Kelly’s Heroes
Kelly’s Heroes with Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Donald Sutherland, Don Rickles, and Carroll O’Connor.
Generally there are great difficulties in pulling off comedic themes within the arena of war and killing, but this movie succeeded in just that. This movie became a cult classic because of …

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)
I went to see this film opening night, and of course, the theater was packed with people dressed in wizard costumes with scars on their foreheads. Just like other avid readers of the Harry Potter books, I had been very critical of the previous films and came in with …
Apocalypto (spoilers)
Apocalypto must be one of the funniest movies I’ve seen this year. The problem is, it wasn’t supposed to be a comedy. But I couldn’t help but burst out laughing towards the end of the film. It just was too much, by that time.
First off, the …
Letters To Juliet Movie (2010)
Amanda Seyfried had been recently into wholesome love-story romantic movies which involves comedy and romance, so when I saw the trailer for this I was waiting for the film to be shown already. When I watched this movie, I felt as if I was also in the movie because …
A Troll in Central Park
The first time I heard of the animated movie “A Troll in Central Park” was some time after it was released in the nineteen nineties. I was not a child any more at the time so I did not have much interest in it and I thoguht it was …
Ocean’s 13
Far better than Oceans 12, Oceans 13 is a fun movie. This movie is as filled with celebrity as all of the other two Oceans movies. Full of double and triple crosses, this is as much a move about conmen as robbery.
The problem that I have had with every …

You Can’t Run Away From It movie
I’m not sure if I’ve seen You Can’t Run Away From It before or not. It’s vaguely familiar, but not readily in my brain. Of course, it could be the basic story that rings in my head since this is a musical remake of the classic, “It …
Just Friends comedy
The first time I watched the “Just Friends” Dvd, I was nearly in tears. I love this movie. The actors play their roles so well, that the viewer is fully capable of feeling sympathy, embarrassment, anger, joy, ect for all of the characters. I can’t begin to recall the …
Notes on a Scandal Movie
The fact that only select cinemas screened this movie meant something and when I saw that it was a European movie, I knew it was going to be good! I kind of knew what to expect: lengthy dialogues, character-driven plots, and a very unique story.
The movie started with …
Carolina Moon (2007 Film)
The 2007 film “Carolina Moon” is based on a novel by Nora Roberts. While I have not read the novel, I found the movie to be heart warming and very interesting, with a bit of the supernatural thrown in there as well. It was also a wonderful mystery type …
The Lobster (2015 Film)
Never in my life had I felt very weird and astonished at the same time after watching a film. A lot of times I felt very weird and strange though, one after watching Paolo Sorrentino’s 2015 film Youth, however, not feeling astonished at the same but rather awkward and looking …

Body of Lies
Watching Leonardo Dicaprio acting in Body of Lies, I could feel the tension brewing in his character and I watched this before when it was released in my country sometime last year.
There is something mysterious and foreboding whenever spy movies or movies that are filled with CIA Agents give me. …

Across the Universe (2007 film)
As a Beatles fan, I put off seeing “Across the Universe” for a while-even when others raved about it-because it didn’t seem like any movie could really do justice to the music-and I’m including the movies the Beatles themselves actually made, with the possible exception of “Magical Mystery Tour,” …
Gormenghast Movie
A very unusual british film about a noble family in a state of crisis. Gormenghast is the name of their enormous mansion. It’s a more artsy kind of film than I had first expected, with long takes and innovative camerawork. It also has some interesting aspects in the mood …
Do Not Disturb movie
Doris Day stars with Rod Taylor in Do Not Disturb. It’s not a big favorite of mine, and it’s not as fun or entertaining as her movies with Rock Hudson and James Garner were. While Taylor’s other outing with Day, The Glass Bottom Boat, was a winner …
Wedding Crashers (starring Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn)
Wedding Crashers is a total amazing movie story featuring 2 great actors, naming Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn and in this story, they are two best friends whom are just make a guess? Yes, wedding crashers.

The Benchwarmers
One of my favorite artist is Rob Schneider. Well aside from the fact that he is half Filipino, I consider him as one of the best comedian in Hollywood.
I’ve first watched the movie 3 months ago, I just rented a DVD but it was absolutely ludicrous, we (me and …
Limitless (2011) Movie
If I had to describe limitless in one word, I would describe it as intelligent. Normally when we get a movie that isn’t either a comedy or a horror movie, nine times out of ten, I’m not that into it.
Limitless is an awesome Sci-Fi thriller about a writer …

Are you ready for ‘Fantsia’ for the new generation? Then you need to check out Animusic 2. It is a compilation of music set to computer animated ‘droids’ playing the ‘instruments’.
It is hard to come by the words for this cool film. It is perfect for any age. It …
Perfect Stranger
I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by the newly released film “Perfect Stranger” starring Halle Berry and Bruce Willis.
The story of the film is completely enthralling with twists and turns all over the place. It left me unable to move, just waiting for the next sequence of …

300 (movie)
This was definitely a man’s movie. Rocky with a sword times three hundred. It was over the top, overflowing with testosterone both in the battlefield and at home. It reminded me a lot of Gladiator, with just a darker feel to it. The way it was filmed was very …
Charlie’s Angels movie

Bubble Boy
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie Bubble Boy. But, after seeing it today, I can remember why I loved it so much.
What is better than a tale about a boy who is forced to live his life in a bubble because he doesn’t have an immune …
Willy Wonka is Willy Bad
I have seen both versions of Willy Wonka and I can speak from personal experience. Johnny Depp couldn’t be more awful! The old version portrayed Wonka as a dignified adult of English society with a streak of uncontrollable genius.
In this movie the jokes are corny and disgusting, the Oopa …
The Good Girl
The Good Girl shows Jennifer Anniston at her finest, I think. Jennifer Anniston plays Justine, a married woman working at a small town, dumpy store the equivalent of a Wal Mart. Justine does cosmetics, and makes other women beautiful. Justine doesn’t feel so beautiful, however, and it is apparent …
Into The Wild
Into the Wild is both touching and inspiring. I guess one of the things I remembered most was that it was based on a true story. That makes me feel a bit sorry for the parents, as I have five wonderful children of my own. I can understand how …

Cinderella movie
Compared to the thousands of other Disney films that have come out since, Cinderella is far from the best animated film ever made. However, it’s still a real treat to watch whenever you have a family movie night.

Suspect Zero (R, 2004) movie
