Interview with the vampire
I loved this film, it’s one of my all time favourites.

The Great Global Warming Swindle was the right’s answer to Al Gore’s famous and popular documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth.” It goes against the grain of current thought on the warming of the earth and attacks some of the incorrect facts stated in Mr. Gore’s documentary.
Unlike Mr. Gore’s film, …

Due Date: Movie
Due Date is a comedy film that I really enjoyed, despite going into it with a slight bit of pessimism due to previous reviews I’d heard.

The Courage To Love movie (2000)
I once watched the movie Courage To Love, a few years ago when flipping through the channels on TV, one Sunday evening. At the time I wasn’t really paying attention to it. Usually I don’t care for TV movies so I wasn’t all that interested. I didn’t even know …

Blood Diamond movie
You know, even though I take an interest in world politics, I have found I’m not a huge fan of movies about obscure problems in other countries.

The plot wasn’t …
The Mark of Zorro (1940)
Filmgoers today associate “Zorro” with Antonio Banderas but, as wonderful as Banderas is in the title role of the more updated version of this film, he can’t hold a candle to the original “Mark of Zorro” star Tyrone Power, who is just magnificent in this movie.
Power was at the …

Notes on a Scandal
I didn’t quite know what to expect with this one. Cate Blanchett is one of my favorite actresses, capable of assuming all sorts of roles. Her role as a pedophile (essentially), teacher having an affair with one of her students was rather shocking. But …
