The Last Starfighter movie
The Last Starfighter is a neat little science fiction story that is interesting and entertaining to watch. Robert Preston really excelled as his mysterious and colorful character of Centauri. I think I like his portrayal the best. He’s funny, and he keeps you guessing.

Stargate: Atlantis 501 “Search and Rescue”
Stargate Atlantis season 5 premiere was one of the things I was really waiting for. With all the spoilers out there, I couldn’t imagine how they will make it work. And oh boy, was it worth it.
The episode is an immediate continuation of the season 4 finale. The building …
Falling Down (1993) Movie
I tend to always watch Falling Down when it comes on television. I can always relate to film and literature that is misanthropic in its sentiment and, as movies go, this is better than most rubbish out there.

Nancy Drew
Nancy Drew, the movie is not quite there yet, personally to me. I watch this movie with my boyfriend just a couple of days ago, and I feel that this movie is like the start of a new franchise, but failing miserably.
The movie is crisply put together and …

Overboard movie
Overboard is one of my favorite movies. No, it’s not an Oscar winner, but it’s just a fun love story that lets romance win out over all else. It stars the real life couple of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn. Russell is a widower with four …

That Old Feeling (1997 Film)
A movie that combines love, growth, realization of the importance of life and a large dose of comedy from a dynamic cast including Bette Midler, is not a movie I would want to pass up. Nor would I think anyone else would either. The 1997 film “That Old Feeling” …

Rendition
“Rendition” is a great movie about terrorism and justice. This is a movie that touches your heart and makes you cry, but most importantly makes you think about the world we are living in. I truly hope that this movie receives several awards because it truly deserves it.

Shop Around the Corner (1940)
In 1940 Loew’s, a production company that ceased operation in the mid 1950s released the black and white feature “Shop Around the Corner” in English lasting 99 minutes.

Game Plan movie
Even though I do think he’s a bit overrated, I’ve always liked watching former pro wrestler The Rock in movies.

One Missed Call
After the ring came out in 2002, quite a few movie producers have tried to copy its success by tweaking the plot a bit.
One Missed Call does this as well. Too bad they don’t do a good enough job at it.
In theory, this should be a scary film. Whenever …
The Fountain, Darren Aronofsky Movie
What was the essence of ‘The Fountain’, the film work of Darren Aronofsky (requiem for a Dream) is this? Search will be eternal life or melodrama about true love? I think, after witnessing film, is a combination of both and is not too bad.
Stories run parallel between Tomas (Hugh …

Curtain Call,1999 movie
This is a very light romantic comedy, with a plot so simple, silly, and predictable that I think it would have completely fallen through if it wasn’t for Michael Caine and Maggie Smith, the two wonderful actors who save it.

With some of my favourite actors like Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen featuring as the main characters in the movie “50 50″. The expectations were high, because both of these had done exceptionally well in the previous movies.

Coyote Ugly
What is this movie about? I can answer that in two words: bar dancing. There is nothing else in it, really. No story to speak of, just a few events to get the main character to work at the bar - and then it is all about girls dancing …
Mr. Imperium movie
Mr. Imperium from 1951 was not a movie that I enjoyed overall. I just didn’t like much of it, including the ending, which I found to be depressing. Those who have read many of my movie and TV reviews will know that I prefer happy endings and …
