Feed (NR, 2005) movie

Movie: Planet 51

In Her Majesty’s Secret Service movie
In Her Majesty’s Secret Service was different to the preceding films of the series. It was a disappointment to many, but is in my opinion better than You Only Live Twice for example and certainly one of the most underrated. Sean Connery chose not to appear in this film …

13 Conversations About One Thing (R, 2002) movie

The Little Mermaid

This Christmas movie
I really wish African American films would get better than this. This film was such a rip-off of “Soul Food” that it is not even funny. The sisters fighting the youngest one dating an “intelligent thug”, legal troubles, selling Big Mama/Ma’Dere’s property the list just …

A Christmas Carol
One of the first movies I ended up watching on Christmas Eve was George C. Scott’s version of Ebeneezer Scrooge in the 80s remake of A Christmas Carol. And, in my opinion, this remains one of the better tellings of the classic story.
Scott is perfect as Scrooge. He’s the …
