The Expendables movie
“The Expendables” (2010, rated ‘R’) starring Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Jet Li is a terrific action movie perfect for those of us old enough to remember when the original “Rambo,” “Die Hard” and “Terminator” films were in theatres! “The Expendables” is like ‘old home week’ with lots of …
Destination Moon movie
Since everyone but my youngest daughter was asleep this morning, I figured I would sit down and find a movie to watch on TV. After some searching, I ended up settling for the 1950s film Destination Moon.
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be a …
King Kong Movie
I recently went to go see King Kong at a movie theatre. It was everything I expected. King Kong was full of action, suspense and romance. This movie protrays the well known saying, “beauty killed the beast.” King Kong is one of the best movies in 2005. And anyone …

High School Musical movie
This is one of the best newer movies to come out of Disney in the recent future.
Set around a basketball player and the class brain trying out for the school’s musical and landing the lead roles, the movie has a fun plot to follow and some great music.
I’ve seen …
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 …
Mickey Blue Eyes
I think I must have watched “Mickey Blue Eyes” endless times and I still keep watching it. What I like about it most is that it presents a very different perspective on how to portrait the mafia on the big screen. One can have no difficulty believing the mafia …

Jaws
Jaws is probably one of the scariest movies ever made. And Jaws is also the reason I’m scared to go in the water when I’m at the beach. This movie can really scare people and really make you feel uncomfortable. I really did enjoy the music in jaws. The …

Hot Rod (the movie)
Hot Rod is surprisingly hilarious! I thought this would be a dull humor flick, but I found myself laughing through 90% of the movie. Its a comedy about a 20 something year old guy living with his mom and stepdad aspiring to be a stunt man. …
Baby Mama
I was a little wary of seeing the movie “Baby Mama.” Its rated PG-13, first of all, and I’ve noticed that most PG-13 movies these days are geared towards the youngsters who are limited to that rating. Second of all, the topic itself… the concept of a hopeful mother …
The X-Files Movie
Highly acclaimed science fiction series The X-Files makes it first venture onto the big screen, with Mulder and Scully becoming embroiled in even more shenanigans involving the villainous Syndicate and the dastardly alien invasion plot they’ve spent decades concealing from the public.
Ultimately, this movie is a successful venture for the …

Failure to Launch movie
I recently rented the movie Failure to Launch with Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker. I originally rented the movie purely because Matthew McConaughey is quite attractive, but it ended up being a great laugh. The concept is that Matthews character is 35 and he still lives at …
Zombiethon [VHS], Horror movie
Going old school with this review and I mean old school. Zombiethon is a VHS that features clips from 7 zombie movies. No, that wasn’t a typo from me; Zombiethon is just a collection of other movies. Why would something like even be created? Maybe the same reason why …

America’s Sweethearts
This movie has some great actors in it, including Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones, but it’s not a movie I’d sit and watch over and over again. It’s a great Cinderella type movie, but it’s just not my favorite of all time chick flick. This movie feels like the …
The 40 Year Old Virgin (Movie)

Sucker Punch (2011) Movie
It is odd that I read the synopsis of a movie, get interested in it and then watch it, only to be disappointed in the end. The synopsis for the movie on Netflix calls it a “mind warping action thriller”. Then on top of that very attractive statement it …
Out to Sea movie
From 1997, Out to Sea is a surprisingly funny motion picture. Even with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau teamed yet again, I just wasn’t sure that this movie would have what it takes to entertain all the way through, but I shouldn’t have worried. With these two …

Movie: Stomp the Yard

At one point, movies that featured dance numbers were entertaining …
Windchill (R, 2007) movie
Please, please, please…if you want to see a horrible horror movie, rent Wind Chill. I really thought, based on the reviews I saw on the Netflix website, that this film would be a little different than the typical “Scares in the Wildnerness” movies. I was right. …
The Great St Trinians Train Robbery - Film 1966
We are not talking your recent remake here - we are talking vintage St Trinians and the Great St Trinians Train Robbery was the only one of the original four to be made in colour. In the 1960’s this was something quite new and it has been said by …
Snatch movie
Im was a huge fan of Lock Stock and Two Smokin barrels and when Snatch was released I was unsure of what to expect.

Casino Royale
Bond movies recently have not lived up to there predecessors from the Connery or Dalton days. So, Casino Royale is just another money grab with the 007 nametag right? Wrong. Not only is this one of the best Bond movies, it is also one of the …
9 to 5 by Dolly Pardon
9 to 5 is the first song that I personally remember hearing Dolly Pardon perform on TV. I saw the movie a few years latter when it came out and just about died laughing. It has a way of demonstrating the male stereo type of so many bosses. It …
