One of the movies that I watched this summer was the movie “Dark Skies”. It’s not to be confused with the television series of the same name that was popular in the late nineteen nineties, even though it has a bit of a similar motif. When I watched the …

When I saw the trailer of this film, it looked entertaining during the first scenes of the trailer until it showed Ted ( the talking teddy bear ) humping on top of the counter of a store. I was stunned, thus I watched the entire movie to really …

I’ve watched Meet the browns so many times that I literally know the script by heart. That’s just how much I enjoy watching this movie. In all honestly, Meet the Browns film is one my favorite movies from Tyler Perry. Yes, there’s the play, and the TV series, but …

Today (30/08/13) I had went to watch The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones with my best-friend at Hoyts Cinema, NZ. And boy was I glad I had paid $17 of my allowance to watch it! :D
The Movie in my opinion was a great watch. The characters they had to …

Damien: Omen II is the second of the three installments of the Omen horror franchise. Set seven years after the events in the first film, it shows the Anti-Christ, Damien (played by Jonathan Scott-Taylor), moving up on the social and professional ladder. It is also the film where Damien …

Killing them softly is a crime film that takes the genre completely to another level. The characters and cinematography is top notch however, I found the story to be a bit on the weaker side.
Talking about camera-work, this mob film sure is a breath of fresh air. The joint-smoking …

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 …

This film thoroughly surprised me - I never thought a film could be so thought provoking. The plot itself is rather complicated, I had to watch it a few times just to understand everything that happens. However I thought this is what made the film so great. I could …

A couple of months ago I watched a trailer of the movie Elysium. My first expressions were «WOW. That is a must-watch movie». It was full of superb special effects, action and some new idea.
And then, the movie came out in the cinemas. I went to the good theatre, …

I was not expecting much from this movie. Not much at all. I am not a great fan of Wolverine and a few other mutants, my favorites being Magneto and Charles Xavier. Thankfully, this movie focused on them. I found this a good thing and bad thing. While I …

“Iron Man 3″ is directed by Shane Black and stars Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Rebecca Hall, Jon Favreau and Ben Kingsley.
Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is a genius billionaire playboy philanthropist who isn’t as happy as he should be. Ever since the traumatizing …

Clint Eastwood’s crowning achievement, the masterpiece known as Unforgiven. The film that reinvigorated a genre known as the American Western.
The story begins in 1878, William Munny (Clint Eastwood) is an aging pig farmer just scraping to get by. Then one day out of the blue a young man comes …

The classic 1967 American film with the story that is controversial still to this day. Ben (played by Dustin Hoffman) is the typical American youth, and we begin with him returning home from college for the summer. Unsure with the direction that his life should take after school, he …

One of my guilty pleasures is watching some of the more modern Lifetime movies, especially if I think that they have fairly interesting plots and fairly tolerable acting. These can be a little hard to find especially in a sea of low budget movies that Lifetime seems to bring. …

When I first saw the trailer for the movie “The Call” it was a little before it was released, and I didn’t really pay much mind to it. Part of the reason was because a lot of the actress Halle Berry’s recent movies seem to have bombed and I …

One of the movies that I realised that I underrated the most earlier on in the year was the one that went by the same name of a POD song called “Here Comes the Boom”. One of the reasons why I didn’t even consider watching it at the time …

One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …

I generally like watching Justice League movies, so when I heard of the Flashpoint Paradox, I couldn’t wait to find the time to actually sit down and watch it. I didn’t even read up on the plot of it either, I just decided to leave everything to surprise this …

A few of my friends had seen the movie “Magic Mike” and raved about how good it was. I didn’t really think it would be my kind of movie, so I didn’t watch it when it first came out. A few nights ago, however, I had nothing …

For one night a year, all crime is legal. It’s a very compelling idea for a movie, right? If the film is well executed then yes, but in the case of The Purge, it’s really nothing more than an average movie.
The Purge was one of the first movies in …

The Family That Prey is another movie from Tyler Perry that is one of my personal favorites. I have loved it ever since the day I first watched it. Like most of Tyler Perry films and plays they have a moral and usually some kind of twist to the …

I Can Do Bad All By Myself is another one of my favorite films from the director Tyler Perry. In my honest opinion I feel like this one of his best pieces compared to some of his recent work. I also call this one a classic because it’s well …

Diary Of A Mad Black Woman is one my favorite movies from the Director Tyler Perry. I personally consider it to be one of his classics and better written stories. Compared to some of his latest films, this one is actually gripping because the storyline is true and happens to …

I once watched the movie Courage To Love, a few years ago when flipping through the channels on TV, one Sunday evening. At the time I wasn’t really paying attention to it. Usually I don’t care for TV movies so I wasn’t all that interested. I didn’t even know …

Even though I have not watched many movies this summer as a result of a lack of time, the movie “Jack the Giant Slayer” was one of the very few that I did, especially since I was looking forward to seeing it ever since I first saw the trailer …

If you’re a fan of giant robots or giant monsters, the Pacific Rim movie is definitely a thrill to watch. The movie got hyped all the way to its theatrical release, what with director Guillermo del Toro promising a great homage that should introduce the two genres to the …

As an avid movie watcher and Oz obsessive, I was thrilled to finally receive (via Lovefilm) the 2013 movie, Oz the Great and Powerful. The film features a decent cast so I have written a quick list of the main characters and their actors here with a couple of …

I was a huge fan of the first “Hangover” film, but not so impressed with the second film titled “The Hangover Part II” so going into this movie, I really wasn’t sure what to expect with “The Hangover Part III”. I had heard a few reviews before I …

One of the greatest Disney cartoons and one of the best cartoons of all time is Beauty and the Beast. I don’t care if anyone agrees with me or not about my opinion above. Beauty and the Beast was released in 1991 and it didn’t just broke records, but …

“The Avengers” is directed by Joss Whedon and stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, and Samuel L. Jackson. This superhero spectacle is centered on the assembling of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) is the head of the secret agency S.H.E.I.L.D and must …

At first glance, ‘This is the End’ could be viewed as a vanity project. A comedy produced by the actors who star as themselves, it all feels a little bit self-congratulatory. The plot involves Seth Rogan, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson and James Franco having to …

As I was browsing through thriller movies in IMDB, what caught my eye from a particular list was the title of this movie. I also saw the list of cast which included my favorites: Brittany Snow, John Heard, and Enver Gjokaj. I was aware of the game in real …

I already knew that Denzel Washington was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for this film before I watched it. Thus, I was expecting this film to be somehow good. I thought it was some aviation disaster film or a terrorist-inspired aviation film. However, the movie was …

Okay, recently there has been a difference of opinion about this film boiling away between various groups of my friends, so I have decided to write a little about it and explain what I like about it, and why I think you should too (And perhaps some stuff about …

I never knew that the story was based on a book written by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I got to know about this movie from a friend who was studying Mass Media. I always watch movies when I am alone so that I do not get distracted and because I …

As a fan of cinema entertainment I indulged in watching the movie called The hunt. I choose to watch this movie because of the actor Mads Mikkelsen was the lead Role. Besides that factor, I was drawn to the plot of the film. I must warn that my …

I will be one of the first people to say that when I saw the preview for Ice Age 4 Continental Drift released in 2012, I thought ‘Oh No, not another one!’ Not that I didn’t like the first three because I did. I loved them. I was just …

I personally am a sucker for horror movies and usually even before I reach halfway through the movie, I sort of already figured out how things will turn out because quite frankly, every movie that involves a bunch of teenagers who go on vacation in a remote house in …

Babes in Toyland was released in 1934, in black and white color. This is a classic musical movie with its cuteness and its real singing talent. I was introduced to this movie as a child and had the hardest time trying to find it as an adult because I …

Dark Knight Rises. When you think about it, it certainly sounds like a Batman movie. I mean, Batman is always needing to rise above or overcome something. His world is always filled with darkness and overcoming the evils of Gotham City. But in this movie, I think there were …

Nowadays, saying the name Batman actually brings up enjoyable memories. Memories of the older movies that I enjoyed and the newer movies that reinvented it. Forgetting about the failures in-between. The Dark Knight was released in 2008 and featured Batman’s worst enemy. The Joker himself. But with all the …

After the terrible versions that came before it, I was frightened that Batman Begins would continue on that downward spiral of failure. I had hopes that it would not because of the amount of time that there was between the two failure films and this one, as well as …

Out comes another colorful Batman, but at least Val Kilmer and Nicole Kidman did not return with the title. The title, Batman and Robin, was released in 1997 and was the ending to the sad existence that the Batman movie series had come to. It was not picked up …

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 …

America’s Sweethearts is one of those movies that has a star-studded cast, with promises of comedy and entertainment. It didn’t even deliver part of that promise. The movie was released in 2001. The film immediately gave me the feeling that I was watching a soap-opera made into a movie. …

Another fun-filled family adventure movie is here; from the makers of the Ice Age series and Rio, Epic feels to me like a magical combination of The Borrowers and Fern Gulley. I found myself being transported back to my childhood when I would have watched such films. However I …

This version of Batman was correctly named. Batman Forever. It should have been forgotten Forever. Because this was the worst of all the current Batman movies to come out in the last 20 to 30 years. It was released in 1995 and never should have left the drawing board. …

With the return of Batman in 1992, I was glad to see Michael Keaton making a return as well. I enjoyed his Batman performance and after hearing rumors of Tom Hanks was going to be Batman, I think he saved the series. And with the return of Batman, two …

This darker, more comic book feeling Batman was released in 1989 and was actually the first Batman movie I had ever seen. It was only after seeing this movie that I really wanted to know more about Batman and his character, which started my love for DC and Marvel …

With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …
