This latest superhero movie from Jon Favreau, the director of “Elf” and “Zathura”, starring Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeff Bridges and Terrence Howard, surpasses many others in the same genre, with a sly adult take on an otherwise rather two dimensional character. The special effects, while impressive …

This is definitely my favorite Stanley Donen film. I watched this movie last New Year’s Eve, and though, I was willing to let go of those bygone memories, I never could forget “Two for the Road.” Because I love Audrey Hepburn, there’s no other particular reason that …

Man On The Moon with Jim Carrey, Danny DeVito, Courtney Love, and Paul Giamatti.
Though hard to tell by the title, this poorly presented movie was a biography of the comedian Andy Kaufman and his alter ego Tony Clifton. It is a shame that such a …

This is a good adaptation of the classic novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, far better than the 1995 version that for some reason turns the main character into a blonde and changes the ending. (Moviemakers, do us all a favor: if you want to change stuff, write your own …

I love Paul Walker very much. And in this movie, The Death And Life Of Bobby Z that he acted which I’ve watched like 2 times, the storyline ain’t that bad.
At first, I was quite skeptical into thinking that it is a rather cheesy gangster movie but …

From 1990, The Long Walk Home is an amazing thought-provoking film that centers around the famous bus boycott that occurred in Montgomery, Alabama back in 1955. It’s all about segregation and equality. We’ve come a long way, as this movie depicts, and yet there is still so …

Science Fiction comedy about a man played by Rutger Hauer who goes to look for a hideous monster in London and kill it.
Rutger Hauer is one of the absolutely coolest actors ever in my opinion, but this film is really way to thin and unlogical to convince me. Hauer …

Unless you are a high school/college student or an intensely teen-hearted adult, this movie has nothing to offer you. It is nothing but two hours of dialogue about drugs, alcohol, and degrading comments about women; step foot onto any college campus in the nation, and you will be able …

Within the last few years the genre of “Horror” for me seems to repeat the same mundane patterns of predictability and flatness. However, “It follows” is a gripping and tense horror flick that will leave you shaken, yet wanting more.

With barely anytime to get comfy, director (David Robert Mitchell) has …

First of all, the film is not dragging so it is a plus point for …

Happy Feet is a 3D animation movie. I can say it’s a musical movie. Lots of songs in there. If you like musicals, watch it. If you don’t, you could try but I’m not sure if you’re gonna like it.

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 …

With so many movie trailers exploiting all their best parts, it’s rare that a movie is better than I expected from the trailer; this is the case with Contraband. I expected a fast-paced, “Gone in 60 Seconds”-style movie, and while it delivers that, it delivers a lot more.
There are …

After watching Lars and the Real Girl I am proven once more that you cannot judge a movie by its plot description. When I read that the movie is about a lonely man who develops a deep and romantic relationship with a doll he orders only, my reaction …
