The Cell Movie

Claymore Episode 2 (Anime)

2 Fast 2 Furious
After the success of the original box office smash, the Fast and the Furious, they chose to make a sequel true to hollywood fashion, 2 Fast 2 Furious. This movie doesn’t boast of the original story line like its original predecessor. And Vin Diesel elected not to take part …
Movie “Dinner for Schmucks” (2010)
I had high hopes for this movie. I saw the previews and it looked funny, plus I enjoy Paul Rudd movies and he is the star of this film. Sadly, while his performance and the performance of everyone in the film was wonderful I found it boring. …
Movie The Proposal
Featuring two of my favorite actors, Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, this movie leaves much to be desired. The story follows a publisher, Margaret Tate who is Bullock’s character to hatch a hare-brained scheme to marry her assistant to renew her visa. Her assistant, Andrew Tate played …
Eragon (2006 movie)
“Eragon” is a film based on the fantasy novel written by Christofer Paolini and directed by Stefen Fangmeier. When I read the book I really liked it, so I looked forward to watching the film in hope that it would be as good as the book, but when it …
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy movie
I think the movie “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” was supposed to be based upon a novel by the same name as I think I remember my boyfriend recommending it to me to read. However, I never read the book and I only watched the movie. I can …

Spice and Wolf Episode 5 (Anime)
Spice and Wolf Episode 5 has Lawrence trying to figure out how to get Holo away from her captors.. He also has to do it without endangering his business partners.
This episode was really interesting and intense. But what makes it unique is that it’s about economics and …
Inherit the Wind
At the heart of this film is a powerful controversy, one that still inspires heated debates today. On trial in this movie is not just a teacher’s right to teach certain subjects, but our right as American citizens to freedom of speech and freedom of choice.
Certain characters, mainly townsfolk, …
“Inception” (2010 Film)
The 2010 film staring Leonardo DiCaprio called “Inception” was something that looked as though it would confuse me and leave me angry at the ending. However, after watching the film just once, I find myself hooked on to the main character of Cobb’s (DiCaprio) life as well as feel …
Easy A (Movie)

Role Models movie
Role models was a lot more funnier than I thought it was going to be. The movie has Seann William Scott and Paul Rudd in it. They face jail time but instead of jail they have an opportunity to do community service instead. They have to spend time with …
The Brother From Another Planet
If you’re looking for a really bad black comedy film from the 70s and early 80s, don’t hesitate to watch the 1984 movie The Brother from Another Planet.
Joe Morton plays “The Brother,” an escaped slave from a planet know as “Another Planet.” I think that was the best joke …
The Day After Tomorrow movie
This was possibly the best disaster movie I can remember watching. In fact, before this movie I had no idea that disaster movies could be great, since most of them tend to be b-movies. However, one of the things I learned from watching this movie was that good disaster …
Movie: Biloxi Blues
I am not a huge Matthew Broderick fan but I ended up watching one of his movies last night; Biloxi Blues; mostly because I was in the mood for a good war movie.
Unfortunately for me, this film just wasn’t that good.
I loved Christopher Walken in this movie as the …

A sort of b-production science fiction from the late 1980s about a war between humans and machines. The year is 2038 and Ganheddo is a place where all surviving humans have gathered to figure out a way of destroying the evil machines. A theme seen many times through the …
The Fast and the Furious 4
Today I just watch the new movie Fast and Furious 4 in theatre. It’s the sequel of the previous movie Fast and Furious 1,2, and 3. The story is not so different with the previous movie, it’s about catching the bud guy and always involved racing car on it.

Zhang Yimou’s 1991 film “Raise the Red Lantern”
I’m as accustomed to Western cinema as the next person; the majority of films I watch are either American or English-language international productions, which means that I’m used to certain styles of storytelling, not to mention cultural codes and stereotypes. Therefore, for me to enjoy a film made outside …
See No Evil (R, 2006) movie
Horror movies these days have taken the plunge–into the cheesy. I thought “See No Evil” would be one of those films. And to a degree it is. The same character set-up applies which involves a group of teens and a creepy old house. This time …
The Number 23 (2007) movie
I saw this more of an experiment to see if Jim Carrey could take on a serious role instead of his usual funny guy characters. I would have to say it was pretty failed in this movie. The concept was good but it just didn’t seem to follow through …
Vanity Fair movie
While watching “Vanity Fair” be prepared to see the actress Reese Whiterspoon with curled hair, the actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers with a strange hair style and the actor Rhys Ifans with dark hair. The people responsible for the hair styles on this movie must have had a great time …

Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix Movie
The first time I saw the trailer for the latest installment of Harry Potter movie, I was ecstatic. Yes, finally!
Well, after I watched the movie, I wasn’t ecstatic anymore, and it wasn’t because I just finished watching the movie. It was the fact that the movie deviated from the …
Cake Eaters movie
Ever since I’ve watched Twilight I’ve been a Kristen Stewart fan. So I decided to find some of her movies and I found this movie Cake Eaters.

Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the crystal Skull
With much hype surrounding such releases as Prince Caspian and Wanted, Indiana Jones without a doubt tops the list as the most anticipated and most wanted film of 2008 thus far, and perhaps of the entire 2008 to come. Was this mere hype that the man was returning after …
Movie Wanted
This is another movie that show Angelina Jolie action. I always like her act in movie especially in action movie. Wanted is directed by Timur Bekmambetov, this name sounds not familiar to me. This story of Wanted movie is based on a comic book miniseries by Mark Millar.
The story …
End of Watch (crime drama movie)
“End of Watch” is definitely one of the best crime dramas in recent times. Here is a spellbinding, action, cop thriller, full of good performances and rendering a strong sense of comradeship. It is also about the realistic, ugly world of crime and drug trafficking. As is the case of …
Movie Notting Hill
Notting Hill is an all time remembered British romantic comedy, which is loved by all. I don’t think anyone would say they hated the movie, I fell in love with the characters and so did everyone.

The Little Mermaid
The Little Mermaid is a very good movie from the year 1989. I remember watching this movie as a kid, and liking it a lot. This movie is filled with magic and romance. All the good stuff that makes you think life is great as a kid. The music in …
Movie Casino Royale
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. …
Inkheart movie
When I first saw the movie “Inkheart” advertising to be released in theatres I somehow assumed that it was supposed to be a fantasy film which starred the actor Brendan Fraiser. Therefore at one point I was even planning on saving some money to watch it while it was …

Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix contains spoilers.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is my 2nd favorite Potter film out of the first five, but just like with Prisoner of Azkaban it took some time for me to get adjust.
Here’s what …
Big Bad Wolves (thriller movie)
I think that the theme of Vigilantism never truly loses its charm no matter how many times movies are made on the subject. This is why I was quite interested in watching the movie “Big Bad Wolves”. I’d never seen an Israeli film before and I was curious to know …
Close My Eyes (R, 1991) movie
First of all, let the record show that I am in love with Clive Owen. He has this really intense look that he brings to his films. This movie is fairly old. I’d never heard of it before. And when I saw the subject matter, …

48 Hours
Lately, whenever you see Eddie Murphy in a movie, it is a family film. And, while movies like Dr. Doolittle and the Nutty Professor were good, they weren�t nearly as good as his earlier movies.
I finally got a chance to watch one of those movies this weekend; 48 Hours. …
King Kong Movie
Newness, Love, Adventure, Thriller, a comedy and more. King Kong has a newness to an old flick with dinosaurs and all sorts of prehistoric animals.
