Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban
This is a busy movie. So much hinges on it. I think this movie hinged, moving away from a pure children’s film to a more teen or older movie. The themes and atmosphere gained maturity, right alongside the characters.

The movie Anthony Kaun Hai released on 4th of August, 2006. The meaning if the title of the film is Who Is Anthony in English. The movie has been directed by Raj Kaushal. It is a pretty stupid and complicating film. The lead actors of the film are Sanjay …

National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
I’m not sure about most people, but my holiday season isn’t complete without watching National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

The second movie in the crossover film series once again pits Alien against Predator in a sequel that doesn’t deliver.

One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …
Michael Jackson’s This is It movie 2009

Movie 2001 Maniacs
I thought this movie was so weird, so gross, and so disturbing. And yet, I couldn’t stop watching it.

Movie: Haunting of Winchester House

Based on the life of Alexander the Great, the movie focuses a bit too much on the guy who conquered the known world and not enough on …
Life is Beautiful movie
This review does not have a summary. This movie was one of the best holocaust movies I have seen in a long time. When I saw this movie, it was all in Italian, which is for the most part the only downside to it. Although, the script in …
The Mark of Zorro (1940)
Filmgoers today associate “Zorro” with Antonio Banderas but, as wonderful as Banderas is in the title role of the more updated version of this film, he can’t hold a candle to the original “Mark of Zorro” star Tyrone Power, who is just magnificent in this movie.
Power was at the …

Memoirs of a Geisha
Another Cinderella story with a cultural relevance is Memoirs of a Geisha, a movie adaptation of Arthur Golden’s best selling novel. If there is anyone who is into cultural immersion and intense drama, then I recommend this movie.
The movie follows the story of Chiyo (Suzuka Ohgo), a young girl …
Black or White (drama movie)
For me the actor Kevin Costner’s name has become synonymous with watching certain kinds of films. Thus I consider him one of the more “serious” popular actors. Therefore, I found it interesting an refreshing to see that he was doing something a little different when I saw the trailer for …
