Please, please, please…if you want to see a horrible horror movie, rent Wind Chill. I really thought, based on the reviews I saw on the Netflix website, that this film would be a little different than the typical “Scares in the Wildnerness” movies. I was right. …

Remember the Titans is in my opinion the second greatest football movie ever made after Brian’s Song. Sure, the movie is a bit predictable but that is the case for any film based on a true story. Not that big a deal in my opinion. I …

2 Weeks Notice with Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant is a movie in which the two stars play the exact same characters (with different names) that they have in a multitude of other movies that I have seen. While You Were Sleeping and Bridget Jones’ Diary come to mind. …

White Noise is yet another scary movie that wasn’t so scary. The movie is about people who try to contact ghosts using EVP. I mean some small parts of the movie were actually scary. But I thought most, of the movie was not scary at all. So as I was …

I finally got to watch the third movie in the X-men trilogy, X-Men The Last Stand. Overall, it was a decent film, but it should have been called Wolverine’s big movie.
The movie promised all the characters from the first two films, and it delivered. However, many of the main …

The Proposal is a romantic comedy movie that starts Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Sandra Bullock is such a good actress that any movie that stars her is probably a good quality movie. She plays a snobbish, selfish, egocentric boss who is a Canadian citizen and is in dire …

A great telling of the stories by Frank Miller. It’s dark, it’s mysterious, it’s dangerous, and as the tagline says…”Walk down the right back alley in Sin City and you can find anything.” Of all the many stories that were told, the best one to me is the story …

“View from the top” is an average movie about making your dreams comes true. It should convey a strong message of empowerment however the film is not that good. This is one of Gwyneth Paltrow’s movies and, may I say, not one of her best since it was a …

Even though War of the Worlds is a great movie and I enjoyed watching it very much, I was not happy with the fact that Tom Cruise played the leading role. I did not think the character of Ray Ferrier was portrayed as believable and may have been better …

Charlie’s Angels is an action packed movie about three women detectives who work to help stop crime all over the world. The stars of this movie are Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. This movie is action packed from the beginning to the end. One of the best …

While Transformers began with children in mind, Revenge of the fallen couldn’t have landed further without earning an “R” rating. While the robots are more numerous and larger in size, I must say I am a little disappointed with the lack of responsibility taken up by the team to …

Another foray into Disney’s celebrated fairy tale genre, “Tangled” is a retelling of the classic story of Rapunzel.

“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas!”
Words we’ve all no doubt sung many times. This Bing Crosby-Danny Kaye-Rosemary Clooney holiday classic is one I’ve watched more times than I can count. It definitely doesn’t need to be December for me to watch it.
I’ve owned the VHS for years, …

Upon prompting from a friend, I finally rented “Into the Wild” which was directed by Sean Penn. While I felt the film was meant to induce feelings of empathy for the main character, Christopher McCandless, I could not help but feel more sorrow for this boy’s family as they …

‘Gone Girl’ (mystery thriller) is a refreshing dose of mystery that doesn’t follow the same path that many mysteries have taken before. It’s a movie that deals with the unexpected and is just as good as the book it was based on (Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn). I couldn’t understand …

No Country for Old Men (2007) is a crime drama by directors Joel and Ethan Coen and is rated R by the MPAA.
No Country for Old Men tells the story of Lewellyn Moss (Josh Brolin), a hunter who stumbles across a drug deal gone bad and a case of …

For me the actor Kevin Costner’s name has become synonymous with watching certain kinds of films. Thus I consider him one of the more “serious” popular actors. Therefore, I found it interesting an refreshing to see that he was doing something a little different when I saw the trailer for …

One of the best movies that I’ve watched so far this year is a movie called “Limitless”. Even though I saw it advertising and read a multitude of good reviews on the movie, I didn’t watch it until a family member of mine finally persuaded me to. Even just …

Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban contains spoilers.

To some extent, the movie is said to be based on director Louis Malle’s remorseful recollection of events in 1944 during the time when the Nazis occupied France. ‘Au Revoir Les Enfants’ is a subtle and yet powerful film that reveals to us the potentials that can befall when …

A musical for all ages and a definite must have to any movie collector. I first saw this movie in childhood and to this day my family can still hear me using quotes from the film in addition to singing (offkey i might add) the ever popular tunes. Seven …

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is probably one of the most promoted movies of 2008 and this was supposed to be very funny and so I thought I would see the movie. This movie is made from the same people that made Knocked Up and Freaks and Geeks so I thought …

I had heard this was such a great movie, so I borrowed it from my local library. I had intended to read the book InCold Blood by Truman Capote, I went as far as to buy a copy at a yard sale but I did not get around to …

Very often, the old original movie is better than a modernized remake; however, in this case I must say that it is not so. I had watched “The Father of the Bride” with Steve Martin first, for many years having no idea that it was a remake. Then I …

It is now finally official, the once boy wizard who is known as the one to destroy Voldemort has come to the end of his legacy. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 2 came out in 2011 and was expected to be nothing short of a magical and …

Pursuit of Happiness starring Will Smith is the best movie I had ever seen in terms of potraying the real life situation. The struggle to existence and the survival of the fittest theory has been explained beautifully in the movie. Will smith acts as a ordinary sales person although …

When I first saw previews to the Pursuit of Happiness, I figured it was going to be a tear jerker but would ultimately be a boring film. I’m glad to say I was wrong.
Will Smith has attempted to do inspirational films before and has failed. He struck gold in …

I saw this movie back when I was in college. I never really like Mandy Moore as an actress but my boyfriend at that time wanted to watch it. This movie was also based from the book entitled A Walk To Remember also. I am not a Mandy Moore …

Wall*e is such a cute movie. I rented it for my kids the day that it was finally available on DVD.
It’s a story about a trash robot that was left on earth, along with other trash robots, all most seven hundred years ago. Humans had made so much trash …

Another new released movie, Made of Honor is one of the best movies that I’ve watched. I’m not bluffing alright. I could see the same lines of this movie in a novel and I would still enjoy reading it the same.
It stars my hunky favorite actor, whom …

I have seen several previews for the movie Planet 51 and thought it would be a movie that wouldn’t be nearly as good as advertised.
I was right about this.
The movie, which stars Dwayne Johnson as the voice of an astronaut who lands on a mysterious planet only to discover …

Up is another one of those animated films from Pixar that comes out every so often that we feel we’re too old for but end up watching anyhow. At least, that’s how I usually feel about animated films these days.
Up is about an old man, Carl Fredricksen who …

I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …

I have been an Adam Sandler fan for many years now and I really do enjoy all of his movies. You Don’t Mess With The Zohan is his latest movie. I really like him doing this film because it gave him a new identity. I love how he was …

With much hype surrounding such releases as Prince Caspian and Wanted, Indiana Jones without a doubt tops the list as the most anticipated and most wanted film of 2008 thus far, and perhaps of the entire 2008 to come. Was this mere hype that the man was returning after …

Oh joy -Herbie rides again (if you will pardon the pun). When I spotted Herbie Fully Loaded in a shop I simply had to have it. Always having loved watching the original movies when they came onto the television it seemed too good to be true that the little …

I must admit that recently I decided to take a nostalgic trip back to the 80’s and watched “Pretty in Pink”. In my opinion, this is one of the best movies for Molly Rigward along with “Sixteen Candles”. According to certain reviews, it also seems to be Molly Rigward …

I was waiting for my wife to get out of bed Sunday and ended up watching movies on the Lifetime Movie Network; starting with one called Imaginary Playmate.
