Images of Bruce Lee
Has Bruce Lee ever made a bad movie? Well, yes and no, he hasn’t. The movies starring Bruce Lee himself, yes they were awesome, and they still are. But after Bruce’s untimely death during the filming of the Crow, several savvy B-movie directors decided that they could easily capitalize …

The Internship (movie)
One of the movies that I watched very recently was a comedy named “The Internship” starring the popular comedy actors Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson. While I didn’t think that it was the funniest movie that I had seen recently, I still thought that it was interesting and light-hearted …
Pearl Harbor movie
I won’t be giving much plot info in this review, because that is easily accessible on Wikipedia or something. To start, I needed to state that I do not like romance movies in any way. I am more of an action movie type of gal, but I still …
“Hot Tub Time Machine” (2010) Film
The Movie is called “Hot Tub Time Machine” that title alone tells you what type of movie it is. No one would name an Oscar contender something so stupid. This is a movie whose producers are aware that it is a comedy and it is a …
A Dog’s Breakfast DVD
The A Dog’s Breakfast DVD is pretty terrific. If you’re a fan of David Hewlett or this movie specifically, I’ll start at the top by saying you’ll want to own this DVD.
A Dog’s Breakfast is a quirky independent film, but it’s an entertaining one as well. It …
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 …
Millennium movie
From 1989, this science fiction movie speaks to me for some reason, and I really don’t know why. There’s just something about it that makes me want to watch it, over and over again … and I do.
Millennium stars Kris Kristofferson as Bill Smith, who as a young …
Barbie’s Princess and Pauper Movie
As a girl, I loved to get Barbie dolls for Christmas or my birthday. I had so many different outfits, dolls, and other accessories that went with the toys, but I was already an adult when the movies started to come out. So as one can imagine, I was …
But I’m a Cheerleader (movie)
I watched this movie a long time ago a little after it was released, but I don’t think I was old enough to understand it enough to appreciate it. I forgot about it for a couple more years until I saw it on television recently again. I didn’t think …
Malibu’s Most Wanted (2003)

Suspicious River (R, 2000) movie
I am not a huge Molly Parker fan. But there is something about the actress’ delicate features and avant garde sensitivity that I am drawn to. For that reason, I decided to rent “Suspicious River”—a film about a young woman who works in a motel, …

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.
This fish-out-of-water story features Seth Rogen as Ben Stone, an immature guy who does nothing but smoke …
Awake (R, 2007)
I am definitely not a huge Jessica Alba fan. But I wanted to see this movie mainly because I was unsure how the director would put a spin on �anesthetic awareness��a condition that causes people undergoing surgery to feel pain and be conscious, but unable to move …
Get Smart Movie
I love Anne Hathaway, and I love Steve Carrell even more. Steve has shown so much potential through the years, his big break from Bruce Almighty made his career soar so much and I truly believe he deserves it. Anne is such a beauty and a professional actress who …

Employee of the Month, movie
Dane Cook’s first time out as a leading man left me laughing, but not so much at the movie, as at myself. I found this movie to hit all of the right marks for laughter but couldn’t being myself to admit that it was anything more than a poor …
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 …

Seven Pounds (2008)
This movie tells the story of a troubled man who has made decisions to help total strangers by doing selfless acts of kindness this is one way to look at the story mind you. I am torn whether to tell you what the other aspect could be until you …
In the Bedroom, movie
Based on the short story, “Killings,” by Andre Dubus, “In the Bedroom” is a smart film that can resonate with even the most emotionally closed off of people. This is a film that hits us all where it hurts the most: the death of a child. It’s a story …
James Bond - Lots of Quantum, No Solace
I am extremely disappointed! To the point of almost tears… So i finally got a chance to go see the latest Bond film, the Quantum of Solace…and Daniel Craig has managed to, single handedly, make me scream in agony.

Movie Monster Man
Monster Man is a horror comedy movie that starred by Eric Jungmann and Justin Ulrich. Why it’s called horror comedy movie? Because I think it’s full of intends but it’s also funny and the story is doesn’t make any sense.
Monster Man begin when Adam (Eric Jungmann) wanna attending Betty …
The North Avenue Irregulars movie
This 1979 Disney movie, The North Avenue Irregulars, is a real hoot. I didn’t see it initially, but came to it years later when I saw it on cable. I was hooked. Now I watch this movie whenever I can find it on TV, which isn’t …
Dancing At The Blue Iguana movie
Dancing At The Blue Iguana is not going to win any Oscars, but it is still a good movie. Dancing At The Blue Iguana focuses on the lives of four dancers. These dancers are not your ordinary ballet stars, they are topless dancers. The Blue Iguana is not your …
“Color Me Blood Red” (1965 Film)
During the early to mid ’60s, renowned horror film writer/director Herschell Gordon Lewis created the “splatter” sub-genre of horror. The third installment to a set of three definitive splatter films, known as “The Blood Trilogy”, Color Me Blood Red kept the “blood” theme going strong. After viewing the film, …
The Fugitive
This weekend I watched The Fugitive again and was reminded what a great movie it is. I was skeptical when it was being made. I love the TV series, which is television classic, and I was afraid the theatrical movie would detract from it or parody it …
Memory Movie
Memory has to be the most confusing and convoluted movie I have ever seen. I’ve been a big fan of Billy Zane for a number of years, and I’ve followed his career off and on. Since his role in Titanic, the man hasn’t had a lot of success save …
True Lies
I really liked the movie True Lies, I thought this film was very and it had a good storyline. I really liked the whole secret agent thing, and agents are always pretty exciting. I think the whole storyline about how the agent’s wife was cheating on him is not that …
Disturbia
I just love Shia La Beouf’s movies. This is another one of them. It was released in 2007, under the horror category. However this was more of a thriller than horror.
The story is about a boy Kale(Shia La Beouf) who is under house arrest for punching his Spanish teacher …

Stuck in the Suburbs

The Last King of Scotland (movie)
The Last King of Scotland was possibly the first movie that I had seen the Scottish actor James McAvoy in where I began to take him seriously. I remember that when I first watched it, I didn’t have a clue what it was going to be about and so …

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 …
