Transformers The Movie
The series which this movie is based on is undeniably one of my all-time favorites since I was a kid. Now that Michael Bay together with Steven Spielberg made Transformers into an extraordinarily amazing movie, my interest in Sci-Fi movies has broadened into such great fascination that I became …
DADDY DAY CARE Movies
Wow, this movie was funny (of course it had Eddie Murphy, the king of laughs in it) and actually had good morals to it. It is basically about a Dad that finds himself without job and being the typical guy that he is, he desperately wants to find something …
Man of the year movie
Man of the year is a movie staring Robin Williams as a late night comedian who decides to run for president after a member of the audience suggest it. No one really thought he had a chance, however through a glitch with the new Delacroy voting machines he …
Matt’s Million movie
When I began watching this British movie, I thought, “Definitely not Hollywood.” I don’t know how to describe it, but the movie had this simplistic, almost amateur feel. However, very soon I stopped noticing it.
The story itself is not very original: a teenage boy unexpectedly becomes a millionaire. I …
Slumdog Millionaire
I just watched Slumdog Millionaire, it was my first time seeing it. It was a blu-ray rental and I have to say it is a movie that is superb and deserved all of the Golden Globes, Oscars and Bafta awards that it won.
The movie follows a young boy …

Yours, Mine and Ours (2005 Film)
While the cast of the 2005 film “Yours, Mine & Ours” is respectable and some of my favorite actors are involved in it, the film itself did not do their skills much justice and was a flop. I found the film to be a re-make almost of other films …
Como agua para chocolate movie
A film about food, and what effect it can have on people’s lives. Tita is a young woman with a very strict mother who won’t allow her to marry anyone she wants. Tita shows her frustration, or rather gets rid of it, by cooking food, which become very famous …
The Hottie & The Nottie
Considering it had Paris Hilton in the starring role and the fact it came straight to DVD, I had a lot of doubts about the film The Hottie & The Nottie.
After all, this is 2008, you would think a movie that focuses just on a woman’s looks rather than …
High School Musical: Bubblegum Pop
There’s nothing better than a hot cup of cocoa and a movie. Inasmuch as the acting is flat, the characters vapid and bordering on caricature, the music a work of a bygone age of pop, and a little too wholesome for high school, I had an amazing time watching …
American Beauty movie
The movie “American Beauty” is a great film that will definitely become an American classic. Millions of Americans have enjoyed the movie, but my experience with the film is unique.
About five years ago, my friends and I watched this film, and we still watch it to this day. …
12 Angry Men
12 Angry Men goes to show that you need special effects, huge budgets, and fancy costumes to make a good movie. All you need is great acting and a great story. 12 Angry Men is the story of a jury who is deciding the fate of a …
The World is Not Enough movie
The World is Not Enough is a film that in my opinion should never have been made. It’s another 007 film starring Pierce Brosnan for the third time, and it was very successful at the box office. The whole concept of James Bond has been held alive all these …

Superbad (movie)
Unless you are a high school/college student or an intensely teen-hearted adult, this movie has nothing to offer you. It is nothing but two hours of dialogue about drugs, alcohol, and degrading comments about women; step foot onto any college campus in the nation, and you will be able …
Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix
Since I don’t have time to sit down and read the books, my only knowledge of Harry Potter is through the movies. And, I have to say the movies aren’t getting better as the series progresses.
I had high hopes for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix because …
D3: The Mighty Ducks
Back with a blast is the third and final installment of the Mighty Ducks trilogy. It is an amazing family movie. I liked it just as much as the other Mighty Ducks movies. The Mighty Ducks team have been invited to play high school hockey on scholarship at Eden …

Beastmaster movie
Whenever I watch Beastmaster, I can understand why it’s a movie that has been shown on television as much as it has.
Marc Singer puts on a very good performance as Dar, a man who is seeks revenge against the evil priest who slaughtered his entire family at the beginning …
Girl Positive (movie)
As I mentioned previously I love watching some Lifetime movies even though a lot of them aren’t necessarily up to par when it comes to acting, writing and directing. Even the storylines at time don’t even add up. However, when I watched the movie “Girl, Positive”, it was definitely …

“Nine Queens” is a 2000 movie from Argentina about grifters or con-men. The movie is in Spanish but the DVD comes with a choice of subtitles. The movie is in color and was filmed on locations throughout Buenos Aires.
Ostensibly the movie is about two con-men: Juan, played by …
Interview with the Vampire (the movie)
I absolutely love this movie! I remember when I was about 10 years old and I would watch it all the time in the dark at night. But I loved the acting. The language was fluid to me, like flowing water, and I hung onto the actors …
Breakin All The Rules Movie
Breakin all the rules
This movie is basically about how the wrong people are in relationships together and then they eventually get with their soulmate or so it seems. That was my interpretation of it but i am sure if someone else watched it, they will say another story. Why? …

The Hannah Montana Movie
My daughter loves Hannah Montana (even though she rarely watches the show) so we ended up renting Hannah Montana: The Movie for her. Turns out she barely even sat through the beginning but at least my wife and I ended up loving it.
I actually kind of like the show …

Notting Hill movie
“Notting Hill” is one of my favourite all time romantic comedies. I think I like it so much because it presents a very straight forward story with a nice comic touch in it. Even though this movie is all about Julia Roberts and Hugh Grants acting abilities, it also …
A beautiful mind film
A beautiful mind is a great movie and it deserved all the academy awards it got. It is one of those movies which leaves the viewer with a little pain after watching the movie. Russell Crowe and Jennifer Connelly starred in this classic movie and Russell Crowe is at …

Flight of the Phoenix
Hollywood has long been known to produce some great movies. It seems the wheels of the machine have stopped turning of late and all they will produce are remakes. Some, of course, seem light years better than others. Among the few that are destined to be forgotten are Flight …

Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf movie
Columbo: Columbo Cries Wolf is one of the outings that I always remember, probably because it featured two soap opera stars in the leads. It’s not that I’m a fan of either of them, as I’m not, but it’s just something I remember. The two actors are …

Harrison Ford starred as the President of the United States in Air Force One, a 1997 action thriller. The picture was full of fine performers: Glenn Close, Paul Guilfoyle, William H. Macy, Dean Stockwell, and Gary Oldman, just to name a few. It was high on adventure …
