Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World 2010
This is one of those movies that looked really bad in the previews and yet I still went to see it. I am not quite sure why I went to see it but I can say that it was as bad as the previews looked. This movie is about …
Three Wishes movie
In 1995, director Martha Coolidge gave us a really wonderful and magical motion pictured called Three Wishes. It captures our imaginations and takes our hearts on a wondrous adventure. Just like the tagline says, if you really believe, magic will find you, and it does, here in …
Terror Train movie
I had heard of the movie Terror Train before but didn’t think it was anything worth watching. After all, I am not a huge Jamie Lee Curtis fan, did not like the original Halloween movie and I knew this movie was produced as a result of the success of …
Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid
“Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid” is absolutely one of most clever and hilarious movies I have ever watched. It Stars Steve Martin as private detective Rigby Reardon, hired by Juliet Forrest (Rachel Ward), the daughter of a cheesemaker , believed killed in an automobile crash. It’s clear right …
Diamonds are forever movie

Dallas Season 9 DVD
A lot of people knock this particular season of DALLAS but it really isn’t all that bad. Actually, the only knock it because of what happens in season 10. Ok, let’s explain what this is all about: in the previous season, Patrick Duffy left Dallas to seek other pursuits. He …
The Bank Job (2008 version)
Finally I got to watch the recent movie, “The Bank Job”. I must warn you be prepared to watch a great drama movie. This movie has got nothing to do with “The Bank Job” released last year and directed by Estonian director, Brad Jurjens. This movie is simply great.
I …
Hoodwinked Anne Hathaway & Glenn Close
Who ever thought the story of “Little Red Riding Hood” could ever be so complexed. This movie was so intensely funny. Just when you thought you had it figured it out, it took another turn. I enjoyed it so much and laughed constantly. I like a complex story. I …
Blockbuster Online
As far as advertisements go, I am perhaps the most skeptical. You would not believe my surprise at Blockbusters attempt at online rentals.
I actually love it.
I was already a longtime member of the video store chain. I tried the online rentals because it was a good way …
Mad Max: Fury Road (post appocalyptic action movie)
Even though I never really took the opportunity to really sit and watch the previous installments in the Mad Max franchise, I has always felt like the movies might have been something I would find very interesting. Therefore my anticipation of the fourth installment, “Mad Max: Fury Road” grew out …
The Rugrats Movie
I’ve said this once before, but any movie that will keep my 3-year-old daughter occupied for 90 minutes is one that will always receive high praise from me.
The Rugrats movie is one of those films.
I bought her the movie about a week ago as a bribe. She had spent …
Tom and Jerry Cartoons
I remember watching these two cartoon characters chase each other when I was a kid and now, years later, I find myself watching them again. Actually, I’m not the one watching it. My boy who is only 4 years old watches it all the time and there’s nothing any …

Bed of Roses
The movie “Bed of Roses” represents an attempt from Christian Slater to make another movie similar to “Untamed Heart”. This movie came at a time where Slater wanted to move on with his acting career and leave his past bad boy image behind him. Through this movie Slater failed …
Tripping the Rift Season 1 DVD
Tripping the Rift is an unusual show. It has a fairly solid basis as a science fiction spoof: sure it has been done before but there is so much material to be found that there is still much to be done and new fodder is always being developed …
Oceans-movie (2010)
Last night, my best friend and I went to see the movie Oceans and I have to say that it was pretty good! I would totally recommend going to see it, especially if you like not only Hollywood, but also documentary type of movies. You will enjoy learning about …
Rose Red, movie directed by Stephen King
I have always been a fan of supernatural movies so when I came across Rose Red by Stephen King I had high hopes. The movie (made from the miniseries) was not as great as I expected but still became one of my favorites.
The plot tells of a teacher …

License to Wed
License to Wed is a not so good romantic comedy movie. The movie has Robbie Williams, Mandy Moore, and John Krasinski playing the pivotal roles. The movie has a very artificial plot and it is not convincing at any point. Though the main point of the plot is silly …
Movie Heavy
Heavy with Liv Tyler, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Debbie Harry, and Shelly Winters.
I must admit that I only watched this movie because it featured the beautiful, alluring Liv Tyler. Then I continued to watch it because I could not figure what it was about. It …
Ninja Scroll (Movie 1993)
If you are a fan of Japanese Animation, you will find alot of entertainment with watching this film. Impossible characters with inhuman strengths and powers are the ingredients that make this movie a delicious adventure. A ninja for hire is tricked by an old man into fighting lest he …
X-Men (Movie)
As a fan of the comics and early morning animated show, I always felt this movie was a long time coming. Thankfully, someone finally saw fit to bring Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops and the rest to the big screen and under the direction of Bryan Singer; the X-Men were finally …

Forrest Gump (1994 film)
The greatest movies are perhaps the different ones and Forrest Gump with its unique nature of storytelling, the absolutely original character and the randomness of its narrative definitely stroke me as such.
Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) has a coefficient of intelligence below the low border and a …
Signs Movie
Signs starring (Mel Gibson) is an interesting tale of a small mid-american town trying to come to terms with a real alien invasion. After Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) discovers a crop circle in his field stranger tales of extraterrestrials quickly begin to circulate around town. Even stranger when …

Nora Ephron’s “Julie and Julia” 2009 film
I’m not exactly a big cinematic buff, and tend to prefer reading to watching films. However, Nora Ephron’s much hailed Julie and Julia tempted me with excellent cast, and when a couple of my friends recommended the film to me, I was really hoping to catch it in the …
Inception Movie (2010)
This movie just showed out today and I couldn’t resist not watching it since it had garnered so much hype and attention from press and interviews on HBO while it has not yet been released, when I saw the trailer I thought it was really weird but when I …
LOTR Trilogy
The Lord of The Rings trilogy was probably the greatest story ever told that managed to reach the grand stage of the movie theater. I just love the way this movie was put together, from the scenery all the way to how perfectly the roles were assigned to just …
Inception (2010 film)
In the 2010s a new director is threatening to steal the whole Hollywood show for himself-this director is quickly getting close to the very top of my list and his name is Cristopher Nolan-a film-maker whose every new film is better than the last one. His last one is …
Johnny English
This movie, like anything with Rowan Atkinson in it, is very funny. It doesn’t quite have the flow to it that many of the Mr. Bean sketches have, but it’s still very fun to watch.
It seems similar to the Pink Panther, yet of course different. In this movie, Johnny …
The Bonfire Of The Vanities Movie
After reading the book The Bonfire Of The Vanities by Tom Wolfe, I was eager to see the film adaptation. However after watching it I wish I never bothered. The book describes the racial tension of New York in the 1980s and …
Cruel Intentions
The movie “Cruel Intentions” was very much well received because it represent a new way of making movies addressed to the young generation. It includes a great cast of young rising stars involved in a movie which has the right mix between drama and romance.
On a more personal level, …
Premonition
Premonition is one of those strange movies that nearly everyone hated, yet I really liked. I wouldn’t say that it’s one of my favorite movies, but I liked it enough to buy it. Unlike other movies where you have a hard time believing that the two leads are interested …
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 …

Letters to Juliet movie
Letters to Juliet, a 2010 movie release, was surprisingly enchanting and entertaining. I really enjoyed it. There were moments where it slowed down a bit too much for me, and in reality, I think it could have been about ten to fifteen minutes shorter and been a …
The Bucket List
Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman are spectacular in this movie about two dying men who go on an adventure to fulfill their life-long ambitions. The previews for this movie were a bit misleading. I though that this would be full of laughs, but the serious aspects were a …

Movie 50 First Dates
I decided to buy the movie “50 First Dates”, after watching the trailer and seemed to be interesting; however in the end I was very disappointed due to the fact that this movie must represent the worst interpretation from actors, Adam Sandlers and Drew Barrymore.
“50 First Dates” includes some …
Falling Down (1993) Movie
I tend to always watch Falling Down when it comes on television. I can always relate to film and literature that is misanthropic in its sentiment and, as movies go, this is better than most rubbish out there.
Michael Douglas plays William Forster who has apparently cracked …
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 …
The Three Stooges, movie (2012)
In my younger years, I watched the classic shorts of The Three Stooges like it was a religion. Every Saturday, I would be up to watch them. It was common for my father and I to attending local screenings of their shorts. As I grew up, …
The Insanity (2016 Chinese Comedy)
The Insanity is a 2016 Chinese black-comedy film directed by Rao Xiaozhi, starring Wan Qian, Zhou Yiwei and Wang Zijian.
