Movie Heavy
Heavy with Liv Tyler, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Debbie Harry, and Shelly Winters.
I must admit that I only watched this movie because it featured the beautiful, alluring Liv Tyler. Then I continued to watch it because I could not figure what it was about. It …
The Lion King
One of my favorite animated Disney movies is The Lion King. It is about all the animals in Africa, concentrating on the lion cub, Simba, who grows into a full-grown lion during the movie. The story is very cute and touching. Beware though; you may need …

Do The Right Thing movie
This is a film by the talented Spike Lee and in my opinion his best film to date. A film about rascism and prejudice, how the true nature of these issues actually looks like. Spike Lee doesn’t choose his side here. All fractions of a society in america are …
Blindness (drama movie)
I read a lot of bad reviews on the movie Blindness and I can completely understand why a lot of people weren’t satisfied with the movie. For one the movie is terribly hard to watch for multiple reasons and secondly, it doesn’t exactly have a very satisfying ending.
Blindness is one …
Pleasantville (fantasy comedy drama movie)
After finally being able to watch it, I believe that the movie Pleasantville is one of those that sticks with you for a very long time, not just because it’s interesting but because of what it represents socially in terms of human evolution.
In the movie, the teenage twins David …
Iron Man 2
Yesterday evening, I received a phone call from my husband. He was on his way home and wanted to know if I would like to go and see Iron Man 2. Well, of course, I said yes. So my daughter, my husband, and myself went off …
What Happens in Vegas film
When I first saw the movie “What happens in Vegas” advertising to be released in theatres late last year I was a bit annoyed that they had released yet another romance comedy movie which I just knew was to going to be very funny or interesting. Another reason why …

Vampires: The Turning movie
There is a good reason behind why I find it hard to like many of John Carpenter’s movies. I find that most of them are mediocre with inferior acting, terrible makeup, a silly plot, and even sillier script and so on. Thus, like many of John Carpenter’s movies, “Vampires: …
Movie Shutter (2008)
I watched only half of the portion on the Thai horror version of Shutter and didn’t complete it because I got a bit bored. But the 2008 version of Shutter really got me out of my mind scared. I decided to give watching it a shot although I …
127 Hours (2010 film)
2010 was the year of survival films. The best one was the Slumdog Millionaire’ award winning director’s following film, based on the actual, tragic and yet unevenly proud and awe-inspiring story of Aaron Ralston.
The protagonist is a passionate, courageous and dangerously reckless climber who has broken …
The Mist movie
I can quite honestly say that “The Mist” was the best horror film I have seen all year.
The acting was spectacular, the casting was great and the script was magical. I was actually quite surprised because in my opinion the horror industry has been lacking in the last …
Man of the House
I am reviewing the Disney movie, Man of the House, starring Chevy Chase and Jonathan Taylor Thomas. This movie is a classic. It is about a little boy (Thomas) whose father leaves he and his mother at a young age. As the little boy grows up, he and …

Project X (movie)
“Project X” is one of the most exciting movies I’ve watched since the beginning of the summer. Funny enough, even though I’ve been more interested in action movies, this is more along the lines of teenage and college humour. In fact, the movie was actually one of those teen …
Click movie
This is one of Adam Sandler’s movie that made me cry. At first it was a little boring since it started with Adam being a workaholic guy for the benefit of his family who is a little piss off because there were different remote control for every house hold …
Flawless movie
When I ordered the movie Flawless from Netflix, I expected it to be a great film about a jewel robbery in the 1960s. As it turns out, I couldn’t even get half way through it.
It’s possible the movie ended up being exciting at some point. It had a couple …
My Super Ex-Girlfriend
My Super Ex-Girlfriend is a nice comedy movie. The movie stars Uma Thurman, Anna Faris and Luke Wilson in the lead roles. Though the movie is entertaining and enjoyable, it some times gets boring and illogical. Even if we accept the fact that Uma is a super girl, we …
Evan Almighty Movie
I am sure many of you with myself included have seen Bruce Almighty , in which the well known Jim Carrey is an average Joe who curses God for almost anything and is given God’s power to see how simple it really is to rule the Universe.
Evan Almighty is …
Borat film
This movie was overall alright. I enjoyed watching some parts of the movie. Some parts not so much. In some parts it was boring or wasn’t really funny. You could also tell that it was a low budget film. There were a couple of parts that were funny. It’s …
Movie Lakeview Terrace
I recently saw the movie Lakeview Terrace starring Samuel L. Jackson at the movies theater. The movie was about a bi racial couple that moves next store to a black police officer raising his son and daughter by himself. From the time the couple moved in …
Signs (movie)
The director of this movie, M. Night Shyamalan, first gained critical acclaim with his psychological thriller with The Sixth Sense. While I agree that was a very good movie, I believe Signs to be the stronger of the two. This movie would probably go on my top …
Bee Movie
I hesitated to watch the film “Bee Movie” since I thought that it would be just a silly little children’s animated film. However, after seeing it going on over and over on cable television I decided to just watch it and evn though it was not a masterpiece, I …
The Movie Black Swan
Black Swan is a relatively new movie directed by Darren Aronofsky. The movie centers around the famous ballet ” Swan Lake”. This movie focuses on the production and around the character of Nina Sayers played by the famous and talented Natalie Portman. I have to say that upon seeing …
To The Devil, A Daughter (R, 1976)
I rented “To The Devil A Daughter” for two reasons: Christopher Lee and Nastassja Kinski. I have always liked Lee’s presence in films, especially The Wicker Man (the original). He had this air about him that was both seductive and a little creepy. …
Hail, Caesar! (2016 Film)
2016 has proven to be a dull year for movies. That’s just my opinion but at this point in time last year, we already got the super amazing action flick Mad Max: Fury Road as well as the state-of-the-art thought-provoking animation flare Inside Out. This year we got an intense …
Tower Heist (2011 movie)
This a 2011 movie but I watched it with my friends just recently this year. It went for approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes. Originally I wanted to watch MI4, but after watching Tower Heist I know that I made the right decision to watch it.
Although it wasn’t …

Thr3e movie
Have any of you heard that a movie is out based on Ted Dekker’s Christian novel “Thr3e”? I didn’t think so. For some reason, Christian movies aren’t advertised wide enough, and this new 2007 release by FoxFaith is no exception. Besides, it was only played in some theaters, and …

ATL (movie)
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 …
The Graduate movie
Mike Nichols’ classic film about the confused young Benjamin who is seduced by a older woman, a friend of his parents, which, he later finds out, is an act to keep him away from the daughter of this family, who he in fact is in love with. This is …
Guys and Dolls
I have a lot of respect for 1955’s Guys and Dolls because it pulled off the surprise sensation of the year, musically. I recently reviewed Chicago and commented there how surprised I was at the performances of non-singers and dancers Richard Gere, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Renee Zellweger. …
Signs (2002 Movie)
There is one word that describes this movie…”BORING”. It’s a long, drawn out, dull, mind-numbing, boring tale of aliens coming to earth. And as always, the aliens have some to destroy mankind…been there, done that, seen it too many times. I guess we should all be wearing tip foil …
Final Destination 4 movie

In The Cut (2003) Movie
I am afraid that I could not help comparing this movie all the way through to Nine and a Half Weeks, the 1987 erotic movie starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger. Now that is an erotic movie and I (and my friends at the time too!) can totally …
Made in Heaven movie

World War 2: The Lost Color Archives
Last week I decided to learn a bit more about the second world war, I think it is important to know how it went and what happened during that war. So I decided to view a documentary about it. The reason I watched this specific documentary is because it …
Shooter
I have always been a big fan of Mark Wahlberg’s acting skills. I like that he’s rough around the edges. Even still, he’s able to nail the emotion that is called for by the scenes he’s in. In this film, Wahlberg portrays a military marksman who …
Beauty and the Beast 1991 BluRay Movie
One of the greatest Disney cartoons and one of the best cartoons of all time is Beauty and the Beast. I don’t care if anyone agrees with me or not about my opinion above. Beauty and the Beast was released in 1991 and it didn’t just broke records, but …

Movie Fear
This movie features now famous Hollywood superstars Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon. I think it’s their first movie roles and they were still in their teens. I saw this movie a long time ago but I was perfectly sure that both of them are gonna be superstars (but who …
Ice Age: Continental Drift movie
To be perfectly honest, I was not expecting the fourth Ice Age movie to be any good at all. The movie actually pleasantly surprised me by exceeding my expectations. Needless to say, Manny, Sid, Diego, and Scrat are just as funny as they were the first three times.
The …
As young as you feel movie
We had some free time last night so my wife and I decided to watch one of the Marilyn Monroe movies we had on our Netflix Player; As Young As You Feel.
I don’t know if I would really classify this as a Marilyn Monroe movie (she only had a …
Jackass: The Movie (2002)
One of my favorite television series when I was in high school was a television series named “Jackass” which starred pranksters Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera and Steve-O. I used to stay up with or without my brother every Sunday night in order to watch it, and I found most …
