Underworld (2003)
When I first picked this movie up, I thought it sounded interesting as it was about a relationship between a vampire and a werewolf (supposedly the two were in love). However it disappointed me almost right away. The opening sequence of this film is nothing but mindless action and …
Summer School
In the year 2000 we have “High School Musical” but in the 80’s they used to have “Summer School”. It seems really funny to compare these two movies with each other because they represent two different generations and two different ways of making teen movie.
In “High School Musical” we …

The Killer Inside me, movie

Why Did I Get Married? (PG-13, 2007)
Tyler Perry is truly one of the underdog success stories in American filmmaking. His stage plays have brought him tons of success. But I am still waiting for him to make a really riveting movie. “Why Did I Get Married?” is full of stars (Janet Jackson, …

In this movie, murder …
Everyone Says I Love You - (starring Drew Barrymore)
I didn’t know that this musical, Everyone Says I Love You was directed by Woody Allen until my friend highlighted it to me. I am not that big a fan for musicals, but at the same time, I don’t prevent from watching it altogether. I think that musical …
Spirited Away animation
“Spirited Away” presents remarkable detail in the way of animation. The creator of the animation is Hiyao Miyazaki. The storyline itself is highly imaginative. Suffice it to say: much goes into proper animation of a movie. During the process sometimes there is a tendency …

Cheeni Kum, movie
Finally somebody had the sense to pair two performers we’ve been dying to see together: Amitabh and Tabu.
And debutant director R Balki proves he’s just the man for the job as he marvelously brews the perfect romantic comedy around an acerbic chef and a classy dame.
As …

Wow. Where to begin with this film. I admit I was a bit nervous about Ben Affleck’s directorial debut, but all of those trepidations were washed away within the first ten minutes of the movie. The story opens with the kidnapping of a little girl and the …
What Lies Beneath (2000)
A ghostly story about a man and his wife and the mistress that was never found after her death so many years before. This is a case of not knowing a person’s past before you actually get involved with them and ultimately meet your demise at the hands of …
The Secret DVD
I’ve studied manifestation for about 15 years and understand basic principles, but The Secret really summed manifestation up. This movie was emotional, funny and introspective. Australian Rhonda Byrne put the movie together after her father died. She read The Science of Getting Rich, which her father left to her. …
Movie : Dance of The Dead
Masters of Horror entry Dance of The Dead is actually one of my favorites. When you read some of the reviews on this it gets roughed up pretty bad but I actually felt it had some good characters, an interesting backstory and a horrific conclusion. I think …

Little Orphan Annie
I had never seen the movie Little Orphan Annie until today; when my wife decided she wanted to watch it again.
I’m not exactly sure why I didn’t want to watch it before. I usually like musicals. It just didn’t sound like it would be a movie I would find …
The Comebacks
I don’t ever remember seeing the movie “The Comebacks” advertising to be released in theatres. In fact, thinking about it now I realized I must have, but at the time I probably thought that it was just one of the many sports movie dramas which were being released at …
Face Off (1997)
I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …

Almost Famous - (starring Kate Hudson)
Almost Famous star Kate Hudson and in this movie story, you see her character being someone extremely ambitious and she wants so much to be famous. This is a time when Rolling Stone is in focus and remember Penny Lane?
Kate Hudson truly sizzles and it’s a story …
Curse of Frankenstein
I have seen almost every Frankenstein movie ever made and have to say, after seeing Curse of Frankenstein, I’m convinced Christopher Lee is the best at playing the classic literary monster (sorry Boris Karloff).
Made in the 1950s, The Curse of Frankenstein actually focuses more on Victor Frankenstein (played by …
Con Air Movie
I’ve seen this movie for many times. The leading actor Nicolas Cage is one of favorite. In this story he was married to a lovely wife who is currently pregnant. I like the story because it showed how much he loved his wife. He accidentally in prison because of …

Looney Toons: Back in Action- the movie
I sometimes enjoy watching children’s movies, especially when they have some wittiness and humor aimed at adults. Looney Toons: Back in Actio was a really fun movie, and appropriate for both children and adults. The movie featured Looney Toons characters such as Yosemite Sam, the Tazmanian Devil, Marvin the …
Wanted
I thought one of the best films of 2008 was the action and adventure film “Wanted”. My brother was determined that he would see it in theatres and he did not stop talking about it for a whole two weeks afterward and encouraging me to see it. However, once …
LAND OF THE DEAD movie
LAND OF THE DEAD
It seemed that George Romero would never make another zombie film. Twenty years had passed since the release and flop of the over-rated DAY OF THE DEAD and nary a new Romero Zombie film was in sight.
Actually, this film was bouncing around in development for a …
Play it Again Sam (1972) Woody Allen
Play it Again Sam is a 1972 movie directed by Herbert Ross, not Woody Allen himself, but it is written by and starring Woody Allen, as the highly neurotic film —˜Alan’. Although he did not direct this film, the humor is wonderfully neurotic Woody Allen at its best. …

Borat film
This movie was overall alright. I enjoyed watching some parts of the movie. Some parts not so much. In some parts it was boring or wasn’t really funny. You could also tell that it was a low budget film. There were a couple of parts that were funny. It’s …
The Day After Tomorrow
This is one timely movie. Global warming is an issue that everybody should be familiar with and something that our world leaders should address. I saw the movie mainly because of Jake Gyllenhaal who I think is one talented and good-looking actor. But I was surprised that I actually …
