Netflix versus Blockbuster

Messengers 2: The Scarecrow
Another scary movie I have watched with my boyfriend is Messengers 2: The Scarecrow. The movie starts out with a young woman, running in a corn field; her face distressed and scared. She was the killed; the movie not showing who had killed her.
The movie then transitions to a …
Movie: Scooby Doo and the Monster of Mexico

House of Fears
OK, I have to admit that House of Fears makes me go all creepy. However, the movie is kind of dark and it’s quite irritating to say. I wish that most haunted movies would be clearer and not having a dark effect.
I am not really sure …
I am legend
I think “I am legend” is one of the quiet movies, because along the first hour, i just saw a will smith as the center of this movie. It seems that he is the only actor in this movie. In the scene, he shows his self centered. The script …

Daniel Craig’s take on James Bond

License to Kill movie
To begin with, this film may have the best theme song of a Bond movie ever, and that doesn’t say a little. I think Timothy Dalton gives another convincing performance here, but yet he only received harsh criticism for this. I know what the problem is, and Dalton’s got …

There Will Be Blood (epic drama movie)
