call for help from her friend, Haley.
Melanie …

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 …

So I thought “Well, here we go again! Another shark movie” This time however, I was astonished to find that I really dug this one. It is nicely suspenseful and like a few others of its kind, too unnervingly real. It is billed as being based on real-life events. Kudos …

Ondskan is a Swedish drama: an adaptation of Jan Guillou’s novel. It was nominated for an Oscar in the category of Best Foreign Language Film at the 2004 Academy Awards. It also took the Swedish Oscars by storm that same year, taking three Guldbagge Awards and four nominations. The …

I’m not a hugh Jean-Claude Van Damme fan so when I watched this movie, I was already thinking I wasn’t going to be impressed by it. I was right.
It was an OK movie but you could tell it was made in the late 80s when karate movies were becoming …

The 2010 animated family made film “How to Train Your Dragon” was in one word, delightful. The variety of characters, to the graphics, and story line, the movie was entertaining and perfect for a movie night with the family.
Hicup is the hero in this movie, a frail teenage boy …

When this movie came out I was working my braing to find out exactly why the name sounded familiar to me, and then later on I realised that the movie was based off of a previous movie which was released in the late seventies and I had watched some …

I’m not a huge fan of Seth MacFarlane. I used to like “Family Guy”, but eventually grew tired of it to the point where even the early seasons aren’t as enjoyable as I remember them. “The Cleveland Show” was just awful from the start and, while I’ve …

I believe the best movie version of Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice is by A&E. I’ve read the book, and the A&E version holds very close to Austin’s work. I hate when movie directors and film writers believe they have to make the classic their own, by making …

Cloverfield is a borderline apocalyptic love story that tells the tale of a group of friends who are at a surprise party and find themselves amidst a group of man eating spiders that are destroying the tri state area.
The movie is told like a home film with the actors …

I usually am a little apprehensive about “no-name” horror films. But I gave this one a shot. I am glad that I did because this movie was more interesting than I thought it would be. The plot is fairly simple: a group of …

Okay, I know that many of you out there just love Pretty Woman. Pretty Woman is a love story and it is sweet. I will agree with that. But it’s a lame plot because really, how many rich men have to buy a prostitute in order to have a …
