All About Eve film
Bette Davis, as she became more mature possessed knowing character traits with a rustic edge incorporated. She was really never the innocent young girl type. I would say she fit more the role of a person who knew how to survive life. She was always the …
Return To Me
The movie “Return to Me” can be easy described as a ‘mission impossible’ attempt for three persons the director Bonny Hunt and the two main actors, David Duchovny and Minnie Driver. For Bonny Hunt, who is much more known as an actress, this is the first movie …
Twins movie
When it comes to action movies, there are none better than Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, when it comes to comedies, there are few worse.
The movie Twins is probably Schwarzenegger’s best attempt and, while there are some funny scenes, it really isn’t all that great.
He and Danny Devito play twin brothers …

Cop Out movie
Cop Out is a movie which falls flat and a passable fare which trenches into deep falls scene by scene. When Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan share the screen for a police comedy, the expectations were to see a rollicking comedy and gags of laugh. But unfortunately Cop Out …

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This movie is set in the fifties. The ending is really surprising although the rest of the movie follows along just as you would expect you to. I thought the predictability of the movie was a real drag. It’s like I could have written the script …

Angel In the Outfield (1996)
I love Disney movies. Its a relatively sad and often laughed at indulgence that I have. I particularly like it when they turn out a movie that makes me feel inspired and warm inside.
I think that one of my favorite movies of all time has to be Angels …
The Back Up Plan Movie (2010)
This is a hilarious movie that most ladies if not all should watch! This movie is all about a girl (Jennifer Lopez) quitting the dating scene and decides she just wants a baby, thus going to a clinic and having in-vitro done on her, she now is pregnant but …
Millennium movie
From 1989, this science fiction movie speaks to me for some reason, and I really don’t know why. There’s just something about it that makes me want to watch it, over and over again … and I do.
Millennium stars Kris Kristofferson as Bill Smith, who as a young …
Autopsy: Postmortem with Dr. Michael Baden (UR, 2008)

The New Daughters of Joshua Cabe movie
This is the third Joshua Cabe movie and it’s the third set of daughters. The original casting was the best. You just can’t beat the combination of Buddy Ebsen, Karen Valentine, Lesley Ann Warren, and Sandra Dee. There’s a lot of talent there. When Cabe’s …

Meet the Spartans DVD
I recently borrowed the DVD of the movie “Meet the Spartans” from a friend and watched it with my family. I must say this has to be the second movie after “You Don’t Mess with Zohan” which I would consider as a crappy movie.
The movie was first released …
The Reaping movie
Starring: Hilary Swank (Katherine Winter), David Morrissey (Doug), Idris Elba (Ben), Anna Sophia Robb (Loren McConnell)
Whew the biblical 10 plagues shown in color can be rather overwhelming after all this while, it has only been images in our minds from the written word.
Katherine Winter, …

Firehouse movie
This review is for a movie called Firehouse, which is not to be confused with Richard Dean Anderson’s Firehouse movie of 25 years later. However, whereas in 1997 it was women having to deal with being accepted, in this 1973 version, it’s African Americans struggling to break in …
The 2003 Vampire Movie Alucard
I am yet to recall ever seeing a movie such as Alucard which screamed low budget. I never did watch it in the theatre, and for that I am indeed thankful; however, I did borrow a DVD from a friend to watch what I thought might turn out to …

Bedtime Stories movie
I recently bought the DVD for the movie and watched it together with my family. In my opinion, the story is quite similar to another movie by the name of Inkheart but this one is more suitable for children due to its story and approach.
The movie’s main character is …
V for Vendetta (2005)
V for Vendetta (2005)
Director: James McTeigue. Featuring: Natalie Portman, Hugo Weaving and John Hurt.
In my eyes, the movie stands somewhere between greatness and boredom, all depends on how you like your movies. It is told in a non realistic, graphic novel style. The heroes are symbolic and …
Movie : Dance of The Dead
Masters of Horror entry Dance of The Dead is actually one of my favorites. When you read some of the reviews on this it gets roughed up pretty bad but I actually felt it had some good characters, an interesting backstory and a horrific conclusion. I think …
Kick-Ass Movie
Kick-Ass is a comic-book superhero movie about a guy who ask himself “why nobody has ever tried to be a superhero?” like the ones on comic-books. Kick-Ass is based in a comic by Mark Millar and I think this is one of the best comic-book movies ever. As a …

One of the movies that I watched recently was an action and adventure movie called “The Green Hornet” that starred the actor Seth Rogen, and an Asian actor who did not seem familiar to me. When I first saw the movie trailer on youtube earlier on this …
Erin Brokovich Movie
I saw this movie twice and was very impressed by Julia Roberts’ acting. She isn’t one of my favorites, which I don’t think is her fault. Since ‘Pretty Woman’ she has been a bit typecast. Most movies I’ve seen her in have been very light and …

Tron Legacy movie
Tron Legacy is probably the best 3D movie I have ever seen. The graphics and the images were just awesome in this movie. But even in regular HD this movie truly does rock. If you are watching it on a home system I recommend watching it with huge speakers. You’re …
The Net Movie
This movie offers a rather scary scenario of having your identity controlled - erased and replaced, in fact - by someone else, with the help of the modern-day technology. Angela Bennett (Sandra Bullock), a computer expert, comes into possession of a floppy disk with some valuable and secret info. …
Red Dawn (1984)
There is some controversy about this movie and the date it was released, to the effect that it was the very first movie to have a Motion Picture Association rating of PG-13 due to the excessive violence that the movie offered. Now I say to you my good viewing …

Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind film
How the story unfolded was quite interesting. It’s a beautifully woven tale of two souls who, after having been separated by science, still manage to find each other again, because of a force far greater than any form of futuristic technology — love.
I enjoyed the cast of characters of …
Baise Moi (movie)
“Baise Moi” is a French movie I watched with English subtitles after a friend recommended it to me. I’d rather not reveal what the title translates to in English here, since it would be extremely inappropriate, however, if the curiosity is too great one can simply go to Google …

Planet of the Apes
I was watching the film Planet of the Apes on TV the other day and have to say, considering when the movie was made, it is still one of the better science fiction tales you will come across.
There are two reasons I feel this way. One is the make …
