The Sex in the City movie
I don’t know that they necessarily needed to make a move, but I’m glad they did. Sure, it wasn’t the greatest movie of all time, but it was enjoyable if you are a Sex in the City fan like I am. Now, I would be wary for younger viewers …

The Hurt Locker
I had been encouraged to watch this year’s Oscar winning movie, “The Hurt Locker”, for a few months before I finally sat down and put the film on. While I don’t usually like war movies, I thought that this particular production might be worth a few hours of my …

Dedication Movie
In must admit that I really enjoy watching Mandy Moore’s movie; however “Dedication” failed to impress me. Even though the great actors, Diane Wiest and Tom Wilkinson give a lot to this movie, ultimately I found it a boring romantic comedy. It seems that I am not the only …

Heath Ledger’s A Knights Tale
Heath Ledger was best at his old-fashioned roles I think. He could play the gentleman, the rogue, even the villain, but his most touching films are ones that he is dawning an old-fashioned tunic, and this is one of those. This was the first movie of his that I …

I took the Walnut Grove bus at the Surrey Sky Train station, …
Iron Man
Today I went to see Iron Man. What an excellent film.
This is the first of all the Marvel films that I feel like really had it all. A good plot, story line, special effects, cast of characters and really solid acting.
It’s rare to find this combination in a film …
Bone Sickness, Horror film
I might have gotten to the point in my life where zombie movies just don’t excite me anymore. Take this one, Bone Sickness, a zombie movie that might have been shot with a betamax camcorder. I have no beef with low budget movies but Bone Sickness really doesn’t do …
Christmas in Wonderland
My very favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, stars in this holiday movie, “Christmas in Wonderland”. I just saw it for the first time when it aired on TV, and I have mixed feelings about it.

This film features Steve Martin, in a time where he was probably the funniest man in the whole world, as the brain surgeon who falls in love with a brain without a body (!) during a trip to Austria.
A quite bizarre that is totally dependent on the performance by …
The movie Next Friday
This movie was so lame and the first Friday movie was definitely so much better. Basically the main character Craig moves with his cousin for one day in the suburbs. Again the whole movie takes place on Friday and this movie is horrible. I found that there were no …
X-Men 3: The Last Stand
X-Men 3: The Last Stand stars Halle Berry, Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, and Kelsey Grammer.

Dancing At The Blue Iguana movie
Dancing At The Blue Iguana is not going to win any Oscars, but it is still a good movie. Dancing At The Blue Iguana focuses on the lives of four dancers. These dancers are not your ordinary ballet stars, they are topless dancers. The Blue Iguana is not your …
Don’t Mess with the Zohan
I am reviewing the movie, Don’t Mess with the Zohan, starring Adam Sandler and a variety of other actors. So…how to explain this movie? There’s this Pakistinian guy named Zohan and he’s really popular. He fights terrorist groups. What he really wants to do is to cut hair, …
Max Headroom movie

The Dark Knight Rises
Read on at the risk of spoilers.
For those of you who believed that ‘The Avengers’ and ‘The Amazing Spiderman’ would be strong competition for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ I’m sorry, but you could not be more wrong. The other two films were good, but this was on a whole …
Nightmare of Elm Street movie (2010)
I recently went and saw the new Nightmare on Elm Street. I think most people know the plot line to nightmare on Elm Street, and for those few who don’t it’s a pretty simple slasher flick. A badly burned Psycho who was killed years ago by an angry mob …

Supernatural:Monster movie
The director decided to go Vintage style and so this episode is black and white. Right from the start to the end,it is in black and white. Well not much of a difference actually,because the show does not sport bright colors,which is with keeping with the theme of the …
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2
I myself am not a die-hard Twilight Fan but I have seen the movies and liked them for the most part. However, Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 was not as good as I thought that it would be. I had expected the finale to be similar in grandeur to …

Eat, Pray, Love Movie

I became interested seeing In Bruges after I found out about the cast and the great script. But nothing would have foretold me how amazing this movie will turn out. First of all, it stars Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes and it is about two hitmen (Farrell …
The Usual Suspects movie

Due Date: Movie
Due Date is a comedy film that I really enjoyed, despite going into it with a slight bit of pessimism due to previous reviews I’d heard.
