Movies Reviews
Sunshine DVD Movie
When you talk about the movie review on Sunshine, I have the impression of the movie of The Titans. This movie is basically about sunlight, yes, and I thought it was a pretty boring story, yet again on DVD. My brother has loads of it, and I …
Volver movie
I love foreign films. I especially love foreign language films with subtitles. Weird, I know, but I love the feel of them and the sense that you are truly experiencing another culture through film. So, when I started watching Volver I had very high hopes. It’s obvious from the …
Hairspray (movie)
I watched the movie Hairspray, the new movie and not the original, for kicks and grins. Was I disappointed! I suppose that I should have taken my own cues that I was not too impressed with the first version of Hairspray! Anyway, if you want to listen to pop …
Blame It On Rio movie (1984)
Anyone who wants to sit back and forget their problems for a couple of hours should rent “Blame It On Rio.” It is one of those romantic comedies that is so much fun, I want to see it practically every time it airs on TV. It centers around Matthew …
Movie The Incredibles
Brad Bird’s Pixar movie the Incredibles, released in 2004, is my favorite Pixar movie ever, and one of my all time favorites in any genre. The Incredibles mixes the best of superhero movies, spy capers, and family films. It has heart, excitement, humor, action, suspense and a …
Wedding Crashers (starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn)
Wedding Crashers is a total amazing movie story featuring 2 great actors, naming Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn and in this story, they are two best friends whom are just make a guess? Yes, wedding crashers.
There are definitely lots of laughs when it comes to these 2 …
Quarantine movie
Quarantine must have been written during the writers strike or at least by a nephew of a producer. How a script like this is green lit makes even a hack like me think I could do better. I don’t know if this was …
Windchill (R, 2007) movie
Please, please, please…if you want to see a horrible horror movie, rent Wind Chill. I really thought, based on the reviews I saw on the Netflix website, that this film would be a little different than the typical “Scares in the Wildnerness” movies. I was right. …
Erin Brockovich
Ok, I never would have thought that a movie about a slutty, foul mouthed unattractive mother of a litter of kids would have won an Oscar for anyone. Thank you academy for proving me wrong.
Erin Brockovich is down as my all time worst movie. If this woman …
Jacob’s Ladder (1990)
Get ready for the thrill ride from this feature length movie starring Tim Robbins as Jacob Singer, a Vietnam soldier. As the movie would have it, there are multiple sides to this chilling story that you need to pay close attention to, one side of the story is that …
IMDb
IMDb is the international movies database, and for good reason. The sheer size of the amount of movies covered on this website is simply unsurpassed, I’d say. Every movie has a page, even if all is listed is a simple title. But rest assured, that situation will only persist …
Feature Film “The Reaping”
I first saw this film when it came on tv. The subject seemed interesting and although I am not a Hillary Swank fan in any way I decided to give it a try because the plot sounded really different. Hillary plays a woman who was once a …
Gandhi (1982)
I really admired the movie Gandhi (1982) directed by Richard Attenborough. From the boring history books that I read from high school and from classroom discussions that did not give me as much information as I need, the personality that I had been curious about finally came to …
Disaster Movie
Disaster Movie almost turned out to be a disaster for me. My husband and I rented it the other night. I usually don’t really like spoof movies because I think they are dumb and a waist of time but my husband wanted to see it so I gave in. …
American Sniper - Movie (2014)
Movies dealing with war are usually not my cup of tea but after watching ‘American Sniper’ with friends, I must say that I was pleasantly surprised. This was more than just a war movie, this was a movie that explored the intricacies of a man struggling to balance his personal …
Now You See Me 2 (2016 Film)
This year we have been blessed with unnecessary sequels, and if you think that the “expansion” of the magic-filled world of the first Now You See Me Film would offer something different, then you are very wrong.
There’s also a reason why it holds a fairly small rating in critics-consensus websites …
Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)
For the first time in my life, I have never watched a movie that is so depressing. I had never gotten over it until after a day when I’ve watched it. I really felt for the old men in the movie Glengarry Glen Ross which was filmed …
Friday the 13th Part 6
Friday the 13th part 6 isn’t my favorite, but there are a few scenes that I really love. One thing that I loved is that two 1980’s actors from soap operas appear in the movie. The first is a man who played Duncan on As the World Turns. On …

Original Sin movie
British dramas aren’t the easiest for me to watch. I’ve tried off and on, but they have their cultural slant that this American reviewer often just doesn’t get. The biggest thing for me is still trying to understand the lingo and sometimes just the spoken words. …

Sharknado 2: The Second One (movie)
I don’t remember seeing Sharknado 2 advertise, but when I saw the trailer for its prequel Sharknado for the very first time I was convinced the entire thing had to be a joke or one of those bad Syfy movies even with all the so-called rave reviews it had …
Columbo: Columbo Likes the Nightlife movie
All good things must eventually end and such is the case for the much beloved, Lieutenant Columbo. After decades of solving murders, the very last movie was aired in 2003. Columbo Likes the Nightlife is the swan song for the rumpled raincoat-clad detective. It’s the last …
Finding Nemo
What a scary thought. Lost your wife, then lose your only child, right before your eyes. If this wasn’t an animated feature, that would be a shocking premise, not a heartwarming one.
But I think this film’s subject matter was handled in a toned-down way, balanced between the search for …
The Other Boleyn Girl movie
I have not read the novel by Philippa Gregory, but I really enjoyed this movie, in spite of reading so much criticism. It was beyond my expectation. I usually avoid watching epic film but there was something engrossing about “The Other Boleyn Girl”, that left me seated till the …

The Crow-City of Angels (Movie 1996)
A sequel that should not have been made…why does everyone need to do a sequel? Was there something from the original Crow that was felt uncovered that they really needed a second installation, or, did they truly believe that they could make more money off re-doing a movie with …
Obsessed
I wasn’t sure I wanted to watch the movie “Obsessed” this past weekend. But, my wife wanted to see it and it was her birthday.
It turned out to be an OK film.
It is actually similar to many other films I’ve seen. You have a successful black guy who is …
The Gods Must Be Crazy
I wonder where the actors of this 1980 histerically funny movie are now. What I was referring to was the movie “Gods Must Be Crazy I, which had an equally funny sequel Gods Must Be Crazy II in 1989.
I could not tell in the beginning of …

Mother knows Best movie (1997)
