Brothers movie
Note: This review contains spoilers!
“Brothers”, starring Tobey Maguire, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Natalie Portman is a movie that suffers from bad marketing. When I saw the trailer for it, I was expecting a psychological thriller, and instead found the movie to be more of a run of the mill drama. …

Sequels are often just the worst things under the sun, often taking the original characters to ruin. There are few that really are true to the story, that follow it through and make it all believable. Sometimes you still enjoy the original better, but even so, you …

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
I normally like murder mysteries, especially ones that don’t review who the killer is until the very end. However, in the case of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, I was very disappointed.
The movie centers around Robert Downey Jr who plays an actor who impersonates a private eye and Val Kilmer, …
Stuart Little 2: The Movie
I was never a big fan of the first Stuart Little. The whole idea that two adults would adopt a little talking mouse was always a little creepy to me, because even though I think that mice are kind of cute, I probably would have run away as soon …
Alex and Emma (2003 Film)
The 2003 film “Alex and Emma” starring Kate Hudson in the early stages of her career, and Luke Wilson, was a film that was really trying to be romantic and funny. I could see it in the jokes and scenes that were exaggerated. However, it really did not deliver. …

The Lair Of The White Worm movie
The Lair Of The White Worm is a silly little fantasy, science fiction, horror type film. The Lair Of The White Worm is probably a cult classic, although I don’t think that many people know of this movie. This movie is about people who find a skull that seems …
My Bloody Valentine
Have you guys watched the 3D movie, My Bloody Valentine? I was so scared out of my mind watching this and since it is on 3D, it makes it all the more scarier especially when the psychotic killer throws the axe at the victims.
You feel like you …

Lego Batman: The Movie
With the recent “Lego” movie thriving at the box office, I decided to take a look back at its quasi-official predecessor, a direct to video movie that tied into the “Lego Batman” video game franchise, more specifically, the sequel that brought in several of the other heroes that inhabit …
Movie 1408
1408 a great horror movie.
Based on Stephen King’s novel ‘1408′ is a disturbing and really terrifying horror, which besides sheer thrills might give you the reason to stop for a while and think about what’s really important in your life. The number in the tittle refers to …

This is another movie that was taken from a video game of the same name about a detective who is self involved in his work at hunting down to person or people involved in the death of his wife and child. But unlike the video game, this movie falls …
Tell him by Celine Dion
“Tell him, tell him that the sun and moon rise in his eyes.”. One line from the song tell him sang by Celine Dion and Barbara Streisand. I really like this song. Me and my friend always sings this song. Because this is the best song that fits our …
The Immigrant movie
Charlie Chaplin plays an honest man who immigrates to America. As soon as he reaches the new country he runs in to trouble immedietly.
I think this is one of Chaplin’s most underrated short films. The story has a nearly perfect balance between hysterical physical humour and social criticism, and …
Iron Man
Iron Man, I thought it was going to be a movie for the boys, like transformers or something like that, but it was really something more. It was a movie for everyone. It was mysterious, suspenseful, and even had a dash of romance. I have put it on my …
40 Days and 40 Nights
I was expecting Josh Hartnett to shine in the DVD movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights. Don’t get me wrong; Josh is a darling and he acted really well but the storyline is a real bummer for me.
It starts off with Josh character, Matt being dumped by his super …

Slumdog Millionaire
There has been a lot of reviews about this famous movie ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ so why another review? Well I want to express the views of many Indians like me who dare to think different.
It is made by a British director Danny Boyle, so it may …
The Hole movie
It was my friend who actually recommended the horror film called “The Hole” to me some time ago. The person didn’t tell me much about it either since I don’t like to be told much about movies before I watch them; but nevertheless, based upon how they described it, …
Made Of Honour
Made Of Honour sees the charming Patrick Dempsey acting as the main guy and there are also other casts like Michelle Monaghan and Sydney Pollack. What is this movie about..? I think it’s a good movie and I likened it to something like other romantic comedies, starring Sandra …
Casino Royale
I was very skeptical about watching Casino Royale for I was never interested in any of the previous James Bond movies. I figured they are very predictable, where the hero beats everyone up, always winning and ends up with the beautiful girl. I’m so glad I gave Casino Royale …
Happy Feet
I took my 10yr old grandson to see ‘Happy Feet’ during the Christmas holidays. We couldn’t get in to see the movie we wanted to see so settled for that one. Came out clicking our heels. Well, I did. He’s not a kid who likes the turtles or action …

My Life in Ruins
Although it is, in my opinion, a chick-flick, “My Life in Ruins” is a great, light-hearted movie, and if you enjoyed “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” then you will be sure to enjoy this movie. The writing and acting will not be recognized at the Oscars next year, but …
Movie Surf’s Up
I have always loved a good kid’s animation, but this movie really re-defines the lines in animation. Surf’s Up had amazing graphics, great animation and detail, a great storyline, and a whole lot of good, clean humor. This is probably one of the best kids (and adult’s!) movies of …
Just Friends comedy
The first time I watched the “Just Friends” Dvd, I was nearly in tears. I love this movie. The actors play their roles so well, that the viewer is fully capable of feeling sympathy, embarrassment, anger, joy, ect for all of the characters. I can’t begin to recall the …
Angels & Demons Movie
Having read this book, I can say the movie is quite acceptable compared to the other movies also derived from novels such as the Harry Potter series, here in this movie and novel I can say that the movie didn’t deviate as much as the other films did and …
Now You See Me 2 (2016 Film)
This year we have been blessed with unnecessary sequels, and if you think that the “expansion” of the magic-filled world of the first Now You See Me Film would offer something different, then you are very wrong.
There’s also a reason why it holds a fairly small rating in critics-consensus websites …

Let’s Go Collegiate movie
Let’s Go Collegiate was a movie released in 1941 that is basically a lot of college age nonsense. I tried, but I couldn’t get all that into the fun of this picture. It was okay, but I just didn’t really take to the story and none of …
Motel Hell (1980) movie
Starring: Rory Calhoun, Paul Linke, Nancy Parsons, Nina Axelrod, and Wolfman Jack.
Directed by: Kevin Connor.
The villains who run ‘Motel Hell’ must be related to the family depicted in “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” which this film parodies quite often. In fact, “Motel Hell” parodies a whole list of modern …
Robinhood Movie (2010)
I never knew Russell Crowe could emulate or do a better job than Gladiator, and the 2 movies are equally famous for it’s story and the actors and actresses involved. Russell Crowe as Robinhood was quite old, and I had first thought all the characters were too old for …
The Devil Wears Prada
I can watch The Devil Wears Prada 10 times in a row and still not get bored over the DVD. I have one at home and I love watching it each time whenever I have a special time at home, away from work and not going out with …
Queen Sized movie
I came home early today and my wife was watching the movie “Queen Sized” on TV. I had never heard of the movie and, since it was raining and there wasn’t much else to do, I sat down to watch it with her.
I missed the first half hour or …
Netflix
My fiance and I recently decided to sign up for Netflix. As you may know, it is a DVD rental service. You pick out which DVDs you want from the website (there is a massive list), and they send them to you. The number they send …
Invictus: Movie
I thought that Invictus was a good, well-made film but had it not been based on true events, I’m not sure I would have been interested.
Rugby is not a sport that I have any real interest in, but the history that this film shows I feel was important. Nelson …
Underdog Movie on DVD
Everyone’s favorite super pooch and defender of the downtrodden, Under Dog and his best girl Polly Purebread have made it from the cartoon strips to live action this past year and now their adventures are available on DVD. It is rated PG for some mild language, no curses or …
Pocahontas
I love the story of Pocahontas even in the book so when I had the chance to see the animated movie I really never missed it. I enjoyed watching it since it is a different kind of story and also it has a combination of reality and magic. I …

All the Kind Strangers movie
All the Kind Strangers from 1974 is one of those really weird movies that just doesn’t have much value in my opinion. If, and that is a big if, there is a message, it’s something about helping children who have no one in the world to guide them. …
The Dark Knight
After the 90s came and went and the Batman movie series continued its steady decline at the dismay of true fans, I figured I might as well forget seeing a better Batman than Michael Keaton, a better villain than Jack Nicolson as the Joker, or a better director than …
Haunting Sarah
This is one of my favorite lifetime movies. I watched a while ago and it was on again just the other day. It’s about these sisters who both have children, one of the children passes away and starts to haunt Sarah, who was best friends with the young boy. …
