Green Lantern movie in 2D, starring Ryan Reynolds
First off, I must say that I am a very big fan of the Green Lantern comics and have been for over a decade. The reader needs to know of my bias towards this film. Unfortunately, there will be a few spoilers, but I’ll try to keep them at …
Confessions of a shopaholic movie
I saw the movie recently, one early morning when I wasn’t feeling to well and I couldn’t sleep, and I must say that it actually managed to keep my interest and to somewhat distract me from my sickness.
Confessions of a shopaholic has all the classic features …
The Devil Wears Prada (PG-13, 2006) movie
It is now 2008, and I just now got around to watching “The Devil Wears Prada.” This is because I am not prone to watching films that feature implausible storylines with patchy endings, over-the-top soppy acting, and so on and so forth. But I was attracted …
21 (movie)
Don’t make the mistake to relegate the movie “21″ as just another movie focused on poker, because you will make one big error. The movie “21″ has the right recipe to attract audience from different generations to watch it because it includes drama, romance and hype.
The story of the …
Rush Hour 3
It lives up to the name of rush hour and rush hour 2. If you watched the first two and liked them you will like this one. It’s a great comedy. They are both hilarious in the movie yet once again. It’s also not just a couple of funny …
Big Fat Liar
I like comedy movie, it can refresh my mind and make me laugh. Last night I saw this movie, Big Fat liar on Tv. It’s a comedy and family movie, starring by Frankie Muniz as Jason Shepherd, Paul Giamatti as Marty Wolf and. Amanda Bynes as Kaylee.
The story is …

The Invisible Man movie
This James Whale horror story, that came out between the Frankenstein movies, is my favorite of his work. Chilling story filled with suspense and remarkable effects and terribly good acting - especially from Claude Rains as the invisible man - makes this a landmark in early horror cinema. The …
Diary of the Dead movie
After his belated return to his roots with Land of the Dead a few years prior, Romero turns prolific once more with Diary of the Dead; an interesting take on the genre with a hand held, documentary tactic employed perhaps most famously with Cloverfield.
It’s an interesting idea, and …
Gravity Movie 2013
There are movie screenings after which when I get out of the cinema I feel strange for a while. As if I’m in another world. Everything is familiar, but somehow different, strange. That is a clear evidence that I’ve watched something great and insightful. I have immersed myself in …
1408
For some time, I have been pretty fed up with the “horror” movies coming out. But I decided to take a chance on both Samuel L. Jackson and John Cusack, since they are both favorite actors of mine. At any rate, the story is fairly simple: …
Saving Private Ryan
This movie has one of the best opening 30 minutes ever. It takes you for the ride of your life in a realistic portrayal of what D-Day was actually like at the height of WWII. The brutalness and trueness of this first battle can’t help but hook …

“Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror” is so bad that I have to laugh… out loud as a matter of fact. This film is another one …
Bug
I really get the wrong idea when I first watch Bug. I thought it is some kind of a horror movie or something, but when in the end I realized that this story is something like the genre of ‘art movie’, displaying about life, people and their characters, …
Happy Feet Movie
I saw “Happy Feet” earlier this year after seeing commercial’s for it on TV. I had been told that it was just going to be a cartoon version of another penguin documentary. However, this was not at all the case! I really, really enjoyed watching the …
The Roommate (2011 Movie)
I knew The Roommate wasn’t going to be a spectacular film or even an original horror from the trailer, but the trailers made it look like a fun horror movie to go see with friends. Although the dialogue is terrible and the movie is extremely predictable if you’ve ever …
I Am Legend
Will Smith is one of my favorite Hollywood actors. He has reinvented himself quite well, from being a former rapper and television star to becoming an A-list movie actor. I’ve watched almost all his films (my favorite being The Pursuit of Happyness). So I was really excited to see …
All About Eve (1950)

Movie Nuts
Nuts has too much profanity in it for my taste, but otherwise, Nuts is a wonderful movie. Never assume because your assumptions may be all wrong. People wanted to judge Claudia Draper, a woman accused of murder. She was a high priced call girl, and that’s …
Double Team (1997)
A retired Government Agent is called back to duty when news of his last mission is put back on the open trail. With his extensive knowledge of the background of this terrorist that he failed to capture in his final mission, the Government once again has to come knocking …
The Green Mile
I have heard of the movie The Green Mile before. But, I have never taken the time to watch it because I figured it would be like another Stephen King movie/book; The Shawshank Redemption.
My wife decided to watch it again on Saturday though so I had a chance to …

Goodrich Canton Cinemas
I have never gotten good customer service at this Canton movie theater. On my birthday, I was directed toward the wrong theater and I ended up missing the movie I wanted to see. A couple ahead of us in line ordered tickets to a movie called “The American”, which …
27 Dresses
The other day, I gave in to my wife and watched the romantic comedy 27 Dresses with her.
While I’ll be quick to admit I actually enjoyed the movie; I was left a bit disappointed by it.
My biggest complaint about the film, which is about a woman who has attended …
Dead Like Me: Nighthawks
Dead Like Me: Nighthawks is a flashback show, and that confuses me. It’s really too early for a flashback show, but maybe Showtime was trying to get people up to speed on what was happening in the story. Usually, a clip show like this one is an …
Movie Four Christmases
Four Christmases is an excellent movie I saw in theatres. It is a romantic comedy, with a bigger emphasis on the comedy. I really enjoyed it and I think most people would as well. It is a great film to see with a couple, family, or with friends. It …
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 …

I haven’t been to a movie in a many years.The best invention in the world is the DVD player.I am the last person to see everything.Thanks to my kids they keep me up on the latest movies by bringing them to me.
I had seen the advertisement for Happy Feet …
Sherlock holmes movie
A few days ago I saw Sherlock Holmes in the cinema.
Sherlock Holmes in the old books and the stories were really a thinking man, and not so violent!
But in this movie he is. I have not read the books, so I can not say anything about it.
The movie was …
Lake Dead Movie
I plan on buying the entire run of horror movies from the Horror Fest 2008 series, but when they recently went on sale, I needed to pick out a few to buy. One of those that I picked was Lake Dead. Prior to watching the movie, I went online …
A Man Called Ove (2016 Swedish Comedy-Drama Film)
There are hidden treasures from the film industries of other countries. If you know how to find them then you are lucky. Usually, the best way to get started is to look for the nominees of Best Foreign-Language Film at the Oscars, they have a wide variety to choose from. …
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 …
The Cure (2014 movie)
One of the most astounding films I have watched in recent months is The Cure directed by David Gould. This film unveils a dangerous thought that has probably crossed some of our minds, if not all, at some point in our lives. Has the cure for cancer been discovered …
Robocop 2014 Movie, Director Jose Padilha
I am really happy that the new film from the series “Robocop” which reboots the series from the beginning, is an exception to the rule that I have found that reboots usually don’t work out as well as their original movies. This fantastic action created by the director Jose …
The Big Racket, movie (1976)

Movie Next
Overall this was an alright movie. It has Nicolas Cage in it who plays a guy who can see what happens in the future, but only 2 minutes ahead of time other than this girl who he meets…he has seen her way before 2 minutes. Jessica Biel plays that …
The Good Shepard movie
If you enjoy watching a movie that makes you really think were the story is going, then you must watch Robert De Niro’s movie “The Good Shepard”. I knew that this movie was about the CIA, however for the first half an hour I was completely lost on what …
Pretty Woman
My all time favourite film is Pretty Woman and I love to watch it over and over again. It was released back in 1990 and it is still as good today in my opinion as it was when it was first released. The film was directed by Garry …
Princess Diaries Movie
When this movie came out, Anne Hathaway was pretty young. She was playing a sixteen year old who has no idea that she is a princess in a royal court. In school, she is not popular at all. She has really frizzy afro-like hair and the only person she …
A Cinderella Story
I loved this movie because of my crush Chad Michael Murray, a very handsome guy in his own way..lol.
A friend of mine accompanied me to watched this film and because of this film she noticed that Chad Michael Murray is really a hunk.Hmm.I’ve got a rival already.
This movie …
Winter Passing
Winter Passing was a beautifully made piece depicting the life of a young actress who must come to terms with her father, who has created a pseudo-family around him. While incredibly well-done, the truth is I found it rather depressing. The relationship with her father heals, the discomfort she …
Love in the Afternoon (1957) film by Billy Wilder
Love in the Afternoon is one exceptional romantic story in the Audrey Hepburn filmography. I loved Sabrina, which was the first time Audrey and Billy Wilder had worked together on a film, so I moved on to the next. Firstly, I had the wrong impression upon looking …
Braveheart
THis is one of the most amazing movies of all time. If you are a guy, you must see this movie. It is everything a good movie should be. There is a great love story, plot line, action scenes, humor, and most importantly,,, Mel Gibson in his prime. It …
Wild Wild West
I’m normally a Will Smith fan and I think the fact he stars in the movie Wild Wild West is the reason I find myself enjoying it; even when many others think it’s a weak film.
I used to watch the television show with my grandfather so I know quite …
