This movie should not be confused with any of the movies in the Blade trilogy. In fact, that is how I actually watched it since I made the mistake of thinking that “Blade of the Vampire” was actually one of them. However, after watching it I was very disappointed …

Well, when I read the description of the movie Crawlspace (a former Nazi spies on female tenants and then traps them in a secret torture chamber) I figured it would at least be worth a thrill or two. But, after watching it last night, I have to say I’m …

I am reviewing the movie, Ladder 49, starring John Travolta and Juaquin Pheonix, among many others. This movie depicts the courageousness of being a firefighter. Juaquin Pheonix plays a newbie fireman whose captain (John Travolta) shows him the ropes of the job. It isn’t all hard work and …

The Painted Veilis one of those movies that pull son your heart and evokes emotions you thought dead. It’s a story of two lovers, married for the wrong reasons, end up in the middle of a cholera epidemic in China. Somehow, in themidst of tradgedy and pain, the must …

What a silly movie. Obviously, it was inspired by “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” in some weird way. The movie begins with students talking about sightings of some monster on campus. The descriptions of the monster vary, and it is clear that some of the “witnesses” are simply making …

Alfred Hitchcock’s final film, Family Plot is a gentle little final film for one of cinema’s greatest filmmaker’s ever. It is thrilling but it is not one of his trips into the world of stark horror that he delved into with Psycho or the Birds.
And this suits him just …

“Say It Isn’t So” was mainly promoted as the movie from the same producers of “Something About Mary”. However this movie together with the movie “Me, You and Irene” cannot really be compared to the great success of “Something About Mary”. I must also admit that between “Me, You …

On Friday evening my family and I were waiting for my mother to get to my grandmother’s house after she was finished at the hair dresser, so what I did to kill time was watch a little television. That was how I saw the movie “Mr. Wrong” on the …

I haven’t watched any Rocky movies in a while. But, I was up with my daughter the other night and came across Rocky IV.
This is still one of the better Rocky movies ever made; even when it is cut up for television broadcast. Watching Rocky take on a guy …

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 …

Rhythm and Blues Revue labeled with a 1955 release is really just a bunch of performances down like a night club show. There’s no story plot; there’s only the show. However, it is a lot of fun, with a full roster of African American performers.
Below are a …

Watching this, Pay It Forward (2001) on the DVD the other night gave me a bit of self-confidence to embrace life more better.
The movie story stars Helen Hunt, Kevin Spacey and if you remember the talented kid from the movie the Sixth Sense, it is none other than …

I am reviewing the movie, The Ninth Gate, which was released in 2000. Johnny Depp stars as Dean Corso, who is a rare book collector. He has been given the assignment to find the remaining copy of “The Nine Gates.” These volumes evidently have the power …

I am reviewing the movie, Grumpy Old men starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. This movie is about what the title suggests: a couple of grumpy old men. These men are both friends and rivals, and their rivalry will have you laughing your eyes out. Max Goldman and …

The Departed is one of my favourite films, it’s absolutely brilliant. Although I am not generally a fan of the genre, the all-star cast made this a must see for me and it certainly didn’t disappoint.
The plot was something I hadn’t seen executed so well in a long time. …

I love this movie so much! Freddie Prinze Jr. is one of my most favorite actor and as for actress, Julia Stiles isn’t that bad too. Both of them simply rock in this movie I’ve watched before, Down to You. With a cool name as Imogen, Julia …

There is a good reason why this movie has turned into success- no doubt about it, it is one funny movie. A word of caution must be brought though- it is the classical example to the kind of movies that you are not supposed to watch by yourself. The …

I loved The Devil Wears Prada film largely because Meryl Streep was such a bitch. The good news is How To Lose Friends And Alienate People is written in the same vein only the main character is not Anne Hathaway but a smart talking clumsy writer (Sydney Young) played …

Volume 1 of the Vampire Knight anime serial was released on one 96 minute DVD disk on July 20, 2010 in the United States as a dubbed version. Vampire Knight was created by Matsuri Hino, and has become one of the most popular vampire series among anime and …

One of my favourite types of films are historical films, or films which are set in some time before the twentieth century as I have always liked the subject history. The film does not even have to be one hundred percent historically accurate but I always tend to enjoy …

“And Then She Found Me” is very much a by product from the actress, Helen Hunt. For the first time we don’t see Hunt acting only, but she was also involved in screen writing and directing this movie. Although this movie has a great story and a great cast; …

When the Simpsons started on television, I thought it was the best show ever. But, over the past few years, the episodes seemed forced and less and less original.
So, when the Simpsons Movie came out, I had my doubts. I’m glad to say I was wrong.
I skipped seeing this …

Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton shine in Something’s Gotta Give. Something’s Gotta Give is a movie about a woman who is middle aged and she really doesn’t have much of a life besides her work. Her name is Erica and Diane Keaton plays her character. Harry, played by Jack …

The movie “Meet Dave” represents an attempt from the actor, Eddie Murphy in showing that he can do something different and, at the same time, be successful. Although Murphy tried to link the comic world with the fantasy world in one movie, unfortunately he failed miserably to win over …

“Pirates” is simply one of those movies that will not be off the current younger generation’s top films list. For me (and many others, I suspect), it was gateway into now-legendary actor Johnny Depp’s career. The guy’s performance in this movie, while not a magnum opus, no doubt reveals …

Rock of Love with Bret Michaels is now in it’s second season on VH1. I got hooked on the first season because of the complete crazy chicks that were competing for his “love.” It was like a guilty pleasure that I almost felt shame for watching. …

If you love Owen Wilson, you will surely love watching this new latest movie out now. I managed to catch it, and this story is about an ex-convict, who tries to make a new living for himself, and works in a retirement hotel.
He wanted to win back the …

Ok, for the record, it’s a bit too early in the year for Christmas movies. For God’s sake, it isn’t even Thanksgiving yet. But, at least the Christmas movie I came across tonight, Deck the Halls, is funny.
I’m actually not a huge fan of Matthew Broderick or of Danny …

Transformers was one of the most awaited films of 2007. And honestly, I wasn’t really that keen on watching it, maybe because I never was aware of the animated series in the 80’s. But because one of my closest friends really wants to watch it, I decided to come …

I watched this IMAX movie, called Encounter in the 3rd Dimension, with my boyfriend, and it was the darndest thing I’ve ever been to. Now, don’t get me wrong about the movie, though short, (but isn’t all IMAX movies supposed to be). I was fed up with …

It Follows is a story about a monster that is sexually transmitted, and once you have him following you, he doesn’t stop until you’re dead or you transmit it to someone else. This movie is another fantastic addition to the horror genre, and is well recognized as being one of …

How I became familiar with the movie called “Stiff Odds” was that I saw it in one of my friend’s dvd collection, and after he insisted that despite the weird cover it was actually a pretty good movie, that he was positive I would enjoy, I decided to borrow …

I had this film in my Netflix queue, and finally purchased it somewhere else before viewing it. I really wish I had seen the movie first, or I would not have bought it. As much as I like Carrie-Anne Moss, I simply found her role in …

Normally I enjoy most creature and scary animal movies, but I found this one a large disappointment. When I first heard about Cemetery Gates I was quite eager to see it as I had never seen a horror movie about a Tasmanian devil. So when I did see it, …

The Pickford Theatre located at 1416 Cornwall Avenue in Bellingham, Washington is my favorite movie house ever. The theatre tends to show thoughtful, intelligent films from around the world. Recently I’ve seen “The Queen,” ” Vajra Sky Over Tibet,” and “Little Miss Sunshine. Currently “Iran in Fragments” is …

I was one of those people who was interested in watching the movie “The Thoery of Everything” long before it became nominated for various awards and won several Oscars. This was because I was thrilled with the idea of a movie about Professor Stephen Hawking’s life, his romance with Jane …

Sequels usually flop, unable to capture the magic of the original. Rare cases include Superman II and The Empire Strikes Back. Back to the Future Part 2 joins that rare class, mainly because it is told partly from within the first movie. The filmmakers incorporated scenes from the first …

Night Watch is a movie I saw going on recently when I was at someone’s house watching television. At first I had mistaken it for a movie from the 80s I had seen going on several times, but after a while I realised that it was actually a movie …

I am reviewing The Case of the Greystone Inscription, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

I just became a member of Netflix Online and I absolutely love it! I have never tried Netflix until recently and have always thought it was confusing, but being able go online and instantly watch certain movies is amazing. You search through movies available to “Watch Instantly” and once …

“The Bad and the Beautiful” is an MGM movie filmed in black and white, lasting 118 minutes. It is a taut, well-crafted movie that left me alternately liking, despising, and admiring Jonathan Shields (Kirk Douglas). These emotions seemed to be those of the main characters as well.
“The Bad …
