Paycheck (starring Ben Affleck)
If you guys have watched Paycheck (starring Ben Affleck) before, you will be surprised to know that it is a very good movie, but with a science-fiction genre. I really categorize this movie as fiction because I can never imagine this movie to be other than that at all. …
Once Upon a Time in Mexico movie
Robert Rodriguez returns with a sequel to his classic low budget film El Mariachi, but unfortunately this time without the same energetic visual style. The story is a very complex thing with corrupt CIA agents, drug dealers and assassins, but that is not what bothers me. Rodriguez have proved …
Twilight
Before the movie Twilight came into theaters, I heard many preposterous comments about this movie. I even heard these brutal comments about the book, from whom most did not even read. Before I started my grasp on the Twilight Saga, I was confidental about not reading them, knowing what …

Baby Einstein movie
I’m not sure who came up with the Baby Einstein series on DVD but I am very glad that they did. These videos are a god-send for parents of toddlers everywhere.
My 2-year-old will watch movies but, like most kids her age, doesn’t sit too long before she’s moving on …
The Happening movie
I am a huge fan of M, Knight Shyamalan movies, and there’s never been a one that I didn’t like for one reason or another. Even if I didn’t like the whole movie, there were at least parts of the creative process I could appreciate. In The Happening, his …

Jerry Maguire
My family enjoys watching movies, we own a lot of DVD’s and we like Tom Cruise as an actor. We put in the movie Jerry Maguire (1996)the other evening to watch it.
Tom Cruise plays a busy sports agent in the film, who is about to be …
Machete (2010 film)
I want to preface this review by saying that this is one of my favorite movies because it embraces what it is. It is an action movie that focuses primarily on the action. This is the type of movie that you watch solely for entertainment value. It is not …

Devil in a Blue Dress movie
A thriller in an 1940s environment where Denzel Washington plays a freelancing detective with a constant bad luck.
An interesting film stylistically as it recreates the moods of old noir films in color. Compared to LA Confidential, which is similar too this one but in black and white, Devil in …
Fearless, Jet Li’s movie
“Fearless” is going to be the last movie for Jet Li. He and his family will be going back to China and retired. I have hears much about Jackie Chen’s action, but if someone have watched Jet Li in action he/she will see the differences between the two martial …
The Ugly Truth movie
I absolutely loved this movie. I saw previews for it and thought “it looks alright.. I guess I’ll see it because i want to go to the movies.” So I went to see it and it was so funny. It was better than I had expected. The previews don’t …
House Of Voices
Speaking of horror and haunting movies, this one title, House Of Voices sits in the list of mine as being pretty boring and bland. I’ve watched it with my friends and if I’m not mistaken, this movie was before 2005 or 2006.
The story is about this particular woman who …
Pirates Of The Caribbean III: At World’s End
Pirates Of The Caribbean III: At World’s End continues the story of Jack Sparrow, William Turner, Elizabeth Swan, and Captain Barbosa as the plot centers around the conflict between pirates and The East India Trading Company who is trying to destroy piracy, with the aid of Davy Jones. I …
Only God Forgives, movie (2013)

Paris Je T’aime
I love watching Paris Je T’aime so much that I have watched it for over 2 times. This is a special case movie, and it features about 20 directors to create a 5 minute film about Paris. That is great, I get to see 20 different stories …
Josie and the Pussy Cats (2001)
This movie is about a group of girls who came together to form a musical band. Similar to most movies that sport the music theme, this one is no different, I mean, you’ve seen one movie about music bands, you’ve seen them all. There are basically no real differences …

Meet The Parents (Film)
Meet The Parents is a comedy starring Ben Stiller which focuses on the basic story of a boyfriend meeting his girlfriend’s parents for the first time in a weekend stay. I’ll add that this isn’t the typical weekend stay, as everything that can go wrong, basically does go wrong. …
Brave Heart movie
This is the fourth year when I first saw the movie ‘Brave Heart’. Since then I have seen this for innumerable times. My favorite Mel Gibson is in lead role and as usual he shows his strong caliber in this movie.
Winning some Oscars will not suffice to say all …
Foamy the Squirrel
The premise of the Foamy cartoons may sound bizarre. A ranting cartoon squirrel that lives with a feminist goth chick? I must be kidding, I can’t possibly find this entertaining. But I do, the Foamy cartoons are the funniest cartoons on the internet, in my opinion anyway.
Sure, some cartoons …
The Changeling movie
“The Changeling,” starring the brilliant George C. Scott, is a ghost story filmed in the 1980s, and the scariest one despite its age. Unlike many contemporary horror movies that rely on blood and gore, “The Changeling” uses more subtle ways, which work much better. The creators of this movie …
Daredevil movie
“Daredevil” is a 2003 movie starring Ben Affleck as Daredevil, The Man Without Fear. Daredevil is my all-time favorite Marvel Comics superhero, and I watched this movie the first time with high hopes. My high hopes were dashed by the first viewing, but I probably still like …
Body of Lies (movie)
Starring the two talented actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Russel Crowe, the movie “Body of Lies” was nowhere near disappointing. It is one of the most thrilling, tense and suspenseful movies I’ve seen about espionage in a long time, and I would truly encourage those who have an interest in these …
Baby snatcher
I watched this movie on lifetime move network today. Overall it was pretty good. The actors were really good in it, and they had more than one actor that was good. A lot of times in the life time movie networks there are only one good actor in the …
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 …
Charlie’s Angels
I must give credit to Drew Barrymore for bringing to the big screen “Charlie’s Angels” with the girls not using firearms but instead using martial arts to defend themselves. The angels Barrymore, Lucy Liu and Cameron Diaz had to undergo 3 months martial arts training …
Movie Review: The Ladykillers (2004)
I have just rented “The Ladykillers” 2004, starring Tom Hanks, from our local library and we’ve had a fun evening watching this hilarious comedy. However, I could do with less profanity; hearing the f-word all throughout the movie was rather annoying.
The story is about a gang of criminals lead …
The Dark Knight Rises film
The Dark Knight Rises is a good film! A really good film! Sure, there are a few problems with it but nothing there that really ruins this masterpiece!
The only thing you need to be aware of is that there is less Batman than in the Dark Knight because it …
Movie Willow (1988)
Since my daughter was very young, she and I have enjoyed watching many fantasy movies over the years. One of our favorites has always been Ron Howard’s “Willow.” The talented Val Kilmer is absolutely fantastic as Madmartigan, a great swordsman who has a tendency to only look out for …

Popular casts : Hugh Jackman, Rachel Weisz
There are two main reasons that make me watch this movie, those are:
1. There are Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman

I am Totally Dissapointed.
This is about three parts of love, with the same couple but different times …

Airheads
I love any type of movies starring Brendan Fraser! He rocks truly, and Airheads is one of those movies that made me butt-crack laughing with bit of tears in my eyes.
The trio, or rather called Airheads were really funny and they gave a loud and seemingly clever …
GroundHog Day
Aw, this is an older movie but I think that the whole family would enjoy it. It has Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell. It’s about a guy who keeps waking up and living the same day over and over again. Talk about a drag ! But Bill Murray does …
Vacation (2015 Comedy Adventure Movie)
If you’re like me and you loved many of the National Lampoon movies, you were probably very eager to watch the 2015 movie “Vacation”. The thing about the movie is that it was the fifth in the list of National Lampoon’s Vacation series and it is supposed to be a …
Feed (NR, 2005) movie
If you are looking for a film that is slightly off the beaten path, you should watch “Feed.” But don’t expect riveting acting or plot direction. For there is none. This isn’t a terrible film. In fact, in a lot of ways it is quite …
Moon Child movie

Movie: The Best Years of our Lives
I had never heard of the movie The Best Years of our Lives until this past weekend, when I discovered it as part of a Memorial Day marathon. At first, I didn’t know what I was watching. But, it ended up being a halfway decent movie.
Unlike a lot of …
She’s The Man comedy
This is one of my favorite comedies. There are a lot of funny parts in it. It is more of a girls movie but I know a couple of guys who enjoyed the movie. It was a great comedy movie. There are a couple of parts where Amanda Bynes …

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008 Movie)
Though I’m not usually one for war-based dramas, this movie grabbed hold of my heart and broke it in two with one of the saddest endings I’ve seen in a long time. The story is simple; A young boy, Bruno, is forced to move from his peaceful home full …
Throw Mama from the Train (1987)
One of my favorite VHS tapes (yes, I am over 50 and therefore behind the times) is “Throw Mama from the Train”. Despite the horrid title, this really is a good adult movie. In fact, I might even go out and buy it on DVD, since tapes …
