National Lampoon’s European Vacation movie
I have seen all of the National Lampoon Vacation movies. Christmas vacation is easily the worst of the four but I think European Vacation is one of those movies that isn’t as good as the first “Family Vacation” or the last, “Vegas Vacation.”
That’s not to say it is a …
The Wild
I normally like Disney’s animated films. That’s why, when I saw their movie “The Wild” this past weekend, I was extremely disappointed.
Overall, the movie wasn’t bad. But, the plot did seem to be a bit re-hashed. It was almost like Disney combined elements of the movies Lion King and …
Particia Heaton
Particia Heaton is a very good actress who is best know for her role as Debra on Everybody Loves Raymond. I think she is a great actress and I became a fan of hers as soon as they show was aired. I think Particia Heaton is the best character on …
Rope (1948) Movie
I had heard that Alfred Hitchcock’s —˜Rope’ was not one of his best and it is sometimes even said that it is not very good. I gave it a go though as it was on TV recently and I actually thoroughly enjoyed it. I think Hitchcock is …
Hidalgo (2004)
I tried to watch this movie so many times before and it just didn’t appeal to me in any way, shape or form, but that was until I had nothing else to watch on cable one night and it was on, so I decided to give it a try …
Two Came Back (1997 Film)
The 1997 Lifetime TV Movie, “Two Came Back” was a large disappointment. Starring a young Melissa Joan Hart and Jonathan Brandis, this film was a serious flop and didn’t do much to capture the audience’s attention at all. While Melissa Joan Hart has been a actress that I have …
Annabelle (2014 Film)
I was prompted to watch Annabelle, after watching the conjuring and seeing the brief glimpses of the character in the movie, I was instantly interested.
When going in to watch this movie, I already had my ideas and expectations pretty much set. As with any horror movie, I was going in …

2001 Manics Movie
While watching the movie 2001 Manics, I couldn’t help but think that it was the ultimate B-movie which I was usually so turned off of watching. It had lots of sex, gore, bad acting and young people which is what most B-movies usually has, not to mention the lack …
Bells Are Ringing movie
I only saw Bells Are Ringing for the first time in this decade. I’d always heard about it when people talked about the great Judy Holliday since this was her most identifiable film legacy. Finally, I had a chance to see it and judge for myself whether …

In “How to deal” we see the actress, Mandy Moore with her hair cut short. Actually this wasn’t planned to happen but Moore felt that here hair cut fitted her role and decided to go for it without informing the movie producers. Although not very happy with the hair …
Captivity Movie
Captivity is an odd movie that I picked up in the video store because of the After Dark advertising on the front of the box. I assumed that the movie was part of the Horror Fest series, but it was actually an independent movie released by the same company. …
Happy Feet
Are you thinking about watching the movie “Happy Feet” with you kids?
When I was subjected to ad after ad after preview and preview of the movie “Happy Feet,” the scene was always set with music and an adorable penguin tapping his feet. My two-year old daughter want to …

The Georgia Theatre Company operates many movie theatres in the southern areas of the United States, and Virginia is no exception. The only theater provided in the Danville, VA area is the Danville Stadium Cinemas 12 (although I’m unsure of why the name is plural).
As the Danville Stadium is …
Robots animated movie
I love to watch animated movies, think they are really cool, and these days I can say that animated movies are getting more successful than the real movies. Few days back I saw a new animated movie called “Robots”. It was really a cute movie to watch. The story …
Nishabd
The sheer brilliance of ‘Nishabd’ should render all Ramu’s detractors speechless. He once again proves himself to be the master of the craft. He did it with the spunky ‘Rangeela’; his gritty essays on the underworld; ‘Bhoot’; ‘Sarkar’ and now with ‘Nishabd’, RGV once again establishes why celluloid is …

I don’t know most of the names of the characters in this movie I have just watched sometime this week, I Love You, Man. I do know that the guy whom plays the main character is the same guy acting alongside Phoebe in Friends. I only know him …
Old School movie
I finally got a chance to watch the movie Old School last night, when it was on TV. I’m not sure how much of the film got edited for television but I have to admit, it was better than I expected it to bed.

Usually I don’t like movies about football or any sport for that matter. I really liked this movie though. It has Denzel Washington in it. I think he did an amazing job in this movie, like he usually does. The movie was good because it had a very good …

What Just Happened? - (starring Robert De Niro)
Whenever there are movies acted out by Robert De Niro, I would make it a point to really help push the review of the movie. Right, call me biased or what, but I’m just in love with the man. Not love in that real love sense, but in …
Siegfried & Roy: The Magic Box
My boyfriend loves watching IMAX movies so much, I couldn’t understand why. And so, I have watched Siegfried & Roy: The Magic Box with him before.
I admit that watching 3D movies are fun, and I have lots of nice and funny experiences while watching. The joy does …
Away from Her
I actually went looking for this for this movie in DVD. The teasers made a compelling case for how Alzheimer ’s disease impacts the lives of people every day. Of course the movie came with the required outpouring of various Hollywood actors telling their sad tales of …
Film Terminator Salvation
More than anything, the trailers for this movie ruined it for me since they gave so much away. You knew going in that Marcus was a Terminator and you knew that he was a good guy who was never a threat to John Connor. But, the spoilers weren’t fatal …
Ice Age 3
We got a chance to finally see the movie Ice Age 3 (we were going to see it in the theater, but my wife was too far along in her pregnancy at the time). It was worth the wait.

Tale of Despereaux movie
Synopsis: A young mouse and his rat friend swear an oath to help a princess.
What I liked about this movie: While there were quite a few things I didn’t like about this movie (more on that later), I will say the film did have its moments.
For one, Despereaux definitely …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This latest installment of the Indiana Jones series is my least favorite because of several things. It’s not as fun and entertaining; Harrison Ford as Henry “Indiana” Jones is no longer as hot as he was in the “Raiders of the Lost Ark”; and I don’t like the story …
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg movie
A french musical by Jacques Demy, that is part of the french new wave movement of the 1960s. The dialogue is completely sung in this film, that is a love story about two young people and their passionate desire for each other. For different reasons they are separated and …
127 Hours (movie)

The movie, starring …

The Avengers (2012 movie)
The Avengers was, to put it lightly, absolutely epic. I’ve never been that interested in superhero movies, games, or comics, but this action film was incredible. The way the action blended perfectly with the story line meant that I was captivated for the entire time, even though it’s a …
Terms Of Endearment (movie)
Terms of Endearment stars two of my favorite actors, Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger. Debra Winger plays Emma, Shirley MacLaine’s character’s daughter. Shirley MacLaine is Aurora. Throw in Jack Nicholson as Aurora’s womanizing, astronaut neighbor, and you have the perfect movie. The opening scene shows Emma still at home, …
The Darling Buds of May
I had never heard of the British TV series “The Darling Buds of May” until I saw a DVD set available at our local library. Now that I have watched it, I can’t help wondering why this show is so little known; it turned out to be so good.
Based …
DVD Kippur
I watched the movie “Kippur” as part of my “trying to understand the Middle East” efforts. I’m not sure what affects watching the movie had on that, but it reinforced my belief that governments are inefficient and self-serving and that war is the supreme human lunacy.
Israeli Director Amos …
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 …
