This is Mel Brooks’s version of Count Dracula story, released in 1995. All I can say is funny, funny, FUNNY! Just thinking of it makes me smile. Leslie Nielsen as the imposing but a little clumsy Dracula who keeps messing things up, Peter MacNicol as an unsuspecting London solicitor …

“Dead Birds” is one of my friend’s favourite horror movies, and he kept insisting that I watch it, and so I did. Up to now, I still think the movie, which I believe is a low budget B-rated horror film, is one of the best B-rated horror films …

Final Fantasy is always famous for its in-game cg movie, but can we really expect it to be a great movie if it’s only a full time in-game cg without gameplay? Yes, Final Fantasy VII proved that. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children is the second cg movie done …

Mean Girls starring Rachel McAdams and Lindsay Lohan is one of my all time favorite teen and girl movies. The movie, which I saw when I was in my college, is a really a thoroughly enjoyable movie. It is a bit different from other teen comedies or girly movies …

One of my favourite movies up to a couple years ago was “Waterworld.” I didn’t actually see it back in the mid nineteen nineties when it was released, but instead in the early 2000s a little after I had seen the first Lord of the Rings movie. By this …

I am reviewing the movie, Rush Hour starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. In this first movie of the two, Chris plays Carter, a loudmouth, no nonsense, comedic cop. He uses his energy to track down drug lords and put them behind bars. He receives an assignment …

The movie stars Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler, each other’s exes from their short lived marriage and preceding short lived dating relationship. He is an ex-cop and has taken on a job as a bounty hunter in order to make his living. It just so happens that …

One of the movies I hesitated to watch for a very long time was a movie called “Bridget Jones’ Diary”. This was because I usually hate romance films and I heard that the movie was a romance movie. It also starred the actress Renee Zellweger as the lead and …

It had been ages since I saw the classic movie Village of the Damned. So, when it came on one of the movie channels over the weekend, I had to sit down and watch it again.
Somehow, it wasn’t as scary as I remembered it.
Even though it’s really never explained …

The 1992 movie “Enchanted April” is a charming, almost magical movie about four women who vacation together in a villa in Italy. Lottie Wilkins (played by Josie Lawrence) and Rose Arbuthnot (played by Miranda Richardson) are two English women living in England shortly after World War I. The two …

So I’m sure many of you have either read the book “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” either in your own time, or to your children. I myself, being only a recent “adult” can quite easily and fondly remember the days of curling up next to mom and …

War if a very exciting action packed movie that will litterarily keep you glued to your couch / lazyboy recliner for the entire duration of the movie.
Not only is the story compleately captivating keeping the viewer’s interest from start to finish but it also has loads of special effects …

I really wasn’t expecting much when I sat down the other night to watch the 2009 movie ANGEL OF DEATH. I have to admit that I usually have a bit of a problem with movies that have strong female leads characters as the film-makers usually get it so wrong.
…

None of the better adaptions of Victor Hugo’s classic novel about a human being who chooses the way of crime because of his tough childhood. Bille August directed the film and as with all of his work outside Denmark, there is only english speaking actors along, this time Liam …

The sequel to the zombie movie Resident Evil, which in its turn was based on a video game. Milla Jovovich returns as the sexy female hero who fights the blod-thirsty creatues with elegance and cleverness. The first film was in my opinion at bad as a film can possibly …

I’m fairly accustomed to watching subtitled foreign language films, where one mostly gets an education of Cinema’s roots. It is just now that new titles —“ notable ones from last year’s Cannes —“ have popped out way past the editorial reviews and hoopla spewed by publications. Le …

I’m not a huge Billy Bob Thornton fan so, when his movie Bad Santa came out, I really avoided watching it. However, it was on one of our movie channels the other day and, since there was nothing better on, I figured I would give it a chance.
It wasn’t …

I ended up staying up a bit late last night and came across the movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space. I have seen it before, but I hadn’t seen it in a while so I took the time to watch it.
This movie is one of the most suprising movies …

I am reviewing the sequel to Meet the Parents, which was Meet the Fockers. It came out in 2005 and starred all the actors from the previous film, in addition to Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand as Greg Focker’s parents. In this movie, Greg Focker joins his fiance’s family …

I really like watching supernatural horror movies, and so when I read a number of good reviews about “The Conjuring 2″ I was very eager to see it. This was especially since the prequel had managed to scare me quite a bit. I watched the movie and I found out …

This movie is based very loosely on 12th Night by Shakespeare. I watched the actual movie 12th Night first so when I saw She’s the Man, I put it together that it was based on it. Basically this movie is about this pair of twins, a boy and a …

One morning an ordinary man wakes up and realizes he is the only alive on earth. Almost the only one, at least.
A production from New Zeeland from the same director who did the studid sequel to Under Siege with Steven Seagal, and that can be noticed here. This film …

When Steve Martin re-did the Pink Panther movie, I thought his performance was actually better than the original. But, that wasn’t the only movie I can say that about.
When I was younger, I remember watching re-runs of the Phil Silvers Show and his character Sgt. Bilko. In the movie …

The Dinosaur Hunter with Simon McCorkindale.
This movie actually angered me. It gave us an alluring title, but then lied to the viewer. It was not about hunting dinosaurs and had so little action that I found myself playing solitaire while watching it.
…

Autopsy is a film from After Dark, aka the famous After Dark Horrorfest films that release “8 films to die for” every year for the last few years. I generally find their films to be of better quality than the usual“B”horror movies that are available. This one …

I don’t remember seeing Sharknado 2 advertise, but when I saw the trailer for its prequel Sharknado for the very first time I was convinced the entire thing had to be a joke or one of those bad Syfy movies even with all the so-called rave reviews it had …

I am reviewing the movie, My First Wedding, starring British heart throb Kenny Doughtry and the main actress from She’s All That. Kenny Doughtry plays Father Nick. Doughtry’s character is really a church carpenter, but one day a woman mistakes him for a priest when he is …

Whenever there are movies acted out by Robert De Niro, I would make it a point to really help push the review of the movie. Right, call me biased or what, but I’m just in love with the man. Not love in that real love sense, but in …

Based on one of my favourite novels ever, Mrs. Dalloway, by Virginia Woolf, this movie explores the inner world of three different women, living in three different times. They’re all connected to eachother somehow, the first being none other than the writer, Virginia Woolf (played by Nicole Kidman), who …

I can quite honestly say that “The Mist” was the best horror film I have seen all year.
The acting was spectacular, the casting was great and the script was magical. I was actually quite surprised because in my opinion the horror industry has been lacking in the last …

I had no idea that there was a sequel to “Westworld”, possibly because it wasn’t all that it was cooked up to be, perhaps? Oh wait a minute, actually, it really isn’t what it’s …

Double Indemnity is the story of an insurance salesman who tries to use the actions of a beautiful woman to receive death insurance from her husband by killing him. Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwick play the leading roles in this chilling noir film by Billy Wilder, originally a novel …

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 …

Filmmaking is a medium that should transcend people into experiences rare in reality. Magic is one way to describe this art. The images are meticulously planned that the frames almost look surreal and incalculably rich and Andrea Arnold knows this secret so she magisterially created a piece of cinema that …

A silent classic by Sergei Eisenstein in which a factory of workers is putting up a strike when one of their fellows is savagely killed by soldiers. This montage-tecnique these russians directors used was a remarkable cinematic achievement that all of the world were a amazed by, and many …

For me, it is hard to see what the problem is or was with Fantasia. Most critics hated it back in 1940, especially classical music enthusiasts. They felt Disney animators butchered a beautiful art form. How naive is that? The animation was fantastic and, I felt, only …

Valentine’s day was pretty much set up to do great, from its very release. The cast they had was just ridiculous in size and talent. It ranges from Julia Roberts to Taylor Swift in the most experienced actors to ones with very little experience.
The story itself is very …

A screwball comedy by Mel Brooks, and if …

Serious readers of literature would recognize Bonsai as the quaint novella from Chile that endeared the author Alejandro Zambra to literary critics in the west and transformed him to an eminent writer in his home turf. I had been an avid reader of Literature in Translation —“ foreign …

Read on at the risk of spoilers.
For those of you who believed that ‘The Avengers’ and ‘The Amazing Spiderman’ would be strong competition for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ I’m sorry, but you could not be more wrong. The other two films were good, but this was on a whole …

When I first heard of the movie Twilight, I did not know of the book, and it was just a little before the first movie came out. Thus, my cousin gave me a brief synopsis on what the book was about, and from that synopsis I thought that movie …
