Movies Reviews
Sin Nombre movie
I follow movies that receive attention at small film festivals like Sundance or Cannes with great interest, because I generally enjoy these movies so much more than big-budget Hollywood blockbusters. I read reviews about “Sin Nombre” after it won some international awards, and I finally saw it on DVD …
Movie Kate and Leopold
We watch a lot of movies, it is our past time, and if you have cable then you don’t have to spend a lot of money going out. I watched a movie the other day called Kate and Leopold. Meg Ryan played Kate and I like Hugh …
Night at the Museum
‘Night at the Museum’ directed by Shawn Levy has very peculiar story which interests my a strange manner. In general, it is movie which kids will enjoy more. But, that does not mean that it does not deserve adult viewers. Ben Stiller, playing the lead role has acted to …

Candyman
This is a 1992 movie, and for some strange reason did really well, you could call it a cult classic. The plot is weak even for a science fiction film, it leaves huge holes in the story, like when there talking about the “Candyman” they talk about him like …
Movie: The Full Monty
My wife and I were doing some housework after a weekend yardsale left us a bit disorganized. Since we wanted some sort of distraction, we ended up turning on the TV and came across the movie The Full Monty.

Ex Drummer (comedy movie)
While looking for another comedy to watch, I came across a not-so-popular movie that was considered as a gem by a number of people who watched it. I was informed that watching it generally evoked one of two strong feelings in an audience as I would either love it or …

John C. Reilly
I have just rented “Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story” but have not watched it yet. But if the movie is anywhere near as funny as this guy is when he’s in a comedic role, then I am sure that I will be guffawing a lot throughout. …
The Little Mermaid
This is one of my most love animation movies. I saw this film when I was still a child and I enjoyed watching it so much. This movie made my imagination work and also left me a lot of lessons. Although 3D animation was not yet that advance at …
Somewhere (2010 Film) by Sofia Coppola
I’ve been following Coppola’s works in recent years. Somewhere is Coppola’s latest film, and that’s enough reason to make me want to watch it. I was partly influenced by a write up published at nytimes. I’ve only had the chance to see it the following year. …

What I liked about this movie: A lot of movies like this have a bunch of actors and actresses that aren’t well known. This one actually had three very well known players; Liam …
17 Again movie
I highly anticipated the comedy “17 Again”; I’m not a huge Zac Efron fan, but the movie looked cute. Unfortunately, it didn’t deliver.
I liked the main character’s best friend; he was a millionaire nerd whose brilliant mind earned him a ridiculous amount of wealth, but whose lack of social …
Yaadein (movie), 2001
The yaadein (remembrance) of the film Yaadein in perhaps no longer in any of our mind apart from its lovely songs and charming promotional advertisements (Lol). This movie released in 2001 and was directed by Subhash Ghai. I remember how lovely the promotional advertisement of the film was and …
All the President’s Men Movie
About the two investigating journalists who discovered the remarkable and shocking Watergate scandal in the early 1970s, something that came on the news in the whole world afterwards.
Even though I think the story here is interesting and that both Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford are great as the two …
Autopsy movie 2008
Autopsy is a film from After Dark, aka the famous After Dark Horrorfest films that release “8 films to die for” every year for the last few years. I generally find their films to be of better quality than the usual“B”horror movies that are available. This one …
End of Watch (movie)
I remember I couple months ago, one of my friends and I spontaneously decided to go see a movie while we were out. At the time the most interesting thing that was playing seemed to be the movie “End of Watch” of which I knew almost nothing about. I …

Thor The Dark World Film
What happens when the gods lose their power to something more powerful and ancient than themselves, something primal - the complete darkness? “Thor :The Dark World” is a film in which I think that the team of Marvel reaches a whole new level in their skills… Expertly served storyline …

Bordertown (R, 2007) movie
I don’t usually like J. Lo in films. But where this movie is concerned, I could easily overlook her mediocre acting skills. This movie follows the political red tape surrounding the investigations of hundreds of Mexican women near the U.S. Border. According to the …
The Secret of My Success
Michael J. Fox stars as Brantley Foster in The Secret of My Success. The film came out in 1987 and to me, Fox still looked so young. Even in Family Ties, he seemed very young to me. Here he’s leaving the farm to go make it …
Resident Evil: Apocalypse
Resident Evil: Apocalypse with Milla Jovovich and Siena Guillory.

Just My Luck movie
Lindsey Lohan isn’t exactly a star that draws me to a movie, so when we got Just My Luck from Netflix I was a bit skeptical about it.
Overall though, it was a pretty good movie.
Lohan plays a woman who is extremely lucky but ends up giving an unlucky guy …
Happy Feet Movie
I’ve watched Happy Feet for about three times. It’s a fine movie, nothing special to me. Although lots of my friends think it’s a very funny movie. I can’t find anything so funny in the movie though.
It’s probably good for children, I don’t know, I can’t …
Balto
Made in 1995, this animated film features the vocal talents of Kevin Bacon, Bridget Fonda, and Bob Hoskins, among others. It’s also based on a true story, very loosely based on a true story mind you.
Though there are many talented, well-known actors who lent their talent and names …
Tale of Despereaux movie
Synopsis: A young mouse and his rat friend swear an oath to help a princess.
What I liked about this movie: While there were quite a few things I didn’t like about this movie (more on that later), I will say the film did have its moments.
For one, Despereaux definitely …
The Disaster Artist (2017 Biographical Comedy-Drama Film)
A lot of biopics (or movies about real people) are made about successful people who did amazing jobs in their respective fields. I can’t think of many films that do the opposite until The Disaster Artist. A movie about director Tommy Wiseau who made the worst (as some would say) …

Ted (2012 movie)
Ted is one of the best movies that I’ve seen this year. It’s funny, the writing is great, and the actors are extremely witty. Believe me when I say it is not what you will expect, because it wasn’t what I expected to see. Seth Macfarlane shines all the …
The Punisher (2004)

The original release date for this movie was April 16, 2004 for United States audiences. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Crime/Thriller and stars …
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009 Movie)
First off, I did not go to see this in theaters. I waited until it was available through Netflix streaming before I actually saw it. That being said, this movie was absolutely amazing even without Imax, surround sound, and in 3D. It’s based off a children’s book, and according …

Green Lantern movie in 2D, starring Ryan Reynolds
First off, I must say that I am a very big fan of the Green Lantern comics and have been for over a decade. The reader needs to know of my bias towards this film. Unfortunately, there will be a few spoilers, but I’ll try to keep them at …

Unknown (2011 Movie)
The combination of Liam Neeson and so many comparisons to 2008’s “Taken,” I was more excited about 2011’s “Unknown” than I should have been based on the preview. Although I wasn’t really excited about the movie’s premise, I was still hopeful. It was a really big letdown.
There’s no …
The Haunted Mansion (movie)
I remember when the movie The Haunted Mansion was released back in back in 2003 when I was in high school. I had no interest in seeing it then because it looked like it was going to be one of those silly children’s movies. These days, I’m a little …
When a man loves a woman
The best way to describe the movie “When a Man Loves a Woman” is a touching story about alcoholism and how it can break a healthy family apart. Med Ryan’s and Andy Garcia’s interpretation in this movie is simply wonderful. I am sure this movie touched a lot …
Movie Just Like Heaven
“Just like Heaven” is simply a great romantic movie with a touch of magic and fantasy. What would you do if you start seeing a ghost? I personally would scream out loud and run away, however David Abbott went to find help to assist her crossover the other side! …
