The question I asked myself while watching Franklyn on blu-ray was how do these four stories come together? The back of the case suggests that it all comes together at some point but I am not seeing it. Does Franklyn have bull shit written all over it or is …

I thought the movie Duplex was one of the most hilarious Ben Stiller movies I remember seeing. I did not even expect it to be so funny before I saw it either and I would normally pick up whether a comedy film is going to be funny as soon …

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 …

I have voted this very watchable 1950’s Ealing Studios film my favourite film of all time. I have watched this film time and time again since well before video was ever even thought of and in those days you had to wait for things to be repeated on …

It took me a while to get around to watching “The Weight of Water” with Sean Penn. I am a Penn fan. But this film’s synopsis just seemed so trite and boring. Wow, was I wrong. The movie is based on a …

The patriot is one my my favorite movies. This movie is remembered for the stunning performance of Male Gibson. He is also the director of the movie.
I have seen this movie more than twenty times. And in spite of this I am ready to see this any time. …

I’ve just watched it last night and up until I wrote this review I still can’t remove all of those stunning scenes from my mind and my brain. The movie was beyond my imagination; Cameron has succeeded to combine both the reality and fantasy world, he had created “another” …

The best CGI movie to-date. What else can be said? This film is a most see for both adults and children. A true family hit. You cannot go wrong renting or buyng it. The Incredibles will is the greatest true action movie to hit the screen. If you haven’t …

Obviously, a review of ANY Stanley Kubrick movie is going to have the usual raves (visually stunning, technically masterful!) and the usual criticisms (the acting can feel a little…robotic at times, and there’s generally a certain bleak, emotionally distant view of the human condition). Those definitely apply to Kubrick’s …

Hacock has Will Smith in it and he plays a superhero. When I first rented the movie, I wanted to see it but it wasn’t a movie that I was that excited about seeing. Now I am glad that I watched it. I liked Hancock because it wasn’t all …

Godzilla: Final Wars is a Godzilla movie that is quite different in style compared to previous installments in the series. The movie seems to try and emulate popular Hollywood movies like the Matrix while taking a page out of a previous entry in the series, namely the movie Destroy …

Nicholas Cage seems to make like ten movies a year. Okay, maybe not that many, but he definitely puts out like two per year. Three years ago he came out with Lord of War and The Weatherman back to back. I liked Lord of War but not so much …

While I still can’t recall why exactly this was the case, I found that I wasn’t very interested in watching the movie “I am Number Four” when it was about to be released. I had watched the trailer and just wasn’t very impressed by what I had seen to …

Friday the 13th was not the first slasher movie, but it does get credit for a few things. The biggest seller point to Friday the 13th is the fact we never saw anything like this, at the time. To this day Friday the 13th has been able to stand …

A friend brought over a copy of this movie. I immediately thought of the City of God, although that film takes place in Brazil. Anyway, this film features two young Haitian men who have been called to serve in an army called “Chimeres”. These are basically …

Is is Sunday afternoon and my son and I went to the Arundel Mills Mall egyptian Muvico to see the new movie that is called Jumpes.
In my opinion this move was a combination of other movies that I had seen in the past. But it was really good. …

Comic book movies have been getting progressively more and more common in theaters within the past five years. Not necessarily superhero movies either. Different graphic novel properties have been bought up by a movie companies and are being added crafted into big-screen, Hollywood films. Movies such as “300″ and …

The funniest movie you’ll ever see. That is how I had this movie advertised to me. I laughed and said no way when I heard this. And after seeing the movie I am ready to admit..I was right. This movie is no where NEAR the …

I admit that I entered in the theater with quite low expectations, being a fan of horror movies, I decided to give it a try for the following two reasons, first- it’s a horror movie, second- it is made in digital 3-D.
first of all, Hats off to the filmmakers for …

The cult favorite among many people is a very gore-filled comedy about a young medicine student who gets involved in the most horrific way of making dead bodies come back to life. The film is very bizarre and the violence just seem to pop out of nowhere, just like …

Certain genres of movies never seem to advance too much. Crime is that one genre that tends to follow the same path, get a bunch of people and rob a bank. The Bank Job follows this tiresome formula but for some reason it is more entertaining than half the …

I have said this before, my son and I spend one afternoon together, we dine out and we go to the movies. Last week we went after work and had dinner and a movie. My son is such a nice young man, he really is. Anyway we …

The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people. I also chose to watch this movie, mainly because I am interested in what the movie is about, given the seductive name. However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …

With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …

Jim Carrey has always been a very cool and talented actor. And I remember after watching Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I feel that this is something like the effect of having a too much technical jargon of a life.
I wouldn’t ever trade my previous memories …

Howard Hawks directed with great success this 1949 war comedy, I Was a Male War Bride. This is a twist on the war film that hadn’t been done before that I know of, and it was a real winner.
The movie opens with two people meeting and …

When it comes to Christmas movies, there usually isn�t much difference between one or another; especially when they are comedies.
But, the film Deck the Halls admittedly was pretty good.
It�s one thing to have Christmas spirit, but what if your neighbor has so much Christmas spirit it’s keeping you up …

I just finished watching “The Fourth Kind” and can’t stop laughing. This was a pathetic attempt at a movie. The premise is similar to the Blair Witch film in that it is presented as a “mockumentary” complete with fake “archive footage and audio.” This is one of those movies …

I am reviewing the movie, Phantom of the Opera, the new version, which was released in 2004. It stars Emmy Rossum as Christine, a chorus girl at an opera theatre who is being taught secrety by the “angel of music,” a phantom she believes was sent to her by …

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.
It’s 1960 in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine; and a boy named Ray Brower has …

You know, I have seen the live action version of the movie The Jungle Book but this past weekend was the first time I’ve seen the cartoon version. After finally getting a chance to watch it (with my daughter) I have to say I liked the live version better.
This …

Ballad of a Soldier is a russian film about the life of a young russian man and his the futility of war. It was made in a time when the artistic freedom in soviet union had increased, and a lot of interesting cinema appeared as a result. It’s something …

I have never seen a stand-up comedy movie as funny as this one. I was a little weirded out by the fact that it was a “movie”–and not just a consecutive stand-up routine that was filmed. This movie featured Katt Williams and other comedians. But what …

Being filmed in 1984, “Dreamscape” may be a little dated when it comes to special effects, but it is still a good movie. Alex Gardner, played by Dennis Quaid, is a gifted psychic. He is invited to participate in a government funded sleep research at the special clinic that …

I rented the movie National Treasure today because it stars Nicolas Cage. I had seen the advertisements trailers for the movie during a mini TV show called treasure hunters. It is a movie about a man named Ben who is hunting for a treasure that was hid by the …

The Bourne Identity introduces the world to Jason Bourne, a former CIA operative who is suffering amnesia. It follows his fact paces, death defying journey to discover the truth about who he is. I love the first real action scence in the movie where he’s in the bank and …

I watched ‘Vicky, Christina, Barcelona’ last night and could certainly see glimmerings of Woody Allen’s philosophical depth and cynicism in the interactions between the three lead roles - Vicky, Christina and Juan.
The locales in Spain are beautifully shot and I like the narrative style of the film. The threesome …

I will confess that I was expecting something a little bit longer. Showing for only 50 minutes, I was looking for a bit more depth. This History Channel program dives into the supernatural, and spends a few minutes with different people who have had experience …

I was looking for a movie that has it all drama, comedy, a great plot. A friend told me to watch the movie Click. I did and I tell you I do not regret it. This movie was a tear jearker I cried like a baby in two different …

This movie is excellent in every way but I was skeptical until I sat down to watch it. Mel Gibson directs an action packed story-line that grabs your adrenaline first and your heart second. In the beginging of this movie you are introduced to a tribe of early Aztec …

WHen I was still a girl in prep school, I can remember one of the most popular movies of the nineteen nineties was the movie “Armageddon”. I would hear my friends talking about it from time to time talking about which scene was their favourite and how the …

I don’t think I was fully prepared for what a wonderful film this would be. Set in ancient Mayan times, this film directed by Mel Gibson follows a tribe of Mayans who are in fight for their very existence when a neighboring tribe destroys their village and then …

Cris Johson, this young man since birth has extraordinary talent. Cris can predict what will befall him in the future, exactly two minutes to the front. However, this does not apply for a woman believed to be his life partner, Liz. Short stories, Liz and Cris met and they …

When I first saw the movie Virtual Girl, my first thought was it was going to be some sort of soft-core porn film posing as a thriller. But, I have had that impression of other movies before and, when I gave them a chance, I found them to be …

I have a complete first season DVD of The Wonder Woman. Yes, it is true and please do not laugh for I love this show pretty much while it was broadcast on the TV channels a couple years back.
It is especially fun to watch this DVD with my group …

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. …
