I’m not much of an animated movie fan. I love watching movies with real people in it, not cartoons! I think those animated movies are just plain childish. Sometimes, what is funny to a child may no longer be that funny in the adult context. But, I gotta hand …

In 1970, Carter’s Army was released, and somewhere along the line it’s been re-released under the name Black Brigade. Now what is interesting to me is that before writing my review, I was checking out the credits and ran across the first few lines of comments someone made …

I watched this a couple years ago on lifetime movie network. I remember the movie really well though because it was so good. It is by far one of my favorite movies they play, if not my favorite. It’s about a woman that can’t get child support from her …

I cannot say that I have always been a huge Billy Bob Thorton or Seann William Scott fan, but I did like Bad Santa and my husband enjoyed American Pie so we decided that we would rent this particular movie to watch one night after the kids went to …

Last night I went with my friends to see the Contraband movie. The preview and the reviews were promising, plus the stellar cast was a reassuring factor. Though, on the other hand, despite being a great actor, Mark Whalberg’s recent choices in projects is a bit of a …

I have a pretty good and fair deal with my wife as far as movie watching goes. She will watch just about anything with me, which is usually a lot. And every now and then I have to sit through a chick flick type of film with her. Over …

For me, it is hard to see what the problem is or was with Fantasia. Most critics hated it back in 1940, especially classical music enthusiasts. They felt Disney animators butchered a beautiful art form. How naive is that? The animation was fantastic and, I felt, only …

Four Christmases is a mediocre holiday tale about a couple with a tradition of scheduling trips to avoid spending Christmas with their families. But when extreme fog cancels their flight, Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate (Reese Witherspoon) are forced to attend four Christmas celebrations.
An interesting aspect of this movie …

Ok, after seeing other Dr. Seuss books turned into movies with mixed results, I had my doubts about Horton Hears a Who. But, after watching it last night, I have to say I was very impressed.
I had expected the movie, which is about an elephant who discovers and protects …

I normally like movies Anthony Hopkins has a role in. Unfortunately, the movie Proof didn’t have enough of him to make it any good.
Hopkins plays a former math genius who is battling senility but the movie centers around his daughter (Gwenneth Paltrow) who has to cope with not only …

I really don’t believe I’ve seen many Gene Autry movies, but the other day I was bored and there was nothing, and I mean nothing, on TV so I tuned in to a 1953 flick called Winning of the West. What I love about these old movies is …

When I read the description of the 2006 movie Hatchet, I figured it was going to be a low-budget film that relied heavily on blood and gore and not much on actual plot. Sadly, I was correct.
While the movie did have flashes of potential, it turned out to be …

There is this movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger long before he became the Governer of California, it was called the Predator.

Then he goes down to the underworld of London to seek answers.
A very stupid and pointless …

Recently, for the holiday season, I came across a movie that was being showed on ABC Family called “The Sons of Mistletoe”. The film came out in 2001. Being that the film was on ABC Family, I figured I could count on this film being one that was heartwarming …

I wasn’t expecting much from the movie The Ramen Girl simply because I’m not a huge Brittany Murphy fan. But, I will admit, it turned out to be better than expected.
Murphy is convincing as a woman who travels to Japan to be with her boyfriend and, after getting dumped …

I had read the book a few years back, and I honestly never thought they would ever make a movie about it since it was literally just a bunch of letters that people had written to ask questions about their relationships. So, when I heard that the movie for …

This latest installment of the Indiana Jones series is my least favorite because of several things. It’s not as fun and entertaining; Harrison Ford as Henry “Indiana” Jones is no longer as hot as he was in the “Raiders of the Lost Ark”; and I don’t like the story …

Last Action Hero, directed by John McTiernan is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America. The original release date was June 18, 1993 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Adventure/Comedy/Fantasy and stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as Jack Slater, F. Murray Abraham as John …

“Fantastic Four” is a bad 2005 movie featuring Marvel Comics’ first family of superheroes. Although the movie features some good casting decisions and updates the horribly dated background of the team, some of the problems with the film are so significant that they drag the whole movie down …

Maybe I’m a little late in reviewing “The 10th Kingdom” miniseries, but seeing as it’s the ten year anniversary of when it aired on NBC, I figured I’d share my thoughts. I recently watched the DVD of “The 10th Kingdom”, and it’s the first time I’ve seen the movie …

First-time feature film director Andrés Muschietti tries with Mama, an expansion of his earlier short film similarly titled, to paint the horror genre into a warmer, more fantastical light, whilst at the same time keeping overused plot contrivances as a foundation, so that the modern audience might not feel …

I, having loved the first two Shrek films, was eagerly awaiting the third installment. All the trailers were extremely funny and enticing. And on opening weekend I was there, with my little Shrek and Puss I got from McDonalds and I was also wearing my green “I …

Like many others who watched and re-watched the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy multiple times, I had high hopes for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.” But, after sitting through the film, I was left very disappointed.
First of all, the film was too long. Now, I understand that “The Hobbit” …

What is there to not love about a movie with a dynamite cast, amazingly relatable and entertaining plot, and an ending that leaves viewers feeling warm and fuzzy and hopeful for their own futures. If you haven’t already guessed, I am talking about the 1988 film, “Mystic Pizza” starring …

“She’s the Man” is the movie that confirms what a great actress, Amanda Bynes is. In this movie, we see her interpret the role of a boy most of the time. On a personal level, this movie was a great success for the actor, Channing Tatum because he managed …

I thought that I’d watched all the movies with Anna Paquin in it until I saw another one recently on cable television. It was a horror movie named “Darkness”, which I noticed didn’t have a very good rating on neither the cable television guide nor IMDB. Nevertheless, sometimes I …

If you’ve seen the 2009 movie Adventureland’s poster, you probably wouldn’t think it’s a kind of dark coming-of-age story. Well, it is. Anyone expecting laugh-out-loud comedy in the same vein as director Greg Mottola’s previous film, Superbad, would be in for a disappointment. I was glad to find, however, …

Way before I saw the movie, I read the trilogy. And it was a really good series. So when I heard the movie was coming out and saw the trailer, I was excited. The trailer looked really good and I was so sure that the movie was going to …

The best way to eve try and explain this movie is to compare it with Tarzan and then give it an over all switch in the level of deepness in the character, toss in a heap of comedy and you have yourself a movie that has been remade into …

A Clint Eastwood and Tom Hanks joint biopic sounds too good to be true. But it is 2017 now and apparently anything could happen. Back in the beginning of 2016, I greatly waited for this, but when the time it became available in cinemas I told myself to just wait …

I just saw Jonah Hex, and my exact thoughts of seeing the movie: “what the?” Jonah Hex is one of those movies where almost all things predictable culminates. The story is about (guess who?) Jonah Hex, a soldier accused of betraying his regimen and killing Jeb Turnbull, his best …

Borrowed Hearts is one of my all time favorite Christmas movies. My mom, sister and I have to watch it every year. You can now buy the DVD of this movie or watch it on tv during the Christmas season. It stars Roma Downey, Hector Elizondo, and Eric McCormack(from …

I don’t go to the cinema all that often - not only is it quite expensive, but also I prefer to be able to pause, rewind, have a snack without disturbing fellow viewers and, most of all, I like to talk during a movie. Therefore, I tend to watch …

In 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox released the marvelous musical, Call Me Madam with Ethel Merman, Donald O’Connor, and Vera-Ellen. It’s high-powered, high-energy, and high-five fun. I love these kind of innocent musicals where the story is lighthearted and the songs merry. Oh, there’s some heartbreak and drama …

M. Night Shyamalan first became famous after the release of the movie he directed entitled The Sixth Sense. After that, he directed a number of less successful movies. The Village is a movie of his that did not get very good reviews when it came out. …

Director: Rob Cohen. Featuring: Paul Walker, Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez.
That movie is definitely a classic. It is fun, exciting and really cool. I personally don’t know anything about cars or racing them, but after watching the movie I wished I did. The Fast and the Furious is …

I like this movie although I saw it few years ago. I thought it is usual, but for anyone who haven’t seen it yet, I can recommend it.
Starring Richard Gere, who portrayed the role of Edward Sumner, a good husband and family man.
The unfaithful half is Connie …

This simple story of two dogs getting together is made all the more unique because it is told from the point of view of the dogs. I found this fact to be charming. There have been many stories done in this manner, but I think Lady and the Tramp …

Stealing Harvard is about a guy and a promise he made years before which he sort of regretted. To cheer his niece up after she lost at a spelling bee he promised he would’ve paid for her college tuition to wherever she got accepted. Unfortunately for him she got …

Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure is a great cartoon movie! This was another Red Box dvd kiosk rental, and it was well worth it! I rented it for my 7 yr old daughter, but I loved watching it too! This movie was a shocker for me because I …

This is definitely a must see movie if you a fan of gruesome horror. This is probably one of the bloodiest and most disturbing movie that I have seen in a long time!
It has a great story behind it. A pregnant woman loses her husband in a …

It is hard to come by the words for this cool film. It is perfect for any age. It …

When I first rented 13 Going on 30, my first thought was, this is going to be a lot like the movie “Big.” I was glad I was wrong about it.
Jennifer Garner does a great job portraying a 13-year-old girl who wishes she was 30 back in the 80s …

Rumor Has It…, directed by Rob Reiner is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for mature thematic material, sexual content, crude humor and a drug reference.

I really hate this episode. I am not sure what it is about it that bothers me so much. Perhaps it is just the fact that the humanity of androids is a topic that has been covered to death ten times or more already in the world …
