For a Twilight fan like myself, wating for New Moon to be released in the theaters felt like such a long wait. I wanted to watch the sneak preview, but I couldn’t get any ticket, and it was next to impossible too on November 20, 2009, the official …

This is one of my favorite Steve Martin movies. Although the plot is predictable and somewhat cheesy, the character’s ridiculous antics make the movie absolutely hilarious. Martin’s mispronunciation of the word “hamburger” splits my side every time. The contrast between serious and silly members of the …

American Gangster is a movie that I went to this last weekend and I spent $22 for me and my girlfriend to see this over hyped movie and I was very dissapointed in it. The movie stars Denzel and so I thought it would be good but I found …

I had high hopes for this movie. I saw the previews and it looked funny, plus I enjoy Paul Rudd movies and he is the star of this film. Sadly, while his performance and the performance of everyone in the film was wonderful I found it boring. …

I thought that the movie the Great Debaters was an excellent movie. I know that there are a lot of movies like this one, about racism or slavery but this is a good movie. It isn’t like all the rest; it is a totally different movie. It’s …

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the fourth installment in the Harry Potter saga. Now why I do enjoy all of the movies because I finally get to see these characters I have imagined for years, I feel that the Goblet of Fire is the weakest …

With the previous entry in the series (Dead Man’s Chest) boasting a controversial cliffhanger of an ending, fans who saw Dead Man’s Chest were no doubt clamoring for the epic finale to the trilogy after walking out of the theater one year ago. Indeed, for me it was a …

If you want to see a motion picture about the mystery and magic of love, then Miracle in the Rain is the movie for you. This picture sends tingling chills up my spine, the kind of chills from the enduring legacy of a love that can’t and won’t …

Since it was Memorial Day weekend this past weekend I had an opportunity to watch a lot of military movies. One of them was the comedy “You’re in the Army Now.”
This movie, which starred Phil Silvers and Jimmy Durante as a couple of sales people who wind up in …

After the numerous video game-related films like Super Mario Bros, Street Fighter, and Double Dragon that were utter disasters, I’m cynical when Hollywood makes a movie involving video games or a movie is based on a noted property. Once in a while, Hollywood will surprise me with a …

I honestly did not expect much from this movie as soon as I saw the title. However, I decided to try it anyway, and was actually quite surprised to see that it wasn’t have as bad as I expected when I watched it. While I expected that it would …

In South America before World War II a poor man named Esteban marries a woman and works hard in order to afford living their dreams. The film was directed by the danish filmmaker and is a very heartwarming story. The biggest fault of the film in my opinion is …

“The Prestige” is a dazzling, entertaining, smart, and mind-blowing film. It is a rare combination of a fun, enjoyable, popcorn movie and a serious, well-done, cinematic film. “The Prestige” sucks you in and doesn’t ever let go. As soon as you see it, …

Bad Dreams is one of my favorite, unabashedly guilty pleasures from the late eighties. Starring Jennifer Rubin, Dean Cameron and the chick who does the voice for Bart Simpson this movie is eighties schlock horror at its best. I remember seeing this movie late one night on …

Cloverfield, Cloverfield, Cloverfield. Never before have I heard so many people talk about a movie, especially one that was still months away from being released. Starting several months before the movie ever came out, the strange and not very descriptive trailers hit the web and people immediately began talking. …

I would say watch this movie, New In Town (starring Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr.) if you want a dosage of humility, some form of morality watch. This movie is something that I truly praise and it has such compassion, feelings and heart. To make this kind …

This is my favorite movie of all time…and a magnificent film directed by and starring Mel Gibson. It tells the true story of a Scotsman fighting for the freedom of his country after his wife was killed by an English lord. It also has a crazed Irishman who claims …

I am the world’s biggest Harry Potter fan (self-proclaimed). When I’d heard that J.K. Rowling was penning a screenplay for a prequel spin-off movie of the Harry Potter franchise, I was excited but unsure of how a movie without Harry Potter would turn out. However, David Yates, the director of …

I wouldn’t be surprised if I’d seen this movie, Incident on a Dark Street, back when it aired in 1973, but I don’t remember it. Still, it was a TV pilot that had all the makings of a show I probably would watch. It didn’t sell, however, …

I came across the movie Bottoms Up on one of my movie channels last night and didn’t know what to think of it. I did discover the film was better than I thought it would be but still wasn’t the greatest comedy ever either.
The movie, which stars Paris Hilton …

Love and Other Drugs is a romantic-comedy with a hint of drama. It stars Anne Hathaway as Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal as Jamie. This film was released in November 2010.
At first I felt this film was slow to start off. I also have a hard time viewing Anne …

The 2000 movie called “The Tangerine Bear” is a simple cartoon film for families during the holidays that have strong morals and a very cute themed story that revolves around a bear that was created with his smile sewn in upside down so that he is always frowning. This …

Even though I have not watched many movies this summer as a result of a lack of time, the movie “Jack the Giant Slayer” was one of the very few that I did, especially since I was looking forward to seeing it ever since I first saw the trailer …

I enjoy Tim Burton movies, especially the stop motion animation ones such as Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas. So I was very eager to see Coraline. I had high hopes and high expectations. It turns out that I was not disappointed.
Coroline is a movie based on …

I was flipping channels the other day and came across the movie City Slickers. Since it had been a while since I saw that particular film, I decided to watch it.

I decided to sit down and watch a movie with my daughter yesterday before she took her nap. After some discussion (I really did not want to watch another Scooby Doo movie), we ended up watching The Swan Princess. I didn’t know what to expect at first, but it …

I found this movie a lot of fun. It seems to me a mixture of genres: a little bit fantasy with the magic, a little bit action with all the running around and a little bit horror with the bad guy killing people. The movie is well made and …

I finally got a chance to sit down and watch From Dusk Till Dawn last night. And, after years of expecting it to be a good movie, I have to say I was pretty disappointed by it.
The idea of two outlaw brothers taking a family of three (who were …

Epic movie is basically like date movie it makes fun of all the heroic movies/ just other movies like superman, narnia, harry potter, willy wonka, nach libre, Starwars, Pirates of the Carribean, Borat and others. 2 of the six writers of scary movie wrote the script.

Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire contains spoilers.
Usually, a more action-oriented movie like this would be at or near the top of my list of favorites since the action/adventure genre is one of my top two movie genres. But Harry Potter and the Goblet …

As the title implies, I thought this would all about a man who has been naive all his life and by strange circumstances though he tried to get married in the past a few times, he failed until he reaches 40. When I watched this movie, I was …

When I first saw the movie “Tropic Thunder” advertising, all I could think about was that it was not going to be funny because the actor and comedian “Jack Black” was in it. I normally have a problem with that actor as I think he is not a very …

I am reviewing the movie, Phantom of the Opera, the new version, which was released in 2004. It stars Emmy Rossum as Christine, a chorus girl at an opera theatre who is being taught secrety by the “angel of music,” a phantom she believes was sent to her by …

Possibly one of the worst remakes of all time, this movie sank like a stone to the bottom of the river. Unlike the John Carpenter Masterpiece of 1978, this remake just fails. Where the original movie was a masterpiece, this updated cellophane garbage is a huge cinematic failure. …

“Little Miss Sunshine” is an extraordinary comedy. It’s basic set-up as a road trip movie starring a middle-class family begs the comparison to National Lampoon’s “Vacation” or maybe even the recent “RV.” However, this film tackles far more serious issues and delivers it’s jokes with much more class and …

One of the most classic and beloved american high school movies of the 1980s, perhaps not as well known as Fast times at Ridgemont High for example, but Some kind of wonderful is definitely my own personal favorite. In the centre of the story stands a rebellious young man, …

I received the DVD Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs for Christmas. I liked both the movies before it, and I missed seeing Dawn of the Dinosaurs in the theaters, so I wanted to see it on DVD. The movie is a continuation of the last two …

A. Eyes were fluttering at the 30 min mark but pushed through. Glad I did.
2. Would I buy it on DVD ?
A. Yes, it’s a unique movie in a way.
3. Would I take my partner to see it on …

I delayed watching the movie “300: Rise of an Empire” for two main reasons. The first was that I’d become very wary of sequels, since they generally don’t live up to the expectations of the viewer. The second reason was because I heard it wasn’t very good at all. After …

Great movie. Amazing cast starring Mathew McConaughey, Steve Zahn, and Penelope Cruz. The two treasure hunters (McConaughey and Zahn) meet Cruz’ character who is on a mission to find the source of an epidemic. They soon find out that their goals have a common factor and …

I am a big fan of horror movies, but not gore. Most movies with tons of gore seem to use it as a substitute for plot or character development. When I find a movie that is genuinely creepy without resorting to gore or cheap scares, I take notice.
Dorothy …

I remember watching these two cartoon characters chase each other when I was a kid and now, years later, I find myself watching them again. Actually, I’m not the one watching it. My boy who is only 4 years old watches it all the time and there’s nothing any …

I had always heard about the movie “Enemy of the State” but I had not watched it until a couple weeks ago when I saw the movie being aired on one of my relatives cable television channels. I think the reason why I ignored it at first was probably …
