Seven Pounds Movie
When asked Will Smith on what this story was all about, he said he couldn’t really tell as the narration would give away the story itself! I was really curiuos and knowing Will to be a very good actor, I watched this in anticipation.
I honestly didn’t get the …
Motion Picture “Trick or Treat”
The movie Trick or Treat is different than most horror movies I have seen. Usually there is one killer or perhaps a pair of killers going around killing people in a movie. This movie has several plots going at once and you are waiting to see how they …
Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

IMDb is the international movies database, and for good reason. The sheer size of the amount of movies covered on this website is simply unsurpassed, I’d say. Every movie has a page, even if all is listed is a simple title. But rest assured, that situation will only persist …

The Woman in Black (horror movie)

The Secret DVD
I’ve studied manifestation for about 15 years and understand basic principles, but The Secret really summed manifestation up. This movie was emotional, funny and introspective. Australian Rhonda Byrne put the movie together after her father died. She read The Science of Getting Rich, which her father left to her. …
Urban Legend
Urban Legend is one of the few horror movies that I can watch again and again, no matter how many times I have seen it. It almost feels like the writers and producers wanted to make a movie that appeals to horror movie fans. I love watching it just …

Pigs vs Freaks movie
In 1984, the movie Pigs vs Freaks was aired. Oddly, it had been filmed in 1980, and in truth, it was loosely based on a game that had been written up in Time Magazine in 1970. In other words, this movie was a long time coming. …
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 …

King Kelly of the U.S.A. movie
King Kelly of the U.S.A. was released in 1934 and actually had some entertaining moments. While it dragged here and there and was very vaudeville in spots, it still is pleasing to watch in today’s world.
The story begins on a cruise ship and that is where we meet …
The Parent Trap - Film 1961
The first time I ever watched this movie I did so rather tongue-in-cheek - simply because my mother had recommended it and my mother and I do not have the same taste in movies! So to say that I was pleasantly surprised is a bit of an understatement.
The story …
The Wrestler (2008) Movie
I recorded this movie on Sky Plus and then did not watch it for the longest time, until recently. This is because despite the fact that it stars Mickey Rourke - one of my most favourite actors - I did prejudge that, despite all the critics raving about …
Iron Man DVD
I bought this on DVD today, for around $15 at Target. It stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jeff Bridges.
To be honest, I wasn’t sure that Robert Downey Jr. could pull off the character of Tony Stark/Iron Man believably. Don’t get me wrong, he …

The Pagemaster
This movie is so much fun! It was made in 1994 and stars Christopher Lloyd and Macaulay Culkin, with other well known actors lending their voices and talents to the film, including Whoopi Goldberg.
When the movie begins and ends, it’s live action. But, for the …
Finding Nemo
One of my daughter’s favorite all time movie is Finding Nemo. She was obsessed with Nemo for such a long time. I enjoyed watching this movie with her because it was a classic. Anything that is made by Disney or Disney Pixar is such a great …
Movie Silence of the Lambs
This spectacular movie has my most favorite film monologue ever and it’s probably the most memorable one as well. It was delivered quite eloquently by the legendary Anthony Hopkins. This film, “Silence of the Lambs” is nothing short of a
masterpiece. Based on the gripping novel by the author Thomas …
Must Love Dogs movie
We recently rented the DVD “Must Love Dogs,” starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. Or, I should say, my wife rented it.
This is definitely a roma-comedy, a chick flick, more appropriate to a girls nite with Ben & Jerry than to a nite with her husband.
There is some …
Some Kind of Wonderful movie
One of the most classic and beloved american high school movies of the 1980s, perhaps not as well known as Fast times at Ridgemont High for example, but Some kind of wonderful is definitely my own personal favorite. In the centre of the story stands a rebellious young man, …

Boy eats girl movie
I really like zombie movies, books, comic books and video games. When I saw Boy eats girl on Netflix I decided to watch it. It is a campy teenage zombie film from Ireland. I don’t think it is very old maybe a few years old. It starts off like …
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 …

Movie Emma
This movie is as charming as funny as it is romantic, and it is another film based off of one of Jane Austen’s works. The colors are lovely, and the characters all are just as I would have imagined them after reading the book. It is very accurate, and …
Larry the Cable Guy: Witless Protection
I’m a huge Larry the Cable Guy fan; both his stand up comedy and the several movies he’s starred in recently. So, I couldn’t wait to see his newest film, Witless Protection.
While a funny movie, I have to say it really didn’t live up to the standards set by …
Cowboy Bebop episode 2
In Cowboy Bebop, episode 2, cool dog’s strut is a marvelous excuse of a waste of time. Keeping up with Cowboy Bebop’s unparalleled style, the entire episode seems to be an excuse to write in Rin. Who is our new lovable bioengineered welsh carrier, that seems to hog …
The Purge: Anarchy (horror movie)
With the movie “The Purge” and its original concept that I liked, I knew that I most definitely had to and see its sequel “The Purge: Anarchy”. However, it was a matter of making the decision to see it in the cinema or on Blu-ray, because I didn’t think that …
Movie Mad Money
“Mad Money” is simply a great movie with mixture of comic and dramatic moments. The main actors in this movie are Diane Keaton, Ted Danson, Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes and all of them do their part well, however Keaton gives that extra bit more and it shows.
“Mad Money” …
