Silver Streak Movie
Silver Streak is one of my favorite movies. It turned 30 years old this year, but is still fresh and fun to watch. I just watched it again just a few minutes ago and laughed and enjoyed it as if were the first time I’d seen it.
I fell in …

X men Origins: Wolverine
X men Origins: Wolverine turned out to be better than I expected. I wasn’t expecting much because I thought it would be incomplete and completely stupid to concentrate on one character. But it turned out pretty good and interesting.
It did turn out to be a good movie but definitely …

Movie Independence Day (1996)
Independence Day is one of my all-time favorite films. Some of my favorite actors are in this movie, including Jeff Goldblum - who, as usual, plays a highly intelligent guy with answers to very important questions - and Will Smith who adds an incredible amount of action to the …
Spider man 3
I am not usually one who enjoys fiction super hero moview, or bookd for that matter. I also was not to impressed with either spider man one or two, but spider man 3 is a very exciting movie with action packed fight scenes that will keep you on the …

“The Horse Whisperer” (1998) Robert Redford,Kristin Scott Thomas

Human Remains
Before Merchant and Gervais brought the mockumentary back to our screens with The Office, there was Human Remains. Although its legacy remains in the minds of those who fell in love with back in 2000, it certainly hasn’t earned the success it deserves. The show follows a simple premise: …

Hot Tub Time Machine Movie (2010)
When I saw the trailer for this movie, I immediately wanted to watch it and had made a mental note that I should see this as it seemed like a real comedy. The movie features John Cusack, Clark Duke, Craig Robinson, Rob Corddry, Crispin Glover, and Chevy Chase with …
Dave Movie
This movie was surprisingly good, much better than I expected. When I saw the PG-13 rating and read the blurb - a lookalike of the American President temporarily takes the President’s place - I thought there would be some stupid stuff, like him having sex with the President’s wife, …
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
When I first saw Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom back in 1984, I was disappointed. It had none of the exciting elements that made Raiders so successful. The biggest missing elements are the supporting cast. Brody was clearly a mentor to Dr. Jones. And Marion, the love …
Tyler Perry Madea goes to jail movie
Tyler Perry Made goes to jail is one of the funniest movie I’ve seen in a long time. I really had a great time watching all of it. It’s hilarious to see Tyler dressing up as a woman. She’s wearing this women outfit and she acts like a man. …
Pan’s Labyrinth (R, 2006) movie
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 …
Hairspray (2007)
This movie is absolutely amazing.
Firstly, the casting of the characters was simply perfect. There’s no denying the newly-discovered Nikki Blonsky IS Tracy Turnblad. She can act, and she can sing (BOYYY, can she sing!). John Travolta is hilarious as Edna Turnblad, and he can really move in that fat …
The FBI Story movie
The FBI Story is a really wonderful movie starring James Stewart as a man who decides to become an FBI agent. He has high ideals and he wants to act on them. These are the early days of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and through Stewart’s character, …

Coraline (Animation)
Coraline, the animation movie, is pretty scary. I don’t know if most kids would love to watch this. However, I find this to be like a dark animation or some sort and don’t mind watching.
Kids nowadays are more braver, so I think they can take this. With voice-over …

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 …
Curtain Call,1999 movie
This is a very light romantic comedy, with a plot so simple, silly, and predictable that I think it would have completely fallen through if it wasn’t for Michael Caine and Maggie Smith, the two wonderful actors who save it.
Stevenson Lowe (James Spader) is a successful publisher and a …
Let’s Go Collegiate movie
Let’s Go Collegiate was a movie released in 1941 that is basically a lot of college age nonsense. I tried, but I couldn’t get all that into the fun of this picture. It was okay, but I just didn’t really take to the story and none of …
Mr. and Mrs Smith
“Mr and Mrs Smith” is the movie that made the actors; Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie meet together on screen. It seems that they were so great together that after this movie, Pitt left his wife, the actress Jennifer Aniston to start living with Jolie and have a family.

Underdog the Movie
Just imagine Lassie with super powers, Good Boy with manners and you get Underdog. If you loved watching movies featuring animals, then you probably already know how this movie will end. It was really painful to watch, and I had to endure it for a long time since I …

Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf movie
Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf is one of the outings that I always remember, probably because it featured two soap opera stars in the leads. It’s not that I’m a fan of either of them, as I’m not, but it’s just something I remember. The two actors are …
Alice in Wonderland (2010)
My review is very so so with this movie. I was so excited to see it because I heard how awesome it was and I am a huge Johnny Depp fan. I had it in my NetFlix queue for ever and was uber excited when they finally sent it …
Obsessed
I wasn’t sure I wanted to watch the movie “Obsessed” this past weekend. But, my wife wanted to see it and it was her birthday.
It turned out to be an OK film.
It is actually similar to many other films I’ve seen. You have a successful black guy who is …
Raiders of the Lost Ark
OK, as far as Raiders of the Lost Ark is concerned, it�s a great movie in terms of action sequences and special effects, but the script leaves a little to be desired.

I saw ‘Kung Fu Panda’ a few days ago. The first thing that hit me as soon as the movie started was the awesome graphics. This animated movie brings together Jack Black(Po), Dustin Hoffman(master shifu), Angelina Jolie (Tigress), Ian McShane (Tai Lung), Jackie Chan (Monkey), Lucy Liu (Viper), Seth …

Catch Me If You Can
“Catch Me If You Can” is a by product of a mixture of Tom Hanks and Leonardo diCaprio talents together with the great talents of the director Steven Spielberg. I must admit that I really had high expectations about this movie. After watching it, I must say that “Catch …

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. …
