Netflix
I did a free trial from netflix a while ago and I also did it a free trial for my cousin not to long ago. The movies took forever to get to me and her both. They are also a little more money than blockbuster. You also can’t take …
Sword master (Chinese Movie)
Sword master is a 3D martial art movie by Derek Yee. It’s based on a novel by Gu Long.
I didn’t catch the movie when it was out in the theaters as it didn’t attract me in anyway. I didn’t like the cast nor the plot(from what I understand from the …
The Money Pit
Movies like this make me shake my head and wonder, ‘What were they thinking??’ I am not alone in this, as I see, in regards to this particular movie: I saw ‘The Money Pit’ listed among 10 worse movies done in the 1980s in one online article. I had …

This was a very weird movie. The basis of it is a young girl, gets into a car accident her sister was in the car with her and her sister gets BADLY BADLY deformed from the accident. She goes through the whole movie trying to find out if her …
Independence day
Well, what an intriguing mystery on how the aliens (if there are) may look like was given a hypothetical description in this movie. Yes, it is possible that our technology here on earth may be a little rusty but perhaps those aliens could have done something about their …

The Hunchback of Notre Dame is about a bell ringer named Quasimodo, gentle and lonely of Notre Dame. Born to a gypsy, and horribly defected at birth, Quasimodo fell into the hands of the man who killed his mother. As he grew, he was confined to the bell tower, …
The Alphabet Killer
I came across an Eliza Dushku movie “The Alphabet Killer” on our Netflix Instant watch list last night and, because I have yet to see her in a movie I didn’t like, figured it would be worth watching last night. It also helped that it had Cary Elwes in …
Batman Begins Movie
Batman has been a popular icon for almost an decade. I’ve practically seen almost every Batman movie there is. First there was Michael Keaton in the firt one and the sequel and then there was Val Kilmer in the others, and then there is Chirstain Bale in this one. …
Movie Cloverfield
I am reviewing the 2008 movie, Cloverfield. It stars a lot of no names. So it starts with this dude asked to tape this going away party for this guy. He is to document what people say. So, he has the camera rolling all the time. Everybody seems …

Whisper A Horror Movie
M Moderate supernatural themes and violence.
Starring Josh Holloway
I will no tell a lie the main reason I decided to watch Whisper was because I am a big fan of Josh Holloway. (Sawyer from the TV series Lost). Fans of Mr Holloway will not be disappointed by this supernatural thriller.
Josh plays …
Storm over Asia movie
In this epic montage film by Pudovkin, the story of mongolian warlord Djenghis Khan is told, or rather, the last days of Djengis Khan. It’s a very complex and sometimes confusing story, but Pudovkin really found and perfected his visual with this work of art. The style these montage …
Sweet Home Alabama
Oh I love this movie ! The chemistry between the characters is apparent during the film and I love the story line and plot; the characters are round and not two dimensional, in other words there is a lot to uncover about the characters as the story moves on. …

The Amazing Spider Man 2 movie
When the first series of Spiderman movies came out in the early 2000’s, my husband and I were quick to go see them. However, after the first two it became more of a run on series rather than a well thought out movie series. It was my exhaustion …
Without A paddle
This is a great movie for a day that you want to just kick your feet back and relax, maybe laugh a little. It was really funny in some parts, other parts were just ok funny. I really enjoyed watching it, and bought the movie. I would watch it …
A Kid in King Arthur’s Court
I have seen a book entitled “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” in my aunt’s library at her house which was written apparently by the author Mark Twain. However, I have never made an attempt to read the book so I am not sure if it is related …
The Good Girl
I think this is one of the best movies ever to put into light how good an actress Jennifer Aniston is. I have always thought that she could act in movies and she has surpassed all comments saying that she can’t act and all that. Try watching The …
What Just Happened film
“What Just Happened” is what I like to call a sleeper film. Much like fantasy football there are sleeper picks which are people that perform much better then thought. This film is the definition of that. “What Just Happened” didn’t have much promotion, actually I …
Crank 2 Movie
OK well Crank 2 is not like a super good movie. But I can say it had lots of energy and action in it. Crank 2 really brings the violence the sex, the craziness. This movie overall seems to be very crazy and just a wild ride with not much …
Ella Enchanted
I love Ella Enchanted. There’s a beautiful cast for this movie and they consist of Minnie Driver, Hugh Dancy, Anne Hathaway especially and many more.
Anne plays the character of Ella and this movie is something like Enchanted. In fact, this movie was made first prior to …
The Proposal movie
I believe that Sandra Bullock’s ‘The Proposal’ is going to be a hit movie just like one of her famous movies ‘While you were sleeping’. The great thing about ‘The Proposal’ is that it is an easy going romantic movie which everyone will love. On a personal note, …

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 …
Quarantine, movie
“Quarantine” is one of the better horror movies that I have seen as of late. It manages to mix all the right elements, a good story, moderate violence, good acting, and a great setting that results in an excellent film. It begins with the documentary of a local firehouse …
Back to School movie
I’ve always though Rodney Dangerfield was more annoying than funny and his movie Back to School did nothing to make me change my mind about that.
Dangerfield plays a millionaire who decides to attend college to further his education and in an attempt to get some bonding time with his …
Twilight Drive-In Theatre Langley, BC
One of the biggest signs of spring in the Vancouver area of BC is the opening of one of the few remaining drive-in theatres in the province, the Twilight Drive-In in Langley. I have gone to movies there when I was a teen-ager, many years ago now, but as …

Boogeyman Movie
Another pitiful attempt in trying to create a horror movie, why do they even bother, it’s clear to see that they don’t have a clue about scaring people. This film is plagued with alot of misdirection or better yet, no direction at all. If this man is supposed to …

Coco (2017 Pixar Animated Film)
Unlike recent years, animated movies really dove down in quality. The Emoji Movie is considered as one of the worst movies ever made; The Lego Ninjago’s critical acclaim failed to match its predecessors’ wit; and then we have Despicable Me 3 and The Boss Baby. We did have The Lego …
Carriers movie
I have watched Carriers movie with my boyfriend. He is an avid fan of scary, horror, and suspense movies and I’m the scared one, but I still watch it with him. He was the one who suggested that we watch Carriers when it was shown last year. The story …

Doubt (PG13, 2008)
I have been skipping over Doubt on my Netflix list, because quite frankly, I couldn’t tell what the movie was about. And when I looked at the synopsis, I couldn’t really get a grip on the gist of the film. It seemed like some kind of …
The Pajama Game movie

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 Princess & The Warrior (R, 2000) movie
“The Princess and the Warrior” is truly a film that you will not mind reading the subtitles on. As a matter of fact, you may find that you’ve forgotten that this film is in German. Franka Potente stars in this film as a psychiatric nurse …
Eight Men Out
I am reviewing the movie, Eight Men Out, which was released in 1988. This movie centers on the 1919 fall of American Sports, when the Chicago White Sox threw the World Series. The film centers around Shoeless Joe Jackson, played by DB Sweeny; Eddie Cicotte, played by David Strathairn; …

My boyfriend and I decided to watch The Hunger Games on Netflix this weekend because we both read and loved the book and hadn’t seen the movie yet.
First off, I thought the character choices were great. Jennifer Lawrence …
House Of Voices
Speaking of horror and haunting movies, this one title, House Of Voices sits in the list of mine as being pretty boring and bland. I’ve watched it with my friends and if I’m not mistaken, this movie was before 2005 or 2006.
The story is about this particular woman who …
Aristocrats (2005)
I had heard from a friend whose taste I respect that this was a remarkable movie, so I decided to check it out. Well, it’s different, I’ll say that.
This is a movie about a joke — a filthy joke, a single joke, and one told over and over in …

MPAA Rating - Rated R for violence/gore and language.
Stars: Shea Whigham, Paulo Costanzo, Jill Wagner.
The film Splinter was recently released in theaters, and Comcast subscribers have the ability to watch it On-Demand in the comfort of their homes. That is what I did.
