Movie The Beast and the Magic Sword (1984)
After the box office flop of The Craving, Paul Naschy never thought he’d ever play the werewolf role he made famous ever again. Well, never say never because he was tapped by a Japanese company to make this strange “Werewolf runs amok in fuedal Japan” mini epic.
If the description …
Ghostrider
I watched “Ghostrider” with my nephew this afternoon. I had really hoped it would live up to the hype, unfortunately I didn’t think it did.
In the first place I don’t think Nicholas Cage fit the part very well, or at least his voice didn’t and I felt he …
Due South: Diefenbaker’s Day Off
Diefenbaker’s Day Off is the next regular episode of the first season of Due South, and it’s pretty funny. Canadian Mountie Benton Fraser tells his wolf, Diefenbaker, that he needs a license, but he’s having trouble getting one. It could be because Dief, as he’s commonly called, …
Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
Yep, it’s another teen movie. But it’s not just another one of those typical ones. Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is perhaps one of those movies that actually tackle something more than just the cliché jock/nerd romance. The story follows a recently heartbroken high school student, Nick O’ Leary. …
Ratatouille
Ratatouille is an animated movie about a rat called Remy. The great thing about Remy is, although he is a rat with a destiny to live in a dirty environment, he loves to cook, which absolutely needs a clean environment. This movie is about Remy’s journey to be a …
Zoom
When the movie Zoom came out, it had two strikes against it in my opinion. First, it was about a bunch of kids with super powers; something that has been done way too many times in my opinion. Secondly, it starred Tim Allen. I like his stand up comedy. …
Running Scared
I don’t really like the movie, Running Scared. It is too much filled with violence and certainly not suitable for kids to watch at all.
The movie is about the character Paul Walker (and he’s looking really handsome in this movie) trying to race with time to get …
Beethoven - The Pooch Pack (DVD 2006)
All five movies it says on the box, well as this box set was released in 2006, this is no longer quite true because to my knowledge there is at least one more Beethoven movie to date.
Having said that Beethoven movies are really good fun and easy viewing for …
Columbo: Grand Deceptions movie
Columbo: Grand Deceptions is not one of the movies I enjoy very much. While Peter Falk is always intriguing and watching him facing off against all the murderers is the joy of the Columbo series, some of the ones that surround the military or politics just don’t work …
Addam’s Family Values. A Movie
A few months ago I was flipping through the channels in a hotel room and came upon the Addam’s Family Movie. I honestly could not remember seeing it however it appeared that I had. I called my mother and she said that I had seen it a few …
Crank, Mark Neveldine & Brian Taylor Movie
The film in the form of actual action it is my opinion after watching Crank, Jason Statham movies. How not? During the 88 minutes duration movie spectators have given the treat of action for the action scenes without stopping, sooner and actually pumping adrenalin. There is no pretense in …

Captivity movie
Ewww to this DVD movie, Captivity. I really find it disgusting, and there’s a term that needs to be thrashed really; torture-porn or something. It is about this psycho kidnapping this particular model, Jennifer, played by Elisha Cuthbert. She is gorgeous and blonde at that, and …

Gidget (TV Series)
After three successful movies on the big screen, Hollywood brought the girl midget (hence, gidget) surfer to the small screen. It was the big break for Sally Field, who took on the Gidget role. It brought her recognition. It still bugs me that she sneers at …
Finding Nemo
Finding Nemo is the perfect movie for all the family! This movie has been created by Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Animation Studios and it lasts about 1 hour 30. At the beginning, when my 3 years old nephew ask me to watch it with him, I thought that …
What Lies Beneath
My daughter loves horror movies and convinced me to rent What Lies Beneath. She said it was a good movie, but I am not a huge fan of horror films. I decided to give it a try anyway. She wanted to watch it, so why not. I rented the …
Star Wars Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith
Now in my review for Star Wars Episode 1, I was pretty critical of it and in Episode II, I praised it slightly more but I still didn’t consider it to be that great. However, I have to admit that I thoroughly enjoy Episode III and I think it …
Movie: Shawshank Redemption
My wife and I intended on watching Last House on the Left last night. But, the kids were still awake and we knew we would like the movie better if we had peace and quiet. So, instead, we ended up watching the Stephen King movie Shawshank Redemption.
This was the …
The movie Deadgirl
Deadgirl is a little known movie that was released in 2009. It tells a very dark and horrific story, but manages to do so without too much gore. Still, the movie would only be good for a mature audience. The plot revolves around two high school …
The Reaping Movie
Hilary Swank is one of my favorite Hollywood actresses, so it wasn’t a surprise that I would the movie. It’s really dark and scary, especially since I watched it alone and right before I was going to bed. I think the reason why it wasn’t a hit in the …

Almost Famous - (starring Kate Hudson)
Almost Famous star Kate Hudson and in this movie story, you see her character being someone extremely ambitious and she wants so much to be famous. This is a time when Rolling Stone is in focus and remember Penny Lane?
Kate Hudson truly sizzles and it’s a story …
MacArthur film
I can’t think of general Douglas MacArthur without thinking of Gregory Peck and the 1977 film MacArthur is the reason.
Peck plays the legendary World War II and Korea leader in this entertaining, yet somewhat biased film. And, overall, he does a pretty good job at it.
I liked this movie …

Alien 3 1992 Special Edition Bluray Movie
While there was excitement in getting the first and second Alien in BluRay, I only got this one, Alien 3, just to continue the collection. Alien 3 1992 Special Edition Bluray is what I got. While I don’t watch it as much as I do the other Alien films, …

Einstein’s God Model (Sci-fi thriller Movie)
Einstein’s God Model is a Science fiction thriller film written and directed by Philip T. Johnson.
I really don’t know what to make of this film. It’s confusingly interesting, if you know what I mean. It doesn’t matter actually because I don’t really get all the science mumbo jumbo physic theories …
Halloween (2007)
When I think of all the classic horror movies that came out in the late 70s and throughout the 80s and early 90s, the one that always stands out for me is Halloween. For me, Michael Myers is the creepiest killer ever; even worse than Jason or Freddie Krueger.
So, …
Fair Game movie
A second rate action film with the model Cindy Crawford in the role of a woman who is followed by a seemingly crazy man. This whole film is an excuse for promoting Crawford’s career in my opinion, and that result is, not very unexpected, an embarrassing attempt of something …
Hail, Caesar! (2016 Film)
2016 has proven to be a dull year for movies. That’s just my opinion but at this point in time last year, we already got the super amazing action flick Mad Max: Fury Road as well as the state-of-the-art thought-provoking animation flare Inside Out. This year we got an intense …
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 Lieutenant Wore Skirts
The Lieutenant Wore Skirts is a lighthearted comedy that I always enjoy watching. Released in 1956, the movie stars Tom Ewell and Sheree North as a married couple who end up with their signals crossed. She ends up active in the military while he’s enduring a bad …

28 Days Later movie
Okay, they’re not zombies. They’re very much alive human beings infected with a virulent virus that transforms the most soppy and placid person into a homicidal, red eyed lunatic. They’re never referred to as zombies once in the script and the rules of this new movie monster are very …
The Man With The Golden Arm movie

The Spiderwick Chronicles
When my roommate rented this, I was expecting another Eragon, an unoriginal fantasy that rehashes the same elements that we’ve seen before. The fact that this movie was brought to us by the same studio that gave us “Good Burger” did nothing to squelch my fear that we …
