Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Film (2009)

Saw V
Look, I’ll be willing to admit the movie Saw and it’s sequel, Saw II were much better than I expected them to be and would recommend them to anyone. But, after a while, you can have only so many sequels before a franchise gets beaten to death. Unfortunately for …

Escape to Witch Mountain movie
Disney’s 1975 film, Escape to Witch Mountain, is a delight even now, decades later, as I write this review. The cast is terrific, and the story definitely entertains. It’s done with traditional family style and adventure, and even more so, there was a lot of heart, and …

Reggie goes goth in Dead Like Me: Ashes to Ashes, and I’m not crazy about it because she ignores her precious golden retriever, JD. While it’s a temporary condition, it simply turns me off. I don’t like animals suffering in any way due to human eccentricities.

Movie Basket Case

In Her Majesty’s Secret Service movie
In Her Majesty’s Secret Service was different to the preceding films of the series. It was a disappointment to many, but is in my opinion better than You Only Live Twice for example and certainly one of the most underrated. Sean Connery chose not to appear in this film …

Film Avatar
The new movie Avatar has been reviewed so many times, with opinions ranging from “masterpiece” to “unoriginal” and “nothing special.” Well, here is my take on it, after watching it in IMAX. The plot may not be very original. My husband said that Avatar reminded him of “Dances with …

Brewster’s Millions movie
I have seen the 1980s comedy Brewster’s Millions, starring Richard Pryor, a couple different times. But, the other day was the first time I actually got a chance to watch the original, black and white film. I have to admit, that older film was much better.
Basically, the plot was …

Bloodrayne

Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End
Pirates 1 and 2 were sufficient movies, but perhaps they were riding too much on the originality factor. Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End really feels done before. With the same cast of characters, and dozens more, Pirates 3 seems like a 3 hour family reunion during …
The Disaster Artist (2017 Biographical Comedy-Drama Film)
A lot of biopics (or movies about real people) are made about successful people who did amazing jobs in their respective fields. I can’t think of many films that do the opposite until The Disaster Artist. A movie about director Tommy Wiseau who made the worst (as some would say) …

I think it’s fair to say that mostly everyone has read, heard of, or watched the cartoon of “Where the Wild Things Are”. Also, it hit headlines to a somewhat large scale as the 2009 movie was released, giving a new spin to the beloved children’s book. And while …

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas is a crazy musical that is raunchy and often inappropriate for the mainstream and yet is funny and delightful to watch. The language is way too much for my tastes, but I choose to grit my way through this movie because I …
