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 …

Network movie
What a deeply prophetic and darkly funny film this is. The performances from Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway and William Holden are absolute perfection, and Sidney Lumet’s directing is brilliant as well, but the screenplay by Paddy Chayefsky is the true diamond of this movie. It is shockingly …

The thing I …
Movie: Tremors 3
I finally got a chance to sit down and relax about 8 last night and, while flipping channels, came across a movie I haven’t seen in a while; Tremors 3.
This movie, which is of course, the third movie in the Tremors series, isn’t anywhere near as good as the …
DreamGirls (2006 Movie)
I recently saw this movie and loved it. The acting and musical talent was awesome. I already knew that Beyonce` could sing wonderfully but was pleasantly surprised to know that Eddie Murphy could also. There were so many instances that that I laughed and cried. Seeing this movie made …
Film A Good Year
A Good Year is a real feel good film, just like the title suggests. Russell Crow plays the lead and I actually like him in this film. He does a great English accent and plays a hard hearted, workaholic, money hungry city trader to perfection. His character doesn’t seem …

The Happening
When I saw previews to the movie The Happening, I suspected it would be a film that would start out scary but would have a twist that would manage to ruin it.
After watching it last night, I found I was 100 percent correct.
While I liked the idea of a …

Last night was probably the 10th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say I enjoyed it as much as I did first time I saw it.

The Final Destination 3D
I did not like this movie. This is the first 3D movie I have seen in years and I regret going to it. This movie is horrible compared to all the others. I had expected more.
The move started out ok. Just like all the others, there’s someone that ends …
All About Steve
I enjoy Sandra Bullock movies, because they are generally lighthearted, feel-good romps which also teach a lesson, however cliché, about human nature and kindness. Although she has recently begun to choose roles a little more serious and substantial than her usual romantic comedies, I knew All About Steve would …
Cloverfield movie
Cloverfield through advertising it brought up a lot of wonder of what the hell the film was about. Watching the film was quite hard, because of the use of one camera its hard to fit in cuts, they did a great job of this putting in cuts whenever falling …

‘Mona Lisa Smile’ is one of those unescapable feel-good movies that induce the viewer into a reverie of real world idealism. The everlasting quest of man for the template of an ideal mate for life is presented through the conservative faces of the movie.
The movie is set in an …

I really get the wrong idea when I first watch Bug. I thought it is some kind of a horror movie or something, but when in the end I realized that this story is something like the genre of ‘art movie’, displaying about life, people and their characters, …
The Contract movie
This movie was very interesting and exciting. It was a little bit long though but it kept me interested in it. It started off very nicely and went straight into the movie. It was towards the middle and end that I felt it dragged on a little bit. It …
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.

“Eyes Wide Shut” (1999 film)
Occupying the position of the iconic Stanley Kubrick’s final directorial effort, completed just days before his passing, ANY movie would be the center of a lot of divided opinions and the source of controversy. After all, those qualities apply to just about every one of the movies in Kubrick’s …

The September Issue (2009)
‘The September Issue’ is a feature length, fly-on-the-wall documentary about the making of the September 2007 issue of Vogue Magazine. This would be of interest to anyone wanting to see what the real Anna Wintour is like - editor-in-chief of Vogue - rather than the bitch that Meryl …
And The Little Dog Laughed - Garrick Theatre
And I laughed too. A lot.
This a surprising, fun, funny, touching play. It is a bitingly satirical look at Hollywood stardom. That makes it sound somehow predictable and dull - but I assure you it is far better than the synopsis.
It stars Rupert Friend as Mitchell, a Hollywood actor …
Ace of Sales (Taiwan Movie)
Aces of Sales is a Taiwanese drama comedy directed by Cho Li.

Bones
As there are no famous actors in this series, I believe that the writers are the true stars. The cast is well chosen and work well together, but I feel that the complex, intriguing story lines are the factors that make this show a winner.
The …
Pinnochio movie
The movie ‘Pinnochio’ made me feel really disappointed. Roberto Benigni’s Life is Beautiful has been my all time favorite. I watched Pinnochio hoping that it would be as good as Life is Beautiful but I was utterly disappointed. Not in comparison with Life is Beautiful but the movie Pinnochio …
