The Big Short (2015 Film)
As the days become smaller until the Oscars ceremony this coming February 28, I have become so anxious to watch every movie that is nominated.
The Big Short is currently one of the frontrunners of the race, and it is very hard to miss a frontrunner, otherwise you would blame yourself …
Erin Brokovich
I have adored Julia Roberts since Pretty Woman and Sleeping with the Enemy. I had seen Erin Brokovich when I was in my teens and although I enjoyed the movie, I did not really understood it. I had an opportunity to watch it during my own free time and …

The Watchmen
I saw the movie “The Watchmen” recently and I really liked it, however I wouldn’t recommend it to parents with children under age 15.
The movie itself was fantastic, the camerawork was wonderful, the actors were great, and the dialog was witty.
However, I have a borderline large issue with the …
Little Black Book movie
Little Black Book is a romantic comedy movie with a little bit drama in it. The movie was not a successful movie but I found it a so-so movie. It is not a great movie but at the same time, it is not a bad movie either. The movie …

Zip.ca Movie Service
I have had a subscription to Zip.ca for about four months. I live in a rural area, so I like not having to rush into town to return movies as there are no due dates for titles as long as your membership is current.
I pay under $30 a …
Knocked Up (UnRated, 2007) movie
Seth Rogen is my all-time new hero. I love that he’s shlubby, because his dry sense of humor makes him seem more attractive than he actually is. In any event, this is the whole premise of the movie “Knocked Up.” Catherine Heigl portrays Allison, …
Enter The Dragon Classic Marshial Arts Movie Starring Bruce Lee
As time goes by and the inevitable process of growing up takes its course, certain things that I used to love back when I was smaller seem quite stupid now, especially some of the things I enjoyed like movies and television shows. The acting seems really bad, along with …
Hacksaw Ridge (2016 Biographical War Drama Film)
I admit I did not have any desire to watch this film ever since it was announced Mel Gibson is seating at the director’s chair. Plus the idea of another war movie is exhausting to think about unless your name is Christopher Nolan (Dunkirk will be released this year and …
Beast Wars: Transformers - The Complete Third Season Set
The complete third season of Beast Wars: Transformers on DVD is a letdown. It’s not the fault of the picture or sound quality on the DVD set, although the amount of “extras” is very disappointing, but it’s the episodes that are the real problem. Unlike season two, the scripts …

The Ghost and the Darkness movie
My wife and I watched a movie yesterday that we are both huge fans of “The Ghost and the Darkness.”
When this movie first came out, I didn’t even know what it was. I figured it was a movie about a ghost. When I watched it the first time, however, …
Mirrors 2008 DVD
I bought this movie’s DVD. The title of the movie seemed like a very justified name fr a horror flick. I was overall pleased with his film.

E.T., The Extraterrestrial
Disney proved that boy-and-his-dog movies were always popular, as did Lassie. But could boy-and-his-alien work the same way? I believe only if told by the right person. Steven Spielberg was that right person. Continuing in his aliens-are-our-friends vein, he brought us E.T., The Extraterrestrial. This was on of only …
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)

Shrek the Third
In my opinion, Shrek the Third is the best movie of the Shrek movies. I liked Shrek 1 and Shrek 2 even more than 1 because of the addition of Puss in Boots. Shrek 3 I like even more than Shrek 2; that isn’t saying a whole …
All The King’s Men movie
“All The King’s Men” is a great movie, even though most critics things otherwise. The great assets of this movie are a great cast of actors and a great story based on the novel written by Robert Penn Warren. It is a true pity that Hollywood didn’t give this …
The Cabin in the Woods (movie)
Even though I realize that a lot of other people don’t seem to share my opinion on this, I thought that “The Cabin in the Woods” was a very interesting movie, and I would gladly watch it again. This is despite all the bad reviews that I read about …
Secret Window Movie
This movie, starring Johnny Depp, was actually very entertaining. Johnny Depp is always good, and in this movie, he didn’t disappoint. It keeps audiences into the story from beginning to end. The characters are also interesting. You feel a connection with the characters and care what happens to them. …
Moulin Rouge
Moulin Rouge is one of my most favorite movies of all time and I teared while watching this. I don’t know why but there is something personal and touching about stories that have elements of forbidden love. This sweeping movie story reminds me a lot on Romeo and …

Carol (2015 Film)
I have been an avid follower of the Oscars’ race since 2013, when I was rooting for Gravity (then my favorite film of the year) to win the Best Picture (which would have been the first for a sci-fi film). And since then, I followed and watched all the films …
Couples Retreat (2009) movie
Couples Retreat is a new comedy that was recently released. I saw it in theaters and saw it again recently on Dvd so I though I would write up a review on it.
It is the story of four couples who all have there own issues. Two are thinking …

Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …
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 River Wild
Most movies that star Kevin Bacon have him as a lovable person. The River Wild is one of those movies that’s a bit different because it turns the guy who usually plays a hero into the villain and the contrast works.
The thing I like about The River Wild is …
The Return movie
Normally, when I watch a Sarah Michelle Gellar movie, I expect there to be a lot of action and a little bit of terror. Her movie The Return provided the latter but not enough of the former.
The idea behind The Return is a good one. Gellar plays a …

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 …
Across the Universe Movie
The husband and I recently watched the movie “Across the Universe”. I had been looking forward to it for quite awhile since I am a big Beatles fan. We were not disapointed and I was pleased to see my husband get so into a musical.
Previews of the …
Avengers: Age of Ultron (action adventure movie)
After watching Avengers Assemble in 2012, I became convinced that the next Avengers movie would be the most epic superhero movie I’d ever watched. Then earlier on this year when the final trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron was released I had absolutely no doubt in my mind that I …
Prince Caspian
I think that the movie Prince Caspian is unduly overlooked. I am a huge fan of Narnia, so maybe I’m biased, but I do believe that this movie deserves far more recognition and rave. Ever since the first Narnia movie was released, I looked forward to Prince Caspian; the …
Twilight- Movie
My thirteen year old daughter is in love with the Twilite Movie. She has even read the book she liked it so much, and she is not one to read a book if it wasn’t an assignment. I can’t say as I loved the movie, but it is a …

Is anyone else a Mel Brooks film lover? I know I am. The first time I saw one of his films, I was a kid and asked my mother about any other films he might have made. My first one was …
I’ve Been Waiting for You movie
When it comes to horror movies, there are truly scary films and ones that rely solely on blood and gore. Then there are movies that have neither and are quite bad. Unfortunately, “I’ve Been Waiting for You” falls into this final category.
Set in Massachusetts, the movie revolves around a …
Saving Privae Ryan
I remember going to the movies with my husband and father-in-law to see the movie Saving Private Ryan, starring Tom Hanks. I actually saw some old men with tears in their eyes having to leave the theater.
The movie starts with this old man bringing his family back …
27 Dresses (Movie)
This is a movie about weddings, which is a topic that I love to watch in movies. Of course with any movie about weddings, there is some kind of conflict having to do with the bride. And that’s definitely the case in this movie. The main character is in …
The City of Ember
I’ve watch this movie just now. Well, it’s trully movies for teenage and below. Not a good action adventure movies as i imagine before. This movie is taken from Jeanne DuPrau in 2003, about the human evolution that makes the world is not safe anymore, so human must stay …

Movie Accepted
I am a person who normally avoids movies about college life. It’s not that I haven’t enjoyed classics like Animal House, but it seems most college-themed movies focus almost solely on showing as many naked co-eds as possible and the films really lack substance.
That’s why I’m glad I got …
