Movie Shrek 3
I loved the first movie of Shrek, and my family and I watched over and over again. Too funny! WE also saw Shrek 2 and I thought that the movie was good, which is pretty crazy for a second. Usually second movies are not worth the money that you …
Running Scared
It’s like a mystery/suspense/thriller type movie with the mob theme thrown in. I honestly did not expect the movie to be as great as I though it was. The first 15 minutes or so, it will look like a cheap, predictable cliche mob flick, but it gets a lot …
Frozen Fever (2015 Animated Short Film)
After over a year, the long awaited sequel to the smash hit Frozen has finally arrived and I have to say that it is a major disappointment.
The story is awfully slight and I know that they couldn’t do much in 7 minutes, but this is too slight regardless. The birthday …
Urban Legends: Bloody Mary, movie
An interesting little horror movie, “Urban Legends, Bloody Mary” is the tale of a vengeful spirit coming back to take revenge years later and several girls accidentally say her name. The story opens with the proverbial tale of the legend and shows how Bloody Mary came to be after …
The Bells of St. Mary’s
The Bells of St. Mary’s is the sequel to Going My Way and stars Bing Crosby as Father O’Malley out to save another part of the Church. This time, it’s not a parish that needs him, but a school which is in crisis. His skeptical foe this …
King Kong vs. Godzilla
King Kong vs. Godzilla is the first color Godzilla movie, and in a way, I kind of wish that it was not. Both King Kong and Godzilla look ugly and fake as do the sets and the military tanks and other artillery. I also do not like how the …
Transformers - The Movie
I grew up with Transformers. I owned Optimus Prime, watched the cartoons, knew the theme song. So there was both great anticipation and a small amount of dread when I heard that Michael Bay was producing a live action, CGI filled Transformers movie. The anticipation came …
The Orphanage
I watched a film on DVD recently called The Orphanage. I was attracted to this film for two reasons, one being that it is all in Spanish and I love foreign films, but the other, more important reason, was that it is made by Guillermo Del Toro, the same …
Loch Ness (1996)
Since I’ve always been fascinated with the mystery surrounding the Loch Ness monster, I didn’t hesitate to watch a movie about it.
However, as far as movies are concerned, Loch Ness falls well short of being entertaining.
Ted Danson plays a scientist who is highered to prove once and for all …
Shoot them up Film
Shoot them up is being directed by Michael Devis its star Clive own and Monica Bellucci in lead and called giamittai as villain. This is basically as action movie. It doesn�t really have any thing more then action. The story is about oven trying to save a child …
Lord of the G Strings Femaleship of the String, DVD Softcore Movie
Seduction Cinema made a ton of softcore movies. Maybe they made too many of them. One of the production company’s most popular films is Lord of the G-Strings, a softcore take on the Lord of the Rings trilogy. All of Seduction Cinema’s top players were in this movie in …
The Lucky One Movie
After hearing only dismal things about this movie in its reviews, I decided to watch it for myself and found that the people who were speaking negatively were not that far off. The plot of the movie is good. Young man finds picture of a woman in war that …
Star Trek The Motion Picture movie
This is the first entry in what was to become a very long and hugely successful series of Star Trek films starring the cast from the 1960s TV shows. As such, I think that any Star Trek fan will want to watch it, but perhaps not all that many …
Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire
Even though I have yet to attempt to read the books, I actually enjoy the Harry Potter movies when they come out. However, the fourth installment of the series, The Goblet of Fire, seems a bit weak compared to the first three.
I think part of it is the characters …
The 13th Warrior (1999 movie)
Where do they get these ideas from? An Arab travels to the north countries where he is chosen to accompany 12 Viking warriors on a mission to seek out and destroy a dark evil. Antonio Banderas plays the role of the ill-fated Arab with his long-winded name…I wouldn’t even …
The Fisher King Movie
Wow The Fisher King is probably now one of my favorite movies and probably one of the best performance by Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams. The story is so deep and heartfelt is almost made me cry at the end. The story is about this radio show host who is …
Movie: Executive Decision
I was at my parent’s house yesterday afternoon having dinner with them and my dad was watching some movies. Since it was too loud in their kitchen, I decided to join him and ended up seeing the film Executive Decision; a movie I have seen in the past but …
The Strangers (2008 Film)
The 2008 movie The Strangers, has changed the way I think about staying home alone, or answering the door late at night. This film was terrifying, and reached into the core of my darkest fears that have no come to the surface thanks to this rated R tale of …
Wi-heom-han gyan-gye (Dangerous Liaisons) movie
By and large, in Asian cinema, you can attempt to make a dramatic romance by either appealing to a localized sense of humour than might make it seem more uplifting, or you can pursue an angle popularized by Wong Kar Wai and heighten the drama using boiling stifled passion …
Inception movie
Inception is a 2010 movie that I wouldn’t dream to try to explain in a review. It’s just impossible. You can try to simplify it by saying it’s about people extracting information through dreams, but that wouldn’t do the complexity of the plot any justice. It’s …
Dante’s Peak movie
As a rule, I love disaster movies. I’ve watched a bunch, and many of them are on my favorite movies list. I was therefore eager to see this movie when it first came out. I remember being a little disappointed in the action. Recently, I …
The Land Before Time: The Great Day of the Flyers
My daughter has never watched any of the Land Before Time movies before. So, when she picked out one of the newer movies in the series “The Great Day of the Flyers,” I was skeptical about her watching even a few minutes of it.
However, I found she actually enjoyed …
The Duchess
This is one historical movie that I found very fascinating even though it was a drama. It stars Kierra Knightly (Elizabeth Swann from Pirates of the Caribbean) and she does an expert job of playing the lead role of the Duchess. To make matters even more interesting, the story …
Cranford dvd
‘Cranford’ by Elizabeth Gaskell has been made into a five part series, now available to buy on dvd.
It has been adapted by the BBC who seem to be masters of making period dramas for television. The story is set in a Cranford; a market town in the north west …
Suspiria
I think Suspiria is probably one of the scariest. If not the scariest movie ever made. This movie is old from the year 1977. But I still enjoy it. In fact I think older movies like Suspiria are the best kind of movies. I just loved the spooky music …
World War 2: The Lost Color Archives
Last week I decided to learn a bit more about the second world war, I think it is important to know how it went and what happened during that war. So I decided to view a documentary about it. The reason I watched this specific documentary is because it …
A Life Less Ordinary
“A Life Less Ordinary” represents the early stages of two great actors; Cameron Diaz and Ewan McGregor. This is a very funny romantic comedy were we can see the great talents of the then almost unknown actors. In this movie, they are both sporting a trendy spiky haircut. We …
The Horror Within
When I decided to watch the movie The Horror Within the other night, it was with the expectation it would be a low-budget, cheesy horror flick.
I was partially right. It was low budget and cheesy but it was more of a comedy than a horror movie.
Let’s face it, whenever …
Movie Superman
I was watching some movies on TV last night and came across Superman. I hadn’t seen it in a while so I figured I would give the movie (which is almost as old as I am) another chance.
It is still as good today as it was then; which is …
Friday
I think Friday is a great movie. The movie stars Ice Cube and he does a great job of acting in this movie. I really like the fact that this movie shows us how life in the hood really is. I think the movie was very well written and well …
The Others Movie
I really liked this movie, and not only me but a lot of my friends did! This movie is so twisted and so shocking at one part and it features Nicole Kidman as a single mother of 2 who is very meticulous and strict because she has 2 photosensitive …
Disturbing Behavior
I did not get to watch the movie “Disturbing Behavior” when it just came out or even a little after it just came out since I never saw or heard of it. However, recently I heard about it and decided to watch it especially since I realised that Katie …
Stuck in the Suburbs
When the movie Stuck in the Suburbs came on television last night, my first thought was “Great, another teenaged chick flick.” But, after watching it simply because there was nothing better on, I discovered it was actually a pretty good movie.
The Disney Channel Original centers around two girls …
Knocked Up The Movie
I was fortunate enough to be able to see this movie in the theatres and I loved it. I don’t agree with the message it sends to its viewers but I found it funny and entertaining just the same. And here’s why you should watch Knocked Up.
Knocked …
Green Zone
Green Zone movie is based on the American invasion of Iraq and the truth behind it. I reckon its one of the best Non-Friction movie made this year and the truth behind the Iraq war has really been well told by the movie. Really liked the Matt Damon’s acting …
Cloverfield
Many movies claim to have you on the edge of your seat, but I have never seen a movie do that literally… until I watched Cloverfield. This monster flick redefines the genre and brings viewers a first person look into what an apocalyptic experience is like. The movie was …
Roman Polanski’s “Oliver Twist,” 2005
I went to see Roman Polanski’s 2005 release of “Oliver Twist” a couple of days ago. I was not disappointed, but I wasn’t very impressed, either. One of the good points is that the story is not in any way “Hollywoodized,” it is told in a straight, true-to-the-source way. …
The Mighty Ducks (1992)
The Mighty Ducks, directed by Stephen Herek is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for mild language. The original release date was October 2, 1992 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Comedy/Drama/Family/Sport and stars Emilio Estevez as Gordon Bombay, Joss Ackland …
The Princess & The Warrior (R, 2000) movie
“The Princess and the Warrior” is truly a film that you will not mind reading the subtitles on. As a matter of fact, you may find that you’ve forgotten that this film is in German. Franka Potente stars in this film as a psychiatric nurse …
I Can Do Bad All By Myself film (2009)
I Can Do Bad All By Myself is another one of my favorite films from the director Tyler Perry. In my honest opinion I feel like this one of his best pieces compared to some of his recent work. I also call this one a classic because it’s well …
Movie Homocide
Homicide with Joe Mantegna and Bill Macy.
I do not believe that this movie made the big screen as it was pretty cheesy. It focuses on two crimes in New York City. One was a black cop killer who only needed to be located. …
Memphis Belle movie
Memphis Belle is an airplane serving in war and its crew is one of the best of the whole fleet. Time and again have they completed missions behind enemy lines and only one is left before they can return home. This one however, doesn’t turn out as well as …
The movie Lilo and Stitch 2: Stitch Has A Glitch
I loved the first Lilo and Stitch movie. It really is one of my favorite movies and one that I could not wait to own. However, I could have been more excited when I saw that there was to be a sequel Lilo and Stitch 2: Stitch Has A …
The Omnimax Theater
Although I feel you might be able to add “four dimensional” components such as motion and interaction with live objects simultaneous with the viewing of the film, the Omnimax provides what I consider the bets visual and audio experience possible.
I’ll get the sound out of the way because it …
Movie Night of the Howling (1975)
Oh man or man oh man! Is this movie a wild ride through cinematic mayhem, weirdness and excess?
Paul naschy is back as Waldemar the werewolf and he’s headed to Tibet to look for the Abominable Snowman. He gets lost in the mountains and discovers a cave inhabited by two …
Richard III movie
Another film based on a play by Shakespeare, but moved to a modern environment. This time it’s set in England in the 1930s, where a civil war has lead to the death of the king. A new king is reinstated, but his younger brother is planning a plot against …
“Funny games” movie
Shocking, but very real movie - saturated with brutality so well known to us from many other images. This time, however, it is presented in a unique way. The director wanted not only to make another movie like his predecessors, but also realize some important things to us …
Idyllic …
Chasing Liberty
You actually realise how important a creative script writer is when you watch two movies with the same story line. The difference between both of them can be the level of acting and the creativity involved.
This is the case of the movie “Chasing Liberty” that has the same storyline …
