Movie Deja Vu
I watched this a while back with my mother. Both of us really enjoyed the movie. It kept us entertained and interested during the whole film. Denzel Washington plays in it as one of the main characters. It’s a unique movie, I really enjoyed watching it. It was a …
Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Gallop movie
I have to say that the first thing I noticed about this second entry in the movie’s Miss Marple mystery movie by Agatha Christie is the very bright and campy musical theme. It’s just so bubbly and merry that it seems like follows should be more of a …
The Cobbler, Movie
The Cobbler is a very different kind of movie to the ones normally associated with its star, Adam Sandler. He’s had movies, such as Reign Over Me, that have really demonstrated his ability to tackle serious subject matter and deliver moving performances. Whilst I am a fan of some of …
Rowan Atkinson
I think Rowan Atkinson is an actor who would deny his audience nothing. Whatever the need may be even if the scene requires him to go naked (but he only would not allow himself into frontal nudity), he would do it. But despite that, his personality as …
Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Sweeny Todd was such a great movie! I saw it at the Prescreening. It was a very dark and very musical and funny film all at once! I think Johnny Depp did a great job of playing the part of Sweeny Todd. I also think everyone else did a great …

American Beauty (drama movie)
I was reading a book about writing screenplays and at one point it referred to the movie “American Beauty” as an example of a good fairly modern screenplay. However when I watched it for myself, I realised that it wasn’t just the screenplay that was good, but the entire movie.
The …
House of Wax 2005
I watched this movie back when it was releasing in 2005 my friends was telling me how it was going to be terrible and Paris Hilton being in it was absolutely going to ruin it. However, one night out we were bored out of our minds so we …
Shinobi movie

Were the Millers (movie)
When I first saw the trailer for “We’re the Millers” on television, I decided that it looked funny enough for me to see it as a light hearted comedy after it was released. I didn’t think that it would actually be hilarious though since it had actors such as …
Amelie (romantic comedy movie)
After watching it, I’ve come to the conclusion that “Amelie” is one of those movies that is so unique and enjoyable that I could find myself watching it multiple times. This is even though I’m not a huge fan of most romantic comedies.
The movie revolves around the very peculiar …

Spinout movie
I’ve watched Spinout numerous times in my life, and I both like it and dislike it. I’ll say straight up that the reason I’m not fond of it is that I don’t like the ending. From the time I first saw it as a little girl, I …

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 …

Storm Warning Movie
Storm Warning is easily one of the best horror movies that I’ve seen in a long time, which is ironic considering that it isn’t really a horror movie, at least not in the traditional sense. If a magazine were to review this movie they would probably say it falls …

This is a sequel to Daddy Dare care where they have expanded the business from a simple care area and now they have bought a camp in order to be able to take care of more children at once. Business is slow and the attendance is low which causes …
30 Days of Night
As far as vampire flicks go, the movie 30 Days of Night has a lot of potential. However, it falls a bit short.
When I saw the previews for the movie, I just had to see it. After all, what can be scarier than a group of vampires visiting an …

Movie Waiting…
Don’t make my mistake and watch the movie “Waiting ” I don’t know why I actually bothered to spend two hours of my time watching a movie that did go any where! I should have stopped the movie the moment I saw Ryan Reynolds on the screen. I saw …
Mulholland Drive (2001)
Mulholland Drive is an absolute masterpiece from surreal director David Lynch, but it is not for everybody I guess. Some people are going to be irritated at the strangeness of this film, but others like me enjoy that strangeness and it serves to draw us into the mystery. …

The Parent Trap (remake)
I am very skeptical about remakes, and since the original The Parent Trap was one of my all time favorite family films, when I saw the remake arriving on the scene in 1998, I was concerned, big time. Happily, though, I found the remake to be delightful. It’s …
Premonotion
This was a very good movie. I was interested throughout the whole movie. I loved it and would like to buy this movie some day. Sandra Bullock plays the main character and she does an amazing job. Even though it goes back and forth a lot in the movie …

I actually found the movie “Copying Beethoven” by accident as I had confused it with another movie I had seen years earlier and was searching high and low for a very long time. As soon as I saw the movie begin, I realised that it was not the movie …
Get Smart movie
“Get Smart” was a great show back in 1965 when the first episode aired, although I was too young to actual watch the first episode, I enjoyed many years of reruns. Surprisingly, one of the creators was Mel Brooks, which I think is a naturally funny guy without really …
The Freedom Writers movie
I never knew this movie existed till I watched it on Fox Movies channel on cable just last night and wow, I just want to say that it is really a great movie. Cinemas nowadays are just filled with films and movies that just don’t have the depth. And …

Rare are those animated films that I have to watch in cinemas. And in rare occasions like this one, I rushed my way into the metro traffic just to catch the last screening of Zootopia in my local cinema. I fear that I might not be able to watch it …
Hellboy 2 The Golden Army
Hellboy 2 The Golden Army is a good movie for a guy to take his girl to if he wants to get some good relationship points. This movie is great and will hold your attention from start to finish. I liked the special effects but I have to …
The Ring movie
I can remember when I watched the premiere of the movie “The Ring” on cable. I can’t remember which movie channel brought it, but what I do remember is that even though I did not expect it to be terrifying I still found it a little creepy. I had …
Elf
I’m still watching Christmas movies today, mostly because there isn’t a whole lot for me to do with everyone being sick and us being low on cash (yet again).
One movie that just came on that I haven’t seen in a while is the Will Ferrell film, Elf. I have …
Reign Over Me

Rendition
“Rendition” is a great movie about terrorism and justice. This is a movie that touches your heart and makes you cry, but most importantly makes you think about the world we are living in. I truly hope that this movie receives several awards because it truly deserves it.
