Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980 film)
My boyfriend and I have been watching all of the Star Wars movies from the very beginning. After really becoming addicted to A New Hope, I knew that I had to watch the next film on the list, “The Empire Strikes Back”. This movie really made me see further …
The Butcher Movie
The thing about slasher movies is they normally are good if you’re looking for a good laugh or just like watching a lot of blood and gore. But, as far as being scary, most fall well short of expectations.
I had never heard of the movie The Butcher before so …
Avatar (2009 film)
Any film with many disparate (though often impressive) elements and a lot of hype and money behind it is bound to create both ardent fans and ardent critics, and James Cameron’s sci-fi epic “Avatar” (which was also released in both 2 and 3D) is a prime example. There’s …

A Million Ways to Die in the West (movie)
Since I haven’t been seeing any new episodes of Family Guy or American Dad I’ve been wondering what the creator Seth McFarlane has been up to and whether or not he had any new projects working on. My question was answered when I saw the trailer for the comedy “A …

Machete (2010 film)
I want to preface this review by saying that this is one of my favorite movies because it embraces what it is. It is an action movie that focuses primarily on the action. This is the type of movie that you watch solely for entertainment value. It is not …
Alice in Wonderland
Alice in Wonderland is a disappointing movie mainly because of the lack of an engaging story. Even though the movie will remain as an epitome of fantasy, Alice in Wonderland never grows up to become an amazing work. Tim Burton should have put more effort in interlacing the fantasy …
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 …
Carriers movie
I have watched Carriers movie with my boyfriend. He is an avid fan of scary, horror, and suspense movies and I’m the scared one, but I still watch it with him. He was the one who suggested that we watch Carriers when it was shown last year. The story …
Troll 2 movie

The plot is essentially about Goblins that turn humans into plant-like matter …
Curious George movie
When I saw the cover for this movie it felt like it was a little boring since it has only a monkey holding a telescope. Nevertheless when my niece and I got nothing to do we did give it a try to watch it. At first it was a …
Spider Man 3
I went to see Spider Man 3 last weekend with some friends. I guess I have to say first off that I’m not a huge fan of Spider Man, but like it well enough to see the movies. I liked the second movie better than the first, but I …
Sleepover
At first, I was wondering what this Sleepover DVD movie is all about. But after watching it, I started to join in the ‘fun’ that the characters in the story and this is a very laugh out loud type of movie that will be entertaining for you and your …
DragonLance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight (2008) Movie
I have waited a long time for someone to make a DragonLance movie. I would have preferred a live-action film but this movie is animated. Still, it follows the novel pretty well. This movie is not perfect but it is very viewable, especially if you’re not too fussy.
All …
12 Monkeys: movie
12 Monkeys is a strange, mind bender of a movie starring Brad Pitt (as a mental patient) and Bruce Willis (as a time traveler searching for the source of a mysterious plague that wiped out most of the earth’s inhabitants.) James Cole is a convict living in a …
It Follows Movie (2015)
As a fan and frequent watcher of horror films, I was naturally looking forward to this film. As I passed the theater last night, I was stopped in my tracks by the flyer itself. It was an extremely well executed throwback to 1980s campy, horror film posters and it immediately …
Igor (2008 Film)
If you are looking for an adorable family fun flick that is perfect for a Friday night after a long week, and appropriately funny for children and adults, then you should consider the 2008 film Igor. It is an animated movie with great graphics and hilarious jokes and characters …
London - (starring Jessica Biel)
I watched London starring Jessica Biel the other day and it’s not really that bad a movie story. Chris Evans star too and in this DVD movie story that I watched, it’s basically about Chris Evans and he act as the character Syd. He is a guy that …
“Adam” Movie
The movie Adam is very interesting. It is about an adult with Aspergers syndrome which is similar to autism or some may call it high functioning autism. This movie was unique because they portrayed a normal man, not a genius or an idiot savant, but …

Remember the titans
Usually I don’t like movies about football or any sport for that matter. I really liked this movie though. It has Denzel Washington in it. I think he did an amazing job in this movie, like he usually does. The movie was good because it had a very good …
Days of being wild movie
The chinese director Wong Kar-Wai is my absolute favorite to appear during the last 20 years. Days of being wild is only his second film ever, made in the early 1990s, but already here he showed his amazing talent with an entirely unique way of putting images together and …
Robocop Movie
It rained Saturday so we were pretty much stuck inside the house all day. I ended up flipping channels and came across a movie I haven’t seen in a long while; Robocop.

In You, Me and Dupree, Carl (Matt Dillon) and Molly (Kate Hudson)have found the one unfortunate hitch …
Step Brothers, movie
Will Farrell is hilarious with John C. Reilly in this comedy of two men who somehow managed to slip through the cracks and who refuse to grow up. I don’t think that this film will win any awards for its quality, but for a laugh fest, it fit’s the …
Nurse Betty
Nurse Betty with Renee Zellweger, Morgan Freeman, Chris Rock, and Greg Kinnear.
The movie was excellent primarily because of the all star cast. Zellweger is not great looking, but her on screen wholesomeness shines through to make her really desirable. Morgan Freeman plays a hired …

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) was a great homage to all the cliff hanger serials of the 1930s and 1940s. It was another blockbuster for the 1980s and was 1981’s biggest box office hit. It helped to solidify Spielberg as one of the top directors in Hollywood and …

Wild Wild West
I was almost eleven when the movie “Wild Wild West” came out in theatres. It was a little before I just entered high school and I can remember how a lot of m friends who were in that same age group wanted to watch it. Back then, we …
Feature Film “Twilight Saga: Eclipse “
I just watched the movie Eclipse and I did really enjoy it. I have seen both of the other movies, and this is the best so far. I believe this is mostly because the budgets have gotten better and the actors have grown. Most of the …
Paranormal Activity movie
As Paranormal Activity 2 is coming out soon, I thought it was time to sit down and write a review over the first film. Surely everyone by now has been given one opinion or another; this movie is absolutely terrifying and believable or it’s about as scary as an …
A Reason To Believe (movie)
A Reason To Believe is the tired story of a college student who gets raped. Charlotte is in college, has a boyfriend and everything seems to be just peachy. I will say that I love Allison Smith in this Lifetime chick flick, and she will not disappoint you because …
Movie Bandidas
I had hesitated to watch the movie “Bandidas” at first because it starred two actresses whose acting “talent” tends to be very overrated most of the time. Another reason why I hesitated to watch it too was because it first appeared to me as one of those movies starring …
Dead End movie
This movie is really a little gem. A darkly comic, sometimes shocking and incredibly simple horror comedy is perhaps overlooked by the masses, but should be easy enough to track down and enjoy on DVD now days.
The strength of the film lies with its simplicity. A family, on …
Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House (2002)
As the fanfare dies down, the roars silenced and the smoke clears from the forth three Home Alone movies, this fourth episode in the saga comes on by and leaves a very bitter taste in the mouths of the viewing public. Taking the series into such a dark area …
The Other Sister (movie)
The Other Sister is a movie that my family loves. The Other Sister is the story of a mentally challenged young woman who is way under her mother’s thumbs, yes both of them! Her mother, played so well by Diane Keaton, wants to protect Carla, but is really stifling …
Desperado Movie
I didn’t want to watch Desperado. I resisted for a lon gtime, but finally and reluctantly, I had to give in and watch at least one action movie, and I picked this one. Thankfully so.
This moview strikes an elegant balance between the amusing and tragic, between love …
