The Tiny Times is a romance drama movie series based on novels by Guo Jing Ming. It’s made up of 4 movies (Tiny Time 1-4). The movies are all directed by the author himself.

The series is glamorous and beautiful. And I mean the costumes, locations and casts, not the …

Synopsis: A family hires a seemingly perfect nanny only to discover she is secretly seeking revenge against them.
What I liked about this movie: A lot of movies only hint at a person’s past and might give you a clue or two to figure it out for yourself. I personally …

While every other girl in the world was looking forward to New Moon I wasn’t sure what to expect. I found the first movie in the series Twilight entertaining but not worth all the fuss and the book was simple at best.
So I went in to see New …

I have seen several movies based on this classic by Charlotte Bronte, and this 1983 version starring Zelah Clarke as Jane and Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester is, in my opinion, by far the best. The plot is very true to the book, and the two leading actors were …

The movie War starring Jason Statham and Jet Li is an action packed thriller that is very intense. I just watched this movie recently and found it to be very worthwild. There are so many twists and turns that it will keep you on the edge of your seat. …

This classic war story and loose depiction of Joseph Conrad’s novel Heart of Darkness, was made by the Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola in the late 1970s under hardcircumstances. The result of all work is nothing less than a masterpiece with brilliant performances by Martin Sheen and, more than …

My husband and I saw this movie last weekend. We went to a Sunday matinee and the theatre was PACKED! The theatre was full of mostly girls, but my husband didn’t mind too much. This is definitely a chick flick.
The cast was great. I especially loved Ginnifer Goodwin and …

Before Paul Mooney decided to strike the “N” word from his personal (and professional) vocabulary in 2006, he released a DVD called “Know Your History.” Mooney is known for being extremely controversial, as much of his routines revolve around race relations. In “Know Your History”, he addresses …

And the movie starts off with a battle between Team Jacob and Team Edward. Thank you Vampires Suck for starting things off not so right and it continues with Edward getting fully naked and a disco ball is his penis—¦oh man all the vampires look it too. The fun …

This was one of the most touching films I have ever seen. But I will admit that while watching most of it, I thought: “Is this guy a dumb azz?” I am only saying this because despite his contempt for materialism, he seemed completely unprepared for …

This is one of those love it or hate it movies. I don’t think there is anyone who came away from this with a middle of the road reception. I myself could’ve gone either way as many of the reviews I heard were “it’s really good, it’s …

If you ever want an idea about how our government handled terrorist threats prior to 9/11, the movie The Siege is a good film.
Not only does it star everyone from Denzel Washington to Bruce Willis, it�s a movie that is so full of twists and turns you don�t know …

You probably know the tag-line “Who is watching the watchmen?” and should add yourself to the list of people doing just that.
I’m a confessed sci-fi/fantasy geek, pretty up there in the scale but short of Klingon-speaking-Con-attending-Trekkie status. So I knew I would like this film. Even if you’re not …

I’ve just had a chance to watch Thor: The Dark World in 3D and I thought I would share some of the things I liked or disliked about this movie. I am a fan of all comic related movies and after seeing the first Thor movie, I had some …

As I said in my “Moneyball” review, I am not totally a fan of sports movie and sports in general, but I did love that film. I had no intention watching sports-related films unless they’re really good but today I was left with no choice - I had a tight …

The movie, starring …

There’s rarely a sequel to a Hollywood blockbuster that lives up the original in any way. I have to agree with this when it comes to the second installment of the Jason Bourne series, The Bourne Supremacy. Though it’s still good, I can’t say that it holds a candle …

For what it’s worth, biographical dramas are too often hard to pull off. Directors and storytellers need to be cautious with the underlying melodrama that this type of movies usually evokes. While it’s good for some viewers, experienced moviegoers looking for good or better films are going to be disappointed …

OK, maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Nick Nolte fan but I just can’t seem to get the movie Mulholland Falls. When it first came out, it looked entertaining. I like thrillers that make me think and thought this film would fit that category. And, having some A-list …

I saw “Vajra Sky Over Tibet” yesterday afternoon here in Bellingham at the Pickford Theatre, our local independent, artistic theatre. The movie is a documentary that bills itself as a pilgrimage to Tibet. I described it to a friend as a spiritual and political travelogue.
This is a very good, …

I was a bit disappointed with this movie. I would like to commend Halle Berry for a job well done but the same does not go to the movie as a finished product. I don’t want to call anyone stupid among those who made this film …

This was a pretty fun episode. I enjoyed it and it …

This 2003 release was obviously meant to be a “spooky comedy” of sorts, with ghosts and zombies who come alive in their tomb in a most inconvenient time. Perhaps some kids liked it, and perhaps it was okay to watch once for some adults. But to me, it was …

When I saw the actress Rutina Wesley in the popular cable television series “True Blood”, I could not place my finger on where I had seen her before since she looked so familiar to me, and it was only later that I found out that it was she who …

My daughter loves the newer Scooby Doo episodes. So, when she wanted to rent a movie last weekend, we ended up picking up a movie that featured several episodes “Monstrous Tails.”

For those of you that grew up with the magic of Pixar, you most definitely know of the many adventures of toy legends, Woody the cowboy and Buzz Lightyear, the space ranger and all their companions. I speak of the first ever Pixar computer generated animation film, Toy Story.
Now …

I thought that the movie the Great Debaters was an excellent movie. I know that there are a lot of movies like this one, about racism or slavery but this is a good movie. It isn’t like all the rest; it is a totally different movie. It’s …

Of all the Walt Disney movies that are out there, the Little Mermaid has to be one of the more colorful ones. Prior to the bad sequels and the even worst television series, this movie was an inspiration for future underwater tales, including Nemo.
My daughter isn’t very good at …

Although its not my favorite Pixar movie, Toy Story is such an important film because it started Pixar’s rise to greatness. Toy Story was made in 1995, but is still a visual treat for the eyes 13 years later. Toy Story is a modern classic that may be …

I had first watched that movie when a friend of mine was getting married; she was looking for wedding ideas, and someone had recommended the just released “Father of the Bride.” Well, as to wedding ideas, my friend did not get any: her finances were far more modest than …

When it comes to action movies, there are none better than Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, when it comes to comedies, there are few worse.
The movie Twins is probably Schwarzenegger’s best attempt and, while there are some funny scenes, it really isn’t all that great.
He and Danny Devito play twin brothers …

I went to go see this movie against my own will. My friends all wanted to see A Shark’s Tale, and I was outnumbered, so I had to go. Let me make this clear, I did not want to see this movie at all! It looked like a cheesy …

The Venture Bros is definitely my favorite TV show these days. Its unusual brand of humor, along with its unique writing and excellent animation (especially by the usually low Adult Swim standards) make it one of the best things around these days when it comes to TV. …
