The Fast and the Furious 4

In …
Notorious movie
Notorious, this was a great title for the movie biography of the rapper Notorious B.I.G. I saw the movie about a week ago, and am still amazed at what his life was like, true or not. Notorious means widely and unfavorably known, which is the epitome of Christopher Wallace’s …
Jeepers Creepers 2 Movie
If I have said it once, I’ve said it too many times…some movies really don’t need a sequel and Jeepers Creepers is one such movie. Ok, I get the fact that every twenty third spring for twenty three days it gets to eat…but come on, if the creature has …
American Wedding
I just watched this last night even though I have seen it before, it still made me laugh. It lives up to the name of American pie and American pie 2. It’s funny throughout the whole movie. It also has the same type of humor of American Pie. Most …
The Simpsons Movie
I like The Simpsons TV show, so I obviously expected to enjoy The Simpsons movie, and I was not disappointed. It was not the same format as a TV show - usually The Simpsons TV shows start out with one plot or problem, and end up being about something …

SM Marikina Mall Digital Theater
I was blown away when I watched Up last weekend at the SM Marikina Cinema 1 Digital Theater. This was my first time in SM Marikina’s digital theater. I have never been too impressed with the theaters of the other SM malls because it has never been of particularly …
Austin Powers (Movie)
Let’s be honest, have you never laughed at silly things? Do we not laugh at such simple comments said in a funny way? Or by the idiot face that some of our friends display from time to time so that we laugh when we are sad? This film is …
500 Days of Summer movie
I rented 500 days of summer knowing nothing about it except that it starred Joseph Gordon Levitt who is best known for playing the Alien, Tommy on the sitcom “Third Rock From the Sun,” and Zooey Deschanel. I have to say that I enjoyed this movie, but found …
Analyze This (1998), movie
American comedies have become part of a cliche after the 90s, the main plot being based simply on a failed relationship or some other unsatisfying cheesy drama. What I can claim to be a good comedy with cleverly conceived humour is ‘Analyze This’, the 1998 movie starring Billy Crystal, …
Thelma and Louise
This is definately a movie worth watching if you haven’t seen it yet. It has Susan Surandon in it. It’s about two girls that go off on a trip and one of the girls get rapped along the way. I think it is a wonderful story and the whole …

Movie Freedomland
One of my favorite movies. It kept me interested and entertained. I wasn’t bored throughout any of it. The ending was really good and surprised me, I didn’t expect the ending of it and I think that is one reason I liked it so much, because it was a …
The Tree of Life (2011 film)
If there’s a film-maker that has accepted the notion of the old avant-garde style, which professes the use of very specific direction and narration in the most unconventional way, it is Terrence Malik. His style is not for everyone, and perhaps that includes me.
…

Movie Happy Feet
This is one of the best cartoons I’ve seen so far. The trailer didn’t look so promising so I never watched this in the theaters. I seldom want to pay for cartoons anyway. Luckily, one of my relatives bought me a DVD version which they said was on sale. …
21 Jump Street (2012)
21 Jump Street isn’t the greatest movie ever. In my opinion, it isn’t even close. However, that doesn’t mean that this movie isn’t worth watching. I find that it has some cheesy moments, a slight romance, but mostly comedy and action. I appreciate a good hardcore guns blazing shooting …
Definitly, Maybe

21 and Over (movie)
The first time that I even found out about the movie “21 and Over” had to be when I was watching something else in the theatre and I saw it advertise in the Coming Attractions. Even then it didn’t seem like it was going to be very good, but …

After I watched “All the King’s Men” and wrote my review I read some other reviews. For a minute I thought I had watched a totally different movie. Almost universally “All the King’s Men” was panned by the critics. The movie was not just panned but picked to pieces …
Movie “30 Days of Night”
I adore this movie. I have always loved vampire movies. I don’t consider myself a huge vampire fan, so much as a fan of a certain type of horror movie. I enjoy supernatural horror films quite a bit. A good haunting, a vampire or a …
Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
It was an exhausting movie, with action everywhere, and debris flying all over the place. I am not a big transformers fan (probably because I am a girl), although I appreciated the effects of this Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. I grew up watching my brothers fight over …
3:10 to Yuma, movie
Although this movie is a remake of a terrific film, with Russell Crowe and Christian Bale taking the leads, this film did more than just update a classic; it surpassed it. “3:10 to Yuma” is more than just a western. This is a movie that could well be …

Half Nelson Movie
Half Nelson is one of those movie that you absolutely have to watch more than once just because you can never get all the details and all the meaning from the first time. There is not a single false movie in the movie, there isn’t a single acting moment …
Timeline (2003)

Film The Collector (1965)
William Wyler’s The Collector, filmed in 1965, is possibly one of the most disturbing films ever made. It is a suspense film and a character study and one of the bleakest at that, as well.

Friday the 13th part 6 isn’t my favorite, but there are a few scenes that I really love. One thing that I loved is that two 1980’s actors from soap operas appear in the movie. The first is a man who played Duncan on As the World Turns. On …

Oz the Great and Powerful (2013 movie)
Oz The Great and Powerful tries so hard to be epic. It has a very entertaining feeling. There are aspects of the movie that are brilliant and there were things that I thought needed some work. Sometimes I thought the pacing of the film was a little off and …
