Movies Reviews
ConAir (1997)
This movie, though with some violent scenes, for me, is one of my ‘feel good movies’ I can brag about having seen. The good guys in this movie, Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) and US Marshall Vince Larkin (John Cusack) did a very good job. I am also very …
Hellboy: Sword of Storms
I am not the biggest Hellboy fan around. Never read the comic books. Watched part of the live action movie starring Ron Pearlman, but didn’t find myself particularly enraptured by it. So I decided to give his first animated feature, Hellboy: Sword of Storms (also starring …
“All the King’s Men” The other one (1999)
This “All the King’s Men” is not the one based on Robert Penn Warren’s Pulitzer winning novel. It is not a novel about politics in Louisiana. It is a movie about, well, all the king’s men. In this version there really is a king, King George V and the …
Duma movie
Few movies that are noncartoon can entertain my two three years old. However, last night HBO was playing their new hit, Duma. From what I have come to understand, this is one of Walt Disney’s new classic movies about the life of a leopard and his relationship …
Movie Happy Feet
This is one of the best cartoons I’ve seen so far. The trailer didn’t look so promising so I never watched this in the theaters. I seldom want to pay for cartoons anyway. Luckily, one of my relatives bought me a DVD version which they said was on sale. …
Ghost Rider (2007)
Hollywood production of the legendary comic book fiery skulled, chain wielding, soul stealing, flame wheeled bike riding, bringer of death. The movie remake of the comic once again as Hollywood always does is true injustice. The never, ever capture the real identity of the comic book character to portray …
White Noise 2 (PG-13, 2007) movie
First of all, let me say that White Noise, the first one—was total garbage. I really tried to get into it. But when the first images /sounds were displayed, I knew the film was going to be corny. They cast Michael Keaton in the lead. …
Blue Jasmine (2013 Comedy-Drama Film)
2013 was the year I was really introduced to “film and cinema”. It was the year when I had a very unforgettable experience with Alfonso Cuaron’s “Gravity”, which made me root for it in the following Oscars. It was the year when I started paying attention to the Academy Awards …
Fools Rush In
“Fools Rush In” represents the big leaps from the small screen to the big screen for Matthew Perry. I feel that his interpretation of his part in this movie helped him get more important parts such as “The Whole Nine Yards” role. Perry was so excited by it all, …
Zoom
When the movie Zoom came out, it had two strikes against it in my opinion. First, it was about a bunch of kids with super powers; something that has been done way too many times in my opinion. Secondly, it starred Tim Allen. I like his stand up comedy. …

The Notebook movie
The Notebook movie is real horrible and I never could quite get why people liked it so much. The book was ok but the movie was horrid. First off the actress they got to play the main role was awesome and she played the character well but the main …
The Town Movie (2010)
There were a lot of action flicks at the theatre and they featured this one; we were late for Bruce Willis’ movie Red so we watched this one instead but I was so surprised to find myself enjoying this. It’s a simple action movie which features Ben Affleck, …

The Time Traveler’s Wife movie
This movie stars Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams. This movie came out in 2009. I watched this on an airplane and I must say I wasn’t able to enjoy it as much as I wanted to due to constant interruption from passengers and flight crew. However, the movie was …
The Dark Knight
I absolutely enjoyed The Dark Knight. I went to the movie thinking that this was just going to be another action packed movie that was ripped from the pages of a comic book, but boy was I wrong. I like the character change they made for Alfred because he …
Flight Movie
I already knew that Denzel Washington was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for this film before I watched it. Thus, I was expecting this film to be somehow good. I thought it was some aviation disaster film or a terrorist-inspired aviation film. However, the movie was …
HOUSE OF WAX REMAKE movie
Umm. Yuck.
I was lucky enough to see the 1981 rerelease of Vincent Price’s original House of Wax in 3-D in theaters and it was a visual treat.
And Price make an incredibly menacing villian. In this tedious, overlong box office dud, we get quite the incredibly
unerotic Paris Hilton deliver the …
2 Guns movie
I was just browsing through the On Demand Section provided from my TV Provider, I came across the title “2 Guns” My first thought was it wasn’t going to be a very good movie, but hey never judge something by it’s cover right? So I read the description of …
All About Eve film
Bette Davis, as she became more mature possessed knowing character traits with a rustic edge incorporated. She was really never the innocent young girl type. I would say she fit more the role of a person who knew how to survive life. She was always the …
Evan Almighty
It really is a good movie. For anyone out there that has had a tough week and wants to relax and just laugh; this movie is for you. It’s fun and yeah it doesn’t make you think too hard, but has plenty of little jokes for those who pay …
The Purge, 2013 Movie
For one night a year, all crime is legal. It’s a very compelling idea for a movie, right? If the film is well executed then yes, but in the case of The Purge, it’s really nothing more than an average movie.
The Purge was one of the first movies in …
Tammy and the Millionaire
Interestingly, after the TV series failed with just one season, Tammy and the Millionaire was released in 1967 with pretty much the same cast as the TV series. Debbie Watson, Denver Pyle, and Frank McGrath are all back, as are the actors who portrayed the Brents and the …
Turkish Star Wars
This movie is seriously an abomination on film. A lot of bad movies fall into two categories.
The first category is “so bad it’s awesome” these are movies that you know stink to high heaven, but you can laugh at the badness. A lot of the movies …
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 …
“Scoop” movie
Woody Allen’s next film is, for many fans of the tenth muse obligatory visit to the cinema. While his films may not be such a phenomenon as new works by Milos Forman and Roman Polanski, but with each of them get exactly what the New York director accustomed us …

Wall-E
I took my family to see Wall-E. We all loved it the robots are so likable and cute. My 5 year old daughter squeals every time she hears the name Wall-E. I had to laugh when I saw the predicted future and I really think it will be like …
That Thing You Do movie

Man On Fire
Man On Fire stars Denzel Washington, Christopher Walken, and Dakota Fanning. This is an exceptional film that dealt with the serious issue of the kidnapping business in Mexico, yet did so in a very warm manner.
How do you make a great film about any subject? …
The Running Man (1987 film)
I forgot how cheestastic this movie was. It’s an 80’s Schwarzeneggar film, so it’s not all that surprising, but it’s been awhile since I’ve seen it.
Ahnuld plays Ben Richards, a soldier who is framed for mass murder after defying orders to fire on innocent civilians. He’s forced …
Jennifer’s Body movie
Well, we finally rented the movie Jennifer’s Body last night. As expected, the film was an OK movie and we got reminded of just how sexy Megan Fox really is. But, I have to say the movie also proved to be a bit of a disappointment.
The plot involving Fox …
Day of the Dead movie
Perhaps not as seminal as Night of the Living Dead, and certainly not as loved as Dawn of the Dead; Day of the Dead often seems the forgotten third child in Romero’s zombie saga. But, whilst it may lack the crude and creepy charm of Night, and the raging …
10,000 B.C. (Movie)
My friend really pushed me into watching this movie that honestly I really dreaded to watch. I really felt that it is simply a waste of time to be watching “cavemen” fighting one another and I was really keen on watching some kind of a romantic comedy or some …

How can a movie with Burton and Eastwood fail? It can’t. This duo of superstars team up to present a suspense filled film in the WWII genre. Burton is an undercover MI6 agent …

Synopsis: A teenager from New Jersey gets trained in karate after moving to California and being bullied.

The Last Starfighter movie
The Last Starfighter is a neat little science fiction story that is interesting and entertaining to watch. Robert Preston really excelled as his mysterious and colorful character of Centauri. I think I like his portrayal the best. He’s funny, and he keeps you guessing.
Lance Guest played …
DVD UFC II
Royce returns in UFC II to win his second tournament and, although some of the matches are quite good such as Royce vs Pat Smith, this event will be forever known for an overmatched Fred Ettish getting a horrible, one sided beating at the hands of Johnny Rhodes.
Actually, there …
