I had never watched the story of Batman before this movie. I had just always really thought of all super heroes as always just kind of being there. But when I watched this movie, I really liked the way how it explained all of Bruce Wayne’s history, how he …

I recently had a go at Madagascar 2 since the release of the first one. I remember the tons of popular names in the show that I really didn’t know who at that point of time.
I used to wonder how a lion and a zebra could co exist too. …

It is always better to be safe than sorry. Just like these guys (and girl) who got drunk and danced on graves; and their misfortune to have chosen …

I haven’t been a fan of Wonder Woman for very long. Most of my knowledge of her came from her supporting role in the Justice League cartoon and comics. It wasn’t until I heard very positive things about Gail Simone’s run that I actually started to pick …

I love this classic old black and white movie and watch it every time it comes on TV. Directed by Billy Wilder (who also directed the fabulous Some Like it Hot amongst others), it tells the story of fictional silent movie star, Norma Desmond - played very melodramatically …

“The Forbidden Kingdom”, directed by Rob Minkoff, is a rather highly predictable tale involving a Kung-Fu crazy american teenager, a ‘drunken immortal’(Jackie Chan), a monkey god(Jet Li) and a megalomaniacal military warlord. The plot revolves around the monkey god’s golden staff, which was separated from him by the cunning …

I was one of those people who was interested in watching the movie “The Thoery of Everything” long before it became nominated for various awards and won several Oscars. This was because I was thrilled with the idea of a movie about Professor Stephen Hawking’s life, his romance with Jane …

When the movie Interview with a Vampire came out, I thought it was a fantastic film. And, I still do think it is better than some of the so-called vampire movies that are out today (like Twilight). But, I have to tell you, I watched it again last night …

If ever there was a film that kept me riveted to my seat, it is The Departed starring Jack Nicholson, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Matt Damon amongst a few other greats. The story pits the three in a race against each other and opposite forces (criminals vs. the police). …

I am not afraid of spiders (nor anything else 1000th of my size) but this movie had me checking my blankets before crawling into bed.
Starring Jeff Daniels, …

I recently watched Pan’s Labyrinth. First I must say that I rarely enjoy movies that I have to read the subtitles. If I wanted to read something it would be a book or a magazine or even a website. There I can go at my own pace and read …

I am a big Marvel Comics fan so when there was stories about X-Men being made into a movie, I was thrilled. Unforunately, it took some years for the first movie to come out and I was not happy. I have almost all of the X-Men comics books and …

I’ve just returned from watching the newly released ‘The Pursuit of Happiness’ starring Will Smith. Based on a true rags-to-riches story of a smart and hard-working man, the movie has left me touched, encouraged’ and a little depressed. It’s not that I didn’t know that life can be hard; …

I don’t know what on the earth prompt me to go for this movie; I had already read so many reviews about the film with filled mixed reactions. Those who had watched highly acclaimed classic with the same name made in 1951 simply loathed this one. I myself had …

One of the most disappointing movies of the year, Fast and Furious 4 was a flat, uninteresting film. I was dismayed that even the actors came out flat here. It came off like a bad “made for TV” low budget movie. There are no twists or events …

From 1995, The Net is a suspenseful, very well made drama. It’s identity theft to the nth degree, and it’s scary. Sandra Bullock plays Angela Bennett. She’s somewhat of a recluse, and she’s a computer nerd/geek. She’s a master programmer and hacker, and she knows …

This film is must watching film, I laugh from the beginning to the end of the film.

As a child, Norbit love Kate, a fellow …

I still remember that day in October, 2013 when Gravity opened in cinemas and I was one of the first people who saw it on its opening day. The cinema was rather surprisingly empty, mimicking the vast space where this film was mostly set. It became a box-office phenomenon a …

The trouble with Denzel Washington is that he is the same person in every one of his movies. Every once in a while, he has a breakthrough role that is different. Deja Vu is not that kind of role for him. Compare his role in Inside Man, Man …

“The Boy She Met Online” was a made for television movie that I watched on Lifetime. In the movie, a teenage girl meets a young man who she doesn’t know is actually incarcerated in a chatroom. He tells her instead that he’s studying engineering at a university. He soon …

I just finished watching this movie few days ago with my family. I have watched the first movie “The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe” before but I am not impressed with it at all. There are just too many missing plots and the action scenes are pretty normal, …

I’ve been making my way through the “Friday the 13th” film series. It is one of the iconic horror/slasher franchises out there and I hadn’t seen it yet. Since I’ve been on a bit of a horror kick lately, I figured that now was as good a …

Come Back, Little Sheba is a classic black and white film made in 1952. When I first heard about this movie, I really thought Come Back, Little Sheba was about little more than a lost dog and his heartbroken owner. Come Back, Little Sheba is beautifully done, even though …

I never knew Russell Crowe could emulate or do a better job than Gladiator, and the 2 movies are equally famous for it’s story and the actors and actresses involved. Russell Crowe as Robinhood was quite old, and I had first thought all the characters were too old for …

Few movies try to bring something new these days. Most of the time people flock to the movie theaters to see tired and unnecessary rehashes of old films or either comic book movies that have been made to death. Everyone wants a blockbuster with big names attached to them.
Movies like …

In this movie, Charles Muntz …

This movie depicts many woman’s ideal job. It would be fun, in my opinion, to plan the perfect wedding, nailing down every detail, including the perfect best man’s speech.

Before last year I had ever heard of this film. In fact, when I first saw the title of it on the televsion guide I had mistaken it for a romance movie which I think might have been set in the mid nineteenth century. However, when I watched the …

Blackboard Jungle with Glen Ford, Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow, and Anne Francis.
I do not understand all the hoopla for this movie as it was very mediocre. Glen Ford is a pleasant enough actor, but not right in the role of a inspirational teacher. Sidney …
