The Mangler
I like Ted Levine and Robert Englund and thought maybe they could have made a film based on a Stephen King short story halfway interesting. But, even though they do a decent job acting in the movie “The Mangler” there is just too much they can’t make up for.
Let’s …
Dream Girls
Maybe it’s because I’m watching it on cable before 8 in the morning, but the movie Dream Girls just isn’t as good as I expected it to be.
I would think a movie about a 60s female singing group would make a great musical to watch. But, for the most …
“The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of The Dawn Treader” film
I am a huge “The Chronicles of Narnia” fan. I remember it as being the first book series I ever read.

Madea’s Family Reunion movie

Bachelor Party Vegas movie
When I first loaded the movie Bachelor Party Vegas on our netflix player, I wasn’t sure what to expect. i figured it was either a comedy or a soft core porn film. So, I waited until the kids were spending the night at their grandparents’ before my wife and …
The Beautician and the Beast
This silly little flick of a movie seems to be one of those that people either love, for whatever reason, or hate. It was filmed in 1997 when the Soviet Union no longer existed, but certain fascination with it obviously still did; so the moviemakers invented this Eastern European …
Spiderman The Motion Picture
With great power comes great responsibility. With great movies comes greater ones. This is how I feel about the first Spiderman. I believe this movie moved the caliber of comic book-to-movie projects up a notch.
This movie showed that we can have great comic book movies with great characters and …

No Reservations (2007 Romance Drama Movie)
It literally took me years to decide I was going to watch the movie “No Reservations’. This was because I thought that I wouldn’t love it even though one of my favourite actresses, Catherine Zeta-Jones was playing one of the leads. This was because I had seen it being aired …

A very weak comedy to be honest with only a few funny moments combined with …
Freaky Friday movie
Upon seeing the trailer of Freaky Friday I was already laughing my head off so I decided that I would watch the movie. I’m sure glad I did because the movie was worth every penny. I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. Freaky Friday is a …
Stuck (R, 2007) movie
I can recall the actual events surrounding this little film. Quite frankly, I was surprised to even see something like this on Netflix. But since Hollywood will make a movie out of anything, I shouldn’t be that surprised. The true story centers around a young African-American …

Interview with a Vampire
When the movie Interview with a Vampire came out, I thought it was a fantastic film. And, I still do think it is better than some of the so-called vampire movies that are out today (like Twilight). But, I have to tell you, I watched it again last night …

The movie die hard has been out for a very long time. I myself have seen it many times, and each time I watch it I can always find something new and great about the movie. Not only is this Bruce Willis’s biggest role but it’s one of the …
Moviez
I think that Shakespeare was the one to say that never a borrower or lender be. This is probably wise advice I have found out myself when I have lent out a few items. They have mainly been movies and the most sorely lost, recently, was Farscape Vol. 1 …
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Whenever Hollywood produces a movie about superheroes that is successful at the box office, it isn’t unusual to see them attempt to make a sequel. Usually, the sequel is nowhere near as good as the original.
Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer is a perfect example of this.
When I …

Movie: “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past”
I was very excited to see the new romantic comedy, “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past”. It’s a modern love story version of the Charles Dickens classic “A Christmas Carol”. I adore Dickens, and I’m always up for a modern remake a la “West Side Story” or “The Diary of Bridget …
A Thousand Words (movie)
I’m really not a huge fan of Eddie Murphy’s movies and so when the movie “A Thousand Words” came out I wasn’t really interested in seeing it. It took me a couple months of yearning for a proper comedy to watch and a little bit of boredom to see …
The Langoliers movie
As a young child, one of my scariest memories was made as a result of watching the movie “The Langoliers” one night. I was not able to get the images of giant meatball-like creatures with moving razor sharp teeth out of my head, and often had dreams about them. …

This movie was originally shown in IMAX theatres but it is now on DVD. It is about the series of terribly destructive eruptions that happened in the 80s. At the time it erupted, I was too young to really remember hearing about it on the news and since I …
Milk movie
I recently saw the movie Milk with Sean Penn. He is a really good actor and played this part perfectly. I wasn’t familiar with the real Harvey Milk, but I felt like I was after watching Penn’s portrayal.
Harvey Milk was the first openly gay councilmen to be elected …

84 Charing Cross Road
This gem of a movie is unfairly little known. Made in 1987, it stars Anthony Hopkins and Anne Bancroft who tell a touching story of a 20-year-long friendship of two people who actually haven’t seen each other face to face.
Helene Hanff (Bancroft) is a struggling writer in New York …
The Deep End of the Ocean
I haven’t seen this movie for years until I saw it on television again late last year. It has a similar name to another movie called “The Deep End” and is not to be confused with it as they both have two completely different plots. Nevertheless I think that …
Norbit
When I first watched the movie Norbit, in the theater, I wasn’t really impressed by it. However, after watching it again last night, I have to admit I found it a lot better on DVD.
My biggest objection to Norbit the first time I watched it is I felt it …

Little Miss Sunshine
Little Miss Sunshine is a road movie with a difference. A dysfunctional family from suburbia on their way to child’s talent contest seemed about as attractive to me as watching paint dry ! But I must say I was pleasantly surprised. A nice mix of humour and pathos and …
