The Ultimate Gift Movie Starring Jason Fuller
Recently, my interest in horror movies has weaned a bit and I have had a shift towards inspirational movies that have a financial quest inclination to them, with the most recent delight being a movie called ‘The Ultimate Gift’, starring Drew Fuller.
From the very first moment I was completely …
Newsies movie
I first saw the movie Newsies when I was in high school as part of my chorus class. Ever since seeing the movie for the first time, I can’t go a year without needing to rent it again.
Overall, the movie probably isn’t the best musical out there. But, it’s …
Hollywood Homicide (2003)
Ok my good people, I guess we asked for it and it was given to us as promised, this is where Hollywood meets police meets Hollywood get it? Me neither, but in essence, this movie is about two police detectives who are not getting enough payment from their regular …
Legend (movie)
I had heard of the Tom Cruise film “Legend,” but I never got around to watching it until last night. While, overall, it wasn’t a bad movie, I’m not sure if I was overly impressed by it either.
Cruise plays a hermit who is called on to face the Prince …
Tenacious D (movie)
“Tenacious D” was a movie that I watched recently on a cable television channel. I can remember seeing the movie being promoted when it had just come out, but I had dismissed it completely because I thought that it was going to be silly, and I generally don’t find …
Motion Picture “Dirty Dancing”
The movie Dirty Dancing was released in 1987. It was such a big hit that someone attempted to make the movie into a tv show the following year. Unfortunately the show was just awful and only lasted a few episodes. I was a kid at the …
Waterboy
When the movie Waterboy first came out, it was one of my favorite movies. But, after watching it quite a few times, both on DVD and on TV, I’m coming to realize it really isn’t that great of a film after all.
Adam Sandler is funny in it and I …
Swing Hostess movie
Swing Hostess, a 1944 musical film, felt very much like a predecessor to Singing in the Rain to me. I thought of that almost all the way through, although it wasn’t the same story exactly.
One of the things I really liked about his movie was seeing how the …
World of Glory movie

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
“Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” 1975, is one ridiculous movie, a treat for a lover of absurdities and slapstick humor. King Arthur and some of his knights are searching for the holy grail. For some reason they ride imaginary horses - yes, that’s right: throughout the movie …
The 10th Kingdom (2000 Film)

Supreme Sanction
Supreme Sanction with Kristy Swanson, Michael Madsen, Ron Perlman, and Donald Faison.
This is one horrible movie. I’m sorry but Kristy Swanson cannot follow up her Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie to carry her own poorly scripted action movie. Madsen, as a villain, is too …

Clueless

Rachel Getting Married (2008 film)
The 2008 movie “Rachel Getting Married” might have had a great cast who fell into the roles of their characters phenomenally, and maybe they have done that too well. Because Anne Hathaway who plays Rachel’s sister, Kim, in the movie, really got on my nerves and I think that …

Joshua (R, 2007) movie
