Airplane 2 movie
I absolutely loved the first Airplane movie and was excited when I rented the sequel to it. I wasn’t disappointed.
Set in the future, the movie gave spoofs a new twist by spoofing a classic film, 2001. Instead of being on an airplane, the heros are forced to land a …

Braveheart
For me, this movie was hard to watch. Brutal battles, blood, gore, and a horrible scene of torture in the end that I couldn’t handle; I just left and returned when it was nearly over. Mel Gibson plays William Wallace, a 13 century Scottish freedom fighter. After the English …

Without A paddle
This is a great movie for a day that you want to just kick your feet back and relax, maybe laugh a little. It was really funny in some parts, other parts were just ok funny. I really enjoyed watching it, and bought the movie. I would watch it …
Push movie
“Push” is a movie about people with powers. It’s set in a world where many people have powers that an secret agency has classified under terms like “pusher”, “reader,” “mover” and “eraser”. I was curious about this movie, even more so since it’s the first non-serious movie I’ve seen …
1408 (Movie) Starring John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson
I very rarely like movie commercials however when I saw the one for 1408 I liked it so much I decided to actually buy it. Though Stephen King did not direct the movie, it was based off of his book. With this in mind I was fairly certain that …

Steel Magnolias showcases the talents of Shirley MacLaine (Ouiser), Sally Field (M’Lynn), Dolly Parton (Truvy), Julia Roberts (Shelby), Olympia Dukakis (Clairee) and Daryl Hannah (Annelle). With a cast like that, how can you go …

Haunted Mansion (2003)
Honestly, I just find Nathaniel Parker cute that’s why I finished this movie and wishing I had been Marsha Thomason just to snatch that role. Yes, this is a funny movie but I was wondering why Walt Disney Pictures, or anyone else who has been part of making …
Jupiter Ascending (2015)-Movie
Jupiter Ascending is a average yet visually amazing movie.When i say average i am still being a bit generous because i believe despite the fact that it is forgettable movie, still it is a result of handwork of creators.They organized everything perfectly for it but things didn’t worked according to …

The Avengers Movie
Captain America . Thor. Iron Man . Hulk. These are characters that I grew up with and whose films I had fun with and I have always looked forward to. What happens when all these characters fall into one and the same mixture? A true epic! Marvel’s production “The …
Nature vs. Nurture
Originality is not one of the strong suits of the minds behind Tripping the Rift. The show is on the whole of it nothing more than a fairly uninspired riff on everything that has come to be considered part of science fiction over the last 100 or so …
Charlie’s Angels
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie Charlie’s Angels. The last version I watched was the sequel, which I hated, so it was refreshing to see the original again.
While some parts of the movie are a bit dumb, this film, overall, isn’t too bad.
You have an all …
Where The Wild Things Are movie
Like many others, I grew up loving the book “Where The Wild Things Are”, and though I’m not a child anymore, when I found out a movie was coming out I was genuinely intrigued. How do you turn a 10-15 page children’s picture book into a full-length movie? Well, …

Although this is a children’s movie I loved it. Ashton Kutcher and Martin Lawrence play in it and they do an amazing job in the movie and do an amazing job acting together in it. I really laughed at some of the parts. This one of my favorite children’s …
Dreamgirls
I give this movie five stars. After leaving the theater, I wiped the tears out of my eyes and headed to the nearest place I could buy the soundtrack. Don’t mistake me, this is not a sappy movie, but it does pull on your emotions. After a month of …

Grave of the Fireflies

My husband and I saw this movie last night. The movie started out with the viewer knowing quite a bit of the continuing saga of the alien and predator saga. It did pick up where the last left off with the predator having captured some specimens of …
Images of Bruce Lee
Has Bruce Lee ever made a bad movie? Well, yes and no, he hasn’t. The movies starring Bruce Lee himself, yes they were awesome, and they still are. But after Bruce’s untimely death during the filming of the Crow, several savvy B-movie directors decided that they could easily capitalize …
Brothers (2009) movie
Brothers was an interesting film to say the least the three lead roles really made this movie for me, but overall I enjoyed it and it somewhat relates to real life.
The plot of the movie is pretty straight forward but there are lots of subtle entities that you …

Serenity movie
In 2005, fan encouragement resulted in this movie called Serenity. It was a follow up to the science fiction series Firefly. Now, I’ve only seen a couple of episode of Firefly. It just didn’t grab me at the time, so I’m a bit behind the story when …
Mary, Queen of Scots movie
Mary, Queen of Scots is a great movie about the Queen who held her ground and took on England and anyone else who dared defy her. Vanessa Redgrave plays Mary, and she is super in this role. I had to watch this movie in one of my history classes …
The movie the bounty hunter
I thought that the movie The bounty hunter had all the makings of a good film. It had an interesting storyline and a few good actors Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler. However it did not come together. Most of the time I felt like the actors were looking at …

I quickly became a fan of the movie Finding Nemo shortly after Pixar released it. I not only liked the story but fell in love with the characters. I don’t know how many times I watched it. I must have watched enough to memorize most of its quotes. I …
There Will Be Blood movie
There Will Bo Blood is a film based in the early 1900’s (I think) about a man who loses his wife, and takes his son (who is probably 8 or 9) with him from place to place to cheat people out of buying their land if they had oil …
Three Wishes DVD
Firmly locked in as one of my top ten Patrick Swayze movies, Three Wishes is a magical delight. It has a great cast with Swayze, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Joseph Mazzello, and Seth Mumy. With the recent death of Swayze, I wanted to watch one of his movies …
Freaky Friday movie
Upon seeing the trailer of Freaky Friday I was already laughing my head off so I decided that I would watch the movie. I’m sure glad I did because the movie was worth every penny. I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. Freaky Friday is a …
Gravity (science fiction movie)
Gravity is one of those movies that I kept hearing from people that I had to see. I couldn’t really understand why either since I thought that the trailer didn’t really appeal to me much, and I’m not too fond of many of the movies that the actress Sandra Bullock …

Babylon A.D.

Contraband, movie (1980)
Many film fans likely know Lucio Fulci as a director of some of Italy’s goriest horror movies. Oddly enough, he started out directing comedies before hitting it big as a horror director, breaking out with 1979’s Zombie. On a few occasions, Fulci made films in other genres …
