Keeping the Faith movie
As far as movies are concerned, I’m not really sure if Keeping the Faith is a good one or just slightly above average. I’m leaning toward the latter but feel Ben Stiller carries it a bit further than that. Without him, I don’t think this movie would be even …
Napoleon Dynamite (2004)
What you need to do while watching this movie is thank you lucky stars that you don’t know anyone like these people for if you do, you would be just as messed up in the head as they are. Then again, if you are just like these people in …

The Jacket (R, 2005) movie
I really like Adrian Brody. And seeing him starring in something so trippy was a treat for me. The Jacket is a really interesting film that merges psy-fi with a little of that thriller drama stuff. Brody portrays a veteran who dies, but then is brought …
The Wedding Ringer - Comedy Movie (2015)
The Wedding Ringer is a Comedy movie that delivers- in parts. Often I was laughing really hard but other times the comedy got a little bland. I did enjoy myself and found the change on the classic ‘loser get’s the hot girl’, interesting.
The story is about a man named Doug …

Friday the 13th

Ocean’s Thirteen was one of the most anticipated “threequels” this year. Among a myriad of third instalments, it was one of those that were expected to improve on their predecessors and it delivers well.
The clever and thrilling plot revolves around Danny Ocean’s attempt at avenging senior Ocean member Reuben’s …
Movie: Saw VI
Well, I didn’t really want to, but I gave in and finally sat down to watch the film Saw VI.

Diary of the Dead, 2007 (DVD)
Wow.
There really aren’t words to describe this movie. I had heard not-so-good reviews about this film but knew I had to see it for myself. I wish I had heeded their call.
Diary of the Dead was crap. Plain and simple. I was so …

The storyline was …
Nim’s Island (2008) Movie
The plot of Nim’s Island is very simple and quite predictable. I only watched it because I liked the cast and I especially expected nothing short of great from Abigail Breslin who played Nim.
The story was really geared towards children with its fantastical theme and Nim’s animal friends. …
The Roommate (2011 Movie)
I knew The Roommate wasn’t going to be a spectacular film or even an original horror from the trailer, but the trailers made it look like a fun horror movie to go see with friends. Although the dialogue is terrible and the movie is extremely predictable if you’ve ever …
Serenity movie
In 2005, fan encouragement resulted in this movie called Serenity. It was a follow up to the science fiction series Firefly. Now, I’ve only seen a couple of episode of Firefly. It just didn’t grab me at the time, so I’m a bit behind the story when …

The A Dog’s Breakfast DVD is pretty terrific. If you’re a fan of David Hewlett or this movie specifically, I’ll start at the top by saying you’ll want to own this DVD.
A Dog’s Breakfast is a quirky independent film, but it’s an entertaining one as well. It …
The Empire Strikes Back movie

War of the Worlds (Movie)
The War of the Worlds! A fairly self-explanatory title that suggests destruction, possible alien invasion, and a most likely hero to the story. These are all things that you would expect, from a sci-fi like this. However, I became surprised when I viewed this picture film, that some of …

El Cantante (R, 2007) movie
