I found Sleepers to be quite an interesting film, mainly due to the fact that I am a fan of a good revenge story.
I wasn’t entirely satisfied at the ending, but I feel that the emotion captured by the actors was so good that it softened the blow a …

Robin Williams and Sally Field star in Mrs. Doubtfire. This movie is so comical it will keep you laughing for days. It is about a man and woman that get a divorce over the man always loosing his job and spoiling the kids. When Daniels ex-wife decides to hire …

This year is the year of surprises for me. I have expected many films to be great, such as Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad and Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk and they end up not matching my expectations. However, films such as Sing Street, Swiss Army Man, Hunt for the …

I have had this movie in my Netflix queue for a long time. And just like so many others, I kept passing over it for some reason or another. I liked the idea of seeing Peter Dinklage (the famous dwarf featured on FX’s Nip/Tuck) in an independent …

I loved Mean Girls. I already knew Regina wouldn’t be here and this cast of the sequel would all be new but still, I’m a girl and I’d love to see how this 2nd Mean Girls movie would turn out. Turns out my expectations were right. This was nowhere …

I watched the movie “Grease” with my daughter this afternoon on DVD.
“Grease” is pretty much a classic musical which stars Olivia Newton John as Sandy and John Travolta as Danny Zuko. This movie was made in 1977. This movie is based on the play but I do think the …

Resident Evil 4: Afterlife was a very wonderful surprise for a lover of the video series like myself. The movie promised to be better then Extinction, but I didn’t believe that. I thought it would be another long, drawn out movie …

In today’s society of “I”, “me” and “myself”, 7 Pounds is a story of selflessness. The film stars Hollywood star Will Smith as he went on to give “himself” to 7 deserving individuals as penance for the seven lives he destroyed in a freak accident.

I’ve watched this movie on HBO and it helped pass the time at first, but when the movie was in the middle part the plot becomes obvious and sort of predictable that the ending will be a good one. The actors and actresses aren’t even famous but at least …

There is a good reason behind why I find it hard to like many of John Carpenter’s movies. I find that most of them are mediocre with inferior acting, terrible makeup, a silly plot, and even sillier script and so on. Thus, like many of John Carpenter’s movies, “Vampires: …

Let’s see, Tim Burton directing and Johnny Depp starring. There is absolutely no way the movie Alice in Wonderland would suck.
Wow was I wrong about that.
I didn’t see this movie in the theater for a few reasons and, after seeing it this past weekend, I honestly am glad I …

I am reviewing the movie, The Odd Couple 2, starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. There are two movies in this series, and this is the second one. The first one is, naturally, called The Odd Couple, and it features a very young looking Walter Matthau and …

I just became a member of Netflix Online and I absolutely love it! I have never tried Netflix until recently and have always thought it was confusing, but being able go online and instantly watch certain movies is amazing. You search through movies available to “Watch Instantly” and once …

Last 2008, my girlfriend asked me to take her to watch another feel-good love story starring Sarah Geronimo and John Lloyd Good. As I have posted in my previous reviews, I am a no fan of these kind of movies especially Filipino films.
The film was about Sarah Geronimo …

I didn’t quite know what to expect with this one. Cate Blanchett is one of my favorite actresses, capable of assuming all sorts of roles. Her role as a pedophile (essentially), teacher having an affair with one of her students was rather shocking. But …

If there is one thing that makes me really enjoy Tripping the Rift, it is the Dark Clowns. They are the best thing this series has going for it, and episodes which center around them are generally much better than the others. This one is no exception, …

Fear and Desire is one of Stanley Kubrick’s first full feature films, and it tells an anti-war story about an american squadron during World War II getting involved in the most horrific events. The film shows the absolutely darkest side of a war situation and does it without maing …

I was torn into two pieces by this movie. I didn’t want to see it at first because I thought it would be extremely stupid. And I believed this due to Sacha Baron Cohen’s appearances on television shows as “Bruno.” The character himself was not funny at all, to …

Of all the James Bond films I’ve seen, Casino Royale is by far the worst.
First, Daniel Craig can’t fill even George Lazenby’s shoes when it comes to the role. He’s not handsome. He’s not charming and he’s not James Bond.
The movie itself was even more of a problem. …

OK, prior to having a daughter, I didn’t even know Strawberry Shortcake had a cartoon series; let along episodes on DVD. However, I will admit Adventures on Ice Cream Island is a decent DVD to rent if you want your daughter to be occupied for about 45 minutes.
The DVD …

I actually didn’t pick out the movie “The Insatiable.” My daughter did. She didn’t watch it or anything. She was at the movie store with me and my wife told her to pick out a movie for us and it happened to be one on a shelf she could …

As far as advertisements go, I am perhaps the most skeptical. You would not believe my surprise at Blockbusters attempt at online rentals.
I actually love it.
I was already a longtime member of the video store chain. I tried the online rentals because it was a good way …

Good idea, very interesting form and … cheating, which discourages the viewer. Instead of shocking the movie, we deal with this really good, but unfortunately still not perfect art.
Intriguing beginning gives us hope for a great movie. At a time when we learn that it is based on facts …

This is a very confusing thriller if you don’t pay close attention to detail. It also shows what could happen in a mental institution that has a lack of morality and responsibility. This movie shows what happens to one such patient. He is convicted under cause of insanity for …

This movie really interested and intrigued me since I love swimming and everything outdoors and my husband was a licensed diver himself, and we wanted to watch this since we thought we could relate to the movie, and we did. The movie is called Sanctum and they say the …

This movie is simply disgusting. I don’t know what they were thinking when filming it? Hoping to spoil Christmas for everyone, and especially for kids? The mention of Santa in the title would certainly draw families and kids to see this - and they shouldn’t. The Santa here is …

The Corpse Bride is one of my favorite animated films ever. This movie really makes you feel the power and emotion in it. And with Johnny Dep playing the main character you know you are in for one wild ride. It was very cool to see some of Johnny Dep’s …

The Just My Luck DVD ended up in my collection simply because I had seen the leading lady (Lindsay Lohan) in the Herbie Fully Loaded movie and I liked her style so wanted to see what she was like in something totally different.
Just My Luck is the story of …

I didn’t get to see this movie in the theaters when it was released. With the DVD I spent my hard earn money and popped this bad boy into my Playstation 3. When it was all said and done I was pretty glad I didn’t see this in the …

Here is another dvd from my friend’s horror movie dvd collection. He likes old movies from the seventies mostly, and lent me this dvd which he said he was told had some good horror films on it. However, when I watched it I didn’t like the movies at all. …

Ehit is a online site that allows you to rent movies through the mail just like netflix and blockbuster does. They have a free trial that you can try out the service. They send you two movies in one envelope. I think the cheapest price that they offer is …

Well, we finally rented the movie Jennifer’s Body last night. As expected, the film was an OK movie and we got reminded of just how sexy Megan Fox really is. But, I have to say the movie also proved to be a bit of a disappointment.
The plot involving Fox …

I bought this movie after seeing it at goodwill for 25 cents. It was a VHS tape but since I had never seen it before, and I still have a VCR I figured for 25 cents I could watch it.
Yesterday I was kind of bored after doing all …
