‘The Toll Collector’ is an animation short, really short actually at only 5 minutes. But it is 5 minutes of haunting, poignant beauty and it has stayed on my mind since I watched it. This is a visually dark claymation, with the pallid, ill-looking white faces of …

I am reviewing The Last Vampyre, a Sherlock Holmes movie produced by Granada television in the 1990s. It stars Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes and Edward Hardwicke as Dr. Watson. If you like Science Fiction, then this movie will appeal to you. In this movie, Holmes is …

The movie “Wall-E” is a unique Disney-Pixar new classic that blends technology, charm and lessons about caring for our environment. The title character is a quirky little janitorial robot. He is supposed to clean up a planet Earth that has been abandoned by humanity due to an …

Killer Gorillas. No such thing, right? Maybe. Maybe not. For years, there have been stories of ancient civilizations that are long gone from this world, that used to use animals as guards for their massive treasures. Whether or not they were …

I have heard about the most stocking make believe movie about America Foring Canada to merge with America. A very bad move and if that happend in real life then things will be different. Two years later in the movie, There are Shooting in Other Country and the CIA …

This movie started off kind of slow and boring in the very beginning. When you get into the movie though it is really good. It kept me interested in what was going on. You do kind of have to pay attention to make sure you understand it all, …

My husband and I watched A Perfect Getaway the other night. I thought it was going to be a nice little B-movie. I wasn’t expecting too much from this movie. Good thing or I would have been really disappointed! …

I wasn’t sure I wanted to watch the movie “Obsessed” this past weekend. But, my wife wanted to see it and it was her birthday.
It turned out to be an OK film.
It is actually similar to many other films I’ve seen. You have a successful black guy who is …

In what could probably be described as her “Showgirls” come back, Demi Moore stars as Jordan O’Neill, a naval sergeant who becomes the test subject of female allowance into the elite Navy Seals program.
This excellent action-drama is one of Moore’s best performances, in my opinion. As O’Neill, she struggles …

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 …

American Gangster’ is a movie presenting based on facts story of a man who practically overnight became one of the leading figure of New York underworld. Even more surprising was the fact that he was black while until then the crime world was dominated by Italians and Jews. It …

The “It’s Complicated” movie with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin is a fantastic movie. It is a very “grown-up” movie (rated R) meaning that it deals with adult issues and emotions. Streep’s performance goes without saying: awesome, honest, mature, whitty, and real. Baldwin plays such …

The best way to describe this movie is a modern time Indiana Jones teen movie. This film is based on the famous book of Anthony Horowitz but there seems to be a bit of a difference between the book and the movie version.
What I found interesting in this movie …

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 …

Short Circuit is one of my favorite childhood movies. This movie is really good and so funny. It is about a robot named number 5. And number 5 thinks he is alive! The whole idea of him being alive is super funny! I really like this movie and the whole …

A few days ago, my sister and I were watching random trailers in youtube and we came across a movie called, “The Lovely Bones”. I don’t ever recall seeing its trailer on TV. When I first saw trailer, I was like, “WOW!”. It sort of gave me goose bumps, …

You feel like you …

Chinese cinema owes a lot to Ang Lee’s breakthrough masterpiece at the Academy Awards. Not only is the first Asian film to gain mass popularity, acclaim and high prestige awards, it was followed by a whole stream of wuxia films that is still running and to be honest none …

Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 13 is about what they call a fair trade. This episode starts out with Neelix inquiring about helping out in engineering or a security detail on Voyager. I believe Neelix feels his usefulness to Captain Janeway has come to an end because they …

A silent classic by Sergei Eisenstein in which a factory of workers is putting up a strike when one of their fellows is savagely killed by soldiers. This montage-tecnique these russians directors used was a remarkable cinematic achievement that all of the world were a amazed by, and many …

I did not enjoy all the scenes I saw in this movie but for me this movie is a good one because it teaches the viewers that there are things that are totally disagreeable in the hiding. It also gives us the idea that things are not …

The world in the 50’s and 60’s loved stories about carnivals and circuses, and that’s why we have this film, Carnival Story, from 1954. In fact, I understand a German version was made at the same time and that the stars of both movies are seen but uncredited …

In the months leading up to The Dark Knight, I had heard so much about the film from people who love Batman saying things like “this is the way batman is supposed to be” and that “Chris Nolan is one of the best movie makers around”. Needless to say …

I usually like a movie I could somehow relate into. However, “Confessions of a Shopaholic” is one of those movies that I liked but could not really much relate to myself. It is about a woman who has a passion for shopping, which I don’t.
Being into shopping entails …

An Unfinished Affair is a movie about a man who cheats on his wife with a beautiful young woman. The young woman, Sheila, is played very well by the sly Jennie Garth. Sheila cannot get past that her lover, Alex, calls off the affair. She vows revenge. Of …

It’s been years since I’ve seen Sombrero, and unfortunately, I just found it by accident just before it started so didn’t have time to put on a videotape or I would have. The reason being is that it introduces Rick Jason, who is an actor I always loved …

The Matrix Reloaded is the second installment in the Matrix trilogy. To be honest, I do not think I enjoyed it as much as the first one. It seems like some of the excitement died out, or maybe there was just so much fuzz about the start …

Won’t it be great to live with two dads such as Billy Crystal and Robin Williams? In can imagine that you will laugh through life all the way! When I heard that these two great stars decided to join forces for the movie “Fathers’ Day”, I expected to have …

What I liked about this movie: When I read the description of this film, I thought for sure this would end up being …

Lately I have been watching movies on lifetime and lifetime movie network and most of them have been pretty good. One that I want to recommend is called Pacific Heights. It has Melanie Griffith and Micheal Keaton in it. It’s about a guy who rents a room from this …

The 2010 film “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was one in which I was leery about. Recently Nicholas Cage’s films have been sort of a letdown, but not this one. His co-star Jay Baruchel has a quirky sort of scholarly charm that makes him the perfect hero of our film. We …

I first had a snippet view of Breathless when it was aired in TV monde. I was rather clueless of what the film was about but admittedly I was drawn to the whimsical quality of the video. Even in stark black and white, Jean Seberg was a …

This used to be one of my favorite lifetime movies that they played. I watched it a couple years ago. I really enjoyed watching it though, it kept me entertained and interested. Now that I have watched more lifetime movies it’s not one of my favorites anymore but I …

I’m not sure what exactly the draw is for me but whenever the movie Pretty Woman is on television, I just have to watch it.
Maybe I’m just a closet Julia Roberts fan but I just can’t get enough of a Cinderella story that has a prostitute and millionaire falling …

The Mayor of Casterbridge with Alan Bates has impressed me. It is a story of a man who gets drunk and sells his wife and baby daughter to a stranger. Twenty years later, the wife, Susan, returns. It turns out that she has been a faithful wife to the …

Stephen King has been one of my favorite authors for creepy and late night frightening stories of all time. One of his stories that turned to a movie, the 2002 production of “Rose Red” was not only chilling and suspenseful but a movie I have strangely grown to really …

I liked “The Girl Next Door” the first time I watched it, but I really enjoyed it more the second time around. I liked it so much, I actually bought it on DVD! I got a good deal, so even though I don’t feel the need to …

I wanted to write about a movie called The Truman Show. It was a really good movie. It’s about a guy who thinks he’s a regular person in the world, but he starts noticing things are the same every day. The people are the same, the cars are the …

I was in the mood tonight to watch a serious movie, perferably about something that could really happen. I choose to watch Enough with Jennifer Lopez. This movie was exceptional. It made me realize that people really do have to live like this being cheated on and abused and …

Godzilla vs. Mothra is a definite improvement over King Kong vs. Godzilla, although it is still not necessarily on my top ten list of favorite Godzilla movies. I find the Godzilla suit to be a definite improvement over the Godzilla suit from the previous suit because this Godzilla looks …

Nine is an animated movie set in a post-apocalyptic world in which machines have taken over and killed all human beings. If this concept is not sound terribly original. It isn’t. However, the movie is entertaining. Tim Burton directed it. Some of the star-studded include Elijah Wood and Martin …

What type of movie/documentary is this! It was more like watching a selfish rich man and his friends having fun playing around a classic old ship. I loved the Titanic and studied it from 5th grade on. For this film to come in and mock all the scientist like …

Yet another film by the master Wong Kar-Wai, which tells the story of a homosexual couple and their stormy relationship. It ends the era of his more explosive visual style and brings him closer to what he does today. The narrative is slower, more thoughtful, but still Wong Kar-Wai’s …

This is a program that I often see on Pay-Per-View that shows mainly the bachelor of a soon to be married couple going out on the town with his friends to celebrate his last night as a single man. They hop from club to club, drinking and having a …
