Movies Reviews
Ghostbusters movie
One of my favorite movies was the first Ghostbusters movie. Even now, I think of it as a classic even though it has one of my least favorite comedians and actors in there, Bill Murray. I think one of the reasons why I appreciated it too was that, even …
Brief Crossing (NR, 2001) film
Director Catherine Breillat is one of the most underrated directors of all time. Her films will appeal to women because of their intimate nature. But men will love her movies because they are filled with beautiful women and some pretty intense romantic situations. In this movie, …
Ratatouile movie
I like this movie so much. I enjoy so much how a rat was able to change a life of an orphan and was the sole key for his success. I enjoy the movie so much since the story line was a little fresh. I love how the plot …
Perfect Neighbor movie
I watched a couple of movies on Lifetime movie network today and this was one of the movies that they played. It was kind of interesting, it could have been better. The movie had a pretty good ending to it. It was about a neighbor that was crazy and …

The Four Feathers movie
I kept getting this movie from the library and neglecting to watch it, because for some reason I thought that it looked boring. Then, when I finally got down to watch it, I could not leave the couch for anything and miss a few moments of that movie. It …
Good Luck Chuck
I just finished watching the ‘unrated’ version of the DVD for this movie, and I must say, it’s totally hilarious. The building up of the movie about Charlie Logan (Dane Cook) being hex by the girl that he refused to make out with when they were young until him …
Departures - (in Japanese)
I watched Departures the other day with my circle of friends and I was moved to tears. This movie storyline is so touching that it just makes you wonder what you would do and how you would react when someone in your circle of family or friends and relatives …
The Shadow
The Shadow is a very good super hero movie. I never knew what The Shadow was. But when I finally saw this movie I must say that I loved it a lot. This movie is very good and I really do think that Alec Baldwin did a great job of …
Inside Access Jeff Gordon DVD
I saw the Inside Access Jeff Gordon DVD at the store and picked it up, thinking that it might be interesting. I’m not a fan of the racer, but I do think he’s talented and does some great things both on and off the track. I put it in …
Babysitter Wanted Horror movie
I am reveiwing the new Horror movie “Babysitter Wanted”. At first I thought this movie was going to be more like a Halloween Micke Myers kind of movie but when I beheld the child with the horns in the top of his head i was more than flabbergasted.

Veggie Tales:God Made You Special
I absolutely love getting Veggie Tale movies for my daughter; both because they are entertaining and because I know she is getting something that will teach her things that will help her be a better person as she gets older.
The movie God Made You Special is a good example …
Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire
To kind of quote Indiana Jones, now we’re getting nasty. This is the first of the Potter stories to have someone killed, giving us a taste of what’s to come, priming us, if you will. The atmosphere of Goblet of Fire is decidedly darker. The moods of the characters …
It Happened to Jane movie
This 1959 Doris Day movie, It Happened to Jane, is one of my favorite Day productions. It costars Jack Lemmon, and Lemmon is just top notch. He and Day are wacky and adorable together. For most of the film, they’re just friends with underlying love that …

Alex and Emma (2003 Film)
The 2003 film “Alex and Emma” starring Kate Hudson in the early stages of her career, and Luke Wilson, was a film that was really trying to be romantic and funny. I could see it in the jokes and scenes that were exaggerated. However, it really did not deliver. …
Happy Feet (2006)
Happy Feet, directed by George Miller and Warren Coleman is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for some mild peril and rude humor. The original release date was November 17, 2006 for United States audiences. This movie falls in the genre of Animation/Adventure/Comedy/Family/Musical and stars the …
I Am Legend DVD
I am Legend is very much a one man show with lead actor Will Smith on great form in undeniably his best screen performance to date. Overhyped? almost definately, but despite this the end result is ultimately rewarding.
So what’s it all about ? Emma …
The Nanny Diaries
The Nanny Diaries reminds me very much of my first few jobs. I think it is such an awesome movie and I love Scarlett Johansson’s acting tremendously. I love it very much and it is such a good and funny movie which made me laugh very much. …
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 …

Turn right, Turn left movie
This movie is really great; It was produced in Hongkong and was starred by a Japanese hearthrob and a singaporean actress. I have enjoyed watching it because of the unique and cute mild love story. The characters have met 10 years ago as a child and have never talked …
The film The Secret
I found this “The Secret” to be quite ridiculous, a tad boring, and totally unrealistic. This “movie” generated much hype a couple of years ago and, like most, I fell for it all and ran out to rent it. BIG mistake. It spends two agonizing hours …
Iron Man
To me, Iron Man is one of the top five comic book movies ever made, right up there with Superman I, Spider-man 2, and the Dark Knight. Robert Downey Jr. plays Tony Stark and is the best “alter ego” of any of the super hero movie actors. …
National Lampoon’s Stoned Age Unrated, comedy film
A movie so bad they decided to call it something completely different when it was released on video. Stoned Age is the comedy to bear the National Lampoon name. At one time this name met something but now you can see why the National Lampoon series is dreaded by …
The Happening - Directed by M. Night Shyamalan
The happening is one of the worst rated movies of M. Night Shyamalan however I actually enjoyed it though I cannot call it a favorite. The movie is basically about plants giving off a chemical that causes people to commit suicide.
I can see why it has such horrible …
Dumb and Dumber To - Comedy Movie (2014)
I went in expecting this movie to be as funny as its prequel (Dumb and Dumber), which released 20 years ago. It didn’t quite live up to my expectations but nevertheless it was funny. It was extremely ‘dumb’ enough to invoke laughter throughout the film. The film has done extremely …
Movie: 9 to 5
I finally got a chance to relax about 9 last night, after putting both kids to bed and feeding the cat. Since my wife (who somehow manages to get out of helping me at night) was already in bed, I figured I would try to find a movie or …
Slither movie not worth watching
When I saw the previews for Slither on TV, I thought it was going to be a good horror movie. After all, you can’t go wrong with slimy slugs that take over people’s bodies and turn them into zombies.
Unfortunately, the makers of the movie missed big-time and turned what …
The Vanished Murderer (Suspense Crime Action Thriller)
I guess I am on a marathon of Jiang Yiyan’s movies. I’ve previously mentioned why I became a fan of her and I won’t repeat myself here again.
A thing I realized about her movies is that, she usually has very interesting roles but the movie itself is always lacking somehow. …
Movie “Dinner for Schmucks” (2010)
I had high hopes for this movie. I saw the previews and it looked funny, plus I enjoy Paul Rudd movies and he is the star of this film. Sadly, while his performance and the performance of everyone in the film was wonderful I found it boring. …

Tom Brown’s School Days movie
I had never heard of 1940’s Tom Brown’s School Days before watching it this afternoon. It was an intriguing view on honesty, integrity, and strictness at an English school called Rugby.
What fascinated me the most was the appearance of Cedric Hardwicke as Dr. Thomas Arnold. At the …

17 Again movie
The choice of actor Zack Efron to do the movie ‘17 Again’ really caught me by surprise. After finish working on the last movie of ‘High School Musical’, Efron declared that he wanted to work on movies with far more challenging roles. In all honestly, I found that there …

Film “The Other Guys” (2010)
I consider myself to be a fan of Mark Walburg but not of Will Ferrell. I used to like Will but I have found his last several movies to all be similar. Mark can play a range of characters, but Will always seems to play a very …
Desperado Movie
I didn’t want to watch Desperado. I resisted for a lon gtime, but finally and reluctantly, I had to give in and watch at least one action movie, and I picked this one. Thankfully so.

Good Against Evil movie
Good Against Evil, a 1977 movie, was apparently a pilot for a TV series which didn’t sell. I’m not surprised, to be honest. Unfortunately, this also means that there is no ending really to the picture. That’s because the catalyst for the action had to be …
