One Missed Call movie
One missed call is a great movie. It has great actors in it, a good storyline and kept me interested throughout the movie. The ending could have been a little bit better but it was still a good ending. It started off really good, once I started watching it …
Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …
Vacancy
Vacancy is one of those movies that probably shouldn’t work, but somehow it does. The story picks up with a couple driving home from a party thrown by the woman’s family. They haven’t yet told anyone that they’re getting a divorce because they can’t deal with the son they …

Movie: Transformers
I recently watched “Transformers”, the new live action and computer animated flick based on the cartoon from the mid 1980’s. Wow.
Having been a fan of ‘Transformers’ as a child, I had really high expectations for the film. Every single expectation I had was met and exceeded! Right down …

Lady in the Water movie
M. Night Shyamalan hit the nail on the head with this creative endeavor of his. Lady in the Water is a story-telling type of movie in which the main characters, who all share an apartment complex together, join together to help save a young woman who was found in …
I am Legend
…become a good actor ever? Well, in ‘I am Legend’ (the tagline goes something like, ‘the last man on Earth is not alone’), Will Smith sure displays an enhanced acting routine. And that probably due to his constant exposure.
But then again, it’s not all his fault that this remake …
Yes Man (starring Jim Carrey)
Imagine having to say “yes” all the way and not able to say “no” at all. It would be very, very strange indeed and definitely scary. Jim Carrey sizzles pretty much with the character of Carl Allen and from start till finish, I kept on laughing like a …
Remember the titans
Usually I don’t like movies about football or any sport for that matter. I really liked this movie though. It has Denzel Washington in it. I think he did an amazing job in this movie, like he usually does. The movie was good because it had a very good …

Applause Videos in Vancouver, Canada
I just had to be a member of this mom and pop video store, even when I already moved to the city of Surrey. Like the clerk said when I signed up for membership, they really would like to concentrate the service on the community they are located …

As Good As It Gets movie
I was able to watch this movie when I was still in college. I was required to watch it since I am taking up Nursing as a course and so to understand more about Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder my instructor told me to watch this film. Jack Nicholson portrayed the role …
Nanny McPhee
Nanny McPhee starring Emma Thompson, Colin Firth, and a bunch of talented kid actors, was refreshing and entertaining to watch. Firth plays Cedric Brown, a father of seven and a widower who needs to find a wife - urgent! - or his austere Aunt Adelaide will withdraw her financial …
Congratulations, It’s a Boy! movie
Congratulations, It’s a Boy! is a movie I recall seeing back when it was released originally in 1971. It starred Bill Bixby as playboy businessman, Johnny Gaines. Bixby did a fine job here, but it was interesting to me when I re-watched it recently that he looked tired …
Inception movie
Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.
From someone who watched the likes of Rashomon to My Favorite Martian on a daily rotating basis, I sadly found myself living …
Mr Bean’s Holiday
“Mr. Bean’s Holiday” was the latest Mr. Bean movie to be released in theaters. However, at the time it was released, I was unable to go and see it with any of my friends because I didn’t have much time or money. I did not even get to watch …
Alvin and The Chipmunks
Everyone who was born in the 80’s cant not know the chipmunks. These 3 cute fellows who made it big in our televisions. I loved them as a kid and watched every show. Now that they made a movie of it, entitled Alvin and the Chipmunks, i was sure …

I am reviewing the movie, The Interpreter, which was released in 2005. This movie stars Academy Award winners Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn. Kidman plays Silvia Broome, a translator at the UN. Her life is immediately put in danger when she accidently overhears men talking about a planned …
Bad Santa
I’m not a huge Billy Bob Thornton fan so, when his movie Bad Santa came out, I really avoided watching it. However, it was on one of our movie channels the other day and, since there was nothing better on, I figured I would give it a chance.
It wasn’t …
Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon movie
With the Parent Trap III movie bringing in good ratings for the Walt Disney company, another movie was done the same year called Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon. With Susan now married to Jeffrey Wyatt, the family travels together to Hawaii for the honeymoon. Strange, odd even, but …
Iron Man Movie
Action movies aren’t always the types of movies I like to watch. But if my boyfriend can get me to sit down and watch them, then I will. Iron Man is in all those comics that he reads, so I wasn’t really interested in the movies because I really …
Christmas Classics DVD
When i was a child I used to always look forward to the holidays when I could watch movies such as Frosty the Snowman, and Rudolph the Red Nosed reindeer. This Christmas Classics DVD has those two movies on it as well as Santa Claus is Coming to town, …
Superman Returns
At last, someone returns to the heart and soul of the original Superman of 1978, with minor improvements to special effects and setting. This movie could not have been made as is back in 1978. It is a Superman for this generation and I am pleased with its arrival. …
Blockbuster Online
Can I start by saying “Waste of money.”
I can sum up the review in that one sentence, but let me be more specific.
For several months I was subscribed to Blockbuster online and can tell you that it was a terrible service.
Here’s why:
Out of Order. I am a devoted movie …
Chain Reaction
I just can’t help it. Whenever I see Keanu Reeves in a movie, regardless of how good it might be, I instantly have flashbacks to Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and, no matter how hard I try, I can’t take him seriously.
This was the situation when I sat down …

Letter of Introduction movie
From 1938, Letter of Introduction turned out to be better than I thought it was going to be. The center of the motion picture was the character of Kay Martin, as played by Andrea Leeds. When we first see her, she’s returning to the boarding house she …
Cowboys And Aliens movie
Hopefully you have loving friends and/or family members who have already warned you to stay away from this epic abomination, but in case you don’t-or if you are actually an adult considering seeing a movie whose very title screams “AWFUL!” louder than an atomic blast-DO NOT SEE THIS MOVIE. …
The Bourne Supremacy
Very rarely do sequels surpass there predecessors. There are some exceptions, Terminator 2, 28 Weeks Later, etc. I thought very highly of The Bourne Identity and believe that Supremacy surpasses it on every level. I was very nervous when I heard they weren’t bringing back the …
Red 2 (movie)
I’m going to be completely honest and say that I had absolutely no intention of watching the movie Red 2 since I felt that it wasn’t going to be as good as the first movie. My feelings about it strengthened when I saw the trailer for it and noticed …
Summer of Sam movie
Usually, even if it is poorly made, a movie about a serial killer will have at least a couple of redeeming qualities to it.
When it comes to the movie Summer of Sam, this is definitely not the case.
The movie might have been good if they focused on the actual …
Apocalypto
Mel Gibson’s awaited epic drama, Apocalypto, takes place in an ancient indian society in South America before the conquest by the europeans. Like his previous work as a director on The Passion, Gibson has also this time chosen to use actors speaking the native language of the time. In …
Up (2009) movie
I went and saw this with a friend (even though it’s a kids’ movie and we’re both adults) because we had heard a lot of good things about it. And Pixar usually puts out good movies, so it wasn’t like it was a risk or anything. The fact that …
The Thirst Movie
The Thirst is one of the worst vampire movies I’ve ever seen and that’s saying a lot. I actually watch and review horror movies for payment and that means watching a lot of movies that I have no interest in watching usually. The movie follows a young girl who …
Transformers Animated Series - Soundwave Action Figure
The Soundwave action figure in the Transformers Animated Series line of toys is not one of the better ones, but he does have some good features. He sells for between $10 and $12 and you can find him in most toy stores. He is pretty easy to transform, …
“Ping-Pong king” movie
From the beginning, it promises to be a simple, serene atmosphere of the story in Scandinavian cinema directors (Moodysson “Only together,” Hamer “Kitchen Stories” and Kormakur “101 Reykjavik” is just a few items, which first arose at the thought.) One common similarity is the small-town background events, which allows …
Bless The Child
Starring Kim Basinger (Maggie O’Connor), Jimmy Smits (John Tavis), Holliston Coleman (Cody), Rufus Sewell (Eric Stark), Angela Bettis (Jenna)
A horror show with a difference in the never-ending war between good and evil, this time the good triumphed. This is a wholesome horror movie …
Eagle Eye movie
Ever since the good old “Even Stevens” days, I have been a Shia LaBeouf fan. His sarcastic, wise-guy attitude and his ability to pull off “dumb” dialog makes him a very appealing actor. I have enjoyed watching LaBeouf’s career mature as he began to play more serious …
Do Not Disturb movie
Doris Day stars with Rod Taylor in Do Not Disturb. It’s not a big favorite of mine, and it’s not as fun or entertaining as her movies with Rock Hudson and James Garner were. While Taylor’s other outing with Day, The Glass Bottom Boat, was a winner …
Click
I actually enjoyed this movie. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen it but I remember it. I love Adam Sandler. In this movie he gets a remote and uses that remote to get ahead. There are some twists which I won’t give away. It is an enjoyable movie for …
The Prestige (PG-13, 2006) movie
This was an interesting movie. Not quite what I expected. But since I love Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman–so that in and of itself warranted a viewing. However, this is a story that is relayed with care and precision. But I will admit that certain …
The Gift (2015 Psychological Thriller Movie)
Initially, the trailer for the 2015 movie “The Gift” was not as stimulating to me as it was for some people. I found it hard to understand why people were so interested in a movie that looked like it was going to be a cliche stalker film. My interpretation of …
