A wealthy, ruthless TV executive is the focus of this modern day remake of the classic tale of the story of Scrooge. As the story goes, this person is cold hearted and career driven to the point that no one likes to be around him yet alone work with …

I actually enjoyed the opening credits of 1938’s Secrets of an Actress movie, which began by having a woman’s hand unlocking and opening a diary. She turns each page of the diary until the credits reach the end. It was different and unique.
The story itself is one …

Cecelia Ahern, the author, is the 22-year-old daughter of Ireland’s Prime Minister. It is quite rare to find a book about a 30 year-old-widow written by one so young, as many writers tend to write on younger characters based on their past experiences. Ms Ahern is brave to try …

Killa Season is an amature movie which had a very low budget and very few cameras and when you watch the movie you will see why nobody should ever make a movie this way. Appearing in this “gangster” movie are rap stars Juelz Santana, Hell Rell and Cam’ron and …

I was completely surprised when I compared this one with those of my favorites Bond movies. I have always been a great fan of Bond movies and have watched almost all of them. I have to say that this movie really disappointed me and hurt my expectations. First of …

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest is the sequel to the very popular Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. In my opinion, a disappointing sequel. In my eyes, it is the death of a sequel when the makers of the …

There has been a lot of reviews about this famous movie ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ so why another review? Well I want to express the views of many Indians like me who dare to think different.
It is made by a British director Danny Boyle, so it may …

This movie which acts like a musical is very enjoyable to watch. I really liked the singing, and found Nicole Kidman great in her role. The coincidences were funny, and the entire movie was just silly.
The play within the movie was ridiculous, but how they tied it into the …

Anger Management. I knew of the movie, had no interest in seeing it. Jack Nicholson stooping down so low as to star in a movie with Adam “Billy Madison Boy” Sandler. Not for me.
So, now long after I think this movie is ancient history, I turn …

The sweetest thing is one of my favorite drama comedy romantic movie that I like. I watch this movie more than three times I think. First time I saw it in the DVD, and after that I saw it in my television station. There’s so many sex scene or …

I recently discovered a better movie theater to take my family to, the MJR Marketplace Cinemas in Sterling Heights. It was built on the same location as the old National Amusements Showcase Cinemas which was torn down a few years ago.
The layout of the theater is excellent, the flow …

OK, so I absolutely bashed the first two prequels in the series. And while Episode 3 does deserve some hate, it’s not near the level of hate I gave to the first two. Hayden Christiansen still can’t act and he and Natalies relationship is still one of …

What is this movie about? I can answer that in two words: bar dancing. There is nothing else in it, really. No story to speak of, just a few events to get the main character to work at the bar - and then it is all about girls dancing …

“The Transporter” series is definitely my favourite Jason Statham movie. In an interview, Statham admitted that he got a lot of attention in Hollywood thanks to this movie series and the other, also very popular, “Crank”.
What is great about these two movies is that normally, in Hollywood, the second …

I just saw the Columbiana movie last night. This is a revenge-driven movie that stars Zoe Saldana. The movie centers into the life of a child that has been corrupted because of a traumatic experience she experienced when she was still a child. Her father was involved in a …

It is a true pity that the movies “The Kingdom” and “Rendition” were released in the same year. I feel that these are both true exceptional movies with a great message to send across to humanity; however they will end up being compared with each other.
These movies tackle …

Taken (2009) is, without a doubt, the best action movie I’ve seen in years. Everything about the movie shines, from its pitch-perfect acting, to its well-written story and dialogue, to it’s incredible non-stop action sequences.
Liam Neeson shows that he can still carry a movie despite being in his late-fifties. …

A predictable horror story for kids who don’t read good books and therefore have poor taste, easily satisfied with some action & easy scares. A body is found near a school, and a bunch of high-schoolers decide to pull a prank by creating an online serial killer personality. They …

I was eager to see the movie “The Martian” for two reasons. The first was because I saw the trailer and it sounded as if it would be a good watch, and the second reason was because the director Ridley Scott is known for his iconic movies. After I finally …

The movie …

Since the dawn of movie making, there have always been a few actors that take weird, off the wall, ecentric roles instead of traditional leading men or leading lady roles. Such is true with current Boston Legal actor, James Spader. He appeared in a great 1994 film called Stargate …

It’s an oldie but a goodie, in my book. The Abyss, 1989, stars Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio and Ed Harris as part of a civilian diving team hired by the military to search for a lost submarin carrying nuclear warheads. When the team, both civilian and military, are disconnected from …

Director: Mike Binder. Featuring Adam Sandler, Don Cheadle, Jada Pinkett Smith, Liv Tyler, Saffron Burrows and Donald Sutherland.

White Noise is yet another scary movie that wasn’t so scary. The movie is about people who try to contact ghosts using EVP. I mean some small parts of the movie were actually scary. But I thought most, of the movie was not scary at all. So as I was …

This movie, for those of you out of the loop, is about Bob Dylan. The name is taken from an obscure Bob Dylan song that the director, Todd Haynes, went on an epic journey to find a studio recording of, only to find one in Neil Young’s basement.
It stars …

When the movie Billy Madison first came out, I thought it was pretty good. Maybe it’s because I’m older and wiser now, but I absolutely can’t stand it any more.
Adam Sandler is OK as a rich 20-something who repeats his classes from kindergarten up in order to inherit his …

This movie features Jennifer Lopez in an action/suspense movie, it was really cool watching her in fighting scenes, I never thought she could do some moves as she’s such a diva, and in this movie Enough, it’s literally her breaking free from her abusive husband who beats her even …

Even though we already had a movie to watch this weekend, my wife insisted on renting another one called The Crazies. She said she had heard from a friend that it was very good.

Nacho Libre with Jack Black.
As a fan of Mexican Lucha Libre, or professional wrestling as it could be called, I thoroughly enjoyed this film about this national past time. It appears to be a comedy farce film, but it is too accurate in its …

I honestly wasn’t expecting to enjoy The Pride of Jesse Hallam, a 1981 movie that I recently had the chance to see. I just didn’t think it would appeal to me. Plus, the star was Johnny Cash (playing the title role), and usually I don’t tend to …

I loved the first Larry the Cable Guy movie I saw, the one where he is a health inspector. So, I figured I couldn’t go wrong with the movie Witless Protection.
