The Haunted Mansion (2003)

Film “the horsemen” (2009)
I loved this film for several reasons. First of all when I watch a horror or suspense movie, there needs to be something scary in the first 20 minutes or it loses me. It can be psychological terror, but there needs to be something to draw …
Transformers The Dark Side of the Moon Movie
I remember watching the commercials for Transformers thinking another one? After the first and second one how could they really come up with something original. Though don’t get me wrong I loved the first one, even though Megan Fox was in it. At that point I really had no …
Moulan Rouge movie
Moulan Rouge is the kind of movie that people either really love or really hate. It is a musical but contains no original music. Normally I would think this was a weakness, but the theme of the movie is a nightclub that caters to a generation of young people …
Employee of the Month
I saw previews for Employee of the Month a few months ago but never made an effort to rent it. It just didn’t look that good.
But, when it became available on Showtime, I decided to at least give it a chance. I wasn’t disappointed.
Like most movies that take place …
Blackboard Jungle
Blackboard Jungle with Glen Ford, Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow, and Anne Francis.
I do not understand all the hoopla for this movie as it was very mediocre. Glen Ford is a pleasant enough actor, but not right in the role of a inspirational teacher. Sidney …
Kickass movie
The film “Kick-Ass” belongs to this unique type of works that when they’re ending, the viewer feels that he or she wants to see them again. Matthew Vaughn has proven that it can shoot a screening of the comic, which is virtually as good as the original. Even more, …
Narnia movie
I have just returned from seeing the long-awaited Narnia movie (”The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe” based on the novel by C.S.Lewis). The movie was excellent!! They didn’t change any of the story, the casting and acting was great, and the computer-generated characters were real and believable. The …
House of Wax
It’s settled; Vincent Price is my favorite actor of all time. There is no actor, past or present, quite like him. In this remake of 1933’s ‘Mystery of the Wax Museum,’ an enthused Price plays Professor Jarrod, a brilliant artist whose wax sculptures seem like real people. …
The Princess and the Frog
I took my toddler and my teenage daughter to see Disney’s The Princess and the Frog. We all enjoyed this movie, and my three year old actually set and wathced the whole thing. That is a true testament of a movie that is colorful and exciting to watch. The …
London to Brighton (2006) Movie
I thought this was an excellent film and it kept me totally gripped from beginning to end, but I would warn you that the subject matter of this film is repulsive and it is as gritty as —˜Nil By Mouth’. We are plunged into the world of London …
Entrapment
“Entrapment” is the movie were the likes of Sir Sean Connery mix up with at the time rising star Catherine Zeta Jones. The result is simply a great movie with drama, action and romance making the most of a great issue at the time the milliannium conversion.
In …
Incident on a Dark Street movie
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, …
Meet The Browns - (starring Angela Bassett)
I watched Meet The Browns before and this is a movie starring Angela Bassett. She is a very lovely woman actress that I truly admire. It is not easy being a single mom and that is what Angela’s character, Brenda has to go through. She is a …
The Day the Earth Stood Still movie
Many current science fiction movies rely heavily on special effects and don’t always have the best scripts. Those movie producers should do more research into The Day the Earth Stood Still.
The movie doesn’t have a lot of special effects, even by 1950s standards but is still a memorable science …
Mirrors
Mirrors looked like scary and it is actually, in certain areas of the movie story. I watched it alone actually and Kiefer Sutherland played the lead. This movie is actually a remake of a Korean movie actually, having the title Mirrors too.
What is the story about actually..? …

Oh my goodness. What a movie this is ! It has Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholsen. Two incredibly talented actors. Morgan Freeman is so well spoken, and Jack Nicholsen, well, he’s just Jack Nickelson; awesome. Put the two in a movie together and it makes a great movie.

The Day After Tomarrow Movie
I watched this movie at school a long time ago. The teacher had put it on, and when we watched it, I was one of the only people who paid any attention, and I am guessing that that was because everyone else had already watched it and they knew …
Nebraska (comedy drama)
If you like family dramas, independent films and road trip movies like me, you might find yourself liking the movie Nebraska. It’s different from a lot of other films I’ve seen, the plot is exciting even though it’s simple and it strives to be realistic.
When the movie begins, we see …
V for Vendetta (2005)
V for Vendetta (2005)
Director: James McTeigue. Featuring: Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving and John Hurt.
In my eyes, the movie stands somewhere between greatness and boredom, all depends on how you like your movies. It is told in a non realistic, graphic novel style. The heroes are symbolic and …
Max and Mary (2009 movie)
Today, I watched one of the most wonderful animated films I have ever seen. It was a clay animated Australian film called “Max and Mary”. However, let me first begin my review by saying that it is absolutely not for children, since it contains quite a bit of mature …
27 dresses (movie)
We went to the movies last night and saw an adorable film called the 27 Dresses.
This one starred Katherine Heigl and James Marsden, I believe these two fine young actors are going to be the next Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan duo. They mesh that well together.
Anyway …
Shallow Grave
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, …
Sense and Sensibility movie
Based on the novel by Jane Austen. I have not read the book, so I don’t know how it compares to the book, but it is a wonderful movie filled with twists and turns, heartbreak, and of course, like all her novels, a happy ending. I plan on picking …
Girl Interrupted
I didn’t watch the movie Girl Interrupted because I wanted to. I watched it because my wife insisted on seeing it. While I won’t go as far as to say I hated the movie, it definitely isn’t one I was all that interested in watching.
The movie follows the lives …
Primeval
A movie by Orlando Jones, Gideon Emery, Dominic Purcell, Brooke Langton and Jurgen Prochnow.
To me, a disppointing movie. I was really looking forward to seeing the 20 feet man-eating crocodile in full fledge actions, like what I saw with Anacondas or Lake Placid. It was not to be.
The story …
Gattaca (movie)
The first time that I remember seeing the movie “Gattaca” was some years ago in about 2011. At the time I was a bit baffled because here was this science fiction movie with actors such as Ethan Hawke , Jude Law and Uma Thurman that was released in 1997, …
Mimic 2
Mimic 2 is the second version of the original movie. Did you see Mimic? If you did, you might want to skip this one because you already know what is in store for you! The thing about Mimic 2 is that it is more of the same, mutant beings …
Weird Science (movie)
Even though it hasn’t gotten a very good rating, the movie “Weird Science” is one of those teenage coming of age comedies that I think a lot of people consider as a classic somewhat. I personally never really liked it because it was exceptional, but I liked it because …
Wanted (2008 Movie)
Wanted the movie is a good action flick and mixed with humor. Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy star as the main characters in this movie.
