Secrets of an Actress movie
I actually enjoyed the opening credits of 1938’s Secrets of an Actress movie, which began by having a woman’s hand unlocking and opening a diary. She turns each page of the diary until the credits reach the end. It was different and unique.
The story itself is one …

The One and Only Genuine Original Family Band
My absolute second favorite Disney film ever, and one of my all-time films of any kind, is the somewhat unknown, “The One and Only Genuine Original Family Band.” With Buddy Ebsen, Janet Blair, and Walter Brennan as the lead performers, the film also reunited John Davidson and Lesley …
The Ramen Girl movie
I wasn’t expecting much from the movie The Ramen Girl simply because I’m not a huge Brittany Murphy fan. But, I will admit, it turned out to be better than expected.
Murphy is convincing as a woman who travels to Japan to be with her boyfriend and, after getting dumped …
Babel (R, 2006) movie

The Expendables Movie (2010)
When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I immediately perked up in my seat and I knew I just had to watch this as all my favorite actors were here! It’s directed by Sylvester Stallone and it’s starring him, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Eric Roberts, …
Juno
I had a friend recently recommend the movie Juno to me. From the trailers, the movie didn’t really stand out to me, and I probably wouldn’t have realized it existed if not for this friend. That is all beside the point, however, because I’m very glad I …
Android Love
I really hate this episode. I am not sure what it is about it that bothers me so much. Perhaps it is just the fact that the humanity of androids is a topic that has been covered to death ten times or more already in the world …
Rest Stop: Don’t Look Back (NR, 2008)
I only rented this movie because I thought that the first one was fairly decent. Looking back, I realize that not only was the first one not as good as I’d imagined, there NEVER should have been a sequel. The whole concept behind this film …
Toy Story 3
Do you have so many toys that you do not know what to do with them when the time comes that you don’t want them anymore? Well, if you could watch this one great movie called Toy Story 3, you’ll have an idea what you could do with your …
Movie Hell Boy
Hell Boy with Ron Perlman and John Hurt.

Machete (2010 film)
I want to preface this review by saying that this is one of my favorite movies because it embraces what it is. It is an action movie that focuses primarily on the action. This is the type of movie that you watch solely for entertainment value. It is not …
Ten Commandments
This would sound funny but my husband and I have watched this movie so many times now that we both lost count and we are not closing the possibility of watching this movie in the future. It is also our practice watching this movie everytime we use our …
Indiana Jones and the crystal skull
When I first saw the preview for this long awaited film I just about wet myself. I was so excited to see one of my favorite actors come back in one of my favorite movie series. On top of Harrison Ford being in the movie they also brought back …

SAW UNCUT EDITION movie

The location was somewhere in North America 500 years before the arrival of Christopher Columbus. The brutal Viking warriors came from Scandinavia looking for slaves. It is a simple story, but I found it to …
The A-Team: Movie
The A-Team is a fun, action-packed remake of the TV series that I think will be of interest to a lot more people than it is given credit for.
I thought that the action scenes were very good and quite unique; given the circumstances they often find themselves in they …
Saw
Saw is a new kind of horror film that I had never seen before, the movie came off tacky at times, but it was interesting and cool enough to let the small things go, the plot I think is really good and kept me interested, 2 people wake up …
Germany Year Zero
Legendary filmmaker Roberto Rossellini, one of the leading men of the neorealist movement in post-war Italy, completed around 40-50 films during his career. Sadly, only few of these are available to a modern audience, most have been lost or badly damaged during the years. Germany Year Zero is probably …
The Mark of Zorro (1940)
Filmgoers today associate “Zorro” with Antonio Banderas but, as wonderful as Banderas is in the title role of the more updated version of this film, he can’t hold a candle to the original “Mark of Zorro” star Tyrone Power, who is just magnificent in this movie.
Power was at the …

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
True to the series, this movie delivers just as much gore and gruesome murders as the previous five movies. However, this movie is not a sequel to the popular series but rather a prequel. As the title suggests, this movie delves into the beginning of the Hewitt family’s murderous …
Diamonds are Forever, movie
Picking up where “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” leaves off, “Diamonds are Forever” is one of the weaker Bond movies in the series and a personal low for Sean Connery. It’s a shame that the original James Bond returned for this one as he should have left the franchise …
Trains Planes & Automobiles movie
I watched the movie Trains Planes & Automobiles a long time ago and didn’t remember a whole lot about the movie. So, when I got a chance to watch it again last night, I decided to (there wasn’t anything good on TV now that Monk is off the air).
I …

Killa Season: The Movie
Killa Season is an amature movie which had a very low budget and very few cameras and when you watch the movie you will see why nobody should ever make a movie this way. Appearing in this “gangster” movie are rap stars Juelz Santana, Hell Rell and Cam’ron and …
The Martian (Science Fiction Drama Movie)
I was eager to see the movie “The Martian” for two reasons. The first was because I saw the trailer and it sounded as if it would be a good watch, and the second reason was because the director Ridley Scott is known for his iconic movies. After I finally …

I love horror movies like Resident Evil where zombies are created because of viral infection, so I decided to buy Carriers which looks promising in it cover picture full of blood and flu mask, I expect something some gore and serious viral infestation where people will mutate and grow …
300 (movie)
This was definitely a man’s movie. Rocky with a sword times three hundred. It was over the top, overflowing with testosterone both in the battlefield and at home. It reminded me a lot of Gladiator, with just a darker feel to it. The way it was filmed was very …

Sleepy Hollow
Last night was probably the 7th or 8th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say it, I love it as much as I did the first time I saw it.
Johnny Depp has a lot of great films. This is probably one of his best …
Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
Neither a brilliant film in its own right or high scorer in the genre, The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue or Let Sleeping Corpses Lie as it is sometimes known, is a passable enough zombie movie that should prove watchable enough at least to any zombie fan. The story …

I doubt if there is someone who didn’t watch this hilarious comedy with the actress, Whoopi Goldberg at her best. If there is someone who didn’t watch it, run to the nearest DVD bookshop and by a copy right now!

The Vanished Murderer (Suspense Crime Action Thriller)
I guess I am on a marathon of Jiang Yiyan’s movies. I’ve previously mentioned why I became a fan of her and I won’t repeat myself here again.
A thing I realized about her movies is that, she usually has very interesting roles but the movie itself is always lacking somehow. …
Moonrise Kingdom, movie (2012)
Wes Anderson, as a director, has a tendency to be too quirky for his own good. After two great films with Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, his films became inconsistent. I’m not a big fan of The Royal Tenenbaums. I highly enjoyed Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. …
Night at the Museum
‘Night at the Museum’ directed by Shawn Levy has very peculiar story which interests my a strange manner. In general, it is movie which kids will enjoy more. But, that does not mean that it does not deserve adult viewers. Ben Stiller, playing the lead role has acted to …
Land of the Lost movie
I have a mixed feeling after watching Land of the Lost. In a way, I feel “lost”. There are some good parts in this movie and some not so good parts. It’s a funny movie with dinosaurs and many more exotic creatures that we will never be …

The Shining movie
The Shining starring Jack Nicholson as Jack, the father, is my favorite The Shining movie. This classic blew everyone away in its time, and Stephen King’s book was brought to justice with The Shining movie. A man who has some issues and quirks takes his family to an old …
