Little Manhattan Movie
Hands down, this is the sweetest movie ever. Not some sappy chick flick, but a simple romantic comedy.

The Daughters of Joshua Cabe movie

Forrest Gump
I was watching the movie Forrest Gump again for probably the third or fourth time. While not quite as good as I remember it when I originally saw it, I still think this has to be one of Tom Hanks better pictures.
The great thing about this movie is you …
Coraline (Animation)
Coraline, the animation movie, is pretty scary. I don’t know if most kids would love to watch this. However, I find this to be like a dark animation or some sort and don’t mind watching.
Kids nowadays are more braver, so I think they can take this. With voice-over …
Thr3e
This movie was definitely one of those that I will have to watch twice to figure out where they got one over on me. I enjoyed the movie and was really happy to see Marc Blucas, the former Riley on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but the ending was …
Warrior (2011 film)
Gavin O’Connor is not among the most famous of directors but that doesn’t change the fact that once you watch a movie of his you won’t be able to forget it for a long time. I remembered Miracle for a long time, and I still think …
Notting Hill,1999 movie
Notting Hill tells a rather unlikely yet pleasant love story of Anna Scott (Julia Roberts) a movie star and William Thacker (Hugh Grant), a modest guy who works in a bookstore. I enjoyed this movie. Grand is very likeable as the good-hearted, honest William. Julia Roberts does a good …
Movie Tavern
This is by far, hands-down, beyond a shadow of a doubt THE worst movie theater I have ever been to in my life, and I have been to a few pretty bad ones. I have never had a movie experience so ruined as I did the night I attended …

Barn Yard
I really enjoyed watching this movie. I just did not know what to expect from Otis and the hill surfing to the motorcycle ride back to the farm. I think and fell that each character brought that little extra something that every film needs. The twist and turns …

Make It Happen
I watched a movie with a friend, he was so excited about Make it Happen, a movie similar and is actually from the same creators of “Step Up”. Well the movie is really simple, I feel it does need a little more depth in it, I have totally wasted …
Last Vegas (2013 Film)
Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …

Avatar 3D
James Cameron’s new mega hollywood blockbuster Avatar is one of those movies you just have to watch. Whether or not you like the genre, any project costing hundreds of millions of dollars is in my mind something to look out for.
I decided to see it in its full glory, …

A Mighty Heart
This movie, A Mighty Heart is played out by Angie, or known as Angelina Jolie. I have always respected her in the sense that she’s not afraid to play out roles that are scary or pretty threatening.
Like in A Mighty Heart, she plays the wife to a reporter, acted …
The Mask
One of my favourite movies from the mid nineties is a movie called “The Mask” starring the actors Jim Carey and Cameron Diaz. I still think that it was one of Jim Carey’s best movies and it was the best I had seen actress Cameron Diaz look in a …
The Gravedancers
My wife and I are watching a movie on Sci Fi called The Gravedancers. At first, it sounded like it would be a dumb movie; similar to movies we’ve seen dozens of times. However, it turned out to be halfway decent.
The movie focuses on three friends who visit a …
Fright Night movie

Hide and Seek (2005 movie)
I don’t really get the gist of this movie, it’s one of those films that just doesn’t make any sense. From the beginning, things just didn’t add-up, people were dying…claimed to be killed by the little girl’s imaginary friend. One would not begin the believe that the killer was …
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: The Movie

Each episode is fully-packed with exciting stories and adventures to tell …
Movie The Dinosaur Hunter
The Dinosaur Hunter with Simon McCorkindale.
This movie actually angered me. It gave us an alluring title, but then lied to the viewer. It was not about hunting dinosaurs and had so little action that I found myself playing solitaire while watching it.
…

Hulk vs Thor (movie)

Movie Nuts
Nuts has too much profanity in it for my taste, but otherwise, Nuts is a wonderful movie. Never assume because your assumptions may be all wrong. People wanted to judge Claudia Draper, a woman accused of murder. She was a high priced call girl, and that’s …
Alien Nine Episode One
Alien Nine is one of those awesome anime series you only hear about and buy on a whim. After you watch all four episodes and read the mangas you spend several weeks kicking yourself for not looking into it sooner. Well that’s how I felt when I walked away …
Time Traveler’s Wife movie
My daughter and I just watched the Time Traveler’s wife on DVD and we both really enjoyed it. It starts out with Henry (Eric Bana), discovering he is a time traveler at the age of six, right after his mother dies. It was some kind of a getetic thing …
Desperate Escape movie
Though made in 2009, Desperate Escape only premiered on the Lifetime Movie Channel in February 2010. Make no mistake this is a B-movie with a standard, much-used plot and not a single surprise within in, unless you’re new to TV and movies. What it does have, however, …
Amadeus movie
Amadeus is one of the most entertaining movies I have ever seen in my life. I love music and this movie has plenty of good music in it. I think that the character of Amadeus Mozart was just great in the movie. I also really liked the way Amadeus …

Black Snake Moan (R,2007) movie
After watching this film, I think I understand why this movie did not fare so well at the box office. It’s going to take a strong stomach for the majority of Americans to be “okay” with observing a weathered black man keeping a sexually depraved young white woman on …
Oliver Twist,1948 movie
David Lean’s version of Oliver Twist, filmed in 1948, is perhaps one of the best adaptations of the beloved Dickens novel. Dark and depressing, the movie well captures the misery of a poor orphaned child, raised by people who don’t care for him, starved and abused. The casting and …
