Movie The Terminal
The Terminal with Tom Hanks.
This is without a doubt one of Tom Hanks best movies. Though the storyline is unique and interesting, its success rests solely on this fine actor’s shoulders.
The story is simple. It is neither dramatic nor does …

Beneath the Planet of the Apes
The original Planet of the Apes was a unique movie that was both entertaining and made you think. The sequel, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, was still entertaining but definitely not as good as the original movie was.
I thought the whole story line about a race of mutant …
High School Musical 3: Epic Ending
Disney truly has outdone itself this time with “High School Musical 3.” It is a fitting finish to the entire franchise that spawned such fervor in the preteen/high-schooler-wannabe population, and I am very pleased with the ending. The theaters were packed with people of all ages to see the …
Evan Almighty Movie
I am sure many of you with myself included have seen Bruce Almighty , in which the well known Jim Carrey is an average Joe who curses God for almost anything and is given God’s power to see how simple it really is to rule the Universe.
Evan Almighty is …
Ghostbusters movie
One of my favorite movies was the first Ghostbusters movie. Even now, I think of it as a classic even though it has one of my least favorite comedians and actors in there, Bill Murray. I think one of the reasons why I appreciated it too was that, even …
The Hunger Games movie
This movie had gotten mixed reviews. The general consensus is that people who have read the book were disappointed, while people who haven’t read the book liked it a bit more. I fall into the latter.
I found it to be quite enjoyable. It was well paced, …
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.
However, I have to say, after watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I did find myself entertained throughout.
The good thing about this movie is it offers …
Gone, Baby Gone (R, 2007) movie
Ben Affleck is certainly not one of my favorite actors. But he just might have me on being one of the better producer/ directors to get behind the camera. He cast his little brother Casey in this gritty role of a private detective who has been asked …
The Last Picture Show movie

The story is set in the 1641 Germany, torn apart and devastated by the Thirty Year War. The war had begun as a religious conflict between Catholics and Protestants; now, on its 27th year, everything is too messed up to figure out what’s going on and who is fighting …

Mommy (drama movie)
Someone recommended the 2014 movie “Mommy” to me when we were having a conversation about rotten child characters in movies. In addition, I had also seen a number of good reviews about it on the web. Watching it however was completely different from what I expected. I was completely entranced …

Tschick (German Movie)
Tschick is a movie directed by director Fatih Akin based on a best-selling Young Adult novel Tschick (translated as Why We Took the Car in English). It’s a shame I cannot find a trailer for the movie with English subtitles even though the film is released with English subtitles. So …
Bedtime Stories movie
I love to watch light-heart, funny and humorous movies along with my family, it has been two months when I watched this movie for the first time, and I still love to watch this movie whenever I get time. This movie uses a lot of imagination to create …
Interview with the vampire
I loved this film, it’s one of my all time favourites.
I’m a big fan of Anne Rice and it’s so rare to like the movie version of a book but this film could not be any more perfect.
I thought they captured the darkness of her books wonderfully. They managed …
54 movie
54 is a movie all about Studio 54, the New York nightclub that was a smash hit in the 1970s. 54 is not a documentary and is more fantastic than real so don’t watch this movie if you are expecting to find out what really happened behind the doors …

I am a teacher, a kinder garden teacher. I watched this movie because one of my students brought a penguin bag and it was his imaginary friend. Mambo, was the bag’s name. I loved the movie, with such beautiful animation and story line. How just by a single mistake …
The Abyss
It’s an oldie but a goodie, in my book. The Abyss, 1989, stars Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio and Ed Harris as part of a civilian diving team hired by the military to search for a lost submarin carrying nuclear warheads. When the team, both civilian and military, are disconnected from …

Westworld Movie
Filmed in 1973, the movie makes a decent attempt of portraying the future where very realistic, human-like androids serve for entertainment purposes. Delos, hailed as “vacation of the future,” is an amusement park divided into three major areas: West World, Medieval World, and Roman World; each one is populated …
Little Monsters (1989 flim)
In 1989, a movie directed by Richard Greenberg came out called “Little Monsters”. Though I had not seen the movie until many years later, I still hold it as a nostalgic movie from my childhood that left me feeling inspired to open my imagination to the world around me. …
The Fox and the Hound 2 movie
I only just watched The Fox and the Hound 2 last night, and I was so delighted with it. I’ve been wanting to see it since I heard that my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, was one of the voices. I’m not sure why it took me so …
Movie The Vengeance of the Mummy (1973)
A totally demented Paul Naschy film that, to my knowledge, was the last of the shambling, old school style mummy movies featuring a rampaging, bandaged monster.
Paul plays the role of the Mummy as well as the Mummy’s evil assistant and he does so to the hilt. A very violent …
Elf
I’m still watching Christmas movies today, mostly because there isn’t a whole lot for me to do with everyone being sick and us being low on cash (yet again).
One movie that just came on that I haven’t seen in a while is the Will Ferrell film, Elf. I have …
“Jane Eyre” with Timothy Dalton and Zelah Clarke
I have seen several movies based on this classic by Charlotte Bronte, and this 1983 version starring Zelah Clarke as Jane and Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester is, in my opinion, by far the best. The plot is very true to the book, and the two leading actors were …
Taking The Lead
Take The Lead with Antonio Banderas, Rob Brown, and Alfre Woodard.
Right from the beginning, I began to mentally attack this movie as being hard to believe even though it is based on a true story. Banderas played a French dance teacher, yet his Spanish accent …
The Duke of Hazzard
This is another comedy movie from Seann Williams Scott, I like almost all his movie. In this movie, the Duke of Hazzard is starred by Sean William Scott, Johnny Knoxville, and Jessica Simpson. I like this movie because it’s full of silly unexpected smart things but do with …
Little Mermaid 2
One of my favorite cartoon movies from Disney is The Little Mermaid and when I heard that it has a part 2, I’m one of those who lined up in theaters just to watch it.
Little Mermaid 2 is another adventurous tale of our favorite mermaid, Ariel, but this …

If you have never seen Hot Rod but love comedies, then you have to check this movie out! It has a few of the cast members of Saturday Night Live such as Andy Sandburg and veteran actress Sissy Spacek, who plays his mother, and a motley crew of some of …
Valkyrie (2008)
I enjoyed Valkyrie more than most war movies. It’s a story quite different from most WWII films. I expected to turn it off halfway though, but got a surprise when the movie pull me in! It’s got good substance and a story to tell that few of …
Sleepy Hollow
Last night was probably the 7th or 8th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say it, I love it as much as I did the first time I saw it.
Johnny Depp has a lot of great films. This is probably one of his best …
Movie : Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog
I came across the short movie Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog a couple weeks ago and was intrigued enough to add it to my instant watch queue at Netflix (but not enough to actually rent the movie). I’m glad I did. The film was actually pretty interesting.
This movie, which was …

Chef-2014, Drama, Comedy Movie
The main word I can say subsequent to watching this is “Exceptional”. Jon Favreau is only a stickler in each field. He has written this movie, directed it and afterward nailed it as the lead performing artist. Subsequent to Iron Man 1 and 2, he proceeds with his splendid work. …
