This movie was overall alright. I enjoyed watching some parts of the movie. Some parts not so much. In some parts it was boring or wasn’t really funny. You could also tell that it was a low budget film. There were a couple of parts that were funny. It’s …

I was a bit skeptical when Friday the 13th the 09 version was coming out. People didn’t hear much about it. And the cast was practically unheard of, which was a worry for all the fans of the series.

Cromartie High School is no ordinary school. It’s a school for delinquents. The most important subject is “fighting” and their biggest concern is “who the biggest badass is?” Everything they talk about is completely random and has nothing to do with school. You could say this anime is pointless, …

I’ve seen this movie just this year when I bought this DVD. My friends advised me to watch the movie because it seemed that they were totally hooked and amazed to the story. Frankly, I am not a vampire fan and this is the first time that I watched …

Starring: Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker, Hal Delrich, and Theresa Tilly.

Launching Sam Raimi’s career, The Evil Dead is a weird mixture of gore, horror, and comedy; not exactly in the same vein as something such as RoboCop, that’s an entirely different animal of a film. …

This is one of my favorite Sylvester Stallone movies. I loved the action scenes in this movie and the constant antagonism between him and Wesley Snipes. This movie was definitely not boring in any way and had so many great fight scenes. Wesley Snipes played the perfect nemesis …

The 2003 film “Alex and Emma” starring Kate Hudson in the early stages of her career, and Luke Wilson, was a film that was really trying to be romantic and funny. I could see it in the jokes and scenes that were exaggerated. However, it really did not deliver. …

Only You starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr., is a funny, charming and shamelessly romantic movie. It does not pretend to be anything other than it is, it is a movie for people who love romantic comedies, and who love the concept of romance, and believe that it …

I suuuuuper love this movie! The concept, the visuals, the sounds, the costumes, the actors, the abs… Although I already knew what was going to happen to them, I still loved how they came to that grand finale. And even if Leonidas was supposedly killed by a rain of …

I have always been a huge fan of vampire movies, but I have to say that Robert Rodriguez’s “From Dusk Till Dawn” is the most bizarre vampire movie I have ever seen. There is a lot of great talent in this movie - including George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Juliette …
