You, Me and Dupree movie

The Bag Man (2014)
The Bag Man is a film which I did enjoy watching despite its technical flaws. What kept me glued to it was the fact that the contents of the bag weren’t revealed until much later. At first, when my friend recommended me to watch The Bag Man I had …
Kissed (R, 1996) movie
This was one of those films that was completely missed by the mainstream. The subject of necrophilia is quite a tricky one. But somehow the director of this film found a way to introduce the topic with not just sensitivity (is that even possible?) but …
The Score movie
Robert De Niro, Edward Norton and the legend Marlon Brando plans to steal a valuable item together, with Brando as a less active part of the crew. De Niro wants to retire and make it his very last job, but something isn’t quite right. Who can he trust?

Lying to Be Perfect (movie)
Some time ago, the thought of watching a movie on Lifetime or a Lifetime Original movie was not appealing to me. However, these days I’ve found quite a few of them to be quite interesting and “Lying to Be Perfect” is one of those.
The movie is about a …
The Professional: Movie
The Professional is an absolutely fantastic film. Normally, the crime genre isn’t really for me. But this story is beautifully told about an assassin and how his life changes when he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of a 12-year-old girl.
First of all, the acting is excellent. The assassin Leon …
Wild Card, Movie
Wild Card is the latest offering from Jason Statham, and sees him once again partnered with director Simon West. This movie is much more low key than the soon to be released Furious 7, but it does boast a respectable cast (including Stanley Tucci and Michael Angarano amongst others) as …
The Battle of Algiers (1967) - a militaristic movie
One readily used type of warfare, since the middle 40s has involved resistance fighters– not part of any particular governmental militaristic group. The resistance fighters attack standard armies; then seem to evaporate or blend back into the populous. Further, grenades have been thrown by individuals of civilian …
Little Manhattan Movie
Hands down, this is the sweetest movie ever. Not some sappy chick flick, but a simple romantic comedy.
Kudos to the one who came up with such a cute idea about making a movie about first love. I mean, there are tons of movies out there about first love, but …
Warlock movie
I found this movie a lot of fun. It seems to me a mixture of genres: a little bit fantasy with the magic, a little bit action with all the running around and a little bit horror with the bad guy killing people. The movie is well made and …
Audition (movie) 1999
This film has left me pretty stunned and I really need to watch it again. Yes, I think it is very good but it is certainly not to everyone’s taste. There is a rather famous, or infamous, torture scene that is truly agony to experience, but I …
Grey Gardens (Movie) 2009
Grey Gardens is a 2009 (made for television I think) movie about the two stars of a 1970s documentary of the same name - ‘Big’ Edie and ‘Little’ Edie Bouvier Beale. This eccentric mother and daughter team was the aunt and cousin respectively of Jackie Kennedy Onassis, the …

Krull
This film quietly snuck up on us in the early 1980’s. It’s a science fantasy film that, boiled down, is essentially the classic plot: boy meets girl, boy loves girl, boy gets girl.
The boy and girl are Corwyn and Lyssa. And in the beginning they are to be married, …
Wishmaster (1997)
This movie is the classic case of being careful what you wish for. I have always been telling my friends and family that very same quote year after year, time after time and it has never proven me wrong to date. Whether you are talking about real life situations …
Touch of Evil movie
Next to Citizen Kane probably the most successful film by Orson Welles. A Mexican agent played by Charlton Heston gets involved in some kind of conspiration, and something leads him the think the man behind it all is a police detective played by Orson Welles himself.
Welles uses a brilliant …
Storm of the Century by Stephen King
Have you guys ever watched Storm of the Century by Stephen King before? It is one of Stephen King’s movies and I watched this sometime back. Now, any story from Stephen King will always be laced with mystery and wonderment and sometimes the characters are being developed quite …

Anastasia 1997 BluRay Movie
When this movie came out in 1997, I had never even heard of the small child that was being portrayed in the film. I was informed by my mother that the movie was based on the 1956 movie about the return of the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna. It …
Brave Heart movie
This is the fourth year when I first saw the movie ‘Brave Heart’. Since then I have seen this for innumerable times. My favorite Mel Gibson is in lead role and as usual he shows his strong caliber in this movie.
Winning some Oscars will not suffice to say all …
The incredibles
I just recently had the chance to watch this movie on dvd. My friends were telling me about it and how different it is from all the other super hero staff around. It is indeed with a special kind of humour, not as dark as the hero comix we …
Tamara [DVD], horror movie
Oh great a horror movie from Lions Gate that has a hot leading lady, trendy music, and enough promised gore to make a seventeen year old boy jump for joy. This has got to be a classic Halloween movie that will stay in our collections forever. Oh wait never …
In Bruges movie
Film festival bring out both the best and the worst of man’s creativity. It can bring out movies that everyone knows and loves, but sometimes, there are movies that aren’t that well known, at least outside of certain countries. Such was the fate of “In Bruges” a classic black …

King Kong Movie
I recently went to go see King Kong at a movie theatre. It was everything I expected. King Kong was full of action, suspense and romance. This movie protrays the well known saying, “beauty killed the beast.” King Kong is one of the best movies in 2005. And anyone …
Watchmen movie
Watchmen was an absolutely amazing film. If you can get the chance though, I would read the book before you go see the movie. Why? Because half of the greatness of the movie is appreciating how accurately they kept up with the panels from the comic; even shadows …
Rec
I watched this before, titled Rec and it was during 2007, I think. Pretty darn scary, if you ask me. Remember The Blair Witch Project..? Well, it is something like it, but different in a way.
You will get to see a recording or some sort …
The Cell, 2016 Movie
John Cusack plays novelist Clay Riddel, a writer who is on his way home from a trip. He standing in the airport when all hell breaks loose it seems. He had just finished speaking to his son on his cell phone when he lost the signal, as he searches for …
Movie: Stonehenge Apocalypse
About a week ago, I saw an advertisement for a SyFy original movie called Stonehenge Apocalypse that looked somewhat interesting so I set my DVR to record it. My wife and I got around to watching it yesterday afternoon and, while OK, it wasn’t nearly as good as expected.
OK, …

The Thing from Another World movie
This film was directed by Howard Hawks back in the 1960s, but for some reason the famous director let an unknown filmmaker take all the credit. Perhaps it wasn’t good for is rumour to be affiliated with a story like this, I’m not sure.
Anyway, the plot centres around a …
Harold and Kumar go to whitecastle
This is not your typical comedy. It is a comedy with a purpose. I laughed so much until I cried. The plot consists of two best friends who get an overwhelming craving for whitecastle burgers. They refused to stop at nothing to get their fulfillment. After so many mishaps …
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is not bad of a movie, if you ask me. Starring Matthew McConaughey, the beautiful Jennifer Garner and the very talented Michael Douglas, this is a movie not to be watched for those loving romantic comedies.
There are quite a few laughable plots, especially …
MR Woodcock (movie)
As I have stated before we love to watch movies. We went to Arundel Mills Mall and saw this movie there. Rob saw it on sell at FYE in Arundel Mills and he purchased it to add to his collection.
Mr Woodcock stars Billy Bob Thornton, Seann …
The Chumscrubber movie
The first time I saw the movie “The Chumscrubber” was one time on the summer holidays when I went to my cousin’s house. I only saw the end of it at that time, but I remember it was enough to make me want to see the rest of the …
Funny People movie
Judd Apatow promised the world with Funny People and delivered an atlas. Not even a good atlas but a boring one without any pictures. If you saw the previews and advance publicity for this movie and were expecting a comedy, or even a few laughs, like myself you will …
He’s Just not that into you movie
I rented the movie “He’s just not that into you” from blockbuster about a week ago. I watched it as soon as I received it in the mailbox. Overall I enjoyed the movie because it was different than other chick flicks. I must admit that the movie got a …

Borderland
Borderland is one of the most convoluted horror movies that I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of horror movies over the years. I bought the movie because it was part of the After Dark Horror Fest and I loved most of the movies that they released in …
Dead Like Me: Nighthawks
Dead Like Me: Nighthawks is a flashback show, and that confuses me. It’s really too early for a flashback show, but maybe Showtime was trying to get people up to speed on what was happening in the story. Usually, a clip show like this one is an …
Katt Williams’ Pimp Chronicles (R, 2006) movie
When the “film”begins, we see this tiny little pimp draped in a huge white fur coat and hat. Underneath, it appears that the little fella is wearing some kind of green velvet jacket and matching green striped shirt. He is also adorned with an assortment of …
Black Swan Movie
The funny thing about Black Swan is that I should really have no reason to want to watch it. True, it’s a film by Darren Aranofsky, who’s acclaimed film “Requiem for a Dream” is one of my favorite movies, and who also gave us “The Wrestler”, but none of …
The X-Files
“The X-Files” was one of the most popular American television shows which was aired on television in the1990s. I do not know one person from my peer group who lived in the West and did not know about the television show. I can even remember that it used …
Firehouse movie
This review is for a movie called Firehouse, which is not to be confused with Richard Dean Anderson’s Firehouse movie of 25 years later. However, whereas in 1997 it was women having to deal with being accepted, in this 1973 version, it’s African Americans struggling to break in …

A Night at the Roxbury (1998) is a comedy by directors Peter Markle and John Fortenberry and is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for sex related humor, language and some drug content.

Ironman
“Ironman” was one of my favorite movies for 2008. I had actually put off watching it for just the right time when I would be at home alone to watch it, as I had been very busy and broke when the movie was released in theatres. I was also …
