Night Watch
Night Watch is a movie I saw going on recently when I was at someone’s house watching television. At first I had mistaken it for a movie from the 80s I had seen going on several times, but after a while I realised that it was actually a movie …
Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar (movie) August, 2006
The name of the movie Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar sounds funny and many of us might presume it is a comic movie but well it isn’t. It is a very stupid melodramatic movie with horrible emotional ups and downs as stated in the film. I just cannot understand …

A Clockwork Orange (movie)
Does anyone really get the movie, A Clockwork Orange? I know that I don’t! I have tried to understand if A Clockwork Orange is about more than just what you see, sort of like is there a subplot that I should be understanding, but I come up with the …
The Mist by Stephen King (R, 2007)
I watched this movie in segments. I have to admit that at first I was completely intrigued. But as time progressed, my interest waned somewhat, and I was wondering whether I should start the movie again. I did, and then I realized that it wasn’t me …

Mr. Bean’s Holiday (2007)
This is the second movie of Rowan Atksinson as Mr. Bean, after the very funny and attracting ” Bean ” while, for me, this second movie is better than the first one because besides there are classical jokes from Mr. Bean, we can also see the beautiful view of …

Jaws
Jaws is probably one of the scariest movies ever made. And Jaws is also the reason I’m scared to go in the water when I’m at the beach. This movie can really scare people and really make you feel uncomfortable. I really did enjoy the music in jaws. The …
Coffee & Cigarettes movie
Jim Jarmusch is probably the most successful american independent filmmaker ever, with great films like Down by Law and Mystery Train on his record, and recently he decided to recreate his old classic short film series Coffee & Cigarettes in a full feature format, and add a number of …
Black Butler: Season One, Anime
Okay, so I just finished season one of Black Butler and I am having such an emotional turmoil. I have developed such a strong emotional attachment to the characters because of their distinct personalities, mainly Ciel and Sebastian (the master and the butler, respectively). I absolutely love this series …

Employee of the Month
I saw previews for Employee of the Month a few months ago but never made an effort to rent it. It just didn’t look that good.
But, when it became available on Showtime, I decided to at least give it a chance. I wasn’t disappointed.
Like most movies that take place …
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, …
Movie Bruno
This movie was hilarious, definitely a must see! Sacha Baron Cohen from Borat is back as Bruno for yet another epic comedy! Many people are completely against it, but what can you expect with a movie about a homosexual fashion oriented male? Many oppose it just on the basis …
View from a top movie
“View from the top” is an average movie about making your dreams comes true. It should convey a strong message of empowerment however the film is not that good. This is one of Gwyneth Paltrow’s movies and, may I say, not one of her best since it was a …

Hey, I like monster movies as much as the next person. And, it’s rare to find a good mummy movie. So, when I had a chance to watch the film 7 Mummies, I figured I would give it a try.
Wow, was I disappointed.
The problem with this movie, which is …
A Walk in the Clouds
I am not a fan of romance films, but I would still recommend the movie “A Walk in the Clouds” to anyone who loves watching a good romance film. Nevertheless, I think that like most other romance films which I have seen, the plot of the movie is lacking …
To The Devil, A Daughter (R, 1976)
I rented “To The Devil A Daughter” for two reasons: Christopher Lee and Nastassja Kinski. I have always liked Lee’s presence in films, especially The Wicker Man (the original). He had this air about him that was both seductive and a little creepy. …
Movie: The Outsiders
Synopsis: Two rival gangs, one made up of rich kids and the other made up of poor kids wage an all out war on each other in Oklahoma.
What I liked about this movie: I love movies that feature a well-known actor or actress before they were famous; mostly because …
Priceless
Remember the actress Audrey Tautou..? Well, if you want to refresh your memory, do watch Priceless for a good night-in of DVD rounds. I watched this just yesterday and this is what I have to say: definitely a movie that is super worth it for the die-hard romantics …
As Good As It Gets movie
I am not much of a drama type person, but, this movie is one of the very few drama films that holds a special place in my heart. Jack Nicholson’s characters are always lovable whether good or bad, and in the film it was kinda both at the same …

My sisters bought me some movies for Christmas. One of the movies was Mr. Deeds. I hadn’t seen the whole movie all the way through so I decided to watch it. It was actually better than I thought. For some reason I thought that the movie was stupid but …
Movie Mad Money
I can watch DVD movies back to back each time and one of the latest in my list would be Mad Money. Diane Keaton, the awesomely Queen Latifah and also Katie Holmes, wife of Tom Cruise star in this very good comedy movie.
These 3 women are awesome ladies …

I am not a big fan of Batman series as such, but I heard a lot of good reviews about this new flick, and some of my friends also recommended me this movie, so I finally decided to give it a watch on this weekend., I went to …
What Happens in Vegas
Reading the description of What Happens in Vegas, you would assume it is like many other romantic comedies that have come out over the years, like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days or the more dramatic The Breakup. But, after watching it last night, I have to …
The Associate movie
I viewed The Associate starring Whoopie Goldberg. This moive is very funny.
Whoopi Goldberg plays Laurel Ayres. A woman executive who finds it hard to get promotions and even recognition. She creates a male associate.
This creates almost continuous humor. Ayres pretends to work with Robert …
Big film
“Big” is a classic 1988 movie starring Tom Hanks. It really elevated Hanks to stardom as an everyman who most people can relate to. Looking back on it now, there are some weak plot points, but the movie also has some iconic scenes that one will not …
Herbie Fully Loaded -DVD Release 2005
Oh joy -Herbie rides again (if you will pardon the pun). When I spotted Herbie Fully Loaded in a shop I simply had to have it. Always having loved watching the original movies when they came onto the television it seemed too good to be true that the little …
My Neighbors the Yamadas
A film about the life of an ordinary family in Tokyo, anime style.
The film was directed by Isao Takahata, well known around the world for his Grave of the Fireflies. The difference between Takahata and Miyazaki for example is very big. Takahata’s films are based in the real world, …
Forrest Gump (1994 film)
The greatest movies are perhaps the different ones and Forrest Gump with its unique nature of storytelling, the absolutely original character and the randomness of its narrative definitely stroke me as such.
Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) has a coefficient of intelligence below the low border and a …
Fury (2014 Film)
Fury is the story of a tank crew going up against a small German army (marginally outnumbering them) at the tip top end of WWII. The film features Brad Pitt as the lead and a sprinkle of lesser known actors as the sides who perform well enough to hold …
National Treasure movie
I admit that I don’t like watching Nicholas Cage movies. There is nothing wrong with his acting skills; however for me he represent an actor with a lot of contrast. I really enjoyed watching his movie “The Rock”; however I really hated to watch his movie “City of Angels”. …
Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) Movie
I just recently saw the movie Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale. It is a finnish movie and it rates as 6.9/10 in IMDB that is why I decided to see it. I like foreign films and this looks quite interesting for me. The title itself boggled me for a …
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Movie 2011)
Okay, so I just watched this movie a few days ago and to tell you guys frankly I never hesitated, not one bit, about watching this movie. I have seen the trilogy and I know that this one “might” just be as good as its predecessors!
Basically, the plot is …
