Valkyrie
Valkyrie tries valiantly to be a good movie, but ultimately, fails. The movie is put together very well, with phenomenal acting by every one involved. Both the writing and the directing are equally great. So why does the movie fail? The story simple can’t carry istelf through a whole …

This is going to be one of those movies that you will be quoting from for the rest of your life. I promise you. I remember back in the day when it first came out and I thought it was hilarious. I thought I was the only one who …
A Friendship in Vienna movie
This movie premiered on The Disney Channel in 1988, but it is still one of the best movies that was ever shown on that network. Thirteen year Inge Dournenvald and Lise Mueller are best friends in Vienna, Austria. This is an amazing thing, because it is 1938, …
Erin Brockovich movie
I found it weird that someone was requesting a review on “Erin Brockovich” on here but I thought, “Hey I’ve seen that movie. I’ll tell him/her what I think.” Well, Julia Roberts is in fact very good in the role as is Albert Finney. It is a very well …
BATMAN (NEW)

Tyler Perry’s The Family that Preys
I don’t normally watch movies by Tyler Perry. I find the subject matter to be kind of trite. Additionally, it often seems like the sets are too artificial looking. The best of the best are always the stars of these films in terms of …
Carter’s Army movie
In 1970, Carter’s Army was released, and somewhere along the line it’s been re-released under the name Black Brigade. Now what is interesting to me is that before writing my review, I was checking out the credits and ran across the first few lines of comments someone made …

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003 Movie)
Kate Hudson is one of my favourite actresses and in this movie she appears to be a fresh face. Toggling between a hard core professional who would go to any extent to get her work done to a flirtatious girly girl who likes being pampered, she has done a …
The Reeds movie 2009
The Reeds is one of this year’s AfterDark Horrorfest movies, of which I try to watch as many as possible since they tend to be of a little better quality than most lower budget horror genre films.

The Women movie
When I agreed to take my wife to see the movie “The Women” my first thought was “what have I gotten myself into?” However, after watching it with her, I will admit, it wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be.

Show Boat musical
It took me a long time to actually get through Show Boat in one sitting, and while I agree it’s a classic motion picture, for some reason I don’t watch it that often. It’s another musical that features Howard Keel, and for some reason, his pictures are ones …
Dead Silence (R, 2007) movie
“Dead Silence” looks like it’s going to be corny and slow-moving. In some parts it certainly is. The plot revolves around the old legend of Mary Shaw, a ventriloquist who had her tongue cut out by townspeople. Of course her ghost comes back and takes revenge. …
Jumper (movie)
My fiance and I just got back from this movie. It was awful. Do not waste your time! The action scenes were dull, what ones there were. Annette Benning, I believe that’s her name, only has like two minutes in the film, which is disappointing because she’s such a …

Mystery Science Theater 3000
When I was in high school, one of my favorite shows on TV was Mystery Science Theater 3000. Yet, when they made a movie based on the series, I didn’t get a chance to watch it; until now.

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace movie
It looks like Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace took a lot of time coming. It was almost like the long wait for James Cameron’s Avatar, many years after Titanic established itself as the unbeatable hit. Therefore, when it finally came to the theaters, naturally …

Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …
Only Fools & Horses —“ S7, Ep1 - The Sky’s The Limit
I love Only Fools & Horses and I was so glad when a seventh series was broadcast in 1991. As long as John Sullivan can keep writing brilliant comedy I see no reason to say goodbye to the Trotter brothers. —˜The Sky’s The Limit’ is the first …
The Judge (2014 drama movie)
“The Judge” wasn’t really one of those movies whose trailer sparked much interest for me. As a matter of fact I didn’t expect that it would be very good even though it had some talented actors in it such as Robert Downey Jr, Robert Duvall, and Vera Farmiga. However after …
Movie: “Risky Business”
Tom Cruise had his big break in “Risky Business” back in 1983, and I could see why: the movie is the ultimate coming-of-age story, with all the expect twists and turns.

Coyboy Bebop episode 1
Cowboy Bebop is a legend that spawns new legends from within itself. The first episode is no exception but is a delight to read. For those not familiar with the series, Cowboy Bebop puts the title of the music style right on the cover, in this case, Asteroid Blues. …
Suspiria (movie)
Suspiria is a totally weird film, no doubt about that. I watched it because it was recommended as a cult horror classic and I was not disappointed. I loved the bright colors, the shots that were so psychedelic and keeping with the hip times, but sometimes Suspiria was a …
