Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Film (2009)
I grew up reading Harry Potter books in my formative years back in the 90’s. The time when the whole Harry Potter franchise was less frenzied and the books were just lurking somewhere to be discovered. My devotion to the books reached a fanatical stage that I …
Fantastic Four (Movie 2005)
What a complete croc…in other words, it’s utter CRAP!!! Characters were under-developed and unconvincing, storyline was dumn and hard to follow, CGI was poorly done and, oh yeah, it’s CRAP (did I say that already?). It makes no sense wasting words to describe how terrible this movie is, so, …
Run Lola Run - Movie (Watch Lola Watch)
The first time I picked this up, it was displayed on the bottom shelve in the library. I remember that it stared that chick from “The Bourne Identity” (Franka Potente).
I decided to watch the trailer and had no idea what the plot was about, other than the fact it’s …
Blast from the Past
Today was the first time in a couple of years that I’ve seen the movie Blast from the Past. And, you know what, it still is kind of a cute film.

Movie: Christmas with the Kranks
When I first saw the movie Christmas with the Kranks, I didn’t think it would be a film I would enjoy. I have seen plenty of Tim Allen movies and have liked maybe only one or two; and I don’t go out of my way to watch those on …

The Grudge 2
The Grudge is back. And for a while, after being thrilled by the first movie, I was looking forward to this one. But then, because of the trailer for the sequel seemed to give many scares away, I also feared that it would take the thrill out of …
Movie Georgia Rule
“Georgia Rule” is the film where we get to see the actress, Lindsey Lohan interpret the role of a bad girl with the name of Rachel Wilcox. With the reputation that Lohan has gained lately I don’t think she had a particular difficulty to fit in her role.
“Georgia Rule” deals …
Darkness (horror movie)
I thought that I’d watched all the movies with Anna Paquin in it until I saw another one recently on cable television. It was a horror movie named “Darkness”, which I noticed didn’t have a very good rating on neither the cable television guide nor IMDB. Nevertheless, sometimes I …
American Beauty (drama movie)
I was reading a book about writing screenplays and at one point it referred to the movie “American Beauty” as an example of a good fairly modern screenplay. However when I watched it for myself, I realised that it wasn’t just the screenplay that was good, but the entire movie.
The …
Frankenfish (2004) movie
This is another fun horror movie about some mutant fish that invade the Louisiana Bayou. The movie stars Mark Dippe and Tory Kittles. I admit I was unsure what to expect when I first picked it up, mainly due to the movie’s name. But the movie was surprisingly good! …

Killer Klowns from Outer Space movie
The horror…the utter horror.
Not!!
This is a classic case of a mind at waste. How could they even consider making this movie and worse expect viewers to want to watch it. Well. as dumb as it is, I stood the torture and i watched it; and horrified I was. You …
Harold & Kumar Escape Guantanamo Bay
Normally, whenever a movie is a surprise hit, someone can’t wait to make a sequel to it and, more often than not, that sequel doesn’t even come close to the original.
This was the case of Harold & Kumar Escape Guantanamo Bay.
The first movie, Harold & Kumar Go to Whitecastle …
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 …
I Can Do Bad All By Myself (PG13, 2009)
I have watched a few Tyler Perry films and decided to give “I Can Do Bad All By Myself” a chance. I really like Taraji Henson as an actress, and have always been a fan of hunky Adam Rodriguez. The story is centered on a group of …
Burn Before Reading movie
Like many others I was looking forward to watch the movie ‘Burn After Reading’. This is a comedy where George Clooney and Brad Pitt join forces with the Coen brothers as directors of this movie. Apart from the fact that I much prefer Clooney and Pitt in much …
The LEGO Movie (2014)
When my kids first heard about the LEGO Movie it was all they would talk about for weeks. I have to admit that even though I tried to act cool about it, I was pretty excited too. This movie had an all-star cast with everyone from Morgan Freeman to …
The Fourth Kind 2009 movie
I just finished watching “The Fourth Kind” and can’t stop laughing. This was a pathetic attempt at a movie. The premise is similar to the Blair Witch film in that it is presented as a “mockumentary” complete with fake “archive footage and audio.” This is one of those movies …
Red Tails (movie)
I got the movie “Red Tails” thinking that it was something else that I would be watching. The movie that I had intended on watching had a slightly similar plot and characters. Nevertheless, I watched this one and it turns out that I liked it a little better even …

Flushed Away Movie
We went to see the movie Flushed Away this past weekend. There were two adults and a 12 year old boy. I went in with the intention of seeing a comedy, not knowing it was more of an adventure movie. It was a nice family film with a few …
Somewhere in Time movie
Somewhere in Time is a magical, awesome movie about pure love, faith, and the desire to overcome insurmountable obstacles, including time itself.
Richard Collier is a young playwright just starting out with his first success when an old woman approaches him and begs him to “Come back to me.” …
High Fidelity
“High Fidelity” is definitely the most renowed John Cusack’s movie. I must admit that he did a great job in this movie for which he was nominated for the Golden Globe. In an interview, Cusack admitted that this movie is also one of his favourites too.
What makes “High Fidelity” …
In Pursuit of Happyness
A must see, feelgood film.
This film shows that perserverence can overcome everything.
Believe in yourself even when others dont and there is no limit to what you can achieve.
Will Smith plays an exellent role in this film.
He loses everything - his wife, his home and his self esteem. yet he …
The Mask
One of my favourite movies from the mid nineties is a movie called “The Mask” starring the actors Jim Carey and Cameron Diaz. I still think that it was one of Jim Carey’s best movies and it was the best I had seen actress Cameron Diaz look in a …
American Pie 2 movie
I got bored Friday night and ended up watching American Pie 2 on one of our movie channels. I haven’t seen the movie in a while and couldn’t remember much of it. It turns out there’s a reason why it wasn’t that memorable.
The first American Pie movie is a …
Final Destination 3-D movie
Final Destination 3 in super 3-D is exactly what you would expect from such a teen horror outing. The plot is incomprehensible, the acting wooden, and the entire premise implausible, yet it still delivers the goods as far as presenting an entertaining horror excursion. The audience that I viewed …
Shinobi
This movie, titled Shinobi, is about 1 hr and 56 minutes and I cried while watching. It tells a story of love, action and adventure, and there is also some violent images, so the rating R is there.
I am not sure why movies about war and romance always …
VooDoo (Horror Movie)
If you ask me about my opinion of this movie. It is —“ “I just wasted 1 hour plus of my life! *Censored*! *Censored*! *Censored*!”
In fact, I did thought of naming this review “VooDoo - a movie to waste 1 hour plus of you life away”. But I guess, …
Ready to Rumble (2000)
If you like pro wrestling in any way, shape or form, and this movie is just for you, yup, it is right up your alley and it will or will not prove to be a good thing. As this movie would have it, two sewage workers are extremely upset …

Cars Disney
It is about Cars movie, the one from Disney Pixar. In the beginning,I thought it was just another kind of racing car cartoon for the children. Normally the story will be standard. But I was wrong. When my son watched it for the first time, I did not put …
Babel, Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu Movie

To the Bone, original Netflix movie
I love the movies that give you something to think about. Sometimes I watch the movies that might disgust me or make me cry, but those movies cause more emotions than any horror movie, watched alone in the darkness. “To the bone” is one of those movies that give you …
National Lampoon’s The Stoned Age
We randomly picked a movie to watch on our netflix player last night and ended up with National Lampoon’s The Stoned Age. When we started watching it, I figured it would be like that old movie Caveman, which was funny but pretty lame. It turns out Caveman was a …
Jeepers Creepers 2, horror film
This one really delivered, I thought. The first Creeper movie was great, but any fans might remember the Creeper had wings and in the first one we never saw him fly. Set the stage for this second helping of mayhem. Most of the horror takes place on a …
Singing Babies - Nursery Rhyme Time DVD
We received this dvd for our 10.5 month old son as a christmas present. When we put it in the dvd player and watched it with our son, my husband turns to me and the first thing that he says to me is, “this is the most rediculous baby …
The Prestige (PG-13, 2006) movie
This was an interesting movie. Not quite what I expected. But since I love Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman–so that in and of itself warranted a viewing. However, this is a story that is relayed with care and precision. But I will admit that certain …
Batman Begins (Movie)
Everyone I knew told me to go see Batman Begins because they thought I would love it. I’m a fan of comic books, and I own nearly every comic book themed movie in the world. Still I could tell from the previews that it was a movie I just …
Insidious: Chapter 3 (supernatural horror movie)
Insidious: Chapter 3 wasn’t on my list of horror movies to watch because I didn’t get the impression that it would be very good especially after watching the trailer. As usual, someone I knew recommended it to me anyway and I decided to try it. It turns out that I …
Stormbreaker the Movie
Alright, I heard from my friend that this wasn’t really that good of a movie. I’ve read the book and was amazed by Horrowitz talents at writing, so I decided to watch the movie, and the first thing I thought was “Woah, my friend is a big …
Batman The Dark Knight Rises 2012 Movie
Dark Knight Rises. When you think about it, it certainly sounds like a Batman movie. I mean, Batman is always needing to rise above or overcome something. His world is always filled with darkness and overcoming the evils of Gotham City. But in this movie, I think there were …
