Even though the movie itself never really became massively popular, I actually remember when the trailer for “How I Love Now” was released. I remember thinking that there were two main reasons why I wanted to see it. The first was because the actress Saoirse Ronan played the protagonist and …

I watched State of Play that day with my friends and I was so hating it in the beginning. I wanted to watch some other show, but all of them insisted on this one. Starring Russell Crowe and Ben Affleck, this is one thriller of a movie that …

What I liked about this movie: A lot of movies only hint at a person’s past and might give you a clue or two to figure it out for yourself. I personally …

Becoming Jane is a movie about Jane Austen, the author of six deep and thoughtful romance novels that have all been made into movies, most of them more than once. The movie cannot be really called Jane’s biography, although there are some historical names mentioned. It so happens that …

Okay, I know that many of you out there just love Pretty Woman. Pretty Woman is a love story and it is sweet. I will agree with that. But it’s a lame plot because really, how many rich men have to buy a prostitute in order to have a …

I watched Spiderman a while back and loved it. Since then, I have also seen Spiderman 2 and 3. When I took out the old film to watch, I was a little surprised at how phony the graphics looked. I had thought that they were so realistic when I …

Some call this movie Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, but as I’ve said before, to me, it’s just plain Return of the Jedi. Once commonly thought of as just another sequel, once George Lucas actually wrote his other scripts, it became a rung in …

Frontier(s) is a movie that was part of the After Dark Horror Fest for the 2007 season. The movie itself was supposed to be released in the US, but the ratings board in our country decided that the film was so gory that it needed an NC-17 rating. That …

I entered the theaters filled with much anticipation for this movie. I heard it has earned millions of dollars because it is such a hit across the globe. I wanted to prove for myself that seeing Avatar will be so worth my money, especially that I opted to watch …

Back to basics. This film was shot entirely in black and white, reminiscient of the old days of film-making, before special effects or computer graphics. Risky, but it proved brilliant. The lack of digital enterntainment required the actors to step up to the plate, and they did so much …

When I heard about this movie, I was eager to watch it, being that I heard that it was about the haunted skull of the historical figure the “Marquis de Sade”, the same person who the word “sadism” was coined from.
It is also not to be confused with …

This movie has got to be one of the most distracting, annoying, over developed, load of crap that I have ever had the torture of watching in my entire life. From the opening scene, even though things started off pretty and grand, it made a very hasty effort to …

The Hollywood movie is starring Nicolas Cage, Julianne Moore and Jessica Biel.

This installation to the Star Wars Saga was not the worst nor the best. It failed to live up to the hype, it’s somewhat boring, plus the characters are semi-believable. Anakin’s character was poorly portrayed as he just randomly switched to the Darkside without a real reason. General Grievous …

Played by one of the most respected comedians in the entertainment industry, Meet Dave is a movie that I would have otherwise been reluctant to watch, as I am not really into blatant fiction, but because of the Eddy Murphy factor, I knew that it would have that comedy …

The movie “Orphan” from 2009 was a must see for me after hearing about all the controversy surrounding it. I have heard that some were concerned that it would discourage prospective parents from adopting. I would assume, after seeing the film, that these people were basing their fears on …

What can be said about Rat Race other than very hilarious. It had to be with actors/actresses like John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, Whoopi Goldberg, Jon Lovitz, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Seth Green. What is with the men in the board-room, they seem to bet on any and everything…I guess …

After seeing Scary Movie 4 this past weekend, I was glad to finally see a movie series that gets better with time. Since dumping the Wayan Brothers prior to the third movie, the plots in the Scary Movie series have gotten more mature and focus more on movie spoofs …

The new movie Avatar has been reviewed so many times, with opinions ranging from “masterpiece” to “unoriginal” and “nothing special.” Well, here is my take on it, after watching it in IMAX. The plot may not be very original. My husband said that Avatar reminded him of “Dances with …

The best words to describe the movie “The Game Plan” is a “Big Daddy” story only better and better. I feel that the true assits of this movie are the great acting skills and excellent on screen chemistry between the actor, Dwayne Johnson and the young actress, Madison Pettis. …

I take great delights from viewing films based on fine literature. Mostly I like to see the author’s descriptions translated into the picture as well as the embodiment of the characters, which altogether makes for an extended annotation to the book. I came upon a criterion copy …

I have been dying to get my hands on the DVD set of “A Haunting” a television program that comes on one of those cable channels. Anyway, this program features real stories of hauntings occurring all over the U.S. But before you go thinking that it …

Very rare of me to watch foreign films (films that are not in the English language) so when I do, I always make it sure that I’m going to have a good time with it. Today I choose to watch a 2013 Polish film called “Ida” because first, it won …

Spiderman 3 was much better than I expected. Besides the great sound effects and graphics, the story-line was much better than the expected “hero saves the day”. It shows Peter Parker in a different light, how the “black suit” changes him, and the audience is introduced to a naughty …

We went to the movies last night and watched the film entitled the Mist, based on a novel by Stephen King. I love a good mystery and I really enjoy Stephen Kings books, and usually enjoy the film adaptations.
This movie was really a good story, enough computer …

I was torn into two pieces by this movie. I didn’t want to see it at first because I thought it would be extremely stupid. And I believed this due to Sacha Baron Cohen’s appearances on television shows as “Bruno.” The character himself was not funny at all, to …

Inglourious Basterds is without a doubt my favourite movie of 2009.
It’s fascinating, thrilling, unique and even has moments of comedy in it all at the same time.
The plot is an interesting one; I like how they took a different approach to things rather than the typical World War 2 …

Ok I will X men a lot. And I think the first two movies were pretty good. But the 3rd one was just horrible. I mean they had way to many characters and there was way to much going on at the same time in the movie.I couldn’t really keep …

If you ask me about my opinion of this movie. It is —“ “I just wasted 1 hour plus of my life! *Censored*! *Censored*! *Censored*!”
In fact, I did thought of naming this review “VooDoo - a movie to waste 1 hour plus of you life away”. But I guess, …

When Down Periscope first came out, I thought Kelsey Grammar was a bad choice for the lead role. I was definitely wrong. This movie was great, I was laughing so hard throughout it hurt and I’ve never looked at the Navy the same way again.
The crew of the Stingray …

This is another Paul Newman film, and it’s probably my favorite of his. It’s called The Secret War of Harry Frigg, and it’s a World War II war comedy. Newman is Harry Frigg, a man who is always in trouble with the Army and though he gets …

Certain elements seem to indicate when a movie franchise has lost its steam and either needs to be retired, or re-evaluated. Unfortunately, with the Superman movie franchise, these elements were ignored until it was too late. Superman III clearly marked these elements. The stars were tired, their performances forced …

I am not a huge fan of Eriq LaSalle’s. But when I saw that he took a directorial turn in “Crazy as Hell”, I realized that he had some sort of depth. I mention this film because in it Eriq also stars as a crazy, and mysterious …

At Valentine day, many television station play some romanyic movie, like this movie, the notebook. I saw it last night, though I have ever seen it, I wanna see it again because this movie is so romantic, touch, and can make me cry.
The notebook movie is based on novel …

Where It’s At is another movie from the sixties about the generation gap, in an odd sort of way. In truth, I don’t like this movie. It’s just a little too off-beat for me. I didn’t like the characters, I don’t like their evolution, and there’s not …

I was fortunate enough to see the new movie the Hangover in the movie theatre while it was still in theaters. I saw it with my boyfriend and I must admit, it was the perfect date movie. It is perfect only if you are looking for a very light, …
