‘Shutter Island’ movie
I remember seeing trailers for this movie a few years back, but I don’t recall hearing anything one way or the other. The trailers made it look like a solid psychological thriller, so I figured I’d check it out.

The Pride of Jesse Hallam movie
I honestly wasn’t expecting to enjoy The Pride of Jesse Hallam, a 1981 movie that I recently had the chance to see. I just didn’t think it would appeal to me. Plus, the star was Johnny Cash (playing the title role), and usually I don’t tend to …
The Addiction
The Addiction is a movie about vampires. It seems as if lately, in the last twenty years or so, there is a great interest in portraying vampires on the big screen, but not necessarily in the way that the older films used to. Maybe it started with spoofing Dracula, …
“To Kill a Mockingbird” (1962)
“To Kill a Mockingbird” is an excellent movie based on the Pulitzer Prizewinning novel by Harper Lee. Screenplay is by Horton Foote. Like all good movies it can be viewed on various levels, but I tend to think of it as a childhood memoir. The movie is told from …
My Fair Lady
1964’s My Fair Lady is definitely a movie classic. It’s a musical that continues to touch those who view it. It’s well made and excellently portrayed.
Rex Harrison stars as Professor Henry Higgens, with Audrey Hepburn as Eliza Doolittle. One must wonder if the picture would have …
Movie: Penelope
“Penelope” is a small-budget movie that was apparently released sometime in 2008, although I do not remember any advertising for the movie. Anyway, my wife and I rented it this past weekend. It was a surprisingly charming ‘modern day fairy tale’ staring Christina Ricci and James McAvoy. …

And Then She Found Me movie
“And Then She Found Me” is very much a by product from the actress, Helen Hunt. For the first time we don’t see Hunt acting only, but she was also involved in screen writing and directing this movie. Although this movie has a great story and a great cast; …
Mulholland Falls
OK, maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Nick Nolte fan but I just can’t seem to get the movie Mulholland Falls. When it first came out, it looked entertaining. I like thrillers that make me think and thought this film would fit that category. And, having some A-list …
Movie “Going the Distance” (2010)
I am not a big fan of romantic comedies. I do watch a handful per year but they are not my favorite genre. I picked this one up from netflix mostly because I had sen every thing else in new releases. I was pleasantly surprised at …
Sucker Punch (2011 Film)
Sucker Punch is one of those movies that you have to watch with an open mindset. The jest of this movie, for the most part, isn’t going to come to you quickly. To the plain eye, it looks like a fantasy chick flick with vivid graphics. I can be honest …
One Hour Photo movie
“One Hour Photo” is the movie that caused people to view Robin Williams from an entirely different perspective. I (like dozens of others) am used to seeing Robin in his typical comedic roles. I have seen him perform in touching dramas, and love stories. So to …
Practical Magic movie

The Medallion (2003)
Is it me, or is it a case that of late, every single movie that Jackie Chan stars in, he plays the role of a police officer or some other enforcement officer that happens to get caught on the wrong side of the law. I do not think it’s …
The Game Plan Movie
Dwayne Johnson is hot. There is no doubt about it. And it gets even better seeing him star opposite a little girl star Madison Pettis. This is about a famous foot ball player who doesn’t know that he has a daughter, and the girl shows up on his doorstep. …

Twilight movie
Twilight is my favorite movie. It is about a vampire who fell in love with a mortal. That is the conflict in the story because a vampire human relationship is prohibited. Even though the story is quite simple and it looks like another teeny movie. I am …

Braveheart film
When we think about the Middle Ages what strikes us is a lot of savagery, pain and torture but above them all the notion of heroism, which taken that manages to deal with all the challenges previously enlisted stands out more than anything we can …
Signs (movie)
The director of this movie, M. Night Shyamalan, first gained critical acclaim with his psychological thriller with The Sixth Sense. While I agree that was a very good movie, I believe Signs to be the stronger of the two. This movie would probably go on my top …

Killa Season: The Movie

Dead Poets Society (1989 Film)
The 1989 film, Dead Poets Society, was an emotional, rejuvenating yet sorrowfully disturbing tale that left me both impressed, yet extremely sad for the main characters. If you are a fan of an elaborate tale about being inspired to enjoy literature as well as life by “Seizing the day” …
The Pacifier movie
Yesterday night I watched this movie, first time I thought that it just ordinary saving mission or something like that. But its got more interesting in the middle of the movie, when the main actor (Vin Diesel) as Shane have mission to save some important program made by some …
