Happy Feet
While my original plan was to take my 6 year old to see an old standby flick, we changed our minds after viewing the clip for Happy Feet. Even so, I still thought of it as only a great “children’s movie”. Afterwards, I found myself pleasantly surprised …
Columbiana Movie
I just saw the Columbiana movie last night. This is a revenge-driven movie that stars Zoe Saldana. The movie centers into the life of a child that has been corrupted because of a traumatic experience she experienced when she was still a child. Her father was involved in a …

My Big Fat Greek Wedding
I am reviewing the movie, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which was released in 2002. Nia Vardalos stars as Toula, a thirty year old, single, Greek woman who lives with her family and works in her family’s Greek restaurant as a seating hostess. She is unhappy, and …
Protocol movie
Protocol is a nice little comedy about Sunny Davis, a cocktail waitress who saves a dignitary and goes to work for the government. It’s a crazy story that is as probable as it is improbable in this media-conscious world of ours.
Goldie Hawn is Sunny, an upbeat, innocent, and …
My Louisiana Sky movie
A film set in the 1950s America about a young girl who is raised by her grandmother because both her parents have severe diseases. When the grandmother dies the girl gets to live with her aunt instead, but she lives many miles away from her parents, and there is …
Aliens
Females kick butt in this 1985 follow-up to the eerie and moody Ridley Scott classic Alien. James Cameron was at the helm of this production and wisely tried to stay clear from making a carbon copy of Scott’s cult film, deciding to go for a full out action film …
Daddy’s Little Girls
OK, when my wife insisted on renting the movie Daddy�s Little Girls, I did the same thing any good husband would do; rolled my eyes. In fact, I told her she was more than welcome to watch it while I was at work.
Personally, I never have been a big …
Hellboy: Sword of Storms
I am not the biggest Hellboy fan around. Never read the comic books. Watched part of the live action movie starring Ron Pearlman, but didn’t find myself particularly enraptured by it. So I decided to give his first animated feature, Hellboy: Sword of Storms (also starring …
Snowpiercer (science fiction movie)
On reading some of the reviews for the 2013 movie Snowpiercer, it was easy for me to assume that the movie would not have been any good since it was heavily criticised by a lot of people. However, after watching it for myself I strongly agree that while it did …
Gidget Goes Hawaiian movie
Two years after Sandra Dee captured the world as the girl midget known as Gidget, the character was back in Gidget Goes Hawaiian. Now honestly, this one is probably my favorite. There’s something about the storyline that I really loved. I don’t know if technically it’s …
Pride and Glory movie
—˜Pride and Glory’ is the drama movie that puts together the great acting talents of two young Hollywood actors such as Edward Norton and Colin Farrell. As expected this movie delivers the goodies, with a great acting team, great script and director. The result is a movie that will …
Memento movie
The beginning of Memento did little to impress me. It was confusing and I was concerned from the start that it just wasn’t going to be my kind of movie. The film stars Guy Pearce as Leonard, who is suffering from short-term memory loss and is after …
Deadpool (2016 Superhero Movie)
One of the best superhero movies I remember seeing in a long time had to be the Marvel movie “Deadpool”. I remember there was this great anticipation of what the movie would be like, and then I read and heard a lot of good reviews about the movie while it …
Tyler Perry’s ‘The Family That Preys’ (movie)
I really didn’t know what to expect from this film when I first heard the name of it. Tyler Perry is best known for his comedies such as ‘Diary of a Mad Black Woman’ and ‘Meet the Browns’. I was really surprised today when I watched his 2008 film …
“All the King’s Men” The removie: (2006)
After I watched “All the King’s Men” and wrote my review I read some other reviews. For a minute I thought I had watched a totally different movie. Almost universally “All the King’s Men” was panned by the critics. The movie was not just panned but picked to pieces …
The 10th Kingdom miniseries/movie
Maybe I’m a little late in reviewing “The 10th Kingdom” miniseries, but seeing as it’s the ten year anniversary of when it aired on NBC, I figured I’d share my thoughts. I recently watched the DVD of “The 10th Kingdom”, and it’s the first time I’ve seen the movie …
DOMINION,movie
This movie begins in Poland, when the German’s had invaded the Country. The start of this movie may truly rattle you, and I know that you will be jolted when certain things happen, so quickly, that you will find it hard to realize that this is how things just …
Charade movie
From 1963, Charade is one of the best thrillers ever made, and to think it revolves around a simple stamp. The film is romantic, dramatic, and leaves you gasping more than once as the action unfolds. The mystery stays fresh and revitalizes itself several times throughout. …
Blank Check movie
I completely forgot about this movie until some time recently when I was having a discussion with a few of my friends about children’s movies from the nineteen nineties. The name of the movie Blank Check came up and I decided to write about it. It was not my …
The Proposal movie
I am reviewing the 2009 movie, The Proposal, starting Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White.
The plot to this movie is quite simple. Sandra Bullock plays a mean, severely unlikeable boss, who, when threatened with deportation, blackmails her assistant into pretending that they are married. There’s only …
Jurassic Park (1993)
This is the story of man’s attempt to reintroduce the extinct creatures of the past. Their obsessions with dinosaurs have led them to spawn from fossils the very creatures that nature saw fit to destroy in order for a new generation of beings could inhabit the plains of the …
A Few Good Men movie
A Few Good Men is a very good movie and a very powerful film. I think this is one of the best military movies ever made. Even though it did not have many if any gun battles or fights it truly kept you at the edge of your seat and …
Dunston Checks In Movie
Dunston Checks In is not the kind of movie that I would typically watch. But just last weekend at a family gathering a family member popped in the DVD and there it was. To my surprise I loved the movie right from the first couple of minutes of watching. …
The Secret Garden (movie)
The Secret Garden is the story of Mary Lennox, who is orphaned and sent to live with her uncle. Mary does not meet her uncle until she arrives at his home, and he is taken with her resemblance to his deceased wife, her aunt. Mary is a withdrawn and …
For Richer or Poorer
The movie for Richer or Poorer is so magnificently funny I almost wet myself over laughing. It is about a rich couple who’s marriage is falling apart and they are trying to get a divorce. While this is happening their personal accountant is stealing money from …
LadyHawke film
LadyHawke is one of Matthew Broderick’s better films even though most people probably haven’t seen it.
The movie is full of medieval fantasy and magic as he tries to help a couple that is cursed. The woman is a hawk by day and the man a wolf by night, keeping …
Thirteen Ghosts (movie)
I don’t know about you all but I enjoy the series called Mr Monk on cable. Before Mr Monk came on the TV, the star of the show was in a movie called Thirteen Ghosts.
Although this movie would never win an academy award, it was interesting …
Movie Mirrors
Starring: Keifer Sutherland (Ben Carson), Paula Patton (Amy Carson), Cameron Boyce (Michael Carson), Erica Gluck (Daisy Carson), Amy Smart (Angela Carson), Mary Beth Peil (Anna Esseker)
This movie follows roughly the storyline of a Korean movie that I’ve seen 2 or 3 years back (Into the Mirror). …
A Storm in Summer,2000 movie
This movie is a real gem. Peter Falk plays Abel Shaddick, an angry old man who seems to hate everyone and everything. However, Falk manages to make his character interesting rather than totally unlikable: we want to know the reason of his anger, and as we suspect that the …
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010 Film)
In 2010, a film starring Michael Cera came out that looked to be something extremely interesting and a movie that he will be well known for. It was called “Scott Pilgrim vs. The World”. Sad to say, that this film did not really hold the wow factor that I …
Jet Li`s New Movie — Unleashed
Jet Li
UNLEASHED
(Danny The Dog)
This film shows that Jet Li can actually act, he has been in a few movies in the past which have just been all action, but `Unleashed` has a very heartfelt storyline with great actors supporting Jet Li such as Morgan Freeman and Bob Hoskins …
Patch Adams movie
I am a nurse and I love to watch movies that are inspirational and very much related to my chosen field of career. I really love this movie Patch Adams because I love the way he treated the children suffering from Cancer. I enjoyed watching every bit of this …
Up (Animated Movie by Pixar)
Up is a great animated movie by Pixar. I must say that there is a great content in this movie and that the old man and the little kid is really hilarious. It is not really that funny, but if you watch it closely and watch how the …
The Postman movie
The Postman has got to rank as one of the better movies I have watched in the 90’s. I have read a lot of articles stating negative reviews but I guess we’re all entitled to our own opinion so I still suggest you give this movie a shot. It …
Baby’s day out movie
It is one of the funniest and cutest movie I ever saw. It is a story about a little child, who hardly can stand up, and how he discovers the city, and how he makes the three men’s life miserable, who kidnapped him. The story starts by showing that …
The X-Files: I Want to Believe
After a phenomenal television series, I was extremely disappointed with “The X-Files: I Want to Believe” by Chris Carter. Five or six years after Special Agent Fox Mulder and Dr. Dana Scully escaped from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the FBI acquired a case which needed the expertise …
Wall*e
Wall*e is such a cute movie. I rented it for my kids the day that it was finally available on DVD.
It’s a story about a trash robot that was left on earth, along with other trash robots, all most seven hundred years ago. Humans had made so much trash …
Resident Evil: Apocalypse movie
The sequel to the zombie movie Resident Evil, which in its turn was based on a video game. Milla Jovovich returns as the sexy female hero who fights the blod-thirsty creatues with elegance and cleverness. The first film was in my opinion at bad as a film can possibly …
Harold and Kumar go to white castle
Many movies have made me laugh, but harold and kumar brought it to a new level… it made me cry… from laughter.
This movie has some of the funniest scenes I have ever seen. The story is that two friends Harold and Kumar, get the munchies and they want to …
Movie The Illusionist
I must admit I am a huge fan of Edward Norton’s films. Every time there is a new movie of his; I simply jump at the opportunity to watch it. His films are simply extraordinary. In “The Illusionist” one can see Norton at his very best. This is definitely …
The Extra Man movie 2010
At one point I wondered why there aren’t more eccentric characters in one film. The answer is that they not occur. It seems that you can not cram a young English teacher with bizarre sexual inclinations, an old bearded playwright gigolo and a mechanic with a high voice who …
The devil wears prada
This is a Meryl Streep movie, and like all of her movies she is simply fantastic. I find that Streep gives that extra input in her work that makes her such an extra ordinary actress. I personally compare her a lot to the actor, Joaquin Phoenix they …
Baby Einstein movie
I’m not sure who came up with the Baby Einstein series on DVD but I am very glad that they did. These videos are a god-send for parents of toddlers everywhere.
My 2-year-old will watch movies but, like most kids her age, doesn’t sit too long before she’s moving on …
Disturbia
I just love Shia La Beouf’s movies. This is another one of them. It was released in 2007, under the horror category. However this was more of a thriller than horror.
The story is about a boy Kale(Shia La Beouf) who is under house arrest for punching his Spanish teacher …
Love Affair movie
This 1939 film called Love Affair is considered a classic romantic piece, and it’s beloved by a lot of people, but I’m not really one of them. I just have so many moralistic problems with the piece in various forms. Part of it is the lack of …
Rebound (2005)
Rebound, directed by Steve Carr is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for mild language and thematic elements. The original release date was July 1, 2005 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Comedy/Family/Sport and stars Martin Lawrence as Roy McCormick, Wendy …
The Perfect Storm movie
Yet another one of those human disaster films, this time directed by the once so talented Wolfgang Petersen who made Das Boot back in the early 1980s. Mark Wahlberg and George Clooney are the fishers who experience the worst storm in history out in the middle of the ocean, …
