The Rocky Horror Picture Show movie
Rocky Horror Picture Show is another cult classic movie that everyone loves to watch and everyone loves to dance and sing to! It used to be that movie theaters around the country would show the Rocky Horror Picture Show and the audience would shout out the characters lines …
Movie Transformers
Transformers was one of the most awaited films of 2007. And honestly, I wasn’t really that keen on watching it, maybe because I never was aware of the animated series in the 80’s. But because one of my closest friends really wants to watch it, I decided to come …
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
The countdown to the end has begun for Harry Potter fans around the world. My family and I saw “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1” a couple weeks after release, and couldn’t be more pleased. Unlike the previous films where the screenwriters and producers left out major …
22 Jump Street (comedy movie)
22 Jump Street was one of the movies that I looked forward to seeing the most this year. This was because I enjoyed the first one so immensely that I couldn’t help being curious about what idea the writers were going to use for the second one. Actually getting to …
Stardust movie
The movie I feel suffered from a lack of publicity. However, in my opinion, this was the best movie of the summer of 2007. Better than Transformers, Die Hard, and all of the rest that came out. The story is basically a fairytale told in modern …
Amazon Unbox
Amazon Unbox is the top choice for watching movies online. THere is special software to download to watch films, but that doesn’t take very long and it does perform as a special folder for the movies and TV shows you have purchased or rented. If you buy a show …
Surrogates (Movie)
I thought this movie was going to be good, but it is tastefully overexaggerated. The movie is all about people using robots as surrogates to live in the world, and it features Bruce Willis as Tom Greer, his wife Rosamund Pike as Maggie, Radha Mitchell as Peters, James Cromwell …
Star Wars: Episode 1- The Phantom Menace
When I heard that they were coming out with a prequel series to the original Star Wars trilogy, I was VERY excited. Everybody wanted to see one and we were finally going to get it. What we got is beyond disappointment. Star Wars Episode 1- The …
Empire Theatre New Minas, NS
We are often at this theatre, as we try to go for a movie night out together once a week. It is a very nice theatre and the location is great, in the heart of New Minas, on the main road, close to shopping and restaurants, and a nice …
Ice Princess (2005)
Ice Princess is one of the movies, I consider an inspiration for youngster and adult. It is about the struggles a student must overcome, in order to go through college or university. What lies beyond high school? One may either join the workforce or take the first step in …
Movie Horton Hears a Who
I am reviewing the movie, Horton Hears a Who. So, this is a Dr. Seuss story. It’s about this big, fat elephant named Horton. He’s generally liked by the others in the jungle. One day, he hears a cry for help. It happens to be coming from a tiny …
So I Married an Axe Murderer
I’m not a huge fan of some of his later Austin Powers movies, but I have always thought Mike Myers was a bit underrated when it comes to his films. That’s why I took the time to watch one of his first movies again; “So I Married an Axe …
Over the Hedge
I spent some time thinking about how to describe how good the movie Over the Hedge was. The best way I can think of is, it was so good, my 2-year-old actually sat quietly throughout the whole movie.
Centering around a bunch of wild animals having to cope with a …
The Truman Show
I had planned on going to bed early last night. But, I ended up staying up late anyway because I came across the Truman Show on one of our movie channels.
It was the first time I had seen the movie in years and it was every bit as good …
Wild Target 2010 movie
Failure of a hitman is not a situation that you could assess it as “funny.” However, it is perfectly possible in Wild Target, applying the opus of the typology “ordinary people put in extreme situations.”
Three main and unusual characters appear in this movie, a hitman who takes care of …
Terminator Salvation (2009)
Terminator 4 had lot of loud noises, cool sound effects and no redeeming quality whatsoever. This movie was one of the worst of 2009. Terminator Salvation, aka Terminator 4 was even more predicable that the third in the series. I am a big fan of Christian Bale, …
Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell)
Bear with me, because I have to type these 3 names because they are amazing. I watched Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell) the other day and it was super hilarious. There can never be a movie close to it, except for movies starring …
Saw (movie)
Saw is one of my favorite new horror movies. This movie is a classic in my eyes. It’s a very creative story and plot. Saw is very original and had some great acting in it. I really liked the villain named JigSaw. When I saw him speak on the TV …

Iron Man 2 (2010)
Iron Man blew the box office away in 2008. Now, two years later, Iron Man 2 has done it again with Robert Downey Jr.’s extravagant performance as Tony Stark aka Iron Man.
One of the thing I enjoyed most about the first Iron Man, was its ability to maintain …

Spotlight (2015 Film)
There are films that everyone needs to see, not because of the thrills, not because of the visuals, not because of the actors/actresses, but because they’re simply important.
Spotlight is that kind of film. It tells the story of the dark secrets of this world that people needs to understand, because …
The Mist movie
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 …
Cloverfield, movie directed by Matt Reeves
Cloverfield is a borderline apocalyptic love story that tells the tale of a group of friends who are at a surprise party and find themselves amidst a group of man eating spiders that are destroying the tri state area.

The film that launched the books of Stephen Kin into fame and had a similar effect on director Brian De Palma’s career, Carrie is considered by many to be a classic horror film and a perfect example of high school hell.
Telling the tale of poor Carrie White, object of …
Movie The Car
The Car is a very old but super scary movie. The movie was very good in my opinion. I think that the film really shows the kind of stuff that people really fear. I mean what’s not scary about a car that drive by it’s self and kills people? …
The Unsinkable Molly Brown movie
As movie musicals go, The Unsinkable Molly Brown is unsinkable. It’s a marvelously well done movie with Debbie Reynolds and Harve Presnell in the leads. As for being biographical on the real Molly Brown, many liberties were taken. We get a wonderful happy ending here, but …
Outcast, Movie
There is no denying Nic Cage’s indefatigable work ethic, although even his staunchest fans must concede that some of his performances are at best, curiosities, to be enjoyed much in the same way that people would regard bearded ladies in the Victorian Freak Shows of times past.
This film …
What We Do in the Shadows-2014 Comedy, Horror Movie
What We Do in the Shadows is a comedy movie. It is one of the most inventive and unique movies i have ever seen regardless of its extremely low budget. As a matter of first importance, let me tell you that this is neither a Twilight parody nor it have …
Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …

A face to die for
You know, sometimes the best movies out there are those that are made for television. Proof of that can be found in the 1996 made-for-TV movie “A Face to Die For.”
This movie has Yasmine Bleeth starring as a disfigured woman who is conned by her boyfriend into committing a …
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 …
Cars movie
I finally got around to watching Cars on DVD this past weekend and I’m glad to say, I didn’t waste my money seeing it at the theater.
Cars is a good movie and one that the entire family could enjoy, especially if you’re a bunch of race fanatics. How ever, …
Little Miss Sunshine
“Little Miss Sunshine” is an extraordinary comedy. It’s basic set-up as a road trip movie starring a middle-class family begs the comparison to National Lampoon’s “Vacation” or maybe even the recent “RV.” However, this film tackles far more serious issues and delivers it’s jokes with much more class and …

The happening movie
The happening was a pretty good movie. It’s about something happening in parts of the world where it makes people do weird things and eventually kill themselves. I thought it was well directed because it will let you know what is happening but yet it is not gory at …

SiCKO
As a liberal democrat, I enjoy Michael Moore’s films. While they are obviously biased, they are backed up with facts. But the bias is what the republicans mock. In this film, Michael Moore questions why Americans as a whole seem to have this deep-rooted fear of a universal health …
Audition (movie) 1999
This film has left me pretty stunned and I really need to watch it again. Yes, I think it is very good but it is certainly not to everyone’s taste. There is a rather famous, or infamous, torture scene that is truly agony to experience, but I …
Movie: Charade
Charade is one of my favorite movies ever and has two of the best actors ever: Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. I mean with the two of them, how can you go wrong? The movie is fantastic and of course the acting is great! The movie centers around Audrey …
