The Break-Up (movie)
As much as I like Jennifer Aniston, I did not at all enjoy The Break-Up. I had read a bad review before seeing it in the theater, and I didn’t want to see it. The reason I did end up seeing it was that the movie I …

I went to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine in cinema, having already seen the previous X-Men movies and being familiar with the comics and animated series. And I was definitely impressed.

Clambake movie
From 1967, the movie musical Clambake stars the king of rock and roll, Elvis Presley. It’s not an award winner by any means, but it is a fun movie, albeit predictable. It’s just not a stretch of any of the performers’ acting talents. By this point, …
In the Valley of Elah
I am reviewing the 2007 movie, In the Valley of Elah, starring Tommy Lee Jones. The movie focuses on Hank Deerfield, the father of an American soldier gone missing in Iraq. Throughout the course of the film, Hank desperately tries to piece together what happened to his son, Mike. …

Sleepless in Seatle (movie)

Tom Hanks plays this widower with …
The Time Machine movie
It is an entertaining film based on the concept of time traveling. This concept has always thrilled me and I was curious to know about it. The first half of the movie is pretty enjoyable as well as knowledgeable. I am not a die hard fan of science …
Movie: Karate Kid
Synopsis: A teenager from New Jersey gets trained in karate after moving to California and being bullied.
What I liked about this movie: I know the film was recently re-made (and I haven’t seen the remake yet) but I don’t think anyone is better than Pat Morita when it comes …
The Hurt Locker (2009 film)
The Hurt Locker is a film that I expected with great interest not only because of the quantity of praise given to it but also because it was the first film in a long while that was addressing the Iraq war. Kathryn Bigelow, world’s first female …
The Scout (Movie)

Splinter movie
Horror movie fans have been subjected to numerous ghastly, teen-driven horror flicks in recent years. “The Messengers”, “Pulse”, and “The Eye” are just a few of the countless titles that fall into that category, but nestled in among the dreck are a few classics that are a must see …
The Theory of Everything (biographical drama movie)
I was one of those people who was interested in watching the movie “The Thoery of Everything” long before it became nominated for various awards and won several Oscars. This was because I was thrilled with the idea of a movie about Professor Stephen Hawking’s life, his romance with Jane …

License To Wed (2007)
Popular Casts : Robin Williams, Mandy Moore, John Krasinski
Watching this movie really reminds me to “Anger Management” by Jack Nicholson so, for the people who love “Anger Management”, make sure that you watch this movie. To be honest, Robin Williams’ acting is still not better than The Genius Jack …

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 …

Romeo and Juliet
I am reviewing the movie, Romeo and Juliet. This is Franco Zeffirelli’s 1968 adaptation of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Seventeen-year-old Leonard Whiting and 15-year-old Olivia Hussey play Romeo and Juliet, the star-crossed lovers who defy their feuding families in order to be together. Leonard Whiting and Olivia do …
The Big Wheel movie
The Big Wheel is a movie I haven’t seen in a couple of decades, but I actually remember watching it off and on late night on TV when I was growing up. It’s a Mickey Rooney film, and it played often. Perhaps because it’s a movie …

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 …
Craig Gillespie’s Mr. Woodcock, movie

Man On Fire
Man On Fire stars Denzel Washington, Christopher Walken, and Dakota Fanning. This is an exceptional film that dealt with the serious issue of the kidnapping business in Mexico, yet did so in a very warm manner.
How do you make a great film about any subject? …
Jackson Masters The Lovely Bones movie
I don’t think I’ve ever felt so uncomfortable and so gripped by a movie as I did in the first hour of Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones. Considering I pretty much knew what was going to happen, I’d say Mr. Jackson should get all the credit he deserves.
Truly a …
Mirrors movie
I’m not a huge Keifer Sutherland fan so I wasn’t sure what to expect when my wife brought home the horror film Mirrors this past weekend.
Actually, to be fair, my doubts really had little to do with Sutherland. I just figured, reading the package, this was going to be …
Movie: Curious George
A couple years ago, when my oldest daughter was just two or three, the film Curious George came out on DVD and I remember her loving it so much, she watched it several times in one week.

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. …
Prometheus 2012 Science Fiction Film
I will immediately reveal that I have given this film the rating of seven, and it should instantly make a statement about what I think of this movie. I think that this film is good, but not excellent.
I would like to make some comments about the production quality of …
The Invention of Lying
I was expecting The Invention of Lying to be a romantic comedy, and only a decent one, because while I love Ricky Gervais, I do not enjoy the movies which Jennifer Garner does. I figured Gervais’ wonderful, sarcastic, dry, British humour would carry this movie. While Gervais was great, …
Spy (2015)- Comedy Movie
Spy is a comedy movie written and directed by Paul Feig. Honestly, i was never interested in this movie but the only reason that made me watch it was Jason Statham. According to me he is the biggest attraction, though he is only present for few scenes but being his …
