Battle L.A. Movie
I had not heard much about Battle L.A., which is surprising because it is the current big blockbuster alien movie and that usually means millions of dollars in advertising. The only advertising I have seen for this film is some posters in subway stations. The posters explain the basic …
Confessions of a Shopoholic
When I first saw the movie “Confessions of a Shopoholic” advertising to be released in theatres, I did not pay it any attention since it seemed like a silly little comedy; but when I did get to watch it some time ago, I realised that it was actually a …
Roots movie
This is a movie that changed my perspective on life forever! No movie has ever approached its impact on my psyche. This movie revealed my history in the very saddest and unflattering terms. This movie succeeded in erasing my innocent perspective od United States History and forever cast a …
Ogre movie
We ended up watching a DVD last night of a movie that originally aired on the Sci Fi Channel last year; Ogre.
When we got the DVD, I wasn’t sure what to expect. It looked like it would be a somewhat crappy movie that would rely heavily on blood and …
Man of The Year
Man of the Year is a good comedy. From all of the trailors I thought they would actually let the comedian become president not that he would get the truth out in time. I enjoyed the movie I just think it would have been funnier the other way if …
My Best Friend’s Girl
I find this movie witty, funny but if only those some rude words or lewd could be ignored or totally deleted from the scenes, I would label this as a very user-friendly or a clean family and date movie. I love Kate Hudson’s acting; always have and I find …
The Devil and a Guy Named Webster
The premise of this episode is pretty much laid out in the title: The Devil and a Guy Named Webster. It is a fusion of the classic tale: The Devil and Daniel Webster, but instead of the famous American orator we get Emmanuel Lewis (best known as star …

Nightmare on Elm Street the remake (2010 Film)

Film Sleepy Hollow
God bless him, Tim Burton has taken Irving Washington’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow and turned it into a first class horror movie and a beautiful romance too. I’ve always disliked the original tale because, despite his flaws, you care about Ichabod Crane and you want him to get the …
The Nude Bomb
I have never watched the show Get Smart; even though it has been on television in re-runs for decades. Yet, for some reason, when I saw the movie based on the series “The Nude Bomb,” I figured I would watch it.
I didn’t even get halfway through it before I …
The Movie Toy Story

Hope Floats
I admit that I generally enjoy watching Sandra Bullock’s movie; however “Hope Floats” failed to impress me. I feel that there is something missing script wise which failed to make a good movie. I also believe that “Hope Floats” was another Bullock attempt to make a romantic movie tackling a …
The movie Snow Buddies
Snow Buddies…. oh my goodness. There were so many Air Bud films that it was ridiculous. Now comes this one, yet another air bud movie that is so much like Snow Dogs that its sickening.
This movie is about 5 golden retriever puppies whose curiosity gets them landed in …
Big Nothing movie
“Big Nothing” is a comedy about how to stay on the wrong side of the law with the actors, David Schwimmer and Simon Pegg at their best. I must admit that this movie could have been better if there was good work on the script and the way it …
Max and Mary (2009 movie)

Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) Movie

The Clinic 2010 movie
As far as a horror movie goes this is every women’s nightmare. I didn’t find this film either jumpy neither scary but i found it utterly disturbing. The thought that some of those things can happen in real life, that places like this existed was disturbing enough without having …
Arizona Days movie
Arizona Days, one of the many western motion pictures released way back in 1937, was just Tex Ritter’s 3rd movie. As one of the new singing cowboys, the big thing to note here is that his trusted horse, White Flash, wasn’t credited yet. That would change soon, …
The Breed
While the movie The Breed isn’t one of the better scary movies I’ve watched, it still turned out to be a half way decent thriller and I would recommend taking the time to rent it.

To be completely honest before I had watched this movie the trailer was so disappointing that I wasn’t really looking forward to it. I just happened to want to watch a movie and came across it. However this was one of those movies that just really got to me. …

Stomp the Yard (starring Columbus Short)
Before you guys go into thinking that Stomp the Yard is not worth it, think again. Sure, this movie does has its bad moments, but one word or term that I’ve come to learn would be “stepping”. This is like a lingo known as dancing or step up …

The Brontes of Haworth

2010 was the year of survival films. The best one was the Slumdog Millionaire’ award winning director’s following film, based on the actual, tragic and yet unevenly proud and awe-inspiring story of Aaron Ralston.

Transporter 2 (2005 movie)
What is the aim of this motion picture? Where is the purpose? If you ask me, there are none. This movie developes waaaaay too fast, there is too much momentum. I find it hard to put in words how terrible this movie is. The original of this one overshadows …
