Open Range
There are not that many western made these days and when you see one that is recent I normally like to see an actor that I appreciate.
I like Robert Duvall, and I like Kevin Costner and I adore Annette Beinning. A few years ago this western came …
Two Weeks Notice
It is so difficult to say who is the ideal on screen partner for Hugh Grant. We have seen him act with such great female stars such as Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, Renee Zellwegar, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Julianne Moore and Andie MacDowell. I believe he is ideal on screen partner …
Blade,movie
The original and still the best. It caused alot of controversy and it did not disappoint. You couldn’t tell if Blade was the bad guy or the good guy…but has was Baaad. Blade is a vampire who hunts vampires…an interesting plot at best. The action is intense and believable. …
Four Brothers
“Four Brothers” is an interesting movie with a good story to tell however I feel that the script lacks that extra something to make it gripping. This is one of Mark Wahlberg’s movie were although his interpretation was good, it failed to be as great as other interesting roles …

The story about four American armies on duty in Iraq. Cutoff from the last period of their duty to brought medical equipment to one of village in Iraq was followed by many tragic cases. Mental conflict experienced after returns to US is not easy to be passed. It is …
An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth is probably one of the biggest documentaries around these days. Certainly it fulfilled its mission of making people start talking an awful lot about global warming. Of course, the question is, just how true is it all.
Mr. Gore has a lot of problems in …
Johnny English (2003)
Rowan Atkinson’s reputation as a comedy actor is still as good as ever. What I can say about this movie is that it’s got good casting. They got John Malkovich on board. His French accented English is ridiculous but I think that’s more like it when …
Ghostrider
Nicholas Cage seems to make like ten movies a year. Okay, maybe not that many, but he definitely puts out like two per year. Three years ago he came out with Lord of War and The Weatherman back to back. I liked Lord of War but not so much …

The Big Bang Teory (Comedy)

District 9 movie
District 9 is a movie I bought after seeing it in theaters. I love science fiction-type films, and since this one contains aliens, it was right up my alley.
District 9 is a section set aside for the insect-like aliens that also inhabit Earth. It’s basically a slum, …
Alien Vs. Predator Requiem (AVPR)
I saw this movie today and found it to be a great movie. The script is rather lame though. For example, the whole towns power goes out and a lady goes to look for her friend and she says “Hello? The powers out.”, and when a guy says to …
Carlin on Campus
I had never seen the comedy show Carlin on Campus (featuring George Carlin) before. So, when I came across a repeat of it on one of the cable networks last night I figured I would take the time to watch it.

Dinosaur animated movie
Dinosaur is a great animated movie. This movie came out around 2000 or so. It’s most suitable for children or young teens but I think it can also be enjoyed by adults. I certainly enjoyed it. The scenery is breath taking. The animation is so good that it almost …
The Parent Trap
My mom purchased this version of the classical Parent Trap. I’ve watched it over a hundred times and it still gets me laughing. I don’t know anyone who hasn’t even heard of it or seen it. It’s just another one of those things that gets passed down generation to …

The Company of Wolves (1984)
This is a unique werewolf movie based on “Red Riding Hood” and one I enjoyed watching. Angela Landsbury is the star and she does a wonderful job of playing the girl’s grandmother. Based on the clothing the characters wear, the story is set during Pilgrim days except it takes …
March of the Wooden Soldiers
I never really understood the fascination with Laurel and Hardy movies before; mostly because I never got an opportunity to watch them. It was a popular dual before I was even born and, let’s be honest, it’s not like it would be the type of movie I would look …
Skyfall (2012)
Skyfall is an action film for the action hater. Wait! Action lovers, don’t turn away yet. It’s James Bond —“ of course this film has action. I’m saying it’s got more than just action. It’s got action and then some. That’s why I, the action hater, really enjoyed it. …
Movie: Superhero Movie
I had a chance to watch a couple movies yesterday evening before settling down for the night. One of the movies I came across was the film Superhero Movie.
I have seen a lot of “spoof” movies in the past and have had mixed opinions about them. Most of them …
Sunshine Movie
I haven’t seen any Sci-Fi movie like this one, it’s an adventure and a thriller movie as well and you can really learn a lot about just concentrating on the film itself, like you can learn a lot about basic astronomy and the solar system, and things like so …
WALL-E
When I first saw previews of WALL-E, somehow, I was not intrigued, although I do like most Pixar’s animated movies. But then I had stumbled upon some reviews of this movie online, and they sounded good, so we went and caught WALL-E when it was still playing in theaters.
It …

Mona Lisa Smile

The camera soars over the crashing waves of the English Coast and the eerie music swells, our hero begins telling us about how haunted these shores are; my skin starts to deliciously crawl and I pull my afghan up tighter under my chin. It doesn’t matter how many …
Congratulations, It’s a Boy! movie
Congratulations, It’s a Boy! is a movie I recall seeing back when it was released originally in 1971. It starred Bill Bixby as playboy businessman, Johnny Gaines. Bixby did a fine job here, but it was interesting to me when I re-watched it recently that he looked tired …
Tenacious D (movie)

Inglourious Basterds: Movie
Inglourious Basterds is without a doubt my favourite movie of 2009.

Pan’s Labyrinth
I haven’t seen many impressive movies on TV lately, so ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ was a real revelation to me. The first thing I liked about it was that it hadn’t been dubbed in English, so I could listen to the characters speaking in their native tongue (Spanish), which carried me …
Chicken Little movie
When it comes to being a good family film, Chicken Little falls a little short.
What could have been a great story about a chicken who tries to convince the town he\’s not insane when he gets hit on the head with a piece of the sky, turns out to …

Glorifying the American Girl from 1929 purports to be under the direct supervision of the legendary Florenz Ziegfeld. There were lots of showgirls in this motion picture to satisfy that Rockette feeling, too. Even today, the line of girls doing those high leg kicks are incredibly popular.
