The Sting (1973)
“The Sting” is one of the most fun movies I’ve ever watched. I was taken in again and again as Paul Newman and his gang of con artists conned me and other members of the audience. The worse thing about it is that I can’t be fooled again when …
Movie: Angels & Demons
I finally got around to watching the movie Angels & Demons last night. And, to be honest with you, that decision was based almost solely on the fact I couldn’t find anything better to watch at the time.
I have had the book this movie is based off of for …
A Haunting in Connecticut
One of our good friends is a movie buff and so has a collection of hundreds of DVDs which he brings over from time to time so we can all watch them. One of the ones that he bought that really intrigued me was the movie ‘A Haunting in Connecticut’, …
A Kid in King Arthur’s Court
I have seen a book entitled “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” in my aunt’s library at her house which was written apparently by the author Mark Twain. However, I have never made an attempt to read the book so I am not sure if it is related …
The Bourne Triology
The Bourne trilogy is one of the best modern day action trilogy’s of all time! This starts with a long and tragic story of a highly trained intelligence agent named Jason Bourne who is played by Matt Damon! Damon is picked up in the ocean by a fishing …
House of 9
When I watched House of 9 a couple of days ago, I had hoped I would get a psychological thriller. What I got was a dragged out drama with much more talk than action.
The plot of the movie should have been a good one. Nine people are kidnapped and …
Chuck and larry
Hey i currently have a girl friend so ya i ve been watching a lot of movie and i can honestly say that iam a good movie critic. Now i hadnt seen a comedy movie in a while because lately ive been watching sappy lovey dove movies and as …
The Happening (2008) Movie
I really did not know what to think of the movie The Happening. The trailer looked promising, the actors were supposedly good, and the writer and director is M. Night Shyamalan. He was the one who gave us the Sixth Sense, the Village, and now, this.
The Happening stars Mark …
Grindhouse
Grindhouse is a film featuring 2 films in one, Planet Terror, and Death Proof. Planet Terror was directed by Robert Rodriguez, Death Proof directed by Tarantino, the style of both films is that of old fashion horror movies, Planet Terror stars Rose McGowen and Bruce Willis, it’s a zombie …
My Best Friend’s Girl movie
I love Kate Hudson’s movies. They’re the kind that you can just enjoy because of the theme. Most of her movies are romantic comedies and when i feel really stressed, all I need is a good laugh. Recently, I watched My Best Friend’s Girl. I have a lot of …
Movie Superman
If you super hero fan type than you have to see Superman. It has a great story plot that explains exactly how superman became who he is. Did you know that the movie did so well it came in first in it’s first week? Yes! It’s filled with action, …
The Getaway (1994)
Doc McCoy, played by Alec Baldwin, and his wife Carol McCoy, played by Kim Basinger, are out for one more score. Getting themselves prepared is not a very bad thing to day at all, and if one is to be good at the craft one does, then practice is …
Feature Film “Twilight Saga: Eclipse “
I just watched the movie Eclipse and I did really enjoy it. I have seen both of the other movies, and this is the best so far. I believe this is mostly because the budgets have gotten better and the actors have grown. Most of the …
Brightstar (2009, Jane Campion)
This film is a thing of beauty, a joy forever.
If you are familiar with the poetry and life of Keats I guarantee you will love this film. Quotations from Keats letters, and from his poems are cleverly interwoven into the script, never seeming forced, cliched or trite - but …
Happy feet movie
I first watched this movie was on dvd with my little cousins. It was quite interesting with the nice dancing and singing. The storyline was pretty good. One thing I didn’t really understand was how Mumble, the main penguin went back his own specific colony of penguins, but I …
Gladiator Movie
A spectacular film starring Russell Crowe as Maximus the General and a slave gladiator. The action in this film is not great but it is OK, not too gruesome, not too bloody. The plot is on point and it delivers the goods. Joaquin Phoenix plays a great bad guy …
The Matrix
The Matrix is one of the best movie I have seen in my entire life. The storyline is just awesome. And the acting is just great. My favorite character would of course have to be Neo. The whole concept of The Matrix just blew me away. I was so impressed …
The Truman Show
I had planned on going to bed early last night. But, I ended up staying up late anyway because I came across the Truman Show on one of our movie channels.
It was the first time I had seen the movie in years and it was every bit as good …
Glitter Movie
Review of the movie Glitter. 2001.
Starring Mariah Carey, Max Beesley.
No wonder screenplay writer Kate Lanier took a four-year hiatus after her work on Glitter. I’m just surprised she didn’t have extensive plastic surgery, change her name, and flee the country in disgrace. Fortunately for her however, there is plenty …
Shadows by MIlco Mancevski
When first time i heard the title “Shadows” i said “I must watch this!”. Maybe i am coming from small country, maybe Macedonia is not Hollywood but that does not mean we can not make good films.
Long time people were talking about those “Shadows”.And finally the film came in …
Vantage Point (Movie)
Vantage Point was a lot better than I was expecting. I had read some less than stellar reviews about the movie both online and in print, and I also had a lot of friends who were disappointed by it. Since I’m a big fan of Dennis Quaid though I …
Meet the Spartans DVD
I recently borrowed the DVD of the movie “Meet the Spartans” from a friend and watched it with my family. I must say this has to be the second movie after “You Don’t Mess with Zohan” which I would consider as a crappy movie.
The movie was first released …
The Chinese Feast
‘The Chinese Feast’ is a Cantonese film directed by Tsui Hark. The actors are Leslie, Anita, Kenny etc.. Kenny plays the role of Kit and Leslie the role of Sun, a former member chef.
In this movie, Kit is a master chef. He is an expert in cooking. Once there …
Requem for a dream
Requem for a dream is an excellent movie which shows the effects of drug addiction. This movie is a very well made movie with some excellent performances by the lead actors. Ellen Burstyn, Jared Leto and Jennifer connolly played the lead roles in this movie and all of these …
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 …
Holiday Wishes movie
I love to watch a good Christmas movie, and goodness knows, I’ve watched a ton, but even so, I have to admit that this 2006 TV movie, Holiday Wishes, is just a so-so film that doesn’t really emit any emotions of consequence. It’s a filler with mostly mediocre …
Silence of the Lambs (1991)
Silence of th eLambs (1991) is a drama film directed by Jonathan Demme and is rated R by the MPAA
Silence of the Lambs is the story of a FBI trainee named Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) who is sent by her boss to interview a serial killer known for his …
Behind Enemy Lines (2001)
I enjoyed watching this movie directed by John Moore and shown in 2001 and has a runtime of 106 minutes. I find Owen Wilson cute. He plays the role of a combat aviator Lt. Chris Burnett. A soldier by profession but one who does not want to …
The Jane Austen Book Club
I don’t recommend watching The Jane Austen Book Club if you are the acting pack type of movie buff or if you are just looking for an action love story filled with romantic notions and all that.
For this movie is plainly about a book club started out by …
Shakespeare in Love,1998 movie
This movie is typical Hollywood fluff, with overdone “passion” and sexing. The storyline is okay; it could have been a decent movie if it was done right. Shakespeare, played by Joseph Fiennes, is struggling with a writing crisis, he thinks he has lost his gift and searches for a …
Movie: “Ghost Town”
A surprisingly funny and charming movie, “Ghost Town” tells the story of Bertram Pincus, an unpleasant dentist reminiscent of Ebenezer Scrooge. His attitude toward life: bah, humbug. When he dies briefly on the operating table, he wakes up with the unwanted ability to see ghosts. It doesn’t take long …
The Lake House, Alejandro Agresti Movie
Can two people be the pair met, despite their time separated by two different? That is the question of the film. It is a lonely doctor, Kate Forster. Failing to make the spears she decided to move from the lake house for this, he lives. Kate prefers to live …
The Europeans (1979)
This 1979 movie has failed my expectations, big time. It is based on a novel by Henry James, and the story is set in 1850s � my favorite timeframe, so I thought I was going to love it. A wealthy American family lives a comfortable life in their house …
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind film
How the story unfolded was quite interesting. It’s a beautifully woven tale of two souls who, after having been separated by science, still manage to find each other again, because of a force far greater than any form of futuristic technology — love.
I enjoyed the cast of characters of …
Failure to Launch
I must admit that I prefer the on screen couple, Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson however the on screen couple presented in the romantic comedy “Failure to Launch” with McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker isn’t bad at all. These two actors managed to present a romantic comedy which is …
The Boss of it All
The Boss of it All is a movie that I love watching. It is very goofy, and makes fun of the corporate industry, and what really goes on inside. It targeted and has a sarcastic message to those bosses who have it all, and making wry decisions.
The …
Lost in Space movie
A space adventure in which a family travels to outer space to explore new worlds. What they don’t know is that they brought an insane doctor with them who has his very own plans for the mission.
I like the them of space exploring in films, and this film begins …
The Killer (movie) July, 2006
This is really one stupid movie that I have ever watched. The movie titled The Killer is a complete out and out copy of Collateral. It released on 21st July, 2006. I expected it to be some kind of a better movie as it is a Mahesh Bhatt production. …
Jack and the Beanstalk movie
Now here is a classic, which some will like and others will not. The movie is Jack and the Beanstalk, a 1952 production that features the comedy team of Abbott and Costello. If you like their humor, you’ll probably enjoy this version of the fairytale classic quite …
Feature film “The Switch”
I am only sort of a romantic comedy fan. You can usually predict what will happen in the end and that bores the heck out of me. I did see the ending coming, it was predictable and trite, but the movie was still ok. Jennifer …
House Of 1000 Corpses
The film was completed in 2000, and finally released in 2003, written and directed by Rob Zombie and starring Bill Mosley, Sherri Moon Zombie, and other lesser known actors. The film is extremely dark, violent, and shocking, it’s not to many movies that make a person feel sick and …
Movie Bruce Almighty
I like to watch movies and one of my favorite actors is Jim Carry
He can play almost any type of roll and you will enjoy him. We watched the movie called Bruce ALmight the other dayand in this move it also starred Morgan Freemond. I enjoy watchin him act …
Green Zone Movie
There were several reasons why my husband and I decided to watch the movie Green Zone when it opens in Singapore this week. The trailer looks enticing and exciting enough. The other reason was of course the main actor, Matt Damon. We both love watching the Bourne trilogy and …
Jammin in Jamaica
Jammin in Jamaica is a kid movie intended for teenage girls. It’s not exactly my cup of tea though but my girls like it. It’s about a group of teenage girls and their boyfriends who play in a band. The boys get an opportunity to go to Jamaica for …
Sexy Beast movie
This ‘Sexy Beast’ movie was recommended to me by a friend who usually has good taste in films. He was right, I really loved it. Gangster films are not usually my thing but I thought this film was really special and can only partially be classed as …
Sisters (movie)
Sisters is about two evil sisters, Danielle and Dominique. Danielle and Dominique are twins who are pretty weird. In fact, this entire movie is weird and full of gore and guts. It seems that Danielle and Dominique will not let anything stand in their way, and they stand up …
Odd Girl Out movie
I had often wondered what happened to the actress Alex Vega after the Spy Kids trilogy, as it seemed that she had just disappeared for a while. However, last night when watching the Lifetime television station, I saw her in a movie called “Odd Girl Out”. It was that …
The New Adventures of Heidi movie
It’s hard for me to find a Heidi tale that I don’t like. Over the years, I’ve seen a lot of them and most of them have their own unique quality that makes it work. That’s the case with The New Adventures of Heidi from 1978. …
Man of The Year
Man of the Year is a good comedy. From all of the trailors I thought they would actually let the comedian become president not that he would get the truth out in time. I enjoyed the movie I just think it would have been funnier the other way if …
