Leatherheads
“Leatherheads” represent one of the first attemps for the actor George Clooney to be involved in a movie, not just as an actor, but also as a director. I say that after seeing Clooney being involved in a lot of dramatic movies, “Leatherheads” comes across as a surprise since …
Clue
I was flipping channels last night and came across a movie classic; Clue.
I rarely meet other people who enjoy this movie as much as I do; which is too bad considering I could watch this film 100 times in a row and never get tired of it.
What’s not to …

I am reviewing the movie, Bad Tidings, starring John Nettles and John Hopkins as Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby and Detective Sergeant Dan Scott. This movie was made in 2003, was produced by Brian-True-May, and was based off the novels written by author Caroline Graham.
In this movie, Bad Tidings, viewers …
Halloween (1978)

Terminator salvation
I already watch this movie in cinemas yesterday. This is the fourth series from terminator movies. I think many new things that are shown and it is very different from the previous movies. For example, the main actor is not Arnold Schwarzeneger anymore, and the world setting is not …
The Day The Earth Stood Still 2008
This movie was one of the best remakes to one of the best classic science fiction films of all time! The new twist on the film offers a modern day yet authentic horror to the realization of what could happen! There is lots of suspense and graphics and has …

The Bounty Hunter (2010)

Movie: The Ruins
When I think of The Ruins the words for decription that come to mind is unexpected surprise. Although I’m a huge fan of horror films, creature features are not the ones I enjoy the most. I don’t even remember why I put this on my netflix queue …
Mystery Science Theater 3000, movie (1995)
Influential films and programmes come in all shapes and sizes, ones that inspire you to go out and make videos yourself. I find there are three categories of influential media: first are the ones that you’re told changed how the media industry works, like —˜Citizen Kane’ or —˜Birth or …
Vexille, CGI anime film
I applaud Vexille for taking a different direction in its CG animation, but the lack of characterization and story really hurt it in the long run.
In the year 2067, an international law restricted the use of robotic technology. In protest of this law, Japan decided to isolate itself from …
Little Miss Sunshine
I kept missing “Little Miss Sunshine” when it was in my local cinemas so I was pleased to see it had been rushed to DVD. The movie stars Alan Arkin, a favorite of mine since I first saw “Catch-22″ more than thirty years ago as well as Greg Kinnear …
The Guardian movie
This is a beautiful movie, and that may be a strange term to use when thinking about or describing the military. This movie focuses on the Coast Guard and a man’s sacrifice to save the lives of countless others, and the influence that he had on the people who …
Planet Earth documentary
I watched the documentary special series called “Planet Earth”.
The shows were about the different geographical bodies of our planet and the animals which live in them.

There …

Rock Rock Rock! movie
Rock Rock Rock! from 1956 is one of those movie musicals that is more like an excuse to show off the music of the day. The plot is thin and barely there, put in the back seat to the various songs that are sung.
Below are some thoughts on …

Ant-Man, 2015 Action, Science Fiction Movie
Much the same as the majority of the Marvel lovers, I didn’t care for the idea of Ant man when it was declared by Marvel. I thought the idea was very silly and faltering on the grounds and I thought “In what manner becoming littler be heroic?” particularly in correlation …

Van Helsing
I remember watching Van Helsing at the movies with my then boyfriend and I was holding on his hands so tight because the movie has its elements of scariness to me. It was a good and pretty tight movie and starring the beautiful actress; Kate Beckinsale and also the …
Terminator Salvation
For those who haven’t been living under a rock for the last decade, the latest Terminator film is the fourth of it’s kind. Perhaps I overestimated the popularity of the Terminator series, but how could you not be compelled to watch Arnie, who happens to be a …

School For Scoundrels
I had the opportunity to watch the movie School For Scoundrels. Now on paper I thought this would be a funny movie. It stars Billy Bob Thornton (Bad Santa, Bad News Bears) and Jonm Heder (Napolean Dynamite) as the lead charecters with Horatio Sanz (Saturday Night Live), …
The New Daughter Movie (2009)
I like Kevin Costner, and I like horror and suspense movies as well, so my mother and I watched this on DVD and during the first parts I thought it was scary, but it depends really on a person because I do scare easily! I found the plot to …
Paranormal Activity movie
The Paranormal Activity movie was amazing. I took my girlfriend to see it and we were both freaked out. There were people in the theatre crying and throwing up.
The movie starts off with a couple that move in together and the boyfriend gets a high quality camera …
Sherlock Holmes 2009: The Movie
Sherlock Holmes is another great performance by Robert Downy Jr. who keeps the story extremely entertaining and exciting.

A man plays with his son on a merry-go-round…another lays calmly in the distance sipping liquid through a straw, he takes aim and shots the man and son; man lives, boy dies.

Independence day
Well, what an intriguing mystery on how the aliens (if there are) may look like was given a hypothetical description in this movie. Yes, it is possible that our technology here on earth may be a little rusty but perhaps those aliens could have done something about their …
The movie Snow White
Probably one of the most famous films of all time Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was one of the most iconic films ever made. Now a true Disney classic , Snow White is a movie that has lived on in the hearts of women everywhere. I personally …
The Lovely Bones (movie)
Ever since I discovered what I really want to do, the director Peter Jackson has become one of my favourites mostly for his detailed work and the way he perceives things; and hence I generally go out of my way to see movies he is associated with in …
If Only Movie
This Movie was released 4 years ago. My friend just recommended me to watch this love story movie by Jennifer Love Hewitt. I never thought that Jennifer is really in acting, but I discovered she begun doing movies since early 90’s. I found this movie interesting because I never …
Movie Teen Wolf
Teen Wolf with Michael J Fox.
The title of this movie pretty much explains the story line, but the magic that somehow is associated with little Michael is hard to explain. This film was fun to watch over and over again and can only be …
