Danny Boyle’s Shallow Grave is a high tension, psychological thriller that unfortunately, tends to be overshadowed by his much more acclaimed Trainspotting. This is unfortunate, because in my opinion Shallow Grave is almost as fantastic as that film, and deserves the attention of more people.
The film follows three housemates; Alex, …

In all honesty, I love this movie. Although I’m not a big fan of musicals, I found this movie to be very entertaining, funny, and romantic. The production was really something that amazed me and these are probably the reasons why it is one of my top ten favorite …

I took some time to think whether to review The 40-Year-Old Virgin or not. It has been many years before that I’ve watched this but each time I’m thinking of whether to review this, I think again. Truth is, Steve Carell sizzles in this movie and is very …

I make it a point to watch as many of the Oscar contenders as possible before the awards are handed out in February, so that my enjoyment of the ceremony itself can be magnified by my rooting for this or that actor, director or writer. This year I wasn’t …

Deadgirl is a little known movie that was released in 2009. It tells a very dark and horrific story, but manages to do so without too much gore. Still, the movie would only be good for a mature audience. The plot revolves around two high school …

This is a good movie if you like horror movies and you don’t mind gory things. If you are a person that doesn’t like gory or cannot take it I don’t recommend it. It kept me interested, the acting was good, I wasn’t really bored at all. There were …

This weekend on the family channel they were showing the Harry Potter series. Today we watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,
I liked this movie very much, as we watched it on television we noticed that there were extra scenes placed in this movie, guess …

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 …

I must admit that I was skeptical about this film at first. I didn’t realize that the movie was based on a real “era” in Atlanta. Furthermore, I did not realize that the movie was written by Antwone Fisher. The story centers around (4) teenage friends …

Having read the book multiple times, I was horribly disappointed with the two-part miniseries “It”, aired in 1990 on ABC. There was so much left out; I can’t believe Mr. King even allowed it to be produced.
The plot of the mini-series only loosely follows the plot of the original …

I will be honest, I have never even seen the first Alice in Wonderland. I wasn’t even planning on watching this one, but my boyfriend bought it on Blu-Ray and Blu-Rays are pretty expensive so I figured I would watch it with him so he wasn’t wasting his money. …

Ok I really really really tried to watch The Unborn. These kinds of films are typically right up my alley. However, for some reason I got totally turned off by this film. I think it’s because there seem to be so many Asian films wherein …

Why is our society so crazed about sex, sex-related humor, gay humor and such?? Or perhaps this is not the society but just Hollywood? Go figure… Here is another movie full of that stuff, a movie that probably could have been good otherwise.
Blades of Glory is about two figure …

Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies. It’s the story about an average ‘joe’ who gets chosen to participate in a military experiment. He was supposed to be cryogenically frozen for 1 year, but something goes wrong and he wakes up 500 years later. To his suprise society hasn’t …

I saw the movie —˜Knowing’ last night, and I have to say that Nicolas Cage has once again lived down to my opinion of him as a poor actor who should have quit after —˜Raising Arizona.’ The movie is terrible, which isn’t all the actors’ faults, as the plot …

We recently rented the DVD “Must Love Dogs,” starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. Or, I should say, my wife rented it.
This is definitely a roma-comedy, a chick flick, more appropriate to a girls nite with Ben & Jerry than to a nite with her husband.
There is some …

I just finished watching the DVD of the Film “Sister Helen.” I had never heard of the 2002 movie but saw it on the shelf at my local library. Since I could check it for free, I figured I had nothing to lose and checked it out.

I had been encouraged to watch this year’s Oscar winning movie, “The Hurt Locker”, for a few months before I finally sat down and put the film on. While I don’t usually like war movies, I thought that this particular production might be worth a few hours of my …

Painfully powerfull. In a world where special effects have replaced good old fashion acting and writing this movie stands alone and swings at the audiences mind. Knocking us back to a world where good old fashion sweat and curage rule!
The timing of this thriller holds the audience suspended …

If you think there is always a second chance in life, you may reconsider your optimism after watching this movie. I definitely did. Second chance seems to be a privilege granted not to every society, and losing the right to it before even turning eighteen seems to be unjustified …

This is one of the best suspense and thriller movies I have ever watched, this movie is all about Teddy (Leonardo Di Caprio) investigating a murder/lost disappearance case within the isolated and remote Shutter Island, which is an asylum for the mentally insane. Teddy goes with his partner Chuck …

Deep Impact is, yes, one of those catastrophy-blockbusters dealing with the subject of an asteroid hitting the Earth, and the way humanity tries to deal with it. All in all, it is a mediocre film, but in a way it did catch my attention. I think there’s much more …

As far as Will Smith movies go, they are usually some of the better action films out there. One of his first ones, Enemy of the State, falls into this category.
