“Fanboys” Motion Picture
I did enjoy this movie which shocked me. I am not a fan of comic books, nerds, star wars etc which is the main target audience for this film but I saw a preview for it and it looked funny. About 20 minutes in I almost turned …
Pirates of the Caribbean 2
Great movie!! I LOVED the first Pirates movie and thought the cast was outstanding and once again, they were great! This story tells us that Captain Jack Sparrow has a debt to pay to Davy Jones (who by the way is pretty gross looking as is the rest of …
Images of Bruce Lee
Has Bruce Lee ever made a bad movie? Well, yes and no, he hasn’t. The movies starring Bruce Lee himself, yes they were awesome, and they still are. But after Bruce’s untimely death during the filming of the Crow, several savvy B-movie directors decided that they could easily capitalize …
Quartet (film)
The film is set in an eloquent retirement facility in Britain. The facility is a niche facility since it caters to musicians who are retired. That said the theme of the film evolves around two sub-themes of sorts. One sub-theme is about prior Operatic performers who …
Dracula: Dead And Loving It
This is Mel Brooks’s version of Count Dracula story, released in 1995. All I can say is funny, funny, FUNNY! Just thinking of it makes me smile. Leslie Nielsen as the imposing but a little clumsy Dracula who keeps messing things up, Peter MacNicol as an unsuspecting London solicitor …
Pride and Prejudice, 1995
Pride and Prejudice, 1995, the mini-series, is my favorite adaptation of the Jane Austen’s classic novel. The movie is so well-done, I could go on for hours describing its merits. The script, casting, acting, costumes, music - everything is just excellent. Colin Firth makes a perfect Mr. Darcy, serious …
Gilmore Girls The Complete First Season
There are not many mother-daughter stories anymore, and that is why I really love watching Gilmore Girls. This is The Complete First Season, and I have watch re-runs of it so many times, both on TV cable and on DVD.

Bedazzled-Brendan Fraser & Elizabeth Hurley
I loved this movie because it was so funny. Who would have thought that the devil could be a comedian or so sexy. Elizabeth Hurley was great in this role because she brought a special touch to it. I enjoyed her constant antics and trickery so much. She kept …
“It Must be Love” (2004 Lifetime Movie Network Film)
This 2004 Lifetime Movie Network film, “It Must be Love”, starring Ted Danson and real life wife Mary Steenburgen, was as adorable romance to say the very least. The simple plot that captures the attention of the viewer is hard to ignore. It was also very interesting to see …

The Basketball Diaries
I have watched the movie “The Basketball Diaries” several times, but had not known the name of the film up until recently when I watched it again. It is not to be confused with another American film called “Love and Basketball” which has a completely different plot and setting. …
Dawn of the Dead Movie(2004)
Once again another bad horror movie is made…and a corpse turns in its grave. Directors and actors please give note to this…stop making horror films as you know not what you are doing. You all lack the vision in what it takes to make a decent horror flick. If …
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is the holy grail of comedic masterpieces and quickly became a cult classic for a very good reason. This movie is filled with stereotypical British humor but it is presented in such a way as to not alienate international audiences. The jokes are …
Frozen (2010 movie)
Earlier on this year someone recommended that I watch the suspense movie “Frozen”, which was released in 2010. It took me nearly a week to watch it since I was constantly busy and when I was free I really wasn’t in the mood to do anything else but sleep, …

Shaadi No.1
Shaadi No.1 is a comedy movie.The story is narrated around three husbands, three wives and three girl friends. I think the story is clear. David Dhawan, the director of the movie, showed the consequences that could be faced by husbands, if they cheat their wives and lag behind girl …
Bebe’s Kids
I was looking through one of the thrift stores in my local area and found one of the movies that I will always remember from my childhood and teenage years because of how different it was and a movie that normally, I would not have really watched. Bebe’s Kids. …
Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy [Garth Jennings, 2005]
Please don’t watch this film. Listen to the radio series, read the books, or watch the BBC television series as a far more worthy introduction to Douglas Adams. Alternatively, watch paint dry.
There are a few good things about the film. The visioning of things like the Heart of Gold …
Wild Card, Movie
Wild Card is the latest offering from Jason Statham, and sees him once again partnered with director Simon West. This movie is much more low key than the soon to be released Furious 7, but it does boast a respectable cast (including Stanley Tucci and Michael Angarano amongst others) as …
The New Guy movie
I got bored yesterday afternoon (both kids were taking naps) so I ended up watching the movie “The New Guy” again. I think I have seen that thing about a dozen times now and have to say it is still one of the funniest movies ever.
DJ Qualls is hilarious …
Movie The Illusionist
I must admit I am a huge fan of Edward Norton’s films. Every time there is a new movie of his; I simply jump at the opportunity to watch it. His films are simply extraordinary. In “The Illusionist” one can see Norton at his very best. This is definitely …
‘Keg on My Coffin’, a song by The Push Stars
The year 2004 was a great year for awesome music. It was also the same year that I become aware of a relatively unknown, independent recording group known as The Push Stars. Their song ‘Keg on the Coffin’ was receiving extensive radio play on Alabama airwaves by indie recording …
“She’s out of your league” Feature Film
I really enjoyed watching this film. It is the usual silly movie where a guy goes after a woman out of his league, there are many of them in hollywood at any time, but this one was a little different. For starters, the layers of humor that …
The Hangover
I was expecting big things when I rented The Hangover on DVD; I expected, given the trailers and my friends’ views, that I would be laughing uproariously the entire time. However, although there were some funny and witty moments, I was disappointed. It had good moments, when I did …

Transformers 2
Transformers 2 is one of the best movies I’ve ever watched. The movie matches the intensity of the first Transformers movie but brings the action up a notch. Here is my opinion on the movie.
Plot: 9/10, the plot of the story is well formed and easy to understand. The …
Love Affair movie
This 1939 film called Love Affair is considered a classic romantic piece, and it’s beloved by a lot of people, but I’m not really one of them. I just have so many moralistic problems with the piece in various forms. Part of it is the lack of …
A beautiful mind film
A beautiful mind is a great movie and it deserved all the academy awards it got. It is one of those movies which leaves the viewer with a little pain after watching the movie. Russell Crowe and Jennifer Connelly starred in this classic movie and Russell Crowe is at …
Dallas Season 9 DVD
A lot of people knock this particular season of DALLAS but it really isn’t all that bad. Actually, the only knock it because of what happens in season 10. Ok, let’s explain what this is all about: in the previous season, Patrick Duffy left Dallas to seek other pursuits. He …
X-Men Evolution cartoon
“X-Men Evolution” was one of the best X-men Cartoons I can remember. On the other hand though it was the second X-men cartoon I can remember watching. It came out I think a little after the second X-men live action movie, and I liked it because the drawings were …

Dances With Wolves
We like Kevin Costner as an actor and we saw Dances With Wolves last week. Even after all these years this is still an excellent movie.
Kevin Costner plays a civil war hero who is disenchanted with the status of hero that he received and requested that he be …
Iron Man (2008)
Another interesting movie I saw this week. But if you wanted a superhero movie like Superman you will clearly not find it in Iron Man, because it’s the antithesis of the ordinary loser who becomes a superhero as a consequence of a truly extraordinary event(I prefer those if you …
Swordfish movie
Swordfish with Hugh Jackman, John Travolta, Halle Berry, and Don Cheadle.
Why are computer hackers so powerful and feared? Well this movie answers this question in an action packed and well written story. The all star cast does an excellent job at turning a …
The 40 year old virgin (2005)

Into the wild movie
I watched this movie yesterday and the ending today. Overall it was pretty good. It was more of a documentary about a young boy who goes off into the wild and lives on his own. He burns all of his identification.
I thought it was pretty good overall. It was …
Stephen King’s Rose Red
Watching a Stephen King movie or television show is always a little difficult. The man has a serious talent when it comes to spinning tales that keep the reader riveted and turning the pages. However when those tales hit the big or little screen there seems to …
