Jurassic World - Sci-Fi Adventure Movie (2015)
Jurassic World is an amazing movie. Fortunately I chose to watch this movie in 3D. In 3D, you can’t help but feel slightly terrified by the roars of the dinosaurs as they attack and wreak havoc. I was hooked the entire 2 hours of the movie and can’t wait for …
Never Back Down
With the current and ever-rising mainstream popularity of mixed martial arts, I am not at all surprised to see movies using MMA in their plot lines.
I only wish they would do a better job of it! Maybe use better actors instead of relying on “pretty”.
Never Back Down focuses …

Happy feet movie
I got this movie free as a gift. I was a bit weary about letting my children watch this movie because of the talking penguins. I am very happy though that I caved in and let them watch it.It is a very inspirational movie that the whole family can …
Road to Eternity movie
The second part in Kobayashi’s trilogy about Kaji is the best one in my opinion. Here he has been transferred to “the field”, right in the face of war. The biggest trouble for him is not to stay alive in the battles, but to avoid fights with his fellow …
Mr Brooks
Starring Kevin Costner (Earl Brooks), Demi Moore (Detective Tracy Atwood), William Hurt (Marshall), Dane Cook (Mr Smith), Marg Helgenberger (Emma Brooks), Danielle Panabaker (Jane Brooks)
The name ‘Kevin Costner’ attracted me when I was searching for a movie to watch. It cannot be too bad a show if Costner …
Happy Feet Movie
Australian Director’s Animated Comedy ‘Happy Feet’ can best be described as just a fun, somewhat funny, family comedy. Lets clear from the very beginning, that while this film did win the Best Animated Film Oscar, it is not exactly the most satisfying movie experience. There is not much in …
Fahrenheit 451 Movie
“Fahrenheit 451″ filmed in 1966 and directed by François Truffaut is one bad, boring movie. I am really sorry to say this, but it is. I had read Ray Bradbury’s book titled “Fahrenheit 451″ and I remember enjoying it, so when I saw the movie at our library I …
Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen Movie
I was really excited about this movie as the first movie was really good. I was also expecting more added characters here and this movie was more exciting because of them. The plot is about Sam Witwicky deciding to leave for college to have a normal life and to …
Girl Next Door (R, 2007) movie

In the 16th chapter of Hetalia’s animated version we finally get to know China, and he will tell the story about how he met Japan and how Japanese adopted some of the Chinese’s customs and their writting too.

Tropic Thunder
When I learned that the funny trio of Jack Black, Ben Stiller and Robert Downey Jr. was realized, I couldn’t wait to see the film. Tropic Thunder is a morbid fascination with contemporary warfare. It does not present jokes in the obvious but it shoves a jokey momentum …
Major League

The Good Dinosaur (2015 Film)
I have a really weird fascination for Pixar films. In the country where I live, Pixar films tend to show late compared to their release dates stateside. That is why I had to wait for a month or two to catch them in cinemas rather than watch a downloaded a …
Hangover 3 Movie
Misled by the trailer (it presents everything that is best in movie), I witnessed the incredible efforts of some talentless actors of turning a bland scenario into a humorous story that just might bring a smile or two. The movie does not differ from the mediocre comedies for American …

The Interpreter
I define “The Interpreter” as one of the best thriller’s of our time coming out from Hollywood. Without any doubt the director, Sydney Pollack has managed to include another successful movie to his chain of great movies, such as “Havana”, “The Firm”, “Out of Africa”, “Tootsie” and “Absence of …

Gandhi (1982)

Mr Brooks DVD
I have stated before that we love to watch movies. One of my favorite actors is Kevin Costner. I usually tend to watch movies that contain actors or actresses that appeal to me. So when Rob and I saw this advertisement for Kevin Costner, starring in a …
The Last Legion
I admit I only watched this film because I couldn’t imagine the actor, Colin Firth in the role of a Roman Commander. I just couldn’t picture him on big screen after watching him in the role of the prim and proper Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy of “Pride and Prejudice” or …

An American Haunting Movie
I don’t if anyone has seen the movie the An American Haunting but, if you have then either A. you were confused as I was or B. fell a sleep! I did both these options not because I wanted to only for the reason the movie seemed to just …
Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh Movie
It was because of Candyman why I avoided taking a shower for a week as a kid. I was afraid to be alone in the bathroom, much less pass by a mirror where I knew he would jump out and get me. I really liked the first movie and I …

Forrest Gump (1994 film)
The greatest movies are perhaps the different ones and Forrest Gump with its unique nature of storytelling, the absolutely original character and the randomness of its narrative definitely stroke me as such.
Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) has a coefficient of intelligence below the low border and a …
Those Who Hunt Elves
Those Who Hunt Elves is quite a funny anime that I have begun to watch a few days ago. The most attractive quality of this show is its humor which happens to come from how random it is. A sorceress elf named Celica tries to vanish an …
Murderer (starring Aaron Kwok)
In the movie, Murderer (starring Aaron Kwok) this talented actor has certainly looked more mature over the years. And he does look more mature than he already is in this movie with his mustache and all. Acting as a police, he has to crack a case that he …

Meet the Parents - (2000)
Have you guys ever watch Meet the Parents starring Ben Stiller before? It is super hilarious and this is the movie before Meet the Fockers, which I have reviewed not so long ago.
Ben Stiller fits the bill for this type of roles and this is the part …
Face Off (1997)
I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …
Where The Wild Things Are movie
Where the Wild Things Are was a truly disappointing movie. It was rambling and didn’t seem to have any direction.
I think the problem is that it’s an adaptation of a picture book. It would have worked better as possibly a thirty minute animated film. …
The happening movie
The happening was a pretty good movie. It’s about something happening in parts of the world where it makes people do weird things and eventually kill themselves. I thought it was well directed because it will let you know what is happening but yet it is not gory at …
