Wrath of the Titans (2012 movie)
I just recently saw the movie Wrath of the Titans. It is the sequel to the previous Greek mythology-based movie about Perseus which was entitled Clash of the Titans. This movie still has the original cast, like Sam Worthington as Perseus, Liam Neeson as Zeus, Ralph Fiennes as Hades, …
Twilight movie
The only positive thing that I could say about this movie is that it is consistent, that is, similar to the book where it was based from, it consistently disappoints. About a year ago, I remember my curiosity when everyone seemed very interested, so much into this new series …
Diary of the Dead movie
After his belated return to his roots with Land of the Dead a few years prior, Romero turns prolific once more with Diary of the Dead; an interesting take on the genre with a hand held, documentary tactic employed perhaps most famously with Cloverfield.
It’s an interesting idea, and …
Hot chick movie
‘Hot chick’ is an English movie. It is a very funny movie. Rob Scheneider is the main role in the movie and his is a great performance. Anybody can feel like laughing when they see this movie. Rob’s role is that of a thief. This thief is not a …
Resident Evil Apocalypse movie
Resident Evil Apocalypse is the second phase of Andersson’s work, linked to the successful game title Resident Evil.
This sequel, which would have been completely different from the first one, has made a lot of changes, but it remains steryl in the story.
Andersson, in fact, complicates his work introducing the …
Blood Diamond movie
Before I watched the movie “Blood Diamond” I don’t think I had ever heard about the war over diamonds coming from the African country Sierre Leon. In fact, I think people always seemed to be a bit more focused on genocide in other African countries. One thing that the …
Step Brothers
I watched Step Brothers on DVD the other night and I was laughing so crazy! I do not realize that a movie starring just these two actors, namely Dale, acted out by John C. Reilly and Brennan, acted out by Will Ferrell could really be hand-clapping funny and fun. …
I Am Legend (2007)
Will Smith stars as Robert Neville, a Colonel and a Scientist of sorts. A cure for cancer was found and was made available to the masses where it had unforeseen devastating effects of a fatal nature. The majority who were exposed to the cure, which has basically manifested into …

Happy feet movie
I got this movie free as a gift. I was a bit weary about letting my children watch this movie because of the talking penguins. I am very happy though that I caved in and let them watch it.It is a very inspirational movie that the whole family can …
Constantine (the Movie)
I watched Constantine (with Keanu Reeves) for the fifth or sixth time again last night. Every time I watch it, this movie seems to get better. Even though it came out in 2005, it still doesn’t cease to impress me and I think it will always remain to be …
“Monty Python and the Meaning of Life” (1983 Film)
While this group of British comics are well known for their unique sense of humor, having been portrayed in “Monty Pythons Flying Circus” and in “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”, their second movie, “Monty Python and the Meaning of Life” made in 1983 is filled with much more …
10,000 B.C.
I am very upset with this movie for a lot of reasons. It was one not depicted in that time by any since of the word and all the so called actors were speaking perfect English. I don’t see how this could have gotten even a decent rating for …

Batman Begins (movie 2005)
The best Batman movie to-date, no contest. It shows a more serious and realistic take on the death of Bruce Wayne’s parents and the reason he decided to become the Dark Knight. It takes us alongside him as he struggles to find himself and the adventures he has while …
Movie Tavern
This is by far, hands-down, beyond a shadow of a doubt THE worst movie theater I have ever been to in my life, and I have been to a few pretty bad ones. I have never had a movie experience so ruined as I did the night I attended …

Nicktoons Halloween
My daughter went to Movie Gallery this past weekend and picked out a couple movies from the family section. Since she likes Nickelodeon cartoons, she ended up picking out Nicktoons Halloween to watch.
I’m not sure what my daughter’s obsession with Halloween is but I will admit the DVD does …
127 Hours (2010 film)
2010 was the year of survival films. The best one was the Slumdog Millionaire’ award winning director’s following film, based on the actual, tragic and yet unevenly proud and awe-inspiring story of Aaron Ralston.
The protagonist is a passionate, courageous and dangerously reckless climber who has broken …
Charlie Bartlett movie
Once in a while a teen coming of age movie comes along that I really like, and “Charlie Bartlett” became one of those. In fact, I marveled that I did not hear about it before when it was obvious that the movie was released fairly recently. It starred actors …
Sisters (movie)
Sisters is about two evil sisters, Danielle and Dominique. Danielle and Dominique are twins who are pretty weird. In fact, this entire movie is weird and full of gore and guts. It seems that Danielle and Dominique will not let anything stand in their way, and they stand up …

Mulberry Street, horror film
We’ve all seen millions of zombie movies. Zombie movies are flooding the horror genre. Either original ones come out or terrible remakes. The director Jim Mickle went with a different approach with his plague movie. Instead of zombies taking over a city we have disease carrying rats!
Former boxer …
Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Gallop movie
I have to say that the first thing I noticed about this second entry in the movie’s Miss Marple mystery movie by Agatha Christie is the very bright and campy musical theme. It’s just so bubbly and merry that it seems like follows should be more of a …
“Star Wars: Phantom Menace” (1999 Film)
The 1999 film “Star Wars: Phantom Menace” was just as wonderful as the other films before it. I didn’t think that I would be a fan of the Star Wars movies, but each time I watch a new one I find myself falling in love with them all over …
They Call it Murder movie
They Call it Murder, a 1971 TV film, had a nice opening that I rather loved. The opening credits included a still photo and an action scene of each of the main stars as their name popped up. I applaud the director, Walter Graumann, for this. …

Tom Brown’s School Days movie
I had never heard of 1940’s Tom Brown’s School Days before watching it this afternoon. It was an intriguing view on honesty, integrity, and strictness at an English school called Rugby.
What fascinated me the most was the appearance of Cedric Hardwicke as Dr. Thomas Arnold. At the …
Guess Who (2005 movie)
I’m still wondering if this is a remake of the classic “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner”, for it does not have the flair of the original (that’s of course, if it is a remake). Ashton Kutcher (Simon Green) co-stars with Bernie Mac (Percy Jones) in this family comedy that …
Wonder Woman movie
I haven’t been a fan of Wonder Woman for very long. Most of my knowledge of her came from her supporting role in the Justice League cartoon and comics. It wasn’t until I heard very positive things about Gail Simone’s run that I actually started to pick …

The Movie Open Range (2003)

The North Avenue Irregulars movie
This 1979 Disney movie, The North Avenue Irregulars, is a real hoot. I didn’t see it initially, but came to it years later when I saw it on cable. I was hooked. Now I watch this movie whenever I can find it on TV, which isn’t …
