Movies Reviews
Hulk (2003)
Here is another example of why Hollywood should stay as far away from comic book remakes as possible. This movie is so bad, it makes ‘bad’ seem like a candy bar. At first when the movie started, I was all geared up to enjoy Hulk style destruction similar to …
One Missed Call Movie
One Missed Call is a complete waste of time and I’m not saying that because I was disappointed or because I didn’t like one actor, but because this movie was absolutely horrible. The sad thing is that I was really excited to see this movie and had been for …

Despicable Me Movie
Rarely am I interested in movies, so it always comes as a surprise for me if I’m interested in watching a movie for a second or even third time. Despicable Me was such a great movie that I now have it on a regular weekend rotation. This movie, starring …
Hide and Seek
Hide and Seek is an intense, well structured, mysterious and frightening movie. I watched this as I was a fan of Dakota Fanning, and found this movie to be spectacular.
Of course, there are many twists and things that confused me a little, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like …

I have always been an X men fan but after the last set of X men related movies I was just not very excited about this next X men movie. I didn’t think it would be that great but I was wrong. Wow X men first class if what the …

The Librarian: Quest for the Spear
Some time ago, I heard about the movie “The Librarian” and didn’t think much of it. I figured, at most, it would be a rip off of Indiana Jones and, without the great special effects and the star power of Harrison Ford, would prove to be lame.
I ended up …
Dead Like Me: Always
This episode of Dead Like Me entitled Always was one of the most poignant episodes of the Showtime science fiction series. It concluded an ongoing subplot that had gone on for much of the season with Mandy Patinkin’s character of Rube. Without spoiling what the final resolution …

A classic movie is one that lasts through the ages, and Ben-Hur is definitely one of those. It’s an epic motion picture produced with high quality everything. It won 11 Academy Awards. The masterful and commanding Charlton Heston took home one of those, winning the Best …
Apt Pupil: movie
Apt Pupil is a chilling and frightening movie based on a novella by Stephen King. The novella, a long short story or mini novel, appeared in the book Differing Seasons. Although the screenwriters of the movie changed the ending, it was very faithful to the original story.
In …
Hotel Rwanda movie
Depicting the horrible massacre in Rwanda in the 1990s, this film features an excellent Don Cheadle as the man who tries to save as many people from being killed as he can. Unfortunately, the film focuses all to much on the mere sentimental parts, and leaves the audience practically …
Titanic movie
What can I say about the second highest grossing movie in the world? A lot, I guess. First, I have seen it at least twenty different times, ten of which was from the big screen. I guess I was one of those moviegoers who contributed to …

Iron Man (2008)
Another interesting movie I saw this week. But if you wanted a superhero movie like Superman you will clearly not find it in Iron Man, because it’s the antithesis of the ordinary loser who becomes a superhero as a consequence of a truly extraordinary event(I prefer those if you …
The Haunting in Connecticut movie
I watched The Haunting in Connecticut the other day with my boyfriend and there are lots of scary moments for me. I was so scared out of my mind and a lot of times it made me laugh because I was so nervous like when a member of the …
Vacancy
Vacancy is one of those movies that probably shouldn’t work, but somehow it does. The story picks up with a couple driving home from a party thrown by the woman’s family. They haven’t yet told anyone that they’re getting a divorce because they can’t deal with the son they …
Wall-E
When I saw all the ads to Wall-E, I thought that it was going to be a boring movie with a lot of silence, but I was wrong. It was one of the best animations that Disney has made yet, both graphically as well as in the story line …
European Vacation movie
The Griswald family receives the first prize in a contest, which is a trip to Europe where they believe they will have a lovely vacation together. For different reasons, this vacation doesn’t turn out exactly as expected.

Ouija (supernatural horror movie)
I was in the mood to watch a horror movie recently and couldn’t figure out which one to watch. That was when I remembered one called “Ouija” that I had seen the trailer of when I went to watch something else in the theatre. While it was obvious that the …

Say It Isn’t So movie
“Say It Isn’t So” was mainly promoted as the movie from the same producers of “Something About Mary”. However this movie together with the movie “Me, You and Irene” cannot really be compared to the great success of “Something About Mary”. I must also admit that between “Me, You …

Pirates of the Carribean- Dead Man’s Chest
It’s very rare when I spend the money to go see a movie at the movie theater. After seeing Pirates of the Carribean-Dead Man’s Chest, I was glad I did.
Set shortly after the original Pirates, the movie covered continuing adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann …
The Mirror Has Two Faces
I admit I am a great fan of Barbra Streisand. I believe she is simply wonderful in whatever she does. The movie “The Mirror Has Two Faces” in which she is an actress, director, producer and music director is no exception. It comes to no surprise that this movie …

I Could Never Be Your Woman
I watched I Could Never Be Your Woman and I think that Michelle Pfeiffer is a very good actress despite her age. She plays a woman with a daughter and this is actually a very nice movie, if you watch it and give it a chance.
Paul Rudd …
Winter’s Bone Movie
Winter’s Bone is the kind of movie that drags you down for hours after you finish watching it. Nothing particularly gory or traumatizing happens, however this slow, heavy clunker pulls you down like a boulder. I cannot figure out for the life of me why or how this film …

Movie License to Wed
Although some may label this movie as a Mandy Moore movie; in reality this comedy is all about the actor, Robin Williams. I personally have a soft spot for Robin Williams because he is simply great in whatever he interprets. In this movie, we see him to interpret the …
That Touch of Mink movie
From 1962, That Touch of Mink pairs Doris Day with the debonair Cary Grant. For me, this has always been somewhat of an odd couple, but it made for a good motion picture, never the less. There certainly are a lot of reasons to enjoy this entertaining …
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 …
The 13th Warrior, Movie
Panned by critics upon release, and still without a Director’s Cut to see the light of day, I think The 13th Warrior is an overlooked gem much deserving of your attention. It was supposed to be an epically scaled historical adventure based on Michael Crichton’s book The Eaters of the …
Road House movie
Some movies achieve cult status, and that is exactly what has happened to Road House, the movie in which Patrick Swayze stars as the philosophical bar bouncer, Dalton. To be precise, Dalton is the cooler, the man in charge of the staff that keeps his bars safe for …
Bride of Chucky (Child Play 4) movie

“Phone” Movie 2004 from Tartan Asia Extreme
I rented this movie from Netflix because I had pretty much seen all the other horror ones on my list and had become bored waiting for new ones to come out. I had enjoyed foreign films in the past, and always found Asian horror to be different and interesting. Like …
Scary Movie 2
Have you guys ever watched Scary Movie 2 on theaters before..? Well, I did and it was so darn and hilariously funny. There are just too many scenes to mention that I especially admire and the fact that the creators of the movie could have made something truly …

Robots Movie
This creative and somewhat inspiring computer animated story would have been better without certain types of humor. As I’ve already said in my review of both Shreks, farting, in my opinion, is not funny but disgusting, and shouldn’t be on the screen. As to the story itself, it’s all …
Kick-Ass (2010 Film)
The 2010 film “Kick-Ass” was supposed to be a film that portrays the average guy wanting to become a super hero to save the world against evil, of course with a few adult type humor comedy thrown in and a few love scenes where the ordinary teenager gets the …
