The Triangle - Part 2 movie
The special effects in The Triangle, part 2 (and all parts actually), are very good and are part of the lure of what is a six-hour production. This movie or mini-series, depending on how you want to think of it, aired in 3 parts in 2005. It’s …
Superman Vs Doomsday
Coming from Old School Superman, I could never really get into Superman and Lois Lane as an item. I can appreciate its inevitability � I mean, after all, they’ve been working together almost seventy years. But if television is any indicator, romances typically mean the death knell to a …
License to Wed
License to Wed is a not so good romantic comedy movie. The movie has Robbie Williams, Mandy Moore, and John Krasinski playing the pivotal roles. The movie has a very artificial plot and it is not convincing at any point. Though the main point of the plot is silly …
Pan’s Labyrinth
The other night I watched a very unique movie called Pan’s Labyrinth, or El Laberinto del fauno. I really enjoyed this movie. Pan’s Labyrinth was out in 2006. The movie is set in the time of the Spanish civil war. Pan’s Labyrinth primarily follows the …
Locked Up (2004)
Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time, this one even beats being caught with your pants down. This is a case of mistaken identity that caused an innocent man to be incarcerated in a highly securely penitentiary where he is charged for murder. He didn’t …
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous
Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous is the sequel to the critically and commercially successful movie, Miss Congeniality, starring Sandra Bullock. Sandra Bullock played the lead role in Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous as well but the movie fails to impress the viewers who have expectations from the …
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is certainly enjoyable, and I dare to say that it is better than the first version, most definitely. I went with a bunch of friends to catch it the first day it was released in my country but my whole friends do …
“Are you in the house alone” Movie
This movie is such an odd combination of movies. I really love it and I adore 70’s horror films but it is so hard to pin down.
The plot of the movie is a teenager starts dating her best friend’s boyfriend’s friend. They start falling in love and she …
Take the Lead-Antonio Banderas
I went to this movie last night with my friends. I think it was worth seeing, but perhaps just a rental. It was pleasant, with some funny scenes, and the way the scene moved back and forth with the dancing and the music, especially at the beginning, was great.
The …
Forrest Gump
I was watching the movie Forrest Gump again for probably the third or fourth time. While not quite as good as I remember it when I originally saw it, I still think this has to be one of Tom Hanks better pictures.
The great thing about this movie is you …
Good Luck Chuck
It starts off really good and funny and then the middle is still funny but not as funny as in the middle. It kept me interested the whole movie. The funny parts in the movie were really hilarious and made me laugh. I even re winded a few parts …
Sinister (movie)
I didn’t know anything about the movie “Sinister” until I went to see “End of Watch” in the movie theatres and saw it advertising. Based on what I had seen in the trailer, I knew immediately that I had wanted to see it in the theatres with a friend …
The Duff - Teen Movie (2015)
‘The Duff’ is a teen comedy that took me by surprise. I expected the movie to be terrible as most teen comedies are repetitive. This movie wasn’t unique but it took the usual storyline and made it wonderful.
The story is about a teen named Bianca who isn’t exactly what many …
A Smoky Mountain Christmas movie
For what it is, A Smoky Mountain Christmas is a decent holiday movie. Dolly Parton stars as a successful country singer (not a big stretch here) who takes off for the mountains for some peace and relaxation.
In the smoky mountains, Lorna Davis (Parton) discovers a group of children …
Pickford Theatre
The Pickford Theatre located at 1416 Cornwall Avenue in Bellingham, Washington is my favorite movie house ever. The theatre tends to show thoughtful, intelligent films from around the world. Recently I’ve seen “The Queen,” ” Vajra Sky Over Tibet,” and “Little Miss Sunshine. Currently “Iran in Fragments” is …
Kick Ass: Movie
Kick-Ass is one of my favourite films to come out of the last couple of years, mainly down to how unique it is and its fascinating analysis of a wannabe superhero.
This superhero is just an ordinary teenager, and the story shows that. You get a good back story to …

Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin
I enjoyed this movie since I was quite young. I was first introduced to these characters in the bok the movie was based upon, ‘By The Great Horn Spoon!’ The big disappointment to me was the great sequences on the ship were not but a blink of an eye …
Two Weeks Notice
It is so difficult to say who is the ideal on screen partner for Hugh Grant. We have seen him act with such great female stars such as Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, Renee Zellwegar, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Julianne Moore and Andie MacDowell. I believe he is ideal on screen partner …
The North Star movie
The North Star from 1943 shows the will and resolve of a good people when faced with a giant oppression. It takes place in a Polish village. The opening theme is so light and bouncy that you don’t even suspect the horror that is to come as the …
Confessions of a Shopaholic
I usually like a movie I could somehow relate into. However, “Confessions of a Shopaholic” is one of those movies that I liked but could not really much relate to myself. It is about a woman who has a passion for shopping, which I don’t.
Being into shopping entails …

Art Of Revenge
Art Of Revenge is a Lifetime movie that starts off with a young, married couple who seems to have it all. Or at least that is what the movie producers want you to think. Art of Revenge started off, as I perceived the movie, with a whining wife and …

City Slickers movie

Into The Woods - The Movie
Last night when I went to watch “Into the Woods”, I was excited with expectations of watching a splendid musical. Although it includes scenes of great quality, I felt it lacks the strength to be called an exceptional movie. It’s a good musical, but the evolution of the characters …

I Can Do Bad All By Myself film (2009)

Movie Hitch
“Hitch” represents Will Smith’s attempt at romantic fiction and, may I add, not a bad attempt at all! This movie meant a lot for the actors, Eva Mendez and Kevin James because afterwards they received more challenging roles.
In this movie, we see how Smith stars as Alex ‘Hitch’ Hitchens …
Click
For what is supposed to be a comedy I suggest you bring a box of tissues.
A desire Im sure everyone shares is to be able to stop time, or skip through unpleasant events, and even to turn the volume down on life. It is those exact deisres that Click …

Resident Evil: Apocalypse, apocalyptic fiction action horror film
How can I write a review on a movie like this? Resident Evil: Apocalypse almost single handedly ruined the Resident Evil movie franchise. The plot was beyond terrible and the acting was laughable. Milla Jovovich was still looking just as good in this movie, but she couldn’t even save …

Sex and Death 101 DVD Movie
Alright, before you get too skeptical about the DVD title movie, Sex and Death 101, let me tell you that this movie is actually pretty harmless, minus all the ‘racy’ scenes, which I’m not interested at all. I just love the comedic storyline and here is it.
Simon Baker …
Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain Movie
En epic Hong Kong action movie about an ordinary man who gets involved in battles between good and evil on the old mysterious mountain of Zu.
