Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle
In what could be considered by parents a nightmare of a movie, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle has been, and continues to be one of the most popular comedy movies amongst teens and 20 somethings.
In this film, roommates Harold struggles daily for just one lucky break when …
Futureworld Movie
This is a sequel to Westworld, where human-like androids populating an amusement park had gone wild and began killing the guest. Now, several years later, the creators of the park have re-opened it, claiming that all the issues are taken care of and the park, Futureworld, is perfectly safe. …
Dad Savage movie
The film begins when a car crashes through the floor of a desolate house. Five people find themselves in the basement, but how did they get there and why?
This film is a complete ripoff of Tarantino’s Resvoir Dogs, with the exception that it is set in a different environment, …
Hitch
The other night I was watching the movie Hitch starring Will Smith and I thought I would give my take on this movie. Well I have been a fan of Smith since Fresh Prince and I enjoy many of his action movies. Hitch shows a date doctor whose job …
As young as you feel movie
We had some free time last night so my wife and I decided to watch one of the Marilyn Monroe movies we had on our Netflix Player; As Young As You Feel.
I don’t know if I would really classify this as a Marilyn Monroe movie (she only had a …
Gran Torino
I love Clint Eastwood, both as an actor and as a director in recent years. I was excited when I saw previews of Gran Torino, because it looked like classic Clint-a hard, grumpy, and sarcastic man who is mad at the world. I also knew that since he directed …
Film Back to the Future
One of the funnest comedies from the 1980’s Back to the Future is a very entertaining sci-fi concoction that perfectly cast Michael J. Fox has Marty McFly, an out of time hero.
Living admist your regular chaotic household, with a alcholic mother and a nerdy father, Marty seeks escape through …
Tropic Thunder (R, 2008) movie
I was a little surprised by how much I actually liked this film. I really thought that Robert Downey, Jr. in “black-face” would cause some issues for the director, producer, and actors. But it seems that perhaps people are seeing about this film what I …
Moviez
I think that Shakespeare was the one to say that never a borrower or lender be. This is probably wise advice I have found out myself when I have lent out a few items. They have mainly been movies and the most sorely lost, recently, was Farscape Vol. 1 …
40 Year Old Virgin movie
The 40 Year Old Virgin, in my opinion, is one of the better Apatow related movies. Movies from the Apatow crowd include Anchorman, Superbad, Knocked Up, etc. Back to 40 year Old Virgin, I haven’t laughed this hard during a movie in a long time. Most …
Meet The Robinsons
I don’t know why a super mall near my house make big promotion about this movie together with creativity programs for kids. I didn’t mean a promotion like another movie in big banner but this promotion made in big billboard and with brochure too. Of course I didn’t believe …
Hotel Rwanda (2004)
Hotel Rwanda, directed by Terry George is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America on appeal for violence, disturbing images and brief strong language. The original release date was February 4, 2005 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Drama/History/Thriller/War and stars Don …
27 Dresses
Watching feel good and light story movies does make someone feel better, and often times feel good about themselves. I think 27 Dresses did that to me. Katherine Heigl is wonderful in her role and being the “always” bridesmaids suits her. With all the glamour and stuffs she has …
Into the Blue,movie
Into the Blue
Sony Pictures
Stars: Jessica Alba and Paul Walker
They need to sink this movie. If you are a guy then the constant butt shots of Jessica Alba are plenteous. This movie had a stupid plot, gave in to the stereotypes about lawyers (greedy sharks), and pretty much had me …
Ocean’s 13
I’m not going to lie. I thought Ocean’s 12 was absolutely terrible! Ocean’s 11 was, in my opinion, a very solid movie, that I thoroughly enjoyed. So when the third in line of the sequel was announced, I was a bit skeptical. But, nonetheless, I …
Tootsie Movie
“Tootsie” is a comedy about Michael Dorsey (Dustin Hoffman), a starving actor who is trying to survive on doing odd jobs, teaching acting classes and workshops, etc. No matter how hard he tries and how many auditions he goes to, he cannot get a part - until he transforms …
The Raven (movie)
When I first saw the trailer for the movie “The Raven” I thought that it seemed like it had a lot of potential. I might not have known at the time that the title was the same as a poem written by Edgar Allan Poe a little before he …
My Little Eye
The horror film “My Little Eye” was a film which I thought had a lot of potential to be a very good horror film if it was written better, was filmed better, had better actors and an even better director. Nevertheless, I think the film failed since it was …
West Side Story
Who can forget the wonderful musical, West Side Story? No one that I know. This is Romeo and Juliet brought to us on the streets of New York. It’s vibrant and colorful, and yet it’s just as tragic as the Shakespearean love birds previously mentioned.
Natalie Wood …
Star Wars III-Revenge of the Sith
This installation to the Star Wars Saga was not the worst nor the best. It failed to live up to the hype, it’s somewhat boring, plus the characters are semi-believable. Anakin’s character was poorly portrayed as he just randomly switched to the Darkside without a real reason. General Grievous …
Where The Wild Things Are movie
Where the Wild Things Are was a truly disappointing movie. It was rambling and didn’t seem to have any direction.
I think the problem is that it’s an adaptation of a picture book. It would have worked better as possibly a thirty minute animated film. …
Batman Begins
Batman Begins is the second best comic book movie ever made; surpassed only by its sequel, The Dark Knight. This is a bold statement to make considering how many comic movies that have been made including all the Spider-Mans, Fantastic Four, and the older Batman movies. I …
Ted (2012 movie)
Ted is one of the best movies that I’ve seen this year. It’s funny, the writing is great, and the actors are extremely witty. Believe me when I say it is not what you will expect, because it wasn’t what I expected to see. Seth Macfarlane shines all the …
It Follows, horror movie
Within the last few years the genre of “Horror” for me seems to repeat the same mundane patterns of predictability and flatness. However, “It follows” is a gripping and tense horror flick that will leave you shaken, yet wanting more.
With barely anytime to get comfy, director (David Robert Mitchell) has …
Haunted Gainsborough
I am reviewing The Case of the Haunted Gainsborough, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

Blood: The Lat Vampire is an anime movie from Japan about a girl named Saya who battles evil vampires who hunt people at night on the American Yokota Air Base in Pre-Vietnam War Japan. She goes undercover as a high school student to search for vampires and ends …
A Clockwork Orange movie
Written by Anthony Burgess in 1962, the film came out in 1971 and was directed by the late Stanley Kubrick, my personal favorite. With stunning visuals shot from all angles, Kubrick managed to take this story to a higher level. The book and the movie, however, have entirely different endings.
I …

A career driven woman whose life is very hectic soon loses all that she holds dear when she inherits a baby that was left from a deceased cousin of hers, the entrance of the little bundle of joy turned her world upside down as the lifestyle that she has …
Shrek 2 movie
I’ve just finished watching Shrek 2 for the first time - yes, I know, took me a while to get to it. Especially since I enjoyed Shrek 1 and looked forward to see the sequel.
Overall, I was not disappointed. The movie has the same refreshing humor with non-traditional twists …

The Perfect Stranger Movie
This movie has a very low rating on imdb.com but I say so otherwise and I think this is a great suspense and thriller movie. It had me thinking until the very end and there’s a twisted ending that’s nice too and although I had always been thinking that …

This was the movie that had won Nicole Kidman an oscar and it’s a very nice movie. The cast is Nicole Kidman as Ada Monroe, Jude Law as Inman, Renee Zellweger as Ruby Thewes, Natalie Portman as Sara, Cillian Murphy as Bardolph, and Giovanni Ribisi as Junior.
The movie is …

White House Down (2013 Film)
White House Down is a 2013 movie that I decided to watch after my sister recommended it to me. I remember seeing the film previews during the evening time on TV, but in the back of my mind I was thinking that it just another president doom’s day movie …

“Easy A” (2010 Film)
The 2010 comedy, “Easy A” was a teenage centered comedy that reflected some of the problems seen in the “Scarlet Letter”. While some of the problems faced by the chatacters in this film are very exagerated, the principle and message behind them are none the less impacting.
Emma Stone (from …
License To Drive (1988)
When I was a teenager back in the eighties, I thought the “Two Coreys” (Corey Feldman and Corey Haim) were the funniest guys around. I have seen every one of their movies, and still watch them to this day. One of the funniest movies of the ’80s, and just …
Chalk
I am reviewing the movie, Chalk. This is a mockumentary about teachers. This movie follows around a history teacher, a PE teacher, and a group of others. It focuses on the challenges of the classroom, dealing with disipline and kids. Issues about classroom behavior, ethics, testing, …
Stolen Life (2005)
If you think there is always a second chance in life, you may reconsider your optimism after watching this movie. I definitely did. Second chance seems to be a privilege granted not to every society, and losing the right to it before even turning eighteen seems to be unjustified …
Double Jeopardy
I am reviewing the movie, Double Jeopardy, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Ashley Judd. Ashely Judd’s character seems to have the perfect marriage. One night, however, she awakes to find blood all over her yaught and her husband missing. It is assumed that her husband has been …
Enchanted (Movie)
This movie was hilarious. It features a modern fairy tale story set in the present time and what I like about it most is that the famous and cool James Marsden (Cyclops in X-Men) is actually such a romantic prince here and he does a very great job at …
Salam-E-Ishq Sensible Movie
Salam-E-Ishq is a nicely directed movie by Nikhil Advani. Movie depicts the life of six couples through different perspectives. The star cast of movie is great. Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, John Abraham, Govinda, Aksahy Khanna and Sohel Khan; everyone was put into the appropriate roles by the director. I …
FIRST WIVES CLUB,movie
There are more ways than one to skin a cat…….or to affect the life of a husband who has hurt you! If you are dealing with Goldie Hawn, Bette Middler, and Dinae Keaton, who are having pity parties for themselves, as the movie begins…….pity parties that only hilarious …
Pirates 3
After waiting for one long year, the third (and last?) part of the Pirates of the Carribean trilogy finally arrived. My daughter and I both attended an opening night show. We thought it was great! The effects, as was the case in the first two movies, …
Mirrors movie
I’m not a huge Keifer Sutherland fan so I wasn’t sure what to expect when my wife brought home the horror film Mirrors this past weekend.
Actually, to be fair, my doubts really had little to do with Sutherland. I just figured, reading the package, this was going to be …
Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
This movie could be looked at in one of two ways: a take on David and Goliath, or the traditional bully theme. Either way, it is a pleasant comedy with several delightful characters and oddities. It involves a hostile takeover attempt by Goliath Globo Gym owner White Goodman (Ben …
Race to Witch Mountain movie
This 2009 theatrical release reinvents the story told in Disney’s Escape to Witch Mountain that captivated a younger generation back in 1975. This is the 5th version of the movie which has a science fiction theme surrounding children and a mysterious mountain. There are some updated elements …
