Shrek 3
Dreamworks’ successful Shrek franchise has more or less lived up to its hype with Shrek 1 and 2; Shrek 3, however, seems to fall short of the witty, fairy-tale spoof we have come to love. Although filled with humorous details and comical dialogue, the story is nothing short of …
It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown movie
Halloween is coming up in about a month and, because of that, I ended up putting a movie on my Netflix list for my daughter “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.”

Haunted Mansion (2003)
Honestly, I just find Nathaniel Parker cute that’s why I finished this movie and wishing I had been Marsha Thomason just to snatch that role. Yes, this is a funny movie but I was wondering why Walt Disney Pictures, or anyone else who has been part of making …

Falling Down movie
Michael Douglas leads an impressive cast in Joel Schumacher’s “Falling Down”, an interesting tale told out over the course of one day, as an average man embarks on a rampage as he tries to simply “get home”.
It’s an interesting idea, and an incredibly simple one, but don’t let …
The movie the bounty hunter
I thought that the movie The bounty hunter had all the makings of a good film. It had an interesting storyline and a few good actors Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler. However it did not come together. Most of the time I felt like the actors were looking at …
Cinema Paradiso (1988 film)
This film made me cry. Maybe because I’m prone to nostalgia or maybe because I’ve always loved cinema, and “Cinema Paradiso” (”Nuovo Cinema Paradiso” by its original Italian title) is both a movie steeped in nostalgia and a movie obviously made by a lover of the movies.
The story of …

Capitalism: A Love Story by Michael Moore
This documentary is characteristic of all of Michael Moore’s films-it is done in a sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek style. If you like his movies, then you will love this one, because his style and subject matter are up to his usual standards. For me, he always manages to make me think …
Fred Claus
I watched “Fred Claus” today with my family. It was an overall pretty good movie. I wouldn’t give it a ten or anything but it is worth watching, especially around the holidays and Christmas. It has Vince Vaughn, Paul Giamitti, Kevin Spacey, and Kathy Bates. You would think with …

Living in Oblivion
I’m not a huge Steve Buscemi fan. I’ve always thought he was better as a character actor in a small role than a lead actor. But, I got a chance to watch his 1995 film “Living in Oblivion” and was admittedly impressed with it.
I never heard of this movie …
Movie Gamer

Now, when I first saw the movie, …

Transporter 2 (2005 movie)
What is the aim of this motion picture? Where is the purpose? If you ask me, there are none. This movie developes waaaaay too fast, there is too much momentum. I find it hard to put in words how terrible this movie is. The original of this one overshadows …
Movie 100 feet
This review is for the movie “100 feet” starring Famke Janssen (Jean Gray from X-Men). I picked it up at my local Blockbuster thinking it looked like a decent horror film.
