Stephen King’s The Mist (Movie)
When it comes to most of Stephen King’s movies I know to almost always expect three things: horror, mentally ill people and jaw dropping endings. This movie gives all three. It is a psychological horror that basically tells a story about a group of people who hide out in …
“TIME AND TIME AGAIN” Movie

The Nun’s Story: A Film by Fred Zinnemann (1959)
I have heard this film is one of Audrey Hepburn’s acclaimed performances. I personally believe it’s also the most critically-absorbing film in the entire Audrey Hepburn —˜genre’. The austere screenplay was very consistent to the point that it almost felt like watching an art film. The …
Boy A movie
A favourite in small film festivals, and winner of several awards, the movie Boy A lives up to all the hype. The story is powerful, and the actor who plays the lead role, Andrew Garfield, is brilliant, especially considering this is his first big film. This is one of …

When I first saw the trailer for the movie “The Raven” I thought that it seemed like it had a lot of potential. I might not have known at the time that the title was the same as a poem written by Edgar Allan Poe a little before he …

MosquitoMan (2004)
This movie was much better than I expected it to be. Don’t let the corny name or the image on the DVD case’s cover stop you from watching this fun horror film. And if you’re thinking it’s a bit similar to “The Fly”, you’re right. It’s a more modern …

Breakfast at Tiffany’s movie
Breakfast at Tiffany’s is another classic that I keep watching repeatedly. In fact, just recently I bought the collector’s edition. This film is just amazing, and not only because actress Audrey Hepburn lights up the screen with her presence and fashion style. I think the film …
Film Up
Could a thousand balloons filled with helium gas really uproot a house from the ground and send it hovering in the sky for many days? Is it really possible for an old man and a boy to travel inside a flying house in open air without feeling out of …

Queen - Don’t Stop Me Now - Single
This for me is just one of the most positive and upbeat songs you can ever find to listen to. So much so that it’s gradual but inspired build up is so recognisable that I have seen it stop dance floors with people singing along with Freddie.
I have to …

Movie Toy Story
Although its not my favorite Pixar movie, Toy Story is such an important film because it started Pixar’s rise to greatness. Toy Story was made in 1995, but is still a visual treat for the eyes 13 years later. Toy Story is a modern classic that may be …
Halloween (1978)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
There aren’t many movies that I’m willing to spend the price of admission on. Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull is one of the few I am.

SALT (2010) Movie
The Movie is about an American spy named Evelyn Salt who after being exposed as a Russian spy is then hunted down by her fellow CIAs and ends up saving the world from a cold war.
The suspense started pretty soon enough. Within 15 minutes, Jolie is on …
A Friendship in Vienna movie
This movie premiered on The Disney Channel in 1988, but it is still one of the best movies that was ever shown on that network. Thirteen year Inge Dournenvald and Lise Mueller are best friends in Vienna, Austria. This is an amazing thing, because it is 1938, …
The Exorcist 3
I am reviewing the movie, The Exorcist 3, starring George C. Scott and Jason Miller. It is a sequel to The Exorcist and The Exorcist 2. The Exorcist was excellent, but the second one was ridiculous. With this in mind, I didn’t expect much from the third …

I watched this movie on lifetime move network today. Overall it was pretty good. The actors were really good in it, and they had more than one actor that was good. A lot of times in the life time movie networks there are only one good actor in the …
Swing Hostess movie
Swing Hostess, a 1944 musical film, felt very much like a predecessor to Singing in the Rain to me. I thought of that almost all the way through, although it wasn’t the same story exactly.

Let us face it: Professional Managers with respect to Presidential campaigns have suffered from bad reputations: I think similar to “Buy Here —“ Pay Here” car lot salesmen; or even ambulance chasers. Their respective images were made worse by the book: “The Selling of the President …

Movie-Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Bye Bye Birdie
I just adore Bye Bye Birdie and always have. It’s an upbeat, delightful movie musical with a cast that includes one of my favorites, Dick Van Dyke. Dyke’s good-natured demeanor make him perfect for this role as a budding musician with an overbearing mother and a very …
The Departed movie
Whenever Martin Scorsese comes out with a new film, I can’t help but become excited, and The Departed did not disappoint. Scorsese brings his wonderful cinematic vision we have seen in such movies of his as Goodfellas and the Raging Bull. The filmaking is also excellent which …
Ogre movie
We ended up watching a DVD last night of a movie that originally aired on the Sci Fi Channel last year; Ogre.
When we got the DVD, I wasn’t sure what to expect. It looked like it would be a somewhat crappy movie that would rely heavily on blood and …
Ratatouille
Ok … this is another cute mouse movie by Disney. It’s quite alright … but I don’t think it was geared towards a wide enough audience. I thought it was so cute; the mouse cooking for the guy who wanted to be chef; and the transformation the chef made …
