Time and again Citizen Kane gets selected as “the best film ever made” on different listings. There is so much to say about the genius Orson Welles’ debut film, but I’ll restrict myself to the most important points and my own view. The film is a very complex story …

Some films even if they are not really masterpieces nor a revelation of filmmaking, are still so well made that you can’t actually see a single fault in it. Films like last year’s Brooklyn or this year’s Sing Street are examples of it. Nothing groundbreaking about those two films mentioned …

Harvey is a delightful motion picture from 1950 that stars James Stewart and Harvey, the invisible rabbit. It’s true. The rabbit gets excellent billing in the movie.

I love Ben Affleck and Kate Beckinsale. I usually do my best to see any movie in which they star because they are usually very good movies with superior acting. It is under this thought that I went to see Pearl Harbor. I thought that since it had …

I wasted 93 minutes of my life to watch this movie. I waited and waited for it to be funny still waiting!!! This was the most stupid movie I have ever seen. Everyone warned me not to see it but I did not listen to their advice. …

I was waiting for New Year’s Eve and to pass time I had a movie marathon all by myself. The last movie I watched was Camp Rock because I had no other choice. It’s an original Disney Channel movie starring Demi Lovato as a teenager who went to her …

If you’re looking for a “scary” film to bore someone to death with, The Cave is the film you should rent. Otherwise, stay clear of it.
The movie focuses on a group of divers who are seeking to explore an underwater cave and encounter some supernatural creatures along the way. …

As if Snakes were frightening enough. Now, there are sets of movies about giant snakes that have a hunger for human flesh. It’s bad enough that Jaws freaked people out about getting into the water. I, myself, am included in that …

This is a remake of the 1949 classic titled “The Heiress,” starring Olivia de Havilland. While the original is hard to beat, the remake is actually not too bad. Of course, there are some rather questionable additions and a definite feminist touch, but what else can you expect from …

Brainscan is an older horror movie but an very powerful one. I love Brainscan because it shows us the future we are loving now with 3D virtual reality video games that seem and feel so real to the player. I really liked the cool story about the evil haunted video …

After years of hearing just how bad “Shrek the Third” was I decided that it was time to try the movie myself. I can certainly see why so many people disliked it but it was nowhere near as bad as I had expected.
One of the major problems with this …

I have always admired propaganda films for the boldness of their script and their natural rebellious nature. Perhaps the most sucker punching film of the highest production values is Lord of War.
Yuri Orlov (Nicholas Cage) has a talent for smuggling weapons, a talent that …

What a dark and magical film this is. I had heard things about this movie. And as usual, I waited until the Oscar hype had died down before venturing out and renting it. I am certainly glad I did. This story, placed in 1944 revolves …

The Long Weekend is an underrated movie that not many people would know about. I’m not sure when the movie was set, but there are just lots of DVDs lying around my home, brought my siblings or my parents, rented, bought; you name it, there are just a whole …

The greatness of East European cinema I guess need no further introduction. The Shop on Main Street is in my own humble opinion the greatest of all masterpieces coming out that area, directed by rather unkown Hungarians Ján Kadár and Elmar Klos.
As with many powerful movies of the mid-twentieth …

When I rented Annapolis on DVD this weekend, I was expecting another great military movie. What I got was a good boxing movie with a little bit of military in the background.
Centering around the life of a U.S. Naval Academy recruit, Annapolis gave me an idea of what new …

Disney pretty much nailed it with this movie in every way possible. I can safely say it does not target a specific audience but rather promotes interest in all age ranges. It is rated PG and I can understand why by I urge you not to deter …

I saw Hitch weeks ago for the first time and I loved it! Will Smith, Kevin James and Eva Mendez were great together. It was a different role for Will Smith, but he pulled it off! I have rented that movie 2 more times since seeing it the first …

One of Alfred Hitchcock’s minor works tells a chilling story about murders, innocently accused men and all of the standard Hitchcock components. The difference between this and North by northwest for instance, is that Mr Hitchcock must have been very uninspired when he did this. Either that or that …

This movie, starring Jack Nicholson as an obsessive compulsive romance novelist who is a bit of a people hater and Helen Hunt as a struglling waitress with an ill son, is very cute.
That’s really the only way I can describe it. There is a cute dog, a gay artist …

Musing on another Godard film I watched last night, I still have these fresh thoughts stuck in my head. Watching Godard is never a bore. I recently read an article in the nytimes talking about Paris as a most favored site for shooting movies. This film was …

This strange passion - or “El”, as it is better known - is one my of favorite films by Luis Bunuel. It is about a middle aged man who suffers from paranoia. This disease (as I would call it) is masterfully portraited by Buñuel here, using his own surrealist …

I thought that every Mystery Science Theater was a movie, but that isn’t really the point. There really isn’t anything very special about this episode of “Mystery Science Theater” compared to any of the others, but then there doesn’t have to be. Watching Mystery Science Theater is the next …

Viewed by many as a gender switched redo of John Hughes and Howard Deutch previous collaboration Pretty in Pink, Some Kind of Wonderful is so much more than this and it is a kind of unfair label.
The stories and characters are much different. Whereas, Pretty in Pink focused on …
