The Wicker Man (Original)
I watched the original Wicker Man and I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. I’m not a fan of horror and although this was labelled as a horror film it really wasn’t. The ending was quite horrorific but the rest of the film was not. …
Jane Eyre,1996 Movie
Franco Zeffireli’s 1996 version of Jane Eyre would have been very good had he cast a different actor for Mr. Rochester. Don’t get me wrong, William Hurt who plays Rochester in this movie is a good actor, and he did a good job - but he just doesn’t *look* …
Bubble movie
“Bubble” is directed by Stephen Soderbergh. Soderbergh is the brillian mind behind such films as “Sex, Lies and Videotapes” and “Traffic”. Whats sad about this is that “Bubble” Is terrible. I’m not sure how a great director can go from hollywood blockbusters to bombing …
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
Gil Gerad returns! Yes, after 25 years since the original series went off the air it survived as a huge hit in syndication and on its Sci Fi Channel run. This was a classic adventure series will cool, campy overtones in the first season and then it …
The devil wears prada
This is a Meryl Streep movie, and like all of her movies she is simply fantastic. I find that Streep gives that extra input in her work that makes her such an extra ordinary actress. I personally compare her a lot to the actor, Joaquin Phoenix they …
Blood Monkey (2006)
This is a terrific horror movie that will set your nerves on end. It is filled with loads of suspense, terror and carnage. The acting is very good and the plot moves along at a nice speed, too. If you love watching movies about killer animals, you’ll really enjoy …
Old School the movie
I sat down with my mother, we were having a girls movie night. This girls night movie theme was comedy. Will Ferrel is always at the top of my list for comedy movies. He did not let me down on this one at all. I laughed during almost the …
Every Secret Thing (2014 Crime Drama Movie)
Even though the movie “Every Secret Thing” seemed to gain a lot of bad and mediocre reviews on popular sites such as Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB, I have to admit that I still enjoyed it. It was by no means perfect, but I think that there were elements of the …
Nightmare on Elm Street the remake (2010 Film)
While I never saw the original movie of Nightmare on Elm Street, I have to say that the remake was for the most part enjoyable in the realm of horror movies. This film also made me want to watch the original film so that I would have something to …
Mr. Woodcock, comedy film by Craig Gillespie
For the most part Thorten’s comedies are good, he tends to play a smart ass with a ton of humor. Instead of dealing with children Billy Bob is teamed with American Pie star Seann William Scott. With another funny man joining his ranks Mr. Woodcock is hysterical for only …
Strictly Sexual Movie
The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people. I also chose to watch this movie, mainly because I am interested in what the movie is about, given the seductive name. However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …

Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs
I received the DVD Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs for Christmas. I liked both the movies before it, and I missed seeing Dawn of the Dinosaurs in the theaters, so I wanted to see it on DVD. The movie is a continuation of the last two …
Speak movie
I am reviewing the movie entitled SPEAK, which was based off of the award winning novel by Laurie Anderson. This is a movie you cannot miss. Kristen Stewart plays the role of Melinda, who has been deemed a social outcast after she called the police at a school …
Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (comedy science fiction movie)
Honestly, I wasn’t very interested in seeing a “Hot Tub Time Machine” sequel almost as much as I wasn’t interested in seeing a Paul Blart Mall Cop sequel. However, a friend of mine claimed that he found it very entertaining and funny. I guess that would be the last time …
“In the Loop” movie 2009
In the loop is a political satire that is at times somewhat funny, but other times grossly overdone. The profanity is so extreme that it makes the film seem too unrealistic even for a satire. This film gives character to a hypothetical U S Government, and a hypothetical U K …
Harry and the Hendersons Movie
On their way back from a camping trip, the Henderson family hits something - or someone. What they first thought to be a large animal and then feared to turn out a human is actually a bigfoot, the mysterious apelike creature said to live in the woods. As the …
District 9 movie
Sci-fi movies for me are so formulaic. I watch one sci-fi movie, I can say that I have watched almost 90% of all the sci-fi flicks that were released in the past years because of it. Sci-fi movies with aliens are more predictable and repetitive. Aliens terrorize the human …
Evan Almighty
This is an amazingly respectful movie on a spiritual theme - respectful to God and faith. The title clearly hints on Bruce Almighty that had come out in 2003, but it is not a sequel; just a similar story. The similarity is made even closer with the same actor, …
Vacancy Movie
Vacancy is a movie released in 2007 starring Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale. If you think that combination sounds a little odd, don’t worry because so did I! I actually saw this movie while it was playing in the theater and I liked it enough that I actually bought …

Contagion ( 2011 Movie )
How do you fit 3 Oscar Best Actress in a movie? The movie Contagion is the answer to that. It is difficult to find Academy Award Winners in the same movie. Gwyneth Paltrow ( Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love in 1998 ), Marion Cotillard ( La Vie En Rose …

Film “Frozen” (2010)
I just finished watching this movie and I have to say I was impressed. It bills itself as a thriller and all you know about it from the previews and the poster is three kids get stuck on a chairlift and have to get back alive. …
Pretty Persuasion (R, 2005)
I didn’t know what to think at first about this really quirky film. I knew that starring Evan Rachel Wood in the lead role, there would be something avante garde about the subject matter. IN this movie, she portrays a young high schooler named Kimberly, who ropes …
Turner and Hooch
I love watching movies and one of my favorite actors is Tom Hanks. I can watch his old movies and one of my favorites is Turner and Hooch.
Detective Turner played by Tom Hanks, is getting ready for a transfer to a better job in a bigger town. He …
American Wedding
I just watched this last night even though I have seen it before, it still made me laugh. It lives up to the name of American pie and American pie 2. It’s funny throughout the whole movie. It also has the same type of humor of American Pie. Most …
Crimson Tide
Normally I don’t like war movies. They are OK, but they usually focus on blood and guts and really don’t have a whole lot in terms of actual plot. Either that, or they focus on a real historical event and I find myself having a hard time enjoying the …
Movie Bruce Almighty
Bruce Almighty with Jim Carey, Jennifer Anniston, and Morgan Freeman.
Since the concept of this movie appears to be original, I found it highly interesting regardless of the cast of star actors. What makes this a real winner is Jim Carey, who is at his …
E.T. movie
E.T. is the well-known film about an alien from outer space coming to the earth and becoming a friend to a couple of children in America. Steven Spielberg started to loose his touch from the 1970s with this film in my opinion and it’s clear he only ever made …
American Sniper, movie
Possibly one of Clint Eastwood’s most acclaimed directorial efforts, naturally surpassed by “Million Dollar Baby”, “American Sniper” is both transfixing and emotionally powerful in exploring the turbulent life of the factual Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper): regarded as the United States’ most brutal and lethal sniper. Opening with an intense and …
“8 Mile” (2002 Film)
While Eminem and Brittney Murphy, along with Mikai Phiffer are very talented, I have to wonder if the movie they starred in, “8 Mile” which was featured in theaters in 2002, was really a film worth watching. The film itself I believe was trying to do something positive …
Heat
“Heat” is an incredible drama/action movie with two brilliant movie stars sparking energy all the way Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. This is the first time Pacino and De Niro worked together after “The Godfather II”. What is also interesting about this movie is that it …
Music Box
Only Laurel and Hardy could take a premise like delivering a piano to someone’s home and turn it into a forty-five minute film. It would take stars of their comedic stature to pull it off, and they do it nicely. Stan and Ollie are deliverymen. They are hired by …
Eurotrip movie
I think “Eurotrip” was one of my favorite comedies which was released in my later years of high school. I didn’t watch it with my friends, but I remember watching the premiere of it on a cable television movie channel and talking about it with my friends when I …
Movie My Life in Ruins
I was lucky enough to see a screening of the movie My Life in Ruins, but I think I had to considering it was a romantic comedy and I’m a huge fan of romantic comedies. It was pretty much what I expected it to be, though I still enjoyed …

Candy Man
My wife loaded the movie Candy Man on our Netflix player about a month ago because she remembered watching it as a kid and she wanted me to watch it with her. We ended up waiting until the kids were in bed this past weekend to watch it because …
Dead Poets Society (1989 Film)
The 1989 film, Dead Poets Society, was an emotional, rejuvenating yet sorrowfully disturbing tale that left me both impressed, yet extremely sad for the main characters. If you are a fan of an elaborate tale about being inspired to enjoy literature as well as life by “Seizing the day” …
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
“Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous” is the sequel of the great funny movie “Miss Congeniality”. Sandra Bullock returns to the big screen after an absence of 5 years from interpreting the role of Special Agent Gracie Hart. Although most reviews give a positive comment about this movie, I …
Movie Toy Story
Although its not my favorite Pixar movie, Toy Story is such an important film because it started Pixar’s rise to greatness. Toy Story was made in 1995, but is still a visual treat for the eyes 13 years later. Toy Story is a modern classic that may be …
Paris Je T’aime
I love watching Paris Je T’aime so much that I have watched it for over 2 times. This is a special case movie, and it features about 20 directors to create a 5 minute film about Paris. That is great, I get to see 20 different stories …

HBO miniseries Band of Brothers
This movie had me gripped from the first episode, “Currahee”, where the introduction of the characters of Easy Company takes place, during their basic recruitment training. I enjoy watching war movies and have to say, Band of Brothers, was more than I expected. I was browsing for movies one …
