Madagascar movie
I really enjoyed this movie, even though it was for kids. It is nice that there are kids’ movies that adults can watch and even enjoy. The animation in this movie is great!

Horror Movies
What’s the deal with these so called Horror Movies that are being made these days. Do they know the meaning of Horror? Correct me if i’m wrong…but shouldn’t a horror movie scare you? The rating for a typical horror is usually PG-13. How the hell can this be horror, …
Mona Lisa Smile (2003 Film)
The 2003 film “Mona Lisa Smile” is an elegant masterpeice that portrays Julia Roberts in a role that was pretty much made for her. It brings woman’s rights and the power that they have to another new level, while also showing the contraversy of how woman were supposed to …
Film Beetlejuice
Few films are as wildly inventive as Tim Burton’s manic masterpiece Beetlejuice.
Telling the tale of Adam and Barbara (Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis), living in a small town and unable to have children, who are exiled after an unexpected death to live in their beautiful country home. It wouldn’t …

The Village - Movie directed by M. Night Shyamalan
The Village is one of the later movies of M. Night Shyamalan. I have for a long time believed that the beauty of Shyamalan’s movies was dwindling but this movie was among those that were better than you would first thought.
In all truthfulness the movie started out very …
Miracle on 34th Street movie
The classic and wonderful Miracle on 34th Street is a delight for all time. I don’t think any holiday movie about Santa Claus will ever be able to surpass it. It’s family entertainment at its best, with quality performances across the board. Little Natalie Wood is …
Iron Man DVD
I bought this on DVD today, for around $15 at Target. It stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jeff Bridges.
To be honest, I wasn’t sure that Robert Downey Jr. could pull off the character of Tony Stark/Iron Man believably. Don’t get me wrong, he …
Ocean’s Thirteen
I am a big fan of the Ocean’s movies. I loved the first one, thought twelve was ok at best. I believe Ocean’s Thirteen is a return to form for the Ocean’s movies. The things I didn’t like about Twelve are fixed in this movie. …
Godzilla vs. Mothra
Godzilla vs. Mothra is a definite improvement over King Kong vs. Godzilla, although it is still not necessarily on my top ten list of favorite Godzilla movies. I find the Godzilla suit to be a definite improvement over the Godzilla suit from the previous suit because this Godzilla looks …
The Blind Side movie
Let me start by saying I had no idea The Blind Side was based on a true story. I watched the entire movie without this knowledge, and honestly I’m not sure my opinion of it would’ve changed much having known. There was a lot of hype about the movie, …
Daddy’s Little Girls
OK, when my wife insisted on renting the movie Daddy�s Little Girls, I did the same thing any good husband would do; rolled my eyes. In fact, I told her she was more than welcome to watch it while I was at work.
Personally, I never have been a big …
500 Days of Summer (2009 Movie)
Okay, 500 Days of Summer was not exactly my choice of a movie. The trailers didn’t look that appealing…but at least they were honest.
The movie was watch-able. I suppose it’s possible to believe that it’s a relationship from a guys point of view, but I really don’t see guys …
Avatar film
Avatar(2009) is a post-apocalyptic action/adventure/SciFi/romance rated PG-13 for Adult Language, Adult Situations, and Violence…lots of Violence.
Not being a fan of James Cameron’s films (Titanic, the Terminator series, ect.), I went to see Avatar wondering whether it could possibly live up to the hype. Two hours and forty minutes (which …
Rush Hour 3 (2007)
Coming back for a third time, Rush Hour 3, in my opinion, has done a lot better than the second. With a great addition of Israeli actor Yvan Attal, who plays George, this movie is a great finish to top off a funny trilogy.
Jackie Chan is back and better …
Man in the Iron Mask
In the late ninteen nineties the young actor Leonardo DiCaprio was one of the most popular actors in Hollywood. This was because not only was his acting good, but his movies were usually very interesting and he was a very handsome young man. Thus when the movie “Man in …
Must Love Dogs movie
We recently rented the DVD “Must Love Dogs,” starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. Or, I should say, my wife rented it.
This is definitely a roma-comedy, a chick flick, more appropriate to a girls nite with Ben & Jerry than to a nite with her husband.
There is some …
Aliens
Aliens is probably one of the movies that can scare me till this day. The monsters in this movie are pretty terrifying. I think that this movie may have been where they got the idea for the game Doom. Because this movie was very freaky. I think the music and …
Uncle Buck Movie
I got home from work yesterday and my wife had just started watching the movie Uncle Buck. I didn’t intend on watching it. But, I had to wait for the dishwasher to get done before I could start dinner (my frying pan was in it) so I sat down …
Doghouse Movie
The undead, infected, and zombies have been in every independent horror, comedy, and even action movie as of late. If you have a laughable budget then it must be written somewhere that you have to make a movie like this. At least Doghouse takes the trendy concept and adds …
The Princess Bride Movie
I have watched the movie The Princess Bride countless times now. And, I have to say, even after seeing it more times than just about any other movie (including Star Wars), this film is still as good as it was the first time I saw it.
The thing I like …
The 2008 Comedy/Horror Teeth
A friend told me about this movie one Saturday and all but forced me to watch it. To tell the truth, at first I thought the movie was going to be silly, and just another b-movie since the plot alone sounded ridiculous to me. Either way, I tried it …
The Gospel of John
The Gospel of John is my favourite of all four gospels because, rather than focussing on historical facts like the other three, it goes deeper into Jesus’s teachings and philosophy. From the very beginning, it tries to explain the world through what later is was going to become the …
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 …

Tomorrowland (science fiction adventure film)
Tomorrowland was one of those movies that I was silly enough to be fooled into thinking was actually going to be good. After watching the trailer I thought, “This looks good. I wonder why I’m not hearing much about this movie”. After sitting through over two hours of it hoping …
Drowning Mona
Drowning Mona with Neve Campbell, Casey Affleck, Bette Midler, Danny DeVito, Will Ferrell, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
This movie is a perfect example of dry humor. Danny DeVito delivers his cynical lines in his trademark manner. Curtis is her usual sexy self as the waitress had …
Terminator Salvation DVD
I am not a big Terminator fan because I always consider that a pretty superficial trilogy of movies but this one really surprised me. Actually when I saw Christian Bale was playing John Connor I immediately knew this film is going to be better than any other Terminator before …
Candy Man
My wife loaded the movie Candy Man on our Netflix player about a month ago because she remembered watching it as a kid and she wanted me to watch it with her. We ended up waiting until the kids were in bed this past weekend to watch it because …

Going My Way movie
Going My Way is absolutely wonderful. With Bing Crosby in the lead, you know it’s going to be somewhat laid back, and it is. It’s a subtle work that touches the heart and spurs on our emotions. Crosby is Father O’Malley, and he’s been sent to …
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017 adventure comedy film)

Halloween 2
My wife and I saw the first Halloween re-make when it came out and wanted to see the sequel to it. We got a chance to do that last night.
While a decent movie, I can honestly say it didn’t live up to the first one.
I liked the fact they …
Son of the Mask (Movie 2005)
Just when you thought that it was safe to back into the water, dun dun…dun dun…dun dun…the had to go ahead and spoil a perectly good original movie with the crappy “Son of the Mask”. Tell me, why did they feel the need to create a sequel, was it …
The Notebook movie
Although I don’t watch as much romantic movies as I do action/adventure thrillers, I saw The Notebook and I totally loved it. It really made me cry. It’s about Allie Hamilton (Rachel McAdams), a young, wealthy teenage girl who vacations with her family to North Carolina. There she meets …
Stronger (2017 Biographical Drama Film)
For what it’s worth, biographical dramas are too often hard to pull off. Directors and storytellers need to be cautious with the underlying melodrama that this type of movies usually evokes. While it’s good for some viewers, experienced moviegoers looking for good or better films are going to be disappointed …
