I Know Who Killed Me
The other night, my sister and I rented this movie to have a fun night in with junk food and a movie neither of us had ever seen before. It’s a new release, starring Lindsay Lohan. Julia Ormond is also in it, which was nice for me …
Street Kings (2008) movie
Well Keanu Reeves is back again and I have to say he seems exactly the same. His acting skills being minimal but I try to get past that to watch the movie. The story for me was really complicated so I am just going to try and lay out …

Mr H is late Movie
A dead body is supposed to be in church for the remembrance service, but the undertakers are running out of time and needs to take some shortcuts to make it. This is a comedy in the same fashion as a Buster Keaton film, although not close to the same …
Resident Evil movie
Resident Evil. As the name suggests we think we’re entering the world of survival horror…
Yes! That’s right. Because we’ve in mind the strong console Game “Resident Evil”. Really a success!
The question is: “Could a film reproduce the atmosphere of the king of horror videogames?”
According to Andersson, the Film Director, …
Elf
I absolutely LOVE Elf! This movie is hilarious and Will Ferrel is at his best! The characters are great, the acting is great and the storyline is hilarious. I don’t know anyone who has seen this movie and not fallen in love with it. It is definitely a Christmas …
Springtime in the Rockies movie
Springtime in the Rockies from 1937 is a movie I have heard about for a very long time, but believe it or not, even with its marvelous song, I have never seen it, until now.
The song that is sung at the beginning is awesome. I love the harmony …
Traitor (2008)
Don Cheadle plays the character of a devout Muslim who must play both sides of the field; one is that of a Muslim supporter who sells arms and makes bombs for the suicide bombers and the other is that of an agent for the United States government who is …
Movie Casino Royale
Of all the James Bond films I’ve seen, Casino Royale is by far the worst.
First, Daniel Craig can’t fill even George Lazenby’s shoes when it comes to the role. He’s not handsome. He’s not charming and he’s not James Bond.
The movie itself was even more of a problem. …
Bruce Almighty
Jim Carrey is one of my favorite Hollywood actors. I’ve seen every film he has done and know his personal life as well. One of my most favorite Jim Carrey film is Bruce Almighty. Directed by Tom Shadyac, Bruce Almighty is the story of Bruce Nolan (Jim Carrey), a …
Ice Age
Pixar has set a whole new standard in animated films. Ice Age is not a Pixar movie. However, I stilled enjoyed it greatly despite not having the Pixar tag on it. Ice Age is great animated movie in my opinion. It is very funny throughout the …

DVD Dracula vs. Frankenstein (1971)
Oh boy, is this the most incoherent movie ever made or what?
Warning: You may want to take an aspirin before reading this review.
In 1970, Independent International Films had a hit with Satan’s Sadist, a biker gang movie, and the following year a sequel (Satan’s Blood Freaks) was put into …
Your Highness - Unrated (2011 movie)
Sometimes I just need to watch something absurd. I know it’s illogical, but that’s what makes it so funny. Danny McBride is a master of this kind of humor. Ever since I saw him in “Eastbound & Down,” I’ve been a huge fan. It’s also …
Beautiful and Twisted (thriller movie)
I’ve been a fan of the actor Rob Lowe for some time, and so when I saw that he was playing the main role in the movie “Beautiful and Twisted” I was interested to see what it would be all about. I was lucky enough to catch the movie from …
Inception: A Film by Christopher Nolan (2010)
When somebody asked me what Inception was about after watching it, I said —“ —˜it’s like in a dream’. I gathered from my friends that the movie was creating a lot of buzz lately. So I went out to watch the film. The screenplay was a …
Fanny & Alexander Movie
For those who ever liked a film by Ingmar Bergman this is a definite must-see. I think perhaps most people choose this film as their first Bergman, and that is a wise decision, because even though the film has all of the trademarks of Bergman’s style, it isn’t as …
American Pie (1999)
American Pie, directed by paul Weitz is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for strong sexuality, crude sexual dialogue, language and drinking, all involving teens. The original release date for this movie was July 9, 1999 for United States audiences. This movie falls in the genre …
The English Patient
The words that describe best the movie “The English Patient” is magical and fascinating. This movie, which was nominated for 12 Oscars and won 9 of them, is the director’s Anthony Minghella best movie.
What is so fascinating about this movie is that it consists of two love stories - …
Voodoo Lagoon movie
Starring: Ashley Hamilton (Tom), Lara Cox (Carolina), Lincoln Lewis (Aaron), Natalie Blair (Kate), Beau Brady (Lee), Kelly Atkinson (Jessica), John Noble (Ben), Kristian Schmid (Kevin)
The synopsis on the DVD cover looked interesting at first; eerie voodoo happenings on a secluded tropical island. However it was more …
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010 Film)
In 2010, a film starring Michael Cera came out that looked to be something extremely interesting and a movie that he will be well known for. It was called “Scott Pilgrim vs. The World”. Sad to say, that this film did not really hold the wow factor that I …
Overboard movie
The movie “Overboard” with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell is one of my favorite movies. I am not one to watch the same movie over and over again, but this is one of those few movies that I can watch time and again on television without getting bored. …
Fatal Attraction (1987)
I am old enough to remember Fatal Attraction when it was first released in cinemas and it caused a big fuss at the time. It was a massive box office hit and when I saw in at a cinema in London I remember people were shouting at the …

Blitz Megaplex Theatre
This theatre has been existed in the last 2 years in my country, providing the excellence and the different experience in watching movies, especially in the theatre. It is not just a regular theatre which I known so far in my country, but it was also an entertainment and …
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 …
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
This is going to be one of those movies that you will be quoting from for the rest of your life. I promise you. I remember back in the day when it first came out and I thought it was hilarious. I thought I was the only one who …
Sucker Punch (2011 Film)
Sucker Punch is one of those movies that you have to watch with an open mindset. The jest of this movie, for the most part, isn’t going to come to you quickly. To the plain eye, it looks like a fantasy chick flick with vivid graphics. I can be honest …
“Monty Python and the Holy Grail” (1975 Film)
The group of well known British comics who used to star in “Monty Python Flying Circus” short films came out with a film in 1975 called “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”. Now, this film is without a doubt an acquired type of comedy, but a comedy none the …
Taken in Broad Daylight (2009)
I have no idea if this movie ever made it to the theatres but in any event I saw this on the Lifetime channel and found it very interesting. It is about a teenager who was kidnapped from a shopping mall and as the title says, it was done …
Movie Mad Money
“Mad Money” is simply a great movie with mixture of comic and dramatic moments. The main actors in this movie are Diane Keaton, Ted Danson, Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes and all of them do their part well, however Keaton gives that extra bit more and it shows.
“Mad Money” …

Warren Haynes is a member of the …
Babel (Film)
Trust me if I say this: I have never seen a film with intertwining characters as honest and coincidental as this. All because of Alejandro Gonzales Inaritu’s compelling writing and masterful directing that we were able to see four stories, in three countries interweave each other in the most …
Vantage Point
With all due respect to my fellow reviewers on this site, I thought this movie was pitiful. I recently saw the movie when my father came to town begging to catch this new thriller. What ensued was a couple hours of just absolute silliness. The movie …
The movie Snow Buddies
Snow Buddies…. oh my goodness. There were so many Air Bud films that it was ridiculous. Now comes this one, yet another air bud movie that is so much like Snow Dogs that its sickening.
This movie is about 5 golden retriever puppies whose curiosity gets them landed in …
This Is the End, 2013 movie
If you’re searching a movie that will make your stomach hurt from laughing, this is one of them. This Is the End got me filled with laughter from beginning to end and never got boring.

Movie I’m Not There
Bob Dylan is hard to explain in a few words, consequently why not have six unlike people portray him in the movie “I’m Not There”. This is what writer director Todd Haynes made. You might recognize his movie Far From Heaven starring Julianne Moore. The characters played through the …

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is the fourth in its genre of Indiana Jones series. The film is directed by Steven Spielberg of Jurassic Park fame. The latest adventure film begins with the American South West desert in late 50s as the back drop. Jones …
Herbie Fully Loaded -DVD Release 2005

Zoo (UR, 2007) documentary
There was a man who once had sex with a horse and died from a ruptured colon. I found this story hard to believe until I realized that there was a documentary on the event. It’s obviously not told by the man, but by another …
Hansel and Gretel Witch Hunters (movie)
I might be a fairly cynical twenty-something right now, but there are some things that I find that I have not and probably never will outgrow. Two of those things are my love for superheroes and my love of fairy-tales, especially those that hail from places in Europe. When …

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010) Movie
This is the third installation of the four-part series of the Twilight Saga, and it is far the most suspenseful and most action-packed yet! I had watched this movie twice in a span of 3 days and enjoyed every minute of it. The book is quite different from the …
Masters of Horror: the Deer Woman movie
this movie, directed by the team of Joe Landis and his son, was more of a comedy than horror movie despite being labeled as one of the masters of horror movies. The plot was very silly. It revolved around a strange death. A man in his …
Queen Sized movie
I came home early today and my wife was watching the movie “Queen Sized” on TV. I had never heard of the movie and, since it was raining and there wasn’t much else to do, I sat down to watch it with her.
I missed the first half hour or …
