Jurassic World (2015 Science Fiction Adventure Movie)

I began binging on Art films after watching a lot of Godard’s works. I was able to gather a short preview of the film, courtesy of nytimes’ feature called the —˜critics picks’ —“ just like most of the Godard movies I’ve seen which were usually favored by critics. …

“Hooligans” movie
Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …

Parents movie
Parents is a very old scary movie. But by todays standards it’s looked upon as a comedy instead of a horror movie. It’s a very dark yet funny movie. I guess that is why it’s called a dark comedy. But when I watched this film as a kid, I thought …
Annabelle (2014) - Spin-off of ‘The Conjuring’
For me, most horror movies that have been produced in the last decade have merely used rehashed cliches and the same formulas to create what often turns out to be a subpar movie. The story doesn’t flow often and cheap tactics are used to incite fear. ‘Annabelle’ is another one …
Little miss sunshine movie
Little miss sunshine is a really family oriented movie. If it did not have so much profanity, it probably would have been really successful as a mainstream movie. A dysfunctional family is coming together going on a road trip because the little girl wants to be in a little …
Walking Tall
I saw Walking Tall the other day, and I must say it’s very funny. I really thought The Rock did a good job in this movie. He was very violent and kicked butt in this movie. Walking Tall is about a small town that has been turned evil by drugs. …
Rocky Horror Picture Show

Pretty simple plot to go with. There is a bug within …
District 9 movie
Sci-fi movies for me are so formulaic. I watch one sci-fi movie, I can say that I have watched almost 90% of all the sci-fi flicks that were released in the past years because of it. Sci-fi movies with aliens are more predictable and repetitive. Aliens terrorize the human …

A Guy Thing

Happy Feet Movie
I had heard this so much about this small penguin and having in my brain the popular saying “where there are a lot of cherries hold a small basket”, I was little circumspect with the particular animation movie. Also, I believed that after “Searching for Nemo” hardly another animation …
Kidulthood (R, 2006) movie
It is always weird to see street kids from England. Their little accents make them sound so sweet, yet they are using language that is just as foul as American people. This movie focuses on a group of teenagers going to a school. One of the …
Movie: “Stand By Me” (1986)
This movie is based on the novella “The Body” by Stephen King. I was very happy to see that, for once, the movie closely followed the original story; and actually did it justice.

Save the last dance movie
I admit at the moment I am watching a bit of old teen movies mixed with the more recent ones. I can’t help but compare “Save the last dance 1″ with the more recent movie “Step Up 1″. I personally enjoyed watching more “Save the last dance” than “Step …

Sleuth is a mystery, thriller and suspense type movie about Andrew. Andrew is a mystery writer with a wild imagination. I think it is quite amusing that the main character of the movie that is a mystery type film will have the main character as a mystery writer. Sometimes …
Storm of the Century (horror movie)
Although it is a bit long, without any doubt, this is absolutely one of my favourite horror movies by Stephen King. With seemingly little effort, he manages to convey suspense from one end of this outstanding movie right through to the other as our imaginations run the gamut.
The …

Zombieland movie
