Knock Knock Movie
If you’re thinking of a way to waste an hour and a half of your life, give the movie Knock Knock a try. This movie is a complete waste of time and I don’t know how I ever sat through the whole movie. If you’ve read any of my …
White House Down (2013 Film)
White House Down is a 2013 movie that I decided to watch after my sister recommended it to me. I remember seeing the film previews during the evening time on TV, but in the back of my mind I was thinking that it just another president doom’s day movie …
The Illusionist
“The Illusionist” and “The Prestige” had hit movie theaters with only about a month’s difference; they both tell a story of 19 century stage magicians in Europe. I don’t know whose idea it was to release two movies on the same subject at the same time and whether they …
Just Like Heaven movie
I watch Just like Heaven when I was flipping through channels and saw Resse Witherspoon, whose movies I love, mainly her chick flicks. I thought Just like heaven’s story line was unconventional and yet hard to believe although a bit eager to want to have. I did however end …
Premium Rush movie
“Premium Rush” is about bicycle messengers working in Manhattan. The messengers seem to have an embedded code of the area: They are seen rushing past stoplights; riding against the heavy New York traffic; hurling themselves and their transport over all types of barriers and seemingly not knowing …
Failure to Launch movie
When I saw previews of this movie, I thought it would be hillarious. However, when I finally got a chance to watch it, I can understand why the critics hated it.
Overall, it was an OK movie but it wasn’t as funny as it could have been. The plot was …
The Hanged Man movie
Steve Forrest wasn’t a favorite actor of mine, but he did do several movies and TV shows that I liked, which balanced all the performances I didn’t like of his. This movie, The Hanged Man from 1974, is somewhat in the middle.
If you didn’t know it, the film …
Murder on the Orient Express movie
I’ve never seen Murder on the Orient Express before, though I’ve often heard about it and have seen many commercials promoting various incarnations of it over the years. I’ve been curious about the Agatha Christie story for a long time, but for whatever reason never actually sat down …
Goodrich Canton Cinemas
I have never gotten good customer service at this Canton movie theater. On my birthday, I was directed toward the wrong theater and I ended up missing the movie I wanted to see. A couple ahead of us in line ordered tickets to a movie called “The American”, which …
Monsters versus Aliens
We got a chance to watch the movie Monsters versus Aliens this past weekend. When we did, I figured it would be something our daughter would like but I didn’t expect my wife and I to be entertained too.
There is a great cast of voices ranging from Reese Witherspoon …

Synopsis: This 4th installment of the Scary Movie franchise spoofs the movie War of the Worlds with a group of people looking to escape from an alien invasion. Along they way, the movie also manages to spoof everything from Saw to Brokeback Mountain.
What I liked about this movie: I’m …
Perkins14 movie
Although I’ve read a lot of good reviews about this movie, I wouldn’t even rate it as average. Instead, I would give it a rating of below average because even though the movie itself wasn’t completely atrocious, I still think that it was somewhat disappointing. This was because I …
You, Me and Dupree (2006)
You, Me and Dupree (2006) is a comedy from directors Anthony and Joe Russo and is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for sexual content, brief nudity, crude humor, language and a drug reference.
In You, Me and Dupree, Carl (Matt Dillon) and Molly (Kate Hudson)have found the one unfortunate hitch …
The Time Guardian Movie
Yet another “in the future the machines will take over the world and destroy all humans” kind of film, this time about a city trying to transport themselves with a time machine but fails. They then face the gruesome cyborgs (part machines, part human) who threaten to kill them …
The Pacifier
The Pacifier is a pretty funny movie. I thought it was funny seeing Vin Diesel star in a funny movie. We are so used to seeing him in action and violent movies. This was a nice anf funny change for Vin Diesel. I think that the film was OK, it …

Dark City, movie (1998)
David S. Goyer is a name films fans should recognize. From his humble beginnings with Charles Band’s Full Moon Entertainment to his recent success working with Christopher Nolan, he’s one of the biggest names in screenwriting. Sure, he also wrote Jumper and the TV movie, Nick Fury: …
Movie Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2
I was lucky enough to attend the special premiere for this movie. Not only did I get freebies, I also didn’t have to pay for the movie itself. I’ve read the books and seen the first movie, which was great. So I don’t know why the second movie was …
Cheaper by the dozen 1 Movie
Cheaper By The Dozen 1 (the first movie) is a great story. It’s about a family called the Bakers who have twelve children. Tom Baker played by Steve Martin is classic in his part. He stays true to the comical type of actor that he is. Tom’s wife played …
Chicken Run cartoon
Chicken run is an animated cartoon movie about a group of chickens who try to escape from a chicken farm. I thought this movie was actually pretty good. I thought I wouldn’t like it as it was an animated cartoon but once I watch it I realized it was …
Movie Watchmen
Yesterday I watched this movie. First, Iwanna watch this movie because I think it’s kind of great action about superheroes who fight for peace and it will be more and more action like kind of the other superheroes movie. But after I watched it, the movie is dominantly by …
Super Mario World - The Wheel Thing
Super Mario World - “The Wheel Thing” is an episode that surpasses the premier episode in action, comedy, animation and music. This one of my favorite episodes of the cartoon series for a couple of reasons. For one, King Koopa and one of his sons, Kooky, actually present themselves …
The Queen by Stephen Frears
I was very lucky today to see a matinee of “The Queen” staring Helen Mirren. Although I knew the movie was about Queen Elizabeth II, I had no idea it was about the period following Princess Diana’s death.
I found the movie was not only engaging but engrossing. It was …
Tyler Perry’s ‘The Family That Preys’ (movie)
I really didn’t know what to expect from this film when I first heard the name of it. Tyler Perry is best known for his comedies such as ‘Diary of a Mad Black Woman’ and ‘Meet the Browns’. I was really surprised today when I watched his 2008 film …
Pitch Perfect (movie)
One of the movies that I was privileged to watch as of recently was an unexpected gem called Pitch Perfect. I call this unexpected because when I first saw the trailer for this movie, I was much less than interested in seeing it. I was never much of a …
10 Cloverfield Lane (2016 Film)
2016 has been a dull year for me in movies so far. I have been to cinema for most time once an anticipated movie gets shown, but there are certain movies that I have missed in favor of the other. For example, I watched The Jungle Book instead of 10 …
Whatever It Takes - (starring Shane West)
Whatever It Takes is a movie story about love and feelings involved and finding the right one for you in the end. Acted by the cast of Shane West, David Raynr and 2 beauties, this movie story gets to me. I find it super amazing and the fact …
‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ movie
Star Wars movies that take place before “A New Hope” don’t have the best track record. When Disney acquired the rights to the franchise, however, they decided to take another crack at it.
Was this a way to milk the cash cow beyond just doing another trilogy? Yeah, …
John Tucker Must Die
“John Tucker Must Die” is a cute romantic comedy targeting teenagers. The interesting aspect of this movie is that it includes a lot of Hollywood rising stars such as Brittany Snow, Jesse Metcalfe, Penn Badgley, Sophia Bush, Ashanti and Arielle Kebbel. These actors are mostly know for their involvement …
Vennela a telugu movie
Casting:
Raja
Parvathi melton
Sarvanand
ravi varma
brahmanandam
The movie ” Vennela” is an above average movie with good music and hilarious comedy. This is also a usual love story but with different twist. There are two important themes in this movie. One is : “Never live in bad compnay. This may ruin you precious life”. …
Snakes on a Plane (movie)
I love creature movies, those scary movies where some giant animal or a bunch of tiny ones run rampant and gobble up a bunch of people. They often are free of blood and gore (something too common these days in other types of horror movies) and are just scary …
50 First Dates
50 First Dates stars Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.
This classic love story takes place in beautiful Oahu, Hawaii, and aside from this location, it was clearly a clone of the Wedding Singer that also starred these two actors. Aside from this fact, I loved the …
Stargate
Since the dawn of movie making, there have always been a few actors that take weird, off the wall, ecentric roles instead of traditional leading men or leading lady roles. Such is true with current Boston Legal actor, James Spader. He appeared in a great 1994 film called Stargate …
Requiem (NR, 2006)
If you have seen The Exorcism of Emily Rose, then you are probably familiar with the story of Annelise Michel, a young German woman who died of exhaustion (and malnutrition) after having several exorcisms. The controversy surrounding her involved her medical diagnosis of epilepsy. She …
Alfie
Alfie was a movie I had seen being aired on various cable television channels for some time. However, I didn’t pay it much attention until about a year or two after I had first seen it as it appeared as if it would be boring to me since …
Battle Los Angeles: Movie
Battle Los Angeles is a decent film, not amazing, but certainly worth watching for anyone interested in the action genre.
Since I watched the disappointing “Monsters” a few months ago, BLA gave me hope for a good alien invasion picture. I was slightly disappointed I have to admit.
The story isn’t …
Scarface movie
When Tony comes to Miami, Florida, things are never the same. Tony is a Cuban refugee who tries to start life over in a new country. Al Pacino is brilliant in this role as Tony, who starts out with nothing and becomes a huge drug lord. Tony wants to …
Mystery Men
There are times when you can take a cast of Hollywood stars and make a great film. And, there are times when you can do that and have a flop. The movie Mystery Men falls somewhere in between those two things.
This film, which is about a bunch of wannabe …
Because I Said So
Because I Said So is a Romantic comedy where the mother tries to find her daughter a “mate” by putting up a personal ad on the internet. While it has it’s funny moments and of course all things work out in the end it is a slow movie. It …
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011 Movie)
Gary Oldman steals the show in this slow-moving but brilliant take on the spy movie genre. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is an intellectual film that will keep you guessing until the end.
I was wary of seeing this movie based on some of its reviews on RottenTomatoes, but after watching …
Stephen King’s Pet Semetary movie
One of my favorite movies of all time, Stephen King’s “Pet Semetary” is always worth a watch. It’s the story of a young Doctor who is moving his family to Maine to take up a new position. While working his first week on the job, he tries, unsuccessfully to …
Over Her Dead Body
I decided to watch “Over Her Dead Body” because I read about the movie story and thought it was an interesting one. After watching it, I ended up disappointed because the movie fails to win over the audience. The comic moments in this romantic comedy are simply half baked!
“Over …
The Gravedancers, movie
Another installment in the “8 Films to Die For” lineup, “The Gravedancers” is a film about three high school friends reunited by a funeral and facing off in a traditional haunted house fright fest. This is the type of film that reminds me of how a simple story, when …
Epic (movie)
One of the animated movies that I watched fairly recently was Epic. I must have seen the trailer advertise a million and one times and not show any interest in seeing it, before I finally yielded one day after one of my family members got the blu-ray version and …

A Beginners Guide to Endings movie
I am reviewing the 2010 movie, A Beginners Guide to Endings, starring well known actors Scott Caan and Paulo Costanza. The movie is a comedy/drama and shows how people react in tight spots. Everything starts with an old man commiting suicide. He is ashamed of what he has done …
The Pajama Game movie
Another really wonderful Doris Day movie is The Pajama Game. She plays Babe, and she’s a dynamic dame in the role, that’s for sure. She works in a factory that makes pajamas. The factory hires a new manager, played by John Raitt. Now there’s a …
Grease 2 movie
I like to watch “Grease 2″ I actually like this movie better than the original Grease.
This movie stars Michelle Pfieffer as Stephanie, who is the leader of the Pink Ladies and Maxwell Caulfield, who is the one trying to fit in to impress Stephanie.
In “Grease 2″ Didi Conn returns …
Peter Pan movie
The classic fairytale by Barry in a new version. The most famous films on the story would be Disney’s classic animation and Spielberg’s Hook. This new version follows the same path as those two films and doesn’t really break any new ground, not even visually. For those of us …
