I was really excited about this movie as the first movie was really good. I was also expecting more added characters here and this movie was more exciting because of them. The plot is about Sam Witwicky deciding to leave for college to have a normal life and to …
Sidekicks (movie)
Back when I was in karate and beginning to lose interest, my dad bought me the movie Sidekicks, with Chuck Norris. I really enjoyed the movie and it definitely renewed my interest in martial arts, and hence I stayed in the sport until I was about 14.
What was great …
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
With hollywood turning every comic book into a movie that they can find, quality has some how taken a back seat. I’m not sure why these hollywood mega moguls would sacrifice putting out a good movie. It’s not like they need the money afterall. But nonetheless, quality is put …
Batman v Superman - Dawn of Justice Ultimate Edition (2016 Film)
I have seen the theatrical cut of Batman v Superman when it premiered last March but I walked away at the cinema with the feeling of incompleteness. I literally followed the production of the film since it was announced and I was hoping it would have paid off, but alas, …

The Music Man
Who can forget the wonderful song, 76 Trombones? Not me, and that’s why The Music Man is so memorable. I do love this movie, although I’m not all that hooked on the chemistry of Robert Preston and Shirley Jones. Both are great in their roles, and …

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
This was my favorite of the Original Trilogy. If you think of the three earlier films as one complete story, then Empire is the all-important second act. I like this film for several reasons.
First, it expanded on the Star Wars Universe introduced in A New Hope. This meant new …
Welcome to Collinwood movie
A small time crook named Cosimo is desperate to get out of prison and arranges for his girlfriend to find a replacement for him. Problems occur when this replacement only is willing to do it if he receives a considerable amount of money.
This is actually a pretty entertaining and …
‘Keg on My Coffin’, a song by The Push Stars
The year 2004 was a great year for awesome music. It was also the same year that I become aware of a relatively unknown, independent recording group known as The Push Stars. Their song ‘Keg on the Coffin’ was receiving extensive radio play on Alabama airwaves by indie recording …

Chappie Movie (2015)
Chappie is an excellent follow-up to District 9 and Elysium and is one of the better transhuminism films that are out today. It delivers complex ideas about molding the human mind and also attempts to imagine the possibilities of artificial intelligence.
First of all, this movie will tug at your …
Devdas movie
One of the most expensive Bollywood movies ever. I am not a very big fan of indian films, but perhaps that is because I didn’t see that many yet, I’m not sure. Devdas is about a man who returns to India after a long exile abroad, falls in love …
Movie Man of the Year
I wasn’t sure what to think when they cast Robin Williams as a presidential candidate in the movie Man of the Year. But, after watching the film last night, I do think it is better than I expected it to be; though I’m not sure its his best film.
Williams …
Strange Wilderness (starring Steve Zahn)
I went to watch Strange Wilderness before with my best friend and we were just choosing it at random. The cast is pretty unknown to us except for Steve Zahn, which I couldn’t quite put a name to him. And if you are trying to find Bigfoot, you …
Movie Cleopatra
In my opinion, the movie Cleopatra was outstanding and exciting till the last moment. The movie was broke into joyful sections, melancholy sections, and humorous sections. One of the humorous sections was when the Egyptian fleet was set on fire by Caesar; Cleopatra instantly went to meet him. Caesar …
The stupids
The stupids is my personal favorite comedy. It is one of the most demented and funniest movies I’ve ever seen. This movie stars Tom Arnold (just to give you an idea of what kind of movie this is) as Mr. Stupid someone who is convinced that someone is stealing …
Ice Age 4 Continental Drift 2012 Movie
I will be one of the first people to say that when I saw the preview for Ice Age 4 Continental Drift released in 2012, I thought —˜Oh No, not another one!’ Not that I didn’t like the first three because I did. I loved them. I was just …
Howl’s Moving Castle
“Howl’s Moving Castle” did not take a step forward for Studio Ghibli. The Japanese animation studio is renowned for excellent story
telling, and stunning animation, but this latest film is not quite an advancement. Past films like “My Neighbor Totoro,” “Ponpoko,” “Kiki’s
Delvery service” and “Spirited Away,” each brought more creative …
Movie He’s just not that into you
All of us girls were so keen to watch he’s just not that into you, I guess subconsciously us though maybe it will brush some light on watch guys really think.

A Little Princess
A Little Princess is a movie made in 1995 that stares Liesel Matthews, Eleanor Bron and Liam Cunningham. This is a family movie which has an exceptional sweet and sad story. It would be one of the all time best I have seen.

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
OK, maybe it’s because I’ve never read the comic book but this is probably the tenth time I’ve tried to watch the movie League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and, try as I might, I just can’t seem to get through the entire movie.
I’m sure the concept of a crime fighting …
Something New movie
“Something New” is an interesting movie which explores a relationship between a black woman and a white man. What I really liked about this movie is the intelligent way by which it presented the story within a simple and straight forward context and, at the same time, ensuring to …
One Missed Call (PG-13, 2008) movie
How laughable this film was. I am almost ashamed to admit that I rented it from Netflix. Usually, I will see the Asian original before seeing the Americanized version. This is one instance where I wish I had. For the most part, the …
Erin Brokovich
I have adored Julia Roberts since Pretty Woman and Sleeping with the Enemy. I had seen Erin Brokovich when I was in my teens and although I enjoyed the movie, I did not really understood it. I had an opportunity to watch it during my own free time and …

Todd Sweeny
Remember Rick Morranis in Little Shop of Horrors? Well take a twisted theme, subtract the alien plant, and add a pyschodic barbor and you’ve got Tim Burton’s Todd Sweeny. The movie was a bit fruity with it being a complete musical, but the plot is there. Tim Burton must …
Forbidden Kingdom
I’m a big fan of action films and martial arts movies. I was very excited when I learned that Jackie Chan and Jet Li, two of Asia’s most popular martial arts actors, are going to star in one movie. I really waited for this movie to be shown and …
My Fellow Americans
About the only thing I don’t like about My Fellow Americans from 1996 is the language. There’s a bit too much profanity in it for my taste, and I honestly don’t think it’s necessary to further the characters or the plot. So, with that one negative remark, …
Venture Bros Volume One DVD
I don’t know how I went so long without hearing about the Venture Bros. Truthfully, it is one of the best cartoon shows I have ever seen. And I do mean ever. It certainly outshadows anything and everything else seen on Adult Swim (not …
Redrum
“Redrum” is possibly one of the silliest movies I have ever watched. I am not quite sure why the movie is being aired on the television in the first place, or why someone would want to spend money on making a movie such as this as I found everything …
Idiocracy (2006)
Luke Wilson star in this comedy DVD that I’ve watched, titled Idiocracy. The movie was released in the year 2006, and I’ve watched it before. But now, it felt really awesome to relive again the funny scenes on DVD.
Luke Wilson’s character agrees to be the ‘guinea pig’ of …
One of Us (2017 Movie)
One of Us is a horror, drama mystery film directed by Blake Reigle. It actually feels more like a thriller rather than a horror film as there is nothing horrifying or scary about it.
The story starts off with journalist, Melanie receiving a call for help from her friend, Haley.
Melanie …

Saving Private Ryan movie
Bloody, gruesome, vicious and emotional are the words to describe this movie. A great film directed by Stephen Spielberg. The battle on the beach brought tears to my eyes when you saw how the men were dying, being dismembered and the scene when one soldier turned back to pick …
Circus Movie
Charlie Chaplin’s Circus is not one of the comedy master’s most famous films, but it is one of my personal favorites. The story is very simple: the tramp (Chaplin) comes to a circus so seek his fortune. While there the most unlikely and crazy adventures take place and I …
Movie Rat Race
I got home from work last night and wanted to watch something a bit different from the shows I normally watch. Fortunately for me, I came across the movie Rat Race on one of our movie channels.
I have seen this movie a half dozen times now at least and …
The Langoliers
Adapted from a short story by Stephen King, The Langoliers is yet another entry into the hit and miss catalogue of mini-series and movies based upon his works.
The story itself is both simple and unsettling; a small group of passengers awaken on a commercial plane midflight to find the …
Movie 1408
I really enjoyed watching this movie. I wouldn’t really say it was scary, I would say it was more freaky. I really liked it though. It kept me interested and entertained the whole movie. I wasn’t bored at any part. The actors did a good job and it was …
The Simpson’s Movie
The Simpson’s is one of the most hilarious TV show that I have ever watched in my life. The entire show ,their characters are just too funny. When I heard that their movie was going to be out,I made it a point to get tickets for the first day …
