2 hours and 42 minutes is a lot of time, and if I am a productive person I would be able to do so much other than just sitting in my comfortable chair watching a german-language movie called “Toni Erdmann”.
Truth be told, the first 10 minutes is a real struggle …

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 …

Ok. I just saw Star Trek Generations on Cable last night and I was telling my husband how much I love and hate the movie. I’m a big Star Trek fan, hands down. I’ve seen all of the orginal Star Trek movies and Next Generations movies hundreds of time, …

I heard about this movie from my dad, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it because my dad couldn’t stop talking about it! He said that it was a really good movie… and he was right.

As far as wasted opportunities go, this film takes the cake. It isn’t so much a remake of the original film as it is homage to it as only the very basic plot elements from the original were retained and woven into an unnecessarily reworked plot that falls flat …

I like watching indie movies, and so I was excited to see this one even though at the time I wasn’t completely sure what it would be about. Thus, I sat up one night to watch it after hearing a lot of good things about the movie, which I …

From 1953, Latin Lovers was a fun romantic comedy about a woman with a whole lot of money she didn’t really care about. Played by Lana Turner, Nora Taylor would rather be in love than deal with her $37 million dollars. Persuing her is confident Paul Chevron, …

In Her Shoes made me like Cameron Diaz. For whatever reasons, I have never been impressed with this actor and just didn’t think that much of her. In Her Shoes changed my mind. While I still do not consider Cameron Diaz to be one of my favorite actors, she …

Coming from the mind of Neil Simon, 1968’s The Odd Couple was a pure delight. Simon created two opposing characters in Felix Unger, a photographer, and Oscar Madison, a sports writer. Unger was neat to an extreme, while Madison was the king of mess. Having these …

This is that movie about Rescue Swimmers from the US Coast Guard. From the previews I had seen earlier, I had expected it to be mostly all action - terrifying action among huge ocean waves. And the movie did start out that way. In fact, the opening scene is …

I first saw the trailer for the animated movie Zootopia when I went to the movies to watch something else. At the time I got the impression that it wasn’t really going to be anything more than a very funny children’s movie perhaps with one or two parts that adults …

I’m actually old enough to remember Roddy Piper in his prime as a pro wrestler and when he left the industry to pursue a movie career. As the movie They Live proves, he should have stuck to wrestling.
Overall, it’s not a terrible movie. Piper plays a homeless man who …

The Gospel of John is my favourite of all four gospels because, rather than focussing on historical facts like the other three, it goes deeper into Jesus’s teachings and philosophy. From the very beginning, it tries to explain the world through what later is was going to become the …

The movie was an adaptation from the novel “Der Vorleser” , which was written by German law professor Bernhard Schlink.
The movie garnered nominations in the recently concluded Academy Awards and won the best actress trophy to Kate Winslet for Best Actress. After watching the Oscars, I was really …

I think “The Hours” has most of the ingredients I deem necessary for a good movie. It is one of my favorite movies made in recent years. There is strong character development among the three main characters: Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman), Laura Brown (Julianne Moore), and Clarissa Vaughan (Meryl …

Dumb and Dumber is the funnies movie ever written in my opinion. The comedic timing is spot on and keeps you laughing from the first minute to the last. The jokes are all based on how dumb Harry and Lloyd who are best friends are. They are mostly simple …

I have been very lucky to find a DVD of an excellent benefit concert, recorded live at Warren Haynes 18th Annual Christmas Jam on December 16, 2006, at the Asheville Civic Center, North Carolina. DVD is recently released, on June 24, 2008.
Warren Haynes is a member of the …

“The Changeling,” starring the brilliant George C. Scott, is a ghost story filmed in the 1980s, and the scariest one despite its age. Unlike many contemporary horror movies that rely on blood and gore, “The Changeling” uses more subtle ways, which work much better. The creators of this movie …

The other night, my sister and I rented this movie to have a fun night in with junk food and a movie neither of us had ever seen before. It’s a new release, starring Lindsay Lohan. Julia Ormond is also in it, which was nice for me …

Starring: Jennifer Anniston, Kevin Costner, Shirley MacLaine, Mark Ruffalo
I keep waiting for Jennifer Anniston to wow me and star in a movie where she doesn’t act in the exact same way as her character from “Friends”, Rachel Green. “Rumour Has It” is not the movie to change my perception …

There are so many different versions of the Cinderella story out there, but “Ever After” is by far the greatest of them all, and my favorite movie of all time. What makes this movie different from the others is that they made the movie in a very realistic …

Can a goodbye be happy? Not just leaving each other for a “see you soon” time, but a natural parting. When everyone understands that they are saying goodbye to a part of their life, saying goodbye to a piece of themselves, letting go of their love.

One life, halfway through life, …

Blood: The Last Vampire offers wonderful animation, grisly action, and an awesome main character, but lacks in overall length and depth of what truly could have been a perfect title. Saya is on the hunt for chiropterans, vampire-like demons that are wreaking havoc on a military base in Japan. …

The Last Samurai is a movie about a man who learns the way of his enemy the samurai and grows to love their way of life more so than the way of his generation. The actors who play in this movie are Ken Watanabe and Tom Cruise among others. …

This is one of those splendid BBC adaptations that is almost as good as the original novel. The novel in this case is a work by Anthony Trollope, who is one of my favorite novelists, and I certainly wasn’t disappointed in this movie.
The story is about a wealthy young …

Easter Parade is a very nice holiday musical with a tip top cast that includes Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, and Peter Lawford. It’s full of good songs, including the title number which is, naturally, the centerpiece of the motion picture.
Oddly, though, I’m not a huge fan of Easter …

Hopefully you have loving friends and/or family members who have already warned you to stay away from this epic abomination, but in case you don’t-or if you are actually an adult considering seeing a movie whose very title screams “AWFUL!” louder than an atomic blast-DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE. …

Last week I watched a movie called Cry-Baby with my girlfriend as she’s found a fascination with Johnny Depp and this is I believe his first major role in a movie. To be very honest, my expectations for this movie were extremely low and I honestly didn’t expect …

A french artsy science fiction film in the same style as La Jetee, this time by Alain Resnais. It is about a man who tried to attempt suicide but survived. He gets involved in an experiment with time travel. The rest is for each viewer’s own interpretation.
Even if I …

I simply enjoyed watching the actress Diane Keaton in her role of clingy and over protective mother with the name of Daphne Wilder in the movie “Because I Said So”. The Razzie Award thought that she over exaggerated, however for me that her interpretation in this movie is simply …

Alice in Wonderland is a disappointing movie mainly because of the lack of an engaging story. Even though the movie will remain as an epitome of fantasy, Alice in Wonderland never grows up to become an amazing work. Tim Burton should have put more effort in interlacing the fantasy …
