The Quiet American
I had not heard about the movie “The Quiet American” until I had seen it under an actor’s imdb profile. Thus after reading the description of it I decided to watch it for myself since it sounded like something I would probably like. I think it also portrays the …
Napoleon Dynamite
I have met people who think Napoleon Dynamite is the most hilarious movie ever and some other people that say it isn’t funny at all. This is a movie that maybe is not possible to catalog either as funny or not funny: it’s really hard to say if it’s …
Sin City
The movie Sin City is the prequel to the film SIn City 2. I can remmeber that some time before it was released in the year 2005, I would hear some of my schoolmates talking about it and saying that they were eager to see it in theatres. At …

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
I’m not normally a Monty Python fan. I’ve seen his flying circus show and thought it was one of the dumbest things I’ve ever watched. But, the movie “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” is one of the better comedies I’ve seen.
Basically, the movie is set during the time …

Dragon Wars DVD
Dragon Wars is a movie that will be a hit with the pre teen, teen set and the parents who still love fantasy. It is rated PG 13 and definitely not for the younger viewers. The dragons get very nasty, as dragons will. It will be released …

I just watched the award-winning movie starring Kate Winslet “The Reader” and I enjoyed it very much because the whole movie was so in touch with the emotions. I have to admit, it made me cry a lot of times. Imagine being ashamed of yourself and trying to cover …
Immortals (movie)
I remember how excited I was to watch the movie “Immortals” when I first saw the trailer being advertised back in 2011. I had even made plans to see it with friends since I was so sure that the movie would be exciting and just up my alley. What …

Enchanted (Movie)
This movie was hilarious. It features a modern fairy tale story set in the present time and what I like about it most is that the famous and cool James Marsden (Cyclops in X-Men) is actually such a romantic prince here and he does a very great job at …
Iron Man Movie
Action movies aren’t always the types of movies I like to watch. But if my boyfriend can get me to sit down and watch them, then I will. Iron Man is in all those comics that he reads, so I wasn’t really interested in the movies because I really …
The Toll Collector (2003) Animation
‘The Toll Collector’ is an animation short, really short actually at only 5 minutes. But it is 5 minutes of haunting, poignant beauty and it has stayed on my mind since I watched it. This is a visually dark claymation, with the pallid, ill-looking white faces of …
A Mighty Heart
This movie, A Mighty Heart is played out by Angie, or known as Angelina Jolie. I have always respected her in the sense that she’s not afraid to play out roles that are scary or pretty threatening.
Like in A Mighty Heart, she plays the wife to a reporter, acted …
Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter
One of the first movies I loaded on my Netflix player when I bought it was the film Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter. I didn’t think I would like it but it sounded like it would be different and I figured it would eventually be worth a try.
We ended up …
Netflix
I signed up many years ago for Netflix. I actually planned to sign up for Blockbuster by Mail but there was some problem when I tried to sign up so I eventually gave up and I just decided to sign up for Netflix instead.
After all these years I am …
Definitely, Maybe
Definitely, Maybe is a movie that I think is fairly good. Not that fantastic, but doing pretty alright. Ryan Reynolds star in this movie, together with the very talented Abigail Breslin. Abigail plays Maya, a daughter that is very inquisitive and it’s fun to watch her questioning …
American Psycho (2000 movie)
“American Psycho” was one of those films that everyone else had seen except for me, but that I still didn’t intend to watch. The theme, the cult movie status and the lead actor, Christian Bale, didn’t appeal to me.
What made me change my mind was starting to read …

Nacho Libre movie
There are movies that make you laugh, and then there are movies that make you laugh. This is one of those movies. This has to be the very funniest movie that I have ever seen, and it is all entirely child-friendly, which is amazing to find in this day …
17 Again movie
I never watched this movie in the cinema, even after watching the trailer because not only do I think that the story or the idea of the protagonist reverting to his teenager self has been done over and over again and that I have seen too much of Zac …
Sisterhood of the traveling pants 2
I rented and watched the sisterhoods of traveling pants 2 today. I’ve never seen the first one but I understood most of it. It was kind of boring at parts, and I felt like something was missing in it. It is a teen movie so maybe that is why …
Harry Potter And The Half Blood Prince
I just got done watching Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince for the second time since it’s come out. I am a huge Harry Potter fan, I have read all the books and have seen all the movies up until now. The books have never disappointed me, and …
Movie The Descent
Normally, if a horror movie is made in Britain, I find myself bored very quickly. But, I have to admit the film The Descent was actually pretty decent.
I’m still not sure about the premise, a group of women bonding by exploring an unexplored cave. But, I have to admit, …
The Librarian: Return to King Solomon’s Mines
I liked the first Librarian movie “Quest for the Spear” so I figured I would give the sequel “Return to King Solomon’s Mines” a try.
It turned out to be an OK movie but it wasn’t as good as the original.
You have the same guy playing the Librarian. Only this …

Bee Movie
I’ve watched Bee Movie several times and still consider it to be a fairly well made movie. In some ways it is as it appears to be, a very family directed movie but I think most people would find themselves entertained despite whatever ago group they belong to. Jerry …

The Shawshank Redemption
To say it bluntly, this is my second favorite movie of all time (#1 is Raiders of the Lost Ark if you’re curious) and absolutely deserving of its current top spot on IMDB’s top 250 movies of all time. What is so great about this movie is that …

What I really liked about “Wedding Crashers” is the out of …
The Simpsons Movie
The Simpsons Movie is the best movie of the summer so far. It is full of hilarious scenes that will keep you laughing to the very end. As usual, Homer is an idiot, and Bart is a bad influence for children. Over all the antics in …
