P2 Movie
When I watched the Starz Saturday night premiere for this movie, I couldn’t help wondering why this movie was not promoted very much before and when it hit theaters. I believe that it was hands down one of the best suspense movies I had seen in a long while …
Premonition movie
I went to see premonition a few days ago at Cineworld Cinemas because it looked like a film that has you on the edge of your seat and because i think Sandra Bullock is a good actress.
The film is rated a 12 and lasts for approx 98 minutes.
A happy …
Hamlet movie
Shakespeare’s classic drama set in a modern environment, directed by Kenneth Branagh. I think it’s close to impossible to create a convincing film out of a Shakespeare story. Most of the times it just feels like filmed theatre, and that means one might as well visit the theatre instead …

The Air I Breathe
I found a certain similarity between the movies “The Air I Breathe” and “Vantage Point”. Both of them have a story where people who lead a complete different life style are related by an incident. It seems that there were many positive comments about “Vantage Point” and unfortunately “The …

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Movie (2010)
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010) movie is a pleasant collaboration between Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, who has been on creative fire since his “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies. I think that he’s given the family company just a slightly edgy, darker appeal without getting too violent, goth or …
Big Momma House 1 & 2
The films, Big Momma House 1 and 2 are a huge tribute to the bravery of the actor, Martin Lawrence. I believe that Martin Lawrence is one of the best comedians of our time along with Rowan Atkinson.
In “Big Momma House” we see Lawrence interpret the role of FBI …
Mary and Max (animation movie)
Mary and Max is a 2009 animation, comedy and drama movie directed by Adam Elliot. I recently had a great experience watching claymation animation movies, so I was looking for more. My search ended up on Mary and Max.
The movie proved to be a total disappointment. I hardly …
Alien Vs. Predator: Requiem
The second movie in the crossover film series once again pits Alien against Predator in a sequel that doesn’t deliver.
It’s hardly surprising this film doesn’t set the screen alight; the original was hardly a classic, but it’s a shame this time round that aspect that didn’t quite work in …
Jarhead
Jarhead is rated ‘R’ by the motion picture association of america with good reason.

Saw V (2008) movie
Saw V is the latest instillation in the Saw’s series not much really too great to say about it except that it does keep the story going. The series itself has kind of fallen out for me but the movies have become a staple of the horror movie genre …
Turistas DVD Movie
My first and primary reason I decided to watch Turistas is because of my love for the actor, Josh Duhamel. I really love watching him acting, and if you are trying to recall which one is him, he is the one playing Las Vegas TV episodes. The …
People Are Funny movie
In 1946, the motion picture People Are Funny was released. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because it went on to become a successful TV show. In fact, that host, Art Linkletter, appears as himself in the movie.
In a sense, the movie provides a background for the …
To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar movie
Attitude is everything, and in To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar, there is plenty of attitude. When I first heard that Patrick Swayze was going to be in this movie, I was surprised, but there’s a reason for everything Patrick does, and when I learned it …
Jackson Masters The Lovely Bones movie
I don’t think I’ve ever felt so uncomfortable and so gripped by a movie as I did in the first hour of Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones. Considering I pretty much knew what was going to happen, I’d say Mr. Jackson should get all the credit he deserves.
Truly a …
The Brothers Bloom movie
The Brothers Bloom is a story of a con gone wrong. Or in other words, a con of love. Mark Ruffalo and Adrien Brody star in this movie, alongside the beautiful Rachel Weisz. I always find her very beautiful and admire her beauty very much.

The Simpsons Movie
I can’t remember the last time so much hype surrounded a movie. With many convenient stores around America dressed in “Kwik-E-Mart” colors, a year’s worth of trailers and even a giant Homer Simpson next to the Cerne Abbas giant (both visible from space), it wasn’t surprising that many critics …
The Wedding Ringer - Comedy Movie (2015)
The Wedding Ringer is a Comedy movie that delivers- in parts. Often I was laughing really hard but other times the comedy got a little bland. I did enjoy myself and found the change on the classic ‘loser get’s the hot girl’, interesting.
The story is about a man named Doug …

The Lost World: Jurassic Park
Shooting straight of the gate, this movie had very big shoes to fill when everyone expected it to live up to the expectations of the first film. Sadly, this movie fell short of it mark with critics and the public.
Bringing back Jeff Goldblum to play Ian Malcolm was one …
Avatar (2009 film)
Making the highest grossing film of all times is James Cameron’s trademark ability in the moviemaking industry. Avatar indeed delivers visual greatness of unseen scope just like Titanic did in 1997. Truth remains that the visuals are not enough to make a movie Number 1 at the box office. …
The Company of Wolves (1984)
This is a unique werewolf movie based on “Red Riding Hood” and one I enjoyed watching. Angela Landsbury is the star and she does a wonderful job of playing the girl’s grandmother. Based on the clothing the characters wear, the story is set during Pilgrim days except it takes …

Straight Talk movie
Now Straight Talk is a movie with Dolly Parton that has some meat to it. It’s not quite the wonder that Nine to Five is, but Straight Talk is a good movie that has some real story to it.
Shirlee Kenyon (Parton) maneuvers her way into a radio job, …

Batman was Tim Burton’s breakthrough to a major audience, and captures the darkness and gothic aspects of the comic series in a remarkable visual way. Michael Keaton is solid as the hero but the great acting performance is done by Jack Nicholson as the villain The Joker. The role …
