First off, I am a BIG Jerry Bruckheimer fan and am always excited to see one of his movies. HOWEVER, not even the Jerry Bruckheimer name can save the mess of a movie that is Pearl Harbor. The first hour or so of the movie contains some …
Johnny English (2003)
Rowan Atkinson’s reputation as a comedy actor is still as good as ever. What I can say about this movie is that it’s got good casting. They got John Malkovich on board. His French accented English is ridiculous but I think that’s more like it when …

You don’t mess with the zohan
Whenever Adam Sandler makes a movie, you really never know what you’re going to get. He’s had some film classics like The Wedding Singer, Big Daddy and Happy Gilmore. Then, he’s had movies like You Don’t Mess with the Zohan, that are so terrible, you can’t get through a …

Masters of Horror: Dance of the Dead (movie)
I got hooked on the Masters of Horror series of films when I ordered “Jenifer” from Netflix. I was intrigued by the amount of gore and the uncensored approach to many adult topics. This film, however, directed by Tobe Hooper left so much to be …
Love Me or Leave Me movie
This picture, Love Me or Leave Me, is one of Doris Day’s most dramatic roles, and she soars in it. It’s a bit of a dark picture as the movie attempts to tell an account of singer Ruth Etting’s life. Etting was quite successful but also dealt …

As I’m sure all you Harry Potter fans know, in the fourth movie, there was a dance called the ‘Yule Ball’.
Now, I read about this in the book, but I never imagined that everything would be so pretty!

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (Movie)
I had heard and read a lot about The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus before I watched in on DVD yesterday. I have followed the director Terry Gilliam’s career from his Monty Python days, and have very much admired his somewhat strange and eccentric art and movies. I had also …
Swing Hostess movie
Swing Hostess, a 1944 musical film, felt very much like a predecessor to Singing in the Rain to me. I thought of that almost all the way through, although it wasn’t the same story exactly.
One of the things I really liked about his movie was seeing how the …
Click movie
This is one of Adam Sandler’s movie that made me cry. At first it was a little boring since it started with Adam being a workaholic guy for the benefit of his family who is a little piss off because there were different remote control for every house hold …
Bells Are Ringing movie
I only saw Bells Are Ringing for the first time in this decade. I’d always heard about it when people talked about the great Judy Holliday since this was her most identifiable film legacy. Finally, I had a chance to see it and judge for myself whether …
Shrek The Third, Chris Miller, Raman Hui Movie
It is the obligation of a son to replace the task father in law as King when King Harold hospital. Not like, Shrek I feel it is not suitable to become King of Far Far And Away. Understandably, although already a member of the kingdom, many prefer to take …

Interview with a Vampire

Scooby Doo on Zombie Island
I’m not normally a fan of Scooby Doo movies that don’t follow the classic format of the ghost really being someone in disguise. But, I will say I did like Scooby Doo on Zombie Island.
This movie, which has Scooby and the gang investigating a haunting on a Louisiana Island …
Vampire in Brooklyn Movie
When I saw that it was an Eddie Murphy movie, I expected good comedy, perhaps something like Mel Brooks’ “Dracula: Dead and Loving It” with Leslie Nielsen, a funny twist of a classic. Well, I was wrong. Apparently, the creators of “Vampire in Brooklyn” meant it to be for …
Movie Because I Said So
I was very reluctant to watch the movie “Because I said So”. That’s not because I’m not a fan of Diane Keaton or Mandy Moore. It’s because most romantic comedies have the same basic plot and I knew this one wouldn’t be any different.
And, I was right. However, after …
Horror Express movie
I was digging through our movie cabinet a couple days ago (trying to find my daughter’s missing Nintendo DS) when I came across the movie Horror Express.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer DVDs
I adore Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There’s enough ‘people’ drama and ’supernatural’ drama all rolled into one. The comedy makes it easy to watch. You get really involved in the characters. I love the way the product is packaged. I haven’t fully explored the special features options but they …
North & South movie
Ah (Sigh!), North & South. One of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. That would actually be saying a lot considering that first, I haven’t seen one (a beautiful movie, that is) in such a long time; and second, I rarely dub a movie as beautiful if …
Con Air (1997)
I cannot explain how much I love Con Air. Starring Nicholas Cage and John Cusack, Con Air is one great movie. It is about a man named Poe (played by Cage) who is falsely accused of killing someone when it was self defense. Years later, he is out on …
Club Paradise movie
There are some comedies out there that will invest in well-known actors and actresses to sell the movie only to wind up being a disappointment when they aren’t talented enough to sell a weak script.
This was the case with the movie Club Paradise.
To be fair, Robin Williams has never …
Shrek the Third
I watched Shrek and Shrek 2 in DVDs, but for Shrek 3, I deservingly thinks that it’s worthwhile to watch in a movie theatre. So, the ones who watched were me, my boyfriend and my 2 brothers. My sister wasn’t interested, so she did not come.
The movie …

I used Netflix for 2 years. I started the free trial and ended up keeping the service. I loved the convenience of not spending gas to drive to the video store and spending a considerable amount of time picking out a good movie to watch. I especially liked that …

I Know What You Did Last Summer

Rush Hour 3
Rush Hour 3 was everything I had hoped for after seeing Rush Hour 1 & 2. The second sequel was filled with action and humor, and follows a plot that will keep one interested the whole way through.
The movie focuses on the reserved Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan), who is …
“Ernest Scared Stupid” (1991 Film)
Many people are familiar with the Ernest films. Each of them are themed differently but revolve around a loveable and child-like man who can be clumsy at times but becomes everyone’s friend and sometimes hero by the time the film is over. Not to mention he makes me laugh …
