Mr. Woodcock
“Mr Woodcock” is a good comic movie; however I personally would have preferred that the main part went to a different actor rather than Billy Bob Thornton. In this movie, Thornton tried to interpret “Mr Woodcock” to his best of abilities, however while watching this film I couldn’t help …

A Simple Formality Movie
A film by the italian director named Tornatore about a famous author being accused of murder. Did he commit it or not?
Tornatore is known by many as the director behind critically acclaimed Cinema Paradiso, a film which in my opinion is very overrated and relies only on sentimentality.
This is …

The Blob movie
Mostly famous because an unknown Steve McQeeen plays the leading part. A some sort of monster movie, with a red blob taking over a whole city as it grows. I thought this was a comedy at first, because the dialogue was so corny. Poor Stevie struggles with silly lines …
Avatar 3D (2009, James Cameron)
I love this film.
I had heard a few grumbles about the ‘lack of plot’ and that watching 3D was tiring and made some people feel sick, and that the effects ruled the film and became too much.
Stuff and nonsense.
First of all, yes - the 3D glasses are not …

Movie Enchanted
I usually like movies based on fairy tales and, overall, the film Enchanted wasn’t bad. But, I think the movie used too much of the same-old format to make it good.

You Can’t Run Away From It movie
I’m not sure if I’ve seen You Can’t Run Away From It before or not. It’s vaguely familiar, but not readily in my brain. Of course, it could be the basic story that rings in my head since this is a musical remake of the classic, “It …
