Last Vegas (2013 Film)
Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …
Scy Fy’s “Stonehenge Apocalypse” made-for-tv movie
The made-for-TV, Scy-fy produced film in question is much like the title suggests: campy, amusing and predictable. The plot is predictable enough and involves a conspiracy theorist, an attractive female scientist who becomes convinced by his vision in a pairing popular since Mulder and Scully, and ancient civilizations as …

Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing
I have wanted to see the documentary Dixie Chicks: Shut Up and Sing for several years now, but only got around to it last week. I was a fan of the group, but I became a real fan after they were literally blackballed by the right wingers in the …
Strigoi, movie (2009)
Its safe to say that vampires aren’t what they used to be. The dark forces of evil that they are in books, like Bram Stoker’s Dracula and films like The Lost Boys, have been brushed aside for more romanticized versions in True Blood and Twilight. Fortunately, there …

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. …

Iron Man is a comic book based supero movie is the story of Tony Staerk played by Robert Downey Jr., and how he becomes the superhero Iron Man. Tony is accompanied to Afghanistan where Tony tests out the Jericho missiles. On the way back he is captured …
Legally Blonde movie
I remember first seeing the trailers for “Legally Blonde” when the movie came out in 2001; they promised some laughs, but overall, I wasn’t impressed and did not go to see the movie. Elle, the main character, seemed too “girly” for me: a fashion-freak blonde wearing pink & high …
Corpse Bride movie
I think Corpse Bride was a great film. It was very dark and had lots of feeling in it. And it was a tale told in the classic Tim Burton style. I really liked the story and thought it was both very dark, yet very romantic. I really loved the …
Sunless movie
This is one of the most famous films by inventive french filmmaker Chris Marker (name taken from the “Magic Marker” filt pen, at least that’s what I read somewhere). It´s somewhere between a documentary and a fictional film, as it shows these “sunless” images from different cultures around the …

Thirteen Ghosts
The movie formula for Thirteen Ghosts works for me. I love the plot and though it’s a bit nonsensical to see these ghosts lurking with their weird designs and features, but it’s still a bonus to watch this.
I felt that this movie is like one of its …

Continuing ending both movies, ultimately successful rescue Jack Sparrow from Davy Jones locker of the aid Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann, Tia Dalma, and Captain Barbossa, and of course all The Black Pearl crony.

Apartment 1303
I am a fan of Asian horror movies. I purchased this DVD movie “Apartment 1303″, a Japanese horror, because I was attracted to its title and also the cover. The cover is pictured with one creepy red eye on the right side, and a door numbered 1303 on the …
Halloween II (2009) movie
Rob Zombie’s journey from musician to filmmaker has certainly been interesting. The goth-rocker’s journey from ‘Dragula’ to ‘Devil’s Reject’ has been an odd mix of trashy screams and atmospheric horror, Rob Zombie’s films have always been something else. And ’something else’ is probably the best way to …
Across The Universe - The Film
The 1960’s were an overwhelming era that fostered some of the greatest legends to ever be established in the music industry, including The Beatles. Although it has been decades, the groups’ music still remains renowned and in October 2007 —“ a film was made, showcasing many classic Beatles songs …
The Dark Knight (2008 Film)
The 2008 film “The Dark Knight”, starring a terrific Christian Bale as Batman, and the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, was even better than the first movie, “Batman Begins”. When in comparison, I feel that “The Dark Knight” has so much more power behind it’s actors, even more …
Mulholland Drive (2001)
Mulholland Drive is an absolute masterpiece from surreal director David Lynch, but it is not for everybody I guess. Some people are going to be irritated at the strangeness of this film, but others like me enjoy that strangeness and it serves to draw us into the mystery. …
Inception Movie (2010)
The last movie I saw was Inception (2010). It stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levit (Arthur), Ellen Page (Ariadne),Tom Hardy (Eames),Ken Watanabe(Saito) Dileep Rao (Yusuf) and Cillian Murphy (Robert Fischer, Jr.). This is by-far the best mind bending movie I have seen in a long time.
I think …
Movie Cabin Fever
I would have to say that Cabin Fever is one of my most favorite horror movies. You might think that it is crazy that I say that, but i have a reason for saying that.
the theme of the movie is a flesh eating disease that is responsible …
Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones
I would have to admit that Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones is certainly a step up from Episode I, although I personally enjoy Episode III the most out of the original trilogy. Whereas Episode I had the burden of introducing characters and not just setting up …
The Interpreter, movie (2005)
Have you ever suffered from knowing your mother language? Silvia Broome (Kidman), a translator working at the U.N. headquarters, witnesses a conspiracy in the language of the small African country where she was born. And, as luck would have it, she understands everything.

Cemetery Gates (movie)
Normally I enjoy most creature and scary animal movies, but I found this one a large disappointment. When I first heard about Cemetery Gates I was quite eager to see it as I had never seen a horror movie about a Tasmanian devil. So when I did see it, …
Cheaper by the dozen 1 Movie
Cheaper By The Dozen 1 (the first movie) is a great story. It’s about a family called the Bakers who have twelve children. Tom Baker played by Steve Martin is classic in his part. He stays true to the comical type of actor that he is. Tom’s wife played …
The Shop on Main Street
The greatness of East European cinema I guess need no further introduction. The Shop on Main Street is in my own humble opinion the greatest of all masterpieces coming out that area, directed by rather unkown Hungarians Ján Kadár and Elmar Klos.
As with many powerful movies of the mid-twentieth …
Aquamarine
I watched Aquamarine with my ex boyfriend years back and up till now, if there are any of my young cousins coming, this would be one of their most favorite DVD to watch.
The mermaid is so gorgeous in this movie and acted by Sara Paxton. I really …
Warm Bodies (movie)
Just a few days ago, one of my friends and I went to see the movie “Warm Bodies”, which seemed like one of the few interesting movies going on despite what some people had said about it in reviews on the internet. The few reviews and comments about it …
Phone Booth (starring Colin Farrell)
Have you ever heard the saying one phone call is all it takes to make a difference? Well, I watched Phone Booth before and this pretty much sums up what I just said. Watching this movie before, after the show had ended, I thought that it is pretty …
The Four: Final Battle (2013 Chinese-Hong Kong Wuxia Movie)
Chinese-Hong Kong Wuxia film directed by Gordon Chan and Janet Chun. It is the last of The Four trilogy.
I’ve finally finished my marathon of The Four trilogy and I feel—¦ nothing much. To be honest, I don’t really enjoy the trilogy as much as I expected.
There are a number of …
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 …
Movie Fired Up
We watched the movie Fired Up this past weekend. When I decided to watch it, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be an OK movie.
OK, let me start out by saying this film isn’t for everyone in the family. It was about as raunchy …
Oklahoma musical
Oklahoma is a sprawling musical that has the most beautiful scenery. The opening with Curly riding along through the fields and singing Oh What a Beautiful Morning is a smiler. They don’t make movies like this anymore, and that’s a tragedy.
Gordon MacRae is brilliant as Curly, the …
Shutter Island movie
This latest Martin Scorsese movie is definitely not his greatest creation but is a compelling watch for its grabbing suspense and magnificent plot. Shutter Island is a movie that has many wonderful performances and excellent direction. The setting of the island in midst of the ocean and intriguing ambience …

Scott `Stingray` Timmins (Ben Nicholas) tours Ramsey Street

I have always enjoyed Tom Hanks as an actor and I also Like Leonardo De Caprio as an actor. A few years ago my son and I went to see the movie, Cathc me if YOu Can. This was a movie that was based on a real …
Imprint - Movie
Asian horror movies are credited to be really scary, I remembered watching one horror movie from Japan, and the contortionist ghost in the movie is hunting me in my dreams.
Imprint is a horror movie that originated from Japan and directed by Takashi Miike and apparently Imprint comes from …
Flags of Our Fathers, Clint Eastwood Movie
Iwo Jima, during World War II took place, in the United States troops there dead or live, fight against Japanese troops. However, this movie is not addressing the war. Sketch opened with a conversation between James, son of John Bradley, a soldier who wave the flag at Iwo Jima, …
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Journey to the Center of the Earth was fantastic. This movie is 3D. You are given 3D glasses upon purchasing your ticket. As for the movie, it was quite good. The 3D effects are used well. I believe that they could’ve been used even more than they were, but …
Fair Game movie
A second rate action film with the model Cindy Crawford in the role of a woman who is followed by a seemingly crazy man. This whole film is an excuse for promoting Crawford’s career in my opinion, and that result is, not very unexpected, an embarrassing attempt of something …
Wanted Movie
I was excited to see this movie. I was a bit disappointed when I finally watched it. I expected more action from it. There was actually some, but I am not contented. The plot itself is thin and the story is typical. The first few minutes were exciting but …
The Invasion Movie
I think The Invasion is one of those movies that probably could have been pretty good, but ended up getting the raw end of the stick. The movie was supposed to come out a few years ago, but kept getting pushed back and pushed back. I remember reading a …
Strawberry Panic anime
“Strawberry Panic!” is a cute romantic subtle-drama series, featuring lesbian relationships between girls at an exclusive all-female
affiliated schools. While the lesbianisism theme is a bold step to take for anime, I don’t think the series was good enough. It did evoke much
emotion or attention in the viewer, neither through …
On a Clear Day You Can See Forever
In 1970, Barbra Streisand starred in On a Clear Day You Can See Forever. At first, I don’t really think I understood this film. I saw it a couple of times, but it never really did anything for me. As I got older, though, the film …
