Hamlet movie
Shakespeare’s classic drama set in a modern environment, directed by Kenneth Branagh. I think it’s close to impossible to create a convincing film out of a Shakespeare story. Most of the times it just feels like filmed theatre, and that means one might as well visit the theatre instead …
The Harvey Girls movie
For a long time before actually watching The Harvey Girls, I really wasn’t sure what to expect, but then once I finally sat down and told myself to watch, I got it! The Harvey Girls tells of a group of women who moved west to, well, be glorified …

2001 Manics Movie
While watching the movie 2001 Manics, I couldn’t help but think that it was the ultimate B-movie which I was usually so turned off of watching. It had lots of sex, gore, bad acting and young people which is what most B-movies usually has, not to mention the lack …
Land Before Time movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Land Before Time. This is a timeless classic. It is a story about Little Foot the long neck, Sarah the three horn, Spike the sharp tail, Ducky the swimmer, and Peetry the flier. Each one of these characters is a dinosaur. This …
Murder Once Removed movie
Murder Once Removed is a murder mystery movie, as might seem obvious, that starred John Forsythe as the handsome physician, Ron Wellesley. He’s known to be a ladies man, but at least one man, Frank Manning (Richard Kiley) believes that Wellesley is a murderer. In fact, Manning …

Wild Things 2, thriller film by Jack Perez
Here’s a sequel to that movie with two famous actresses who kissed each other on screen. Ticket sales were pretty high for Wild Things and video sales were much bigger just for one scene. It would only make sense to cash-in on that one sequence and make Wild Things …
Movie Cabin Fever
I would have to say that Cabin Fever is one of my most favorite horror movies. You might think that it is crazy that I say that, but i have a reason for saying that.
the theme of the movie is a flesh eating disease that is responsible …
Maid in Manhattan
The best way to describe the movie “Maid in Manhattan” is one of Jennifer Lopez highest grossing movie. The critics didn’t like it, but the general public simply loved it. Personally I wasn’t impressed by this romantic movie due to the fact that the story seems to be stretched …
Tenth Avenue Angel movie
Tenth Avenue Angel is the film that introduced me to Margaret O’Brien when I was a kid. I remember it playing on television numerous times in my youth, and I always watched it. It was a movie that always pulled on my heartstrings. The movie was …
Black Knight-movie
I am going to review a film called black knight starring the black actor Martin Lawrence.He plays a character called jamal sky walker.It is about an african american theme park employee named Jamal Skywalker who finds himself in 14th century England after falling into a lake near the theme …
Inside Man (2006)
Inside Man has rekindled my interest in Spike Lee movies (or —˜joints’ I should say) as it was thoroughly enjoyable, witty, with a great twist. Lee was doing quirky, witty hard-hitting movies before Tarantino came along. The film starts with Clive Owen, playing the part of Dalton …
Flowers in the Attic (2013 movie)
Growing up as a teenager I loved reading books that were written by the author V. C. Andrews. I was always fascinated by the plots and the female main characters of her stories, even though she’d been dead for longer than I’d been around. While there were always new …
Step Brothers movie
I received the movie “Stepbrothers” in my mail from blockbuster by mail a few days ago and watched it that day. Overall it was a good movie. My only complaint about it is that I felt like something was missing in it. I also think they showed too many …
Point Break
The best way to describe “Point Break” is two great young acting talents, Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze team up in a movie in opposite roles with a lot of action, nail beating moments and great scenography. Apart from having a great story, the interesting aspect about this movie …
The Hunt (2012)
As a fan of cinema entertainment I indulged in watching the movie called The hunt. I choose to watch this movie because of the actor Mads Mikkelsen was the lead Role. Besides that factor, I was drawn to the plot of the film. I must warn that my …
Moviez
I think that Shakespeare was the one to say that never a borrower or lender be. This is probably wise advice I have found out myself when I have lent out a few items. They have mainly been movies and the most sorely lost, recently, was Farscape Vol. 1 …
Walking Tall movie
My wife and I came across the movie Walking Tall on television last night (the re-make, not the original) and, because we hadn’t seen it in a while, decided to watch it.
I haven’t seen the original yet and can’t compare the two. But, this one, starring The Rock, was …
My Bloody Valentine
Have you guys watched the 3D movie, My Bloody Valentine? I was so scared out of my mind watching this and since it is on 3D, it makes it all the more scarier especially when the psychotic killer throws the axe at the victims.
You feel like you …
The Lion King
The Lion King is the greatest 2-D animated movie ever made in my opinion. The film has great characters and great messages peppered throughout the whole movie. This movie aroused everyone of my emotions. I found myself crying and laughing off and on the whole movie …
12 Years A Slave (Movie 2013)
“12 Years A Slave” is a 2013 Biography, drama and history movie directed by Steve McQueen. I found the title of this movie to be very attractive making me imagine about some kind of slavery story. I didn’t recognized any of the main actors in the movie except Brad …
Redbelt movie
I watched this movie recently on one of the movie channels. Overall it was a pretty good movie. Honestly I felt like it is a movie that has good things and bad things in it. One of the good things about this movie is it is a unique movie. …
Movie How to Deal
Once again, I have to admit, I’m becoming more and more impressed with Mandy Moore whenever I see her in a movie. And, this time it was on Lifetime.
Her film How to Deal is actually an interesting look into the mind of a teenager. She comes from a divorced …
Bobbys World cartoon
Bobby’s World was always one of my favorite Saturday morning cartoons. I thought she show was really cute and funny. Bobby is so funny and cool. He has many wacky adventures and fun times.
I think the animation in the show is pretty good. It looks pretty cool but yet it’s …
The Princess Bride
To blave, that’s what this story is about. And if you find that inconceivable, try to stomach the kissing scenes and see where that gets you.
Seriously, this fairy tale is so full of enjoyable characters that the movie could have gone on for quite some time and I would …
Spice And Wolf Episode 1 (Anime)
Spice and Wolf Episode 1 begins with a wolf deity talking about how the village that worshipped her no longer needs her. A traveling merchant named Craft Lawrence arrives at a village that is holding a festival for the goddess Holo the Wise Wolf. He wants to speak …
Blockbuster Video
Although I don’t watch a lot of DVD movies, perhaps 2 a week at the most, I do like to be able to rent the movies I want to see when I want to see them, not weeks later. I generally don’t make it to the movie theatre more …
Arachnaphobia film
If you are looking for a film that will be sure to give you a creepy crawly feeling, be sure to rent Arachnaphobia.
I am not afraid of spiders (nor anything else 1000th of my size) but this movie had me checking my blankets before crawling into bed.
Starring Jeff Daniels, …
Movie - “The Unborn”
A lot of horror movies, especially in recent years, just don’t live up to the hype: “The Unborn” is an exception.
Casey Beldon is being haunted - or possessed, she’s not sure which - by the spirit of her twin brother, who died in the womb. But is it really …
Amadeus Movie
I had missed the movie Amadeus when it first came out, so I’ve discovered it only recently, having rented a tape from our local library. It was surprisingly good. F. Murray Abraham is unforgettable as Salieri, the court composer struggling with jealousy and questioning God’s decision to give an …
School of Rock (2003)
When a hard rock guitarist is voted off his band by his fellow members, and with no other form of income with a growing rent debt, he is forced to get his lazy ass out and find himself a real job in order to pay for his way through …
The Notebook Movie
I watched the movie The Notebook some time ago and thought it was a pretty decent, unique movie. But, today, I ended up watching it again. I’m not sure why. But, I just didn’t like the film as much as I thought I did.
Perhaps my views and preferences have …
The Smurfs 2 - Movie
The great performance (600 million dollars) of the first feature movie about the Smurfs (2011) made the continuation of their adventures an inevitability. And it is already a fact - three-dimensional, dynamic and colorful as usual. In the center of the story is Gargamel, who is a superstar in …
“Salt” 2010 action film by Phillip Noyce
Who is Salt? Apparently the female answer to James Bond, fortunately with a twist.
The film, titled simply with its protagonist’s surname, was directed by Phillip Noyce and has recently hit the cinemas. I decided to watch it looking for some simple, mindless entertainment: and while the film had a …
Sky high movie
“Sky high” is an awesome movie, especially for kids. It is a story of a school of “superheroes”. I saw this movie few days back, and I really liked this movie, it is a very sweet story, and it has everything starting from high school romance, rivalry, raging, and …

I Am Number Four - Teen Psi-fi Movie
I took my 11 year old son to see “I Am Number Four” on the weekend, not expecting too much; and was surprised by this movie. It is your typical teen movie featuring a boy-likes-girl scenario, social issues and some type of major obstacle to over come. …
Apt Pupil (movie)
Based on a novel written by Stephen King, the film is about the disturbing relationship between a man and a boy, characters who share a terrifying secret.
As the plot unfolds, young Todd Bowden, an intuitive student, pays rapt attention to class discussions about the holocaust. This appears to heighten …
Big Hero 6 (Movie)
I keep seeing pictures of this movie in several sites I’ve been surfing and I got curious. Since this movie is from Disney, I didn’t expect it to be a ‘Hero story’. But they did a good job.
Starting from the design of ‘San Fransokyo’, it is a bit weird, …
40 Days and 40 Nights
I was expecting Josh Hartnett to shine in the DVD movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights. Don’t get me wrong; Josh is a darling and he acted really well but the storyline is a real bummer for me.
It starts off with Josh character, Matt being dumped by his super …
Movie The love guru
This was an overall alright movie I thought. I just didn’t care for it all that much. I think it was the type of movie it was. I think it could have been a lot of better especially with the actors that were in it. Jessica Alba, Mike Myers …
The Saint (1997 movie)
Val Kilmer takes on the multi-characters of a secret agent spy/thief. The focus is cold fusion as a means of generating heat for an entire nation. On scientist, character play by the ever beautiful and stunning Elisabeth Shue, tries to put the pieces together for the revolutionary breakthrough of …
The X Files: I Want To Believe Movie
Just about 12 hours ago, I went to see the X-Files: I Want To Believe movie. I knew there was a lot of mixed reviews in regards to the movie, but I really wanted to see for myself as I am an X-Files fan at heart.
I went and saw …
Movie Christina’s House
Christina’s House is the kind of movie that I shouldn’t like, but somehow I do. It’s the movie that I keep telling my friends to watch, even though they’ve seen it and hated it. I have to admit that the movie is pretty cheesy, but I still somehow find …
Jack Black
OK, I know I should like Jack Black. But, I just can�t seem to find any respect for him.
The problem I have is he�s one dimensional. He can�t do drama or action. It has to be comedy. Even when he tries to be serious, you can�t help but think …
Order of the Pheonix
I am reviewing the Harry Potter movie, Order of the Pheonix. Order of the Pheonix is the fifth movie in the series, and stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter. Fifth year is scarier than ever. Harry hasn’t heard from Dumbledore all summer, nor heard a thing from Ron …
