Gidget Grows Up
There was a bit of hiatus between the original three Gidget movies and TV series of the early and mid-60’s to this made-for-TV movie of 1969, but it was worth the wait. Gidget Grows Up is in reality my third favorite of the entire Gidget franchise. It’s …
Movie Family Stone
I watched this movie on cable about a week ago. I wanted to see it when it first came out and I totally forgot all about it. So when it was on the other night I watched it. It started out really good but toward the middle and the …
Tenacious D (movie)
“Tenacious D” was a movie that I watched recently on a cable television channel. I can remember seeing the movie being promoted when it had just come out, but I had dismissed it completely because I thought that it was going to be silly, and I generally don’t find …
Bruno
I was torn into two pieces by this movie. I didn’t want to see it at first because I thought it would be extremely stupid. And I believed this due to Sacha Baron Cohen’s appearances on television shows as “Bruno.” The character himself was not funny at all, to …

John Wick, Movie
I love revenge movies. They appeal to our baser instincts and when they’re done well they strike us at our emotional core. John Wick is a superb revenge flick that oozes style and menace.
From the outset this film makes its intentions very clear. It is light on dialogue and …
Ocean’s Thirteen
Ocean’s Thirteen with George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle, Bernie Mac, Ellen Barkin, and Al Pacino.
This is an elaborate movie based on the revenge concept. What made it so special is the huge star studded cast of superstar actors. …
Klute Movie

The Man from Earth - 2007 - by Jerome Bixby
This is a truly a great film from start to finish. If you like fast action movies, this is not for you, it takes place in a two room studio and the drama comes from the sharp dialogue rather than the scenery.
The title does not provide …
Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs
I received the DVD Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs for Christmas. I liked both the movies before it, and I missed seeing Dawn of the Dinosaurs in the theaters, so I wanted to see it on DVD. The movie is a continuation of the last two …
Corpse Bride movie
Visual genius Tim Burton’s newest film is similar to The Nightmare Before Christmas, which he wrote the story for. This time he directed himself, and created a stop-motion animation story of the highest class. The story is about a young man (voiced by Johnny Depp) who is getting married, …
Knocked Up film
Judd Apatow brings us his sophomore directorial effort Knocked Up, another comedy in the same spirit as his first film, The 40 Year Old Virgin, which starred Steve Carrell of NBC’s The Office.

The Day After Tomorrow
Director Ronald Emmerich has given us some of the most adored Hollywood blockbusters such as Independence Day and Godzilla but his new venture “The Day After Tomorrow” is not up to par with his earlier work. In this flick he uses the most sought after object of the present …
Star Trek Generations: Love and Hated it

The Matrix movie
I just love The Matrix movie. I watched it five times on the big screen. I love special effects and just from the looks of the movie trailer alone, I could already tell that I was going to love this film. True enough, I got hooked …
The Proposal movie
I am reviewing the 2009 movie, The Proposal, starting Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White.
The plot to this movie is quite simple. Sandra Bullock plays a mean, severely unlikeable boss, who, when threatened with deportation, blackmails her assistant into pretending that they are married. There’s only …
Circus of Fear movie
The movie “Circus of Fear” is one of the actor Christopher Lee’s older movies. At first I got the impression from the title that it was going to be a horror film, but, instead it turned out to be more of a mystery/suspense film. Personally, even though the …
The Lion King
I love everything about this movie. It was very funny. The animation was fantastic.
I first watched this in the theatre when I was in college. It was in the year 1994 when ‘The Lion King’ was in every movie house around the metropolis.
Of course the magnificence …
Beowulf (2007)
This movie is not to be confused with another movie by the same name and a similar plot which was released some time in either the late nineteen nineties or the early 2000s. I watched this movie some time either last week or the week before on a cable …
Pillow Talk movie
In 1959, Doris Day and Rock Hudson performed together for the first time, and they did it with style. This is a superb comedy with two great performances, not to mention the wonderful talents of Tony Randall. In this movie, Day and Hudson share a party line. …
Spiderman 3
I saw Spiderman 3 at a matinee the weekend after it opened. There had already been a ton of reviews stating just how horrible it was and that Sam Raimi is just a huge dissapointment with this one.
NEVER listen to critics. Always make your own decision when …

Click Movie review
I went to theatre to watch a comedy movie and ended up choosing The movie “CLICK.”Though this movie is a comedy ,the second half becomes like a drama. Adam Sandler’s acting seems to be funny.It looks more like a real life rather tthan a movie.He is able …

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 …
Splinter movie
Horror movie fans have been subjected to numerous ghastly, teen-driven horror flicks in recent years. “The Messengers”, “Pulse”, and “The Eye” are just a few of the countless titles that fall into that category, but nestled in among the dreck are a few classics that are a must see …

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016 Movie)

Hardball is a wonderful film about a gambling man, Conor O’Neill, who throws away all of his money on basketball betting. To make some money to pay of the debts, he must coach a little league baseball team in the Cabrini Green housing project in Chicago. This movie hits …
Iron Man
I believe that “Iron Man” is the best super hero movie for this year. What is really interesting about this movie is that it brings two great actors Robert Downey Junior and Gwyneth Partlow together on big screen for a great movie blockbuster.
In an interview, …
Spiderman 2 Movie

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
With hollywood turning every comic book into a movie that they can find, quality has some how taken a back seat. I’m not sure why these hollywood mega moguls would sacrifice putting out a good movie. It’s not like they need the money afterall. But nonetheless, quality is put …
Wild About Harry film
I actually liked the movie “Wild About Harry” because it was differnt from a lot of comedy films which I have seen. I also thought it was hilarious even though I don’t think that it could put put in the category of exceptionally good films. I usually find myself …
Jupiter Ascending (2015)-Movie
Jupiter Ascending is a average yet visually amazing movie.When i say average i am still being a bit generous because i believe despite the fact that it is forgettable movie, still it is a result of handwork of creators.They organized everything perfectly for it but things didn’t worked according to …
The Godfather
The Godfather is my favorite movie of all time. I love everything about it. Al Pacino, James Cann, Robert Duvall, and Marlon Brando play their roles with tremendous ability. They make their roles come alive and make the mafia family seem real. I especially like Maroln Brando as Vito …
The Invisible Man movie
This James Whale horror story, that came out between the Frankenstein movies, is my favorite of his work. Chilling story filled with suspense and remarkable effects and terribly good acting - especially from Claude Rains as the invisible man - makes this a landmark in early horror cinema. The …
Shop Around the Corner (1940)
In 1940 Loew’s, a production company that ceased operation in the mid 1950s released the black and white feature “Shop Around the Corner” in English lasting 99 minutes. For some strange reason the movie was set in Budapest that somehow doesn’t quite work with Jimmy Stewards folksy, mid-western accent. …
Naked Gun 33 1/3
Naked Gun 33 1/3

A fairytale story about some teenagers finding themselves in the world of Snow White, Cinderella and lots of other fairytale characters when walking through Central Park in New York.

Blockbuster Online
As far as advertisements go, I am perhaps the most skeptical. You would not believe my surprise at Blockbusters attempt at online rentals.
I actually love it.
I was already a longtime member of the video store chain. I tried the online rentals because it was a good way …
