When it comes to Stephen King movies, they are usually hit or miss with me. In the case of Maximum Overdrive, it was definitely a miss.
While I did like the concept; a comet passing near Earth causes all machines to come to life and attempt to kill humans, overall …

Matt Damon stars as a killer…hmmm, where has this ever been done before. While this film could have been a great film, it fails to deliver the goods. I was left wanting no more after it was all said and done with. The characters were robotic and no life …

Even though it hasn’t gotten a very good rating, the movie “Weird Science” is one of those teenage coming of age comedies that I think a lot of people consider as a classic somewhat. I personally never really liked it because it was exceptional, but I liked it because …

Out of the many movies that I’ve seen over my lifetime, this is one of those that stands out because of how it frightened me when I watched it one Sunday when I was still a fairly young child. I remember how strange the entire thing was too because …

The 2008 movie “Rachel Getting Married” might have had a great cast who fell into the roles of their characters phenomenally, and maybe they have done that too well. Because Anne Hathaway who plays Rachel’s sister, Kim, in the movie, really got on my nerves and I think that …

Back to basics. This film was shot entirely in black and white, reminiscient of the old days of film-making, before special effects or computer graphics. Risky, but it proved brilliant. The lack of digital enterntainment required the actors to step up to the plate, and they did so much …

First off, let me start off by saying that I am not a huge fan when movies are done with nearly all CGI. I like when it is used properly and peppered into the movie like a Lord of the Rings or Narnia has done in the past. …

Mostly famous because an unknown Steve McQeeen plays the leading part. A some sort of monster movie, with a red blob taking over a whole city as it grows. I thought this was a comedy at first, because the dialogue was so corny. Poor Stevie struggles with silly lines …

This is like a music show cum movie. This story is about a young man, who is really into Rock and Roll. This movie features Kate Hudson, and she really is a good actress in this movie.
It is about a young man so into rock and roll, …

King Kong vs. Godzilla is the first color Godzilla movie, and in a way, I kind of wish that it was not. Both King Kong and Godzilla look ugly and fake as do the sets and the military tanks and other artillery. I also do not like how the …

I recently had an opportunity to take my daughter to the Shriner’s Circus when they were holding it here in Beaver Dam.
While not the best circus I have ever attended, I will say it was a bit better than expected.
When I took my daughter to the Dodge County Fairgrounds, …

This version of Batman was correctly named. Batman Forever. It should have been forgotten Forever. Because this was the worst of all the current Batman movies to come out in the last 20 to 30 years. It was released in 1995 and never should have left the drawing board. …

Starring the ever lovable Bruce Willis…an expert thief just released from prison is force to restart his profession. Danny Aiello co-stars as his trusty sidekick friend. The plot of this film is well done as it does not fail to entertain and captivate its audience. An all star cast …

I thought Wanted was a very good, interesting and overall rather unique kind of film.
I hadn’t seen the plot before, but was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be an excellent watch.
It has a lot of bizarre aspects to it, and I know a couple of people who …

Enter The Dragon is probably my favorite martial arts film of all time. I think that the master Bruce Lee really showed people how it is done in this movie. The story is starts and beautiful China where Bruce Lee practices Kung Fu in the great Shaolin Temple. I just …

This is supposed to be a more artsy depiction of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Paul Morrissey, perhaps the weirdest filmmaker ever, directed this. It stars Udo Kier as dr Frankenstein, the rest are mostly amateurs. I don’t know if I would call this film artsy, but it certainly was …

It’s Bela Lugosi doing his thing in the vintage movie, Murder by Television. This is going back to the beginnings of TV, when networks and manufacturers were making the concept work and striving to make it better than their competitor.
This movie is all about industrial piracy, so …

This is a remake of the 1949 classic titled “The Heiress,” starring Olivia de Havilland. While the original is hard to beat, the remake is actually not too bad. Of course, there are some rather questionable additions and a definite feminist touch, but what else can you expect from …

While Eminem and Brittney Murphy, along with Mikai Phiffer are very talented, I have to wonder if the movie they starred in, “8 Mile” which was featured in theaters in 2002, was really a film worth watching. The film itself I believe was trying to do something positive …

I suppose watching The Baader-Meinhof Complex has totally alerted me to appreciate movie making of this genre very much. This is quite a deep movie and I have a certain analysis after watching it. In a world now where there are issues of terrorism and many more, watching …

“Batman Begins” is one of the best Batman movies I have ever watched. I thought the actor Christian Bale really did hid character justice and was just the right amount of “dark” for the superhero. I thought it was a big change from the movies “Batman and Robin” and …
