Open Water 2
This is a surprisingly good sequel. What made it good was how it diverged from the original. The main danger in Open Water was the ever present threat of shark attack. In Open Water 2, the writer and director cleverly play on the expectation …
Killer Klowns from Outer Space movie
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 …

Nick of Time - Movie
What a bloody waste of time! There were a few reasons why I wanted to see this. First it stared Johnny Depp and I enjoy his work as an actor and wanted to check some of his lesser known films (there’s a reason why it’s barely mentioned). The video …
Sleepy Hollow
Remember this movie, Sleepy Hollow starring Johnny Depp and Cristina Ricci? Yes, the movie rocks so much that I love to keep on watching it. In fact, whenever my favorite horror movie fans buddies come over or I come over to any of their houses for a movie …
Superhero Movie
When I saw previews to Superhero Movie, I wasn’t really sure whether it would be funny or not. From the previews, I thought it would just focus on known super heroes like Superman and Batman and find ways to spoof them; a formula that has worked on some subjects …

B-Movie Classic: The Evil Dead
Way before the Spider-Man movies ever existed, director Sam Raimi made a film called The Evil Dead. This film, in no way, is a blockbuster hit. Evil Dead is a classic bad movie, which was meant to scare, yet at the same time, humor.
The movie stars a young man …
What about Bob?
I really liked the movie What about Bob?. I think Bill Murray was very funny as the character of Bob. Bob is a guy who has mental problems and has to go see a shrink. He also is very paranoid and scared of everything. I think it’s very funny when …
Candyman (movie)
“Candyman” was one of those horror movies that I remember watching back when I was still very young. I was actually too young to be watching something like that, and as a result I remember being frightened for a very long time. When I was much older though, and …
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 …
Resident Evil 4: Afterlife
Resident Evil 4: Afterlife was a very wonderful surprise for a lover of the video series like myself. The movie promised to be better then Extinction, but I didn’t believe that. I thought it would be another long, drawn out movie …

Another cheerleading movie. And a Bring It On one too. I believe that this movie might be the third one. So, my parents bought the movie Bring It On All or Nothing on DVD for my little sister. It was released on August 8 and they bought it the …

A Wrinkle In Time Movie
I was fairly young when I first picked up the book “A Wrinkle in Time” — but to his day, very few novels (with the ultimate exception of the Harry Potter series) have managed to match it.
The book is one of high adventure and heavy imagination — and, as …
Close My Eyes (R, 1991) movie
First of all, let the record show that I am in love with Clive Owen. He has this really intense look that he brings to his films. This movie is fairly old. I’d never heard of it before. And when I saw the subject matter, …
Hate Crime movie
Hate Crime is a movie that came out recently. It is little known, but should be better known , because it is a very good movie. First off, the movie was technically very well done- good camera work, good acting, etc. I always watch for those kinds of things …
The Iron Man 2 Movie
I was really looking forward to the sequel of the first Iron Man movie. I’m an avid fan of Marvel comics. I grew up with this stuff and seeing the characters come to life it just amazing!
The first Iron Man movie was perfect. I had my doubts about Robert …

Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All movie
From 1989, Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All stars Stacy Keach in the title role of the famous private eye created by Mickey Spillane. This is somewhat of a weird plot that has Mike Hammer being transported covertly to Las Vegas. One thing leads to another and Hammer …
Meet the Parents, movie
Ben Stiller brings this familiar romp to life along with a strong supporting caste including Robert De Niro. I Thought this film captured some of the better elements that occur when meeting a fiancée’s in-laws for the first time, and it brought something different to a genre where I …
1408 (Movie) Starring John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson
I very rarely like movie commercials however when I saw the one for 1408 I liked it so much I decided to actually buy it. Though Stephen King did not direct the movie, it was based off of his book. With this in mind I was fairly certain that …
3 Idiots (2009 Bollywood Film)
I am not really a fan of Bollywood/Indian films when I was young, but overtime, I was able to enjoy their weird incorporated singing and dancing which was truly their signature.
I am also glad that I wasn’t able to watch 3 Idiots long before I took up an engineering course …
Alvin and the Chipmunks movie
I hated this movie so much for many different reasons. One of the main ones was that I expected that they would have made a better movie for it being that “Alvin and the Chipmunks” cartoons would come on local tv on Saturday mornings and it was one of …

A Few Good Men
Another smashing performance from Jack Nicholson, whether he plays a good or bad character, he is always lovable. This courtroom drama is intense. Definitely a thinking persons movie. A drama worth the time and money spent. The staring roles with adequately placed and they pulled off a magnificent performance. …
Armageddon movie
WHen I was still a girl in prep school, I can remember one of the most popular movies of the nineteen nineties was the movie “Armageddon”. I would hear my friends talking about it from time to time talking about which scene was their favourite and how the …

In the Bedroom, movie
Based on the short story, “Killings,” by Andre Dubus, “In the Bedroom” is a smart film that can resonate with even the most emotionally closed off of people. This is a film that hits us all where it hurts the most: the death of a child. It’s a story …

Street Kings Movie
I’m not a big fan of action-packed thriller movies. However, when my husband bought this DVD and asked me to watch with him, I was impressed that it kept me engrossed right till the end of the movie. I thought that I’d have lost interest in it half way.
I …
The Return movie
Normally, when I watch a Sarah Michelle Gellar movie, I expect there to be a lot of action and a little bit of terror. Her movie The Return provided the latter but not enough of the former.
The idea behind The Return is a good one. Gellar plays a …

Movie Beowulf (2007)
This movie surprised me a bit when I saw it for the first time, maybe the disturbing regular nudity of the hero more than anything… anyway..phallic fixations, parent-child problems and low passions, is the new adaptation of the epic poem. Being the third adaptation of the story of “Beowulf” …

This film features Steve Martin, in a time where he was probably the funniest man in the whole world, as the brain surgeon who falls in love with a brain without a body (!) during a trip to Austria.
