Paris Theatre, New York

The Lion King
One of my favorite animated Disney movies is The Lion King. It is about all the animals in Africa, concentrating on the lion cub, Simba, who grows into a full-grown lion during the movie. The story is very cute and touching. Beware though; you may need …
Season of the Witch (movie)
When I saw the movie “Season of the Witch” advertising early this year on cable, I definitely wanted to watch it, and I became even more interested in seeing it after I saw that the actor Robert Sheenan from “Misfits” had a major role in it.
The movie, which was …
The House on Sorority Row movie
I ended up watching a 1980s slasher flick called The House on Sorority Row last night. I didn’t expect it to be any good. But, it ended up being better than I thought it would be.
Basically, the film is the same as pretty much any other horror movie that …
The Bone Collector movie
Though I don’t like dark movies much, I watched The Bone Collector recently and to my surprise liked it. The movie starring Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie is a very nicely made movie. The movie through out which the leading actors do solve a case with very clever thinkings …
Summer Scars movie
When I first saw the cover of the dvd, to tell you the truth I didn’t expect anything higher than a movie which could only be described as b-rated. However, when I watched the movie I was more than surprised because I found it was actually quite interesting and …
Children of Men
To start off with, any movie that has Michael Caine saying, �Pull my finger� at gunpoint can’t be all bad. And Children of Men is not bad, but it sure is depressing. The story of a future Earth, where the last baby born was eighteen years ago, and now …

My Faraway Bride

There will be blood
‘There will be blood’ is a good English movie. But it is also rather sad to watch this movie because the movie shows the exploitation of the lower class. Directed by Paul Thomas, the movie is a grim one. The main actor has performed well. It is not possible …

One of the best animated movies that we had seen in a long time was the film called the Lion King. This movie takes the viewer on a musical journay starting at the birth of the the young lion cub.
The cub Simba is Mufasa’s pride an joy. …

This is one of my favorite comedies. There are a lot of funny parts in it. It is more of a girls movie but I know a couple of guys who enjoyed the movie. It was a great comedy movie. There are a couple of parts where Amanda Bynes …
Movie: “Bolt”
Armed with a unique plot, beautifully colorful animation, and endearing characters, “Bolt” was an absolute delight. I enjoyed every adorable minute of it.

Avatar 3D (2009, James Cameron)
I love this film.
I had heard a few grumbles about the ‘lack of plot’ and that watching 3D was tiring and made some people feel sick, and that the effects ruled the film and became too much.
Stuff and nonsense.
First of all, yes - the 3D glasses are not …

I went and saw this in the pictures. I have to say I was quite pleased. Everyone was going on about it and I thought it’s going to be really boring and stupid but I was wrong. I will admit it was not as funny as it could have …
Down to You (starring Julia Stiles)
I love this movie so much! Freddie Prinze Jr. is one of my most favorite actor and as for actress, Julia Stiles isn’t that bad too. Both of them simply rock in this movie I’ve watched before, Down to You. With a cool name as Imogen, Julia …

Paris Je T’aime
I love watching Paris Je T’aime so much that I have watched it for over 2 times. This is a special case movie, and it features about 20 directors to create a 5 minute film about Paris. That is great, I get to see 20 different stories …

Junebug (R, 2005) movie
Junebug is the kind of film that I really wanted to like. Centering around the son from a middle class family and his wife, this story unfolds easily and doesn’t really require much thought. I was actually disappointed with how dull this movie was. …
Bad News Bears
I was flipping channels today and came across the original Bad News Bears on one of the movie channels. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie and I have to admit it is much better than I remember it.

3 Ninja at High Noon Mountain Movie

The movie the 40 year old virgin

Clueless
Clueless, a hit movie about teenagers more than a decade ago, was one of my favorite movies as a teenager. This movie was shown at a perfect timing for me as a teenager myself during the 90’s. Its main character, Cher, played by Alicia Siverstone, could be a good …
Iron Man (2008)
Another interesting movie I saw this week. But if you wanted a superhero movie like Superman you will clearly not find it in Iron Man, because it’s the antithesis of the ordinary loser who becomes a superhero as a consequence of a truly extraordinary event(I prefer those if you …
