Bobbys World cartoon
Bobby’s World was always one of my favorite Saturday morning cartoons. I thought she show was really cute and funny. Bobby is so funny and cool. He has many wacky adventures and fun times.
I think the animation in the show is pretty good. It looks pretty cool but yet it’s …
Attack the Block (movie)
Tonight I decided that I was going to watch the movie “Attack the Block” even though I heard about it roughly a year ago. Back then when I had watched the trailer and seen one or two clips of the movie what I saw just did not impress me …
It Runs in the Family (2003)
The movie is starring Kirk and Michael Douglas, as well as Cameron Douglas. This movie was more of a family reunion for the actors themselves, rather than entertainment or movie of great value. Despite all the publicity and the positive exposure, in my experience, it is one hard-to-watch …
The Emperor’s Club movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Emperor’s Club, which is a movie that is about three years old or so. I am a huge fan of movies that center around professors in an academic setting. I have always had a passion for teaching, but do not think I …

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

I enjoy Pixar movies very much, and Cars is no exception. This computer-generated animated movie features the voices of Owen Wilson, Bonnie Hunt, Michael Keaton and others. Like many Pixar movies, the story takes place in an alternate world, a world where cars, not humans, rule …

Date with an Angel
I can remember watching this movie a couple years ago one Saturday when there was absolutely nothing interesting going on on television. I had seen it on the television guide and there was no summary so I didn’t know what it would be about, but nevertheless, decided to try …
Silkwood movie
1983’s Silkwood is a powerful story. It’s also a true story which makes it tremendously poignant and meaningful. It’s also a story with an uncertain ending, even to this day.
This is the story of Karen Silkwood, a young woman who worked at a nuclear plant and realized …
Uncle Buck (1989) movie
Directed by John Hughes, and starring John Candy, this was one of the best movies of the 80s. Uncle Buck was a funny, charming and sometimes witty comedy. It was in the middle of a long string of John Hughes movies that were good and also …

Penelope (movie)
One of the first movies that I remember recognising the actor James McAvoy in was Penelope, which was released in 2006. He’s one of those actors whose movies I will always take a chance with , and that was one of the main reasons why I even decided to …

Battle, Los Angeles 2011 Movie
From the point of view of its genre and style this movie is a rather unique breed. It is a kind of hybrid, a combination of things and elements which are not very often combined, with a special emphasis of its own. This movie deals with an alien invasion …
Enter The Dragon Classic Marshial Arts Movie Starring Bruce Lee
As time goes by and the inevitable process of growing up takes its course, certain things that I used to love back when I was smaller seem quite stupid now, especially some of the things I enjoyed like movies and television shows. The acting seems really bad, along with …
The Family Man movie

Artic Tale (2007)
This is a wonderful animal movie for both children and adults. I guess you could say it is a true story as nature photographers filmed it up in the artic (the animals are not trained acting animals - they are the real thing). Words were added to the picture …
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 …
“Howl’s Moving Casle” (2004 Film)

Movie V for Vendetta
This movie was a tough one. It is at times confusing, at times preachy, and at times extremely disturbing, but I am glad that I stuck it out and I would reccommend that you do the same.
This film is of the genre of apocolyptic futures: it portrays where …
Ghost Ship Movie
Ghost Ship is a horror movie that I really love, even though the movie itself isn’t really that scary. The first time I saw it was when it was playing in the theater, and I’ve had the chance to see it a few more times since then. Every time …
Dedication Movie
In must admit that I really enjoy watching Mandy Moore’s movie; however “Dedication” failed to impress me. Even though the great actors, Diane Wiest and Tom Wilkinson give a lot to this movie, ultimately I found it a boring romantic comedy. It seems that I am not the only …
No Country For Old Men
This is the first movie, in my opinion, since the Lord of the Rings Trilogy that will remain a classic for decades to come. There are not enough superlatives to describe this movie. Everything, EVERYTHING, is flawless in my eyes. The acting in unreal. The …
Mr. Deeds
My sisters bought me some movies for Christmas. One of the movies was Mr. Deeds. I hadn’t seen the whole movie all the way through so I decided to watch it. It was actually better than I thought. For some reason I thought that the movie was stupid but …
Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
One of the most classic motion picture musicals is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, a 1953 release that stars the unforgettable Marilyn Monroe. The blonde was the sensation of her day, and this movie is the equivalent to her theme song. Of course, it contains the song that is …
The Legend of Zorro 2005 (movie)
As someone who loved the original, The Legend of Zorro was a hugely disappointing sequel. The scenery was still beautiful and I still liked the main actors, and the humor still made me laugh, but the magic was lost. The dignity of the first was abandoned in …
Mr. Nobody, movie
This movie follows the life and stories of Nemo Nobody, played by Jared Leto. The visuals and story telling in this movie is some of the best I have ever seen, not to mention the music used at many points in the film fit perfectly with the scenes they are …

Hide and Seek (2005 movie)
I don’t really get the gist of this movie, it’s one of those films that just doesn’t make any sense. From the beginning, things just didn’t add-up, people were dying…claimed to be killed by the little girl’s imaginary friend. One would not begin the believe that the killer was …
House of Wax
Starring: Elisha Cuthbert (Carly), Paris Hilton (Paige), Chad Michael Murray (Nick), Jared Padalecki (Wade) Brian Van Holt (Bo/Vincent)
This is categorized as a horror show; however I was not terrified; instead I was more taken with the lifelike wax sculptures and the way they were created.
The story started with …
Turistas
What a horrifying situation, to be stranded in a foreign country, and caught up in the schemes of dealers of death. The premise of Turistas (Spanish for tourists) is straightforward. A group of tourists, fresh from a bus accident, find a beach to relax on before walking off to …
Never Been Kissed Movie

I have just watched the film Coraline and I must say it was quite charming. If you have seen the trailer, this movie may seem as if it is intended for just a younger audience, but that is not the case. While it does a good job at …

I am reviewing the Disney movie, The Great Mouse Detective. I am a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, and so I emensely enjoyed this movie. If you’re a Sherlock fan, you have to check this cute film out. Once again, Disney focuses its main characters on mice. A …
Notes on a Scandal Movie
The fact that only select cinemas screened this movie meant something and when I saw that it was a European movie, I knew it was going to be good! I kind of knew what to expect: lengthy dialogues, character-driven plots, and a very unique story.

Life of Pi (movie)

Nightmare Before Christmas
It’s baaaaack! Tim Burton’s classic movie The Nightmare Before Christmas is back, better than ever- and now in 3-D!
