300 DVD Movie
I love so much watching the movie 300 when it first came to the cinema a couple of months back. And although I do not like violence, especially wars, I do feel that the Spartan warriors have a very artistic and creative style of fighting right to the …

License To Wed (2007)
Popular Casts : Robin Williams, Mandy Moore, John Krasinski
Watching this movie really reminds me to “Anger Management” by Jack Nicholson so, for the people who love “Anger Management”, make sure that you watch this movie. To be honest, Robin Williams’ acting is still not better than The Genius Jack …

Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh Movie
It was because of Candyman why I avoided taking a shower for a week as a kid. I was afraid to be alone in the bathroom, much less pass by a mirror where I knew he would jump out and get me. I really liked the first movie and I …
Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame
A classic remake in animation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It’s wonderful use of colours left my eyes watering…and the plot was good. Good guys showed their courage, bad guys showed how evil they can be, and gargoyles showed they had no legs…lol. This is another great animated …
I Stand Alone
What a very dark, terribly grim, and utterly nihilistic movie! This was, more or less, my initial reaction after watching Gaspar Noe’s shocking film, I Stand Alone, just recently.
Upon further reflection, though, I realized that if I were to objectively appreciate the film’s worth, I would say that it …
“Ernest Scared Stupid” (1991 Film)
Many people are familiar with the Ernest films. Each of them are themed differently but revolve around a loveable and child-like man who can be clumsy at times but becomes everyone’s friend and sometimes hero by the time the film is over. Not to mention he makes me laugh …
Movie Back To You

Gabriel
I’ve first known of the movie Gabriel after I saw my aunt watching it. I asked her what’s the movie she’s watching and what is it all about. Since she was not accustomed to telling tales, she answered me directly with, “The angel Gabriel of course.”
Gabriel is an Australian …
Three Days of the Condor movie
Sydney Pollack directed this mesmerizing spy thriller, Three Days of the Condor, in 1975. It stars Robert Redford as Joseph Turner, a man who reads books for a living. He’s employed by the CIA. His very unassuming place of employment seems low key and simple enough. …
Sex and the City The Movie
Sex in the City, The Movie was fabulous. I missed the HBO series because I don’t get HBO. Over two weeks, I rented all five years from Blockbuster.com and couldn’t watch them fast enough. Is it over the top sometimes? Yes. Is there any reality? …
Ice Age 2 movie

Monsters, Inc. movie
My daughter has never seen the movie Monsters Inc before so I made sure to sit down and watch it with her this past weekend.

Drillbit Taylor movie

Reflecting Skin
A hypnotic film with Viggo Mortensen about him coming home after a long time to take care of his younger brother. The Reflecting Skin is the closest thing to cinematic poetry I have ever seen. The boundaries between dream and reality is completely erased here and the only thing …

Black Butler: Season One, Anime
Okay, so I just finished season one of Black Butler and I am having such an emotional turmoil. I have developed such a strong emotional attachment to the characters because of their distinct personalities, mainly Ciel and Sebastian (the master and the butler, respectively). I absolutely love this series …
Moviez
I think that Shakespeare was the one to say that never a borrower or lender be. This is probably wise advice I have found out myself when I have lent out a few items. They have mainly been movies and the most sorely lost, recently, was Farscape Vol. 1 …
Anger Management movie
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 …
I, Robot (starring Will Smith)
I watched I, Robot when it was first released years back and it is something that unexpectedly, this movie is super amazing. I love anything with Will Smith in it and he truly sizzles. Will Smith plays a detective by the name of Del and he is super …
“127 hours” movie
Nowadays, at a time when directors molest us with technical fireworks, and writers write such spins that are so twisted that in the head turns, the movie “127 hours” is a gem. History of simple, painful and true like a biblical parable. Danny Boyle once again showed class.
What does this …
Transporter 3
I been watching the Transporter series for quite a while already. I was clearly impressed on how cool was the “Frank Martin” character.
In this third series, it involves Frank transporting a kidnapped daughter of a Ukranian government official. Clearly for a start, I had difficulties catching up on …

The Other Sister movie
I have just finished watching this movie. I never heard of it before and therefore did not know what to expect. Well, it turned out to be surprisingly good! Touching and funny at the same time, a comedy and at the same a drama. I was afraid that it …
Love and Other Disasters
Brittany Murphy is cute, very cute, and from what I can see that is one of the driving forces of Love and Other Disasters.
This movie is a romantic comedy which appears to desperately want to be different yet is stuck with every cliche you can think of, from the …
Youth in Revolt (Movie 2010)
They say there is always a first time for everything, and Michael Cera totally banged it in this movie! Youth in Revolt is about a sex-obsessed, virgin named Nick Twisp (Michael Cera) who falls in love with a very sweet yet manipulative girl named Shinee Saunders (Portia Doubleday). Their …

The Other Boelyn Girl
The interesting thing about movies based on the life of a real historical figure is you sometimes get a point of view that is different than you would come to expect. And, that difference makes the movie much better than you expected it to be.
The Other Boleyn Girl is …

Death of a Ghost Hunter: movie
Death of a Goes Hunter is a low-budget horror movie. Like most low-budget horror movies, it suffers from some flaws. The acting is not that good, the camera work is sloppy, and the whole thing has an unprofessional feel. However, despite these flaws, I really enjoyed …

Avengers: Age of Ultron - Superhero Movie (2015)
Being a big Marvel fan, and having loved ‘The Avengers’ movie of 2012, I had high expectations for its sequel, Avengers: Age of Ultron. While the movie was watchable, I was let down by a seemingly weak story line and lost acting. I wasn’t satisfied with the movie and I …

Face Off (1997)
I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …
The Pink Panther (2006)
I understand this is just a remake of a movie that was originally produced in 1963 that starred Peter Sellers as the idiotic but kind hearted Inspector Clouseau.
As I see it, this is another one histerically funny movie that has the character combination of Mr. Bean and Johny English …

Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride, An Animated Movie
I have to admit that I am a Tim Burton fan. I loved nightmare before Christmas, but when this movie came out in 2005 I wasn’t really all that interested in buying it because the title was just a little too obvious. The title completely gave away the whole …

Pigs vs Freaks movie
In 1984, the movie Pigs vs Freaks was aired. Oddly, it had been filmed in 1980, and in truth, it was loosely based on a game that had been written up in Time Magazine in 1970. In other words, this movie was a long time coming. …
Tschick (German Movie)
Tschick is a movie directed by director Fatih Akin based on a best-selling Young Adult novel Tschick (translated as Why We Took the Car in English). It’s a shame I cannot find a trailer for the movie with English subtitles even though the film is released with English subtitles. So …
