Face Off (1997)
I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …

The Parent Trap (remake)
I am very skeptical about remakes, and since the original The Parent Trap was one of my all time favorite family films, when I saw the remake arriving on the scene in 1998, I was concerned, big time. Happily, though, I found the remake to be delightful. It’s …

To start, I feel that no amount of words could ever do this movie the justice it deserves…..but nevertheless, I’ll try my best.

Wake Me When the War Is Over movie
This 1969 movie, Wake Me When the War Is Over, is a comedy that has moderate success. I actually think I liked it better as a kid watching it. Now it’s a little on the stale and slapstick side of things for me.
The movie stars Ken Berry …

Movie The Aviator
The Aviator is an extremely long movie starring Leonardo Dicaprio. In the film he portrays Howard Hughes, and although I normally do not like super long movies, this one is kinda good. I will state a fact, Leonardo Dicarprio can not consider me a fan of his work. I don’t …

I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.
