Please don’t watch this film. Listen to the radio series, read the books, or watch the BBC television series as a far more worthy introduction to Douglas Adams. Alternatively, watch paint dry.
There are a few good things about the film. The visioning of things like the Heart of Gold …

Chinese cinema owes a lot to Ang Lee’s breakthrough masterpiece at the Academy Awards. Not only is the first Asian film to gain mass popularity, acclaim and high prestige awards, it was followed by a whole stream of wuxia films that is still running and to be honest none …

I caught this on DVD moments back and it’s basically about a guy trying to get over his ex-girlfriend but having problems with that when he decides to go on a vacation and sees her there with …

I’m normally a Will Smith fan and I think the fact he stars in the movie Wild Wild West is the reason I find myself enjoying it; even when many others think it’s a weak film.
I used to watch the television show with my grandfather so I know quite …

I grew up reading Harry Potter books in my formative years back in the 90’s. The time when the whole Harry Potter franchise was less frenzied and the books were just lurking somewhere to be discovered. My devotion to the books reached a fanatical stage that I …

As a child there were not many animated movies that I really did not like, however there were a few. At the top of the list is Alice In Wonderland. This movie really freaked me out!!! I have only seen it twice and will not watch it again.

Norwegian Wood is the film adaptation of Haruki Murakami’s novel of the same title, directed by Tran Anh Hung and shot in various locations in Japan. It was, I recall, an article about the author in the nytimes —“ a teaser before the release date of …

This show follows a group of smokers from a run of the mill office building in London. Each episode is shown in real time, the thirty minutes we see told continuously. The action never veers away from the smoking room itself, instead characters come and go.
It’s a simple …

Columbo: It’s All in the Game is rather memorable for a couple of reasons. Of course, there’s the great portrayal of the lead character by Peter Falk, but that’s constant throughout the entire history of the series. Rather, the wonder of this specific episode is Faye Dunaway …

From 1968, Speedway combines the talents of Elvis Presley and Nancy Sinatra. Okay, it’s a so-so plot and we’ve seen it a thousand times, and the characters are stereotyped and not particularly that ‘wow-some’. I don’t think there’s any way you can say that either performer had …

Moon is a very interesting and intriguing film that I found to be a very decent watch, if a little confusing at times.
I thought the idea for the back story was quite good, as it’s not something I’ve seen done successfully before. But the plot twists really make it …

An italian horror film that was included in a Dario Argento dvd box I got ahold of recently. The strange thing is that Argento did not direct this, so did another man named Sergio Stivaletti.
The film is set in France in the early 20th century. People are getting killed …

Most people dream of winning the lottery or going on a long vacation? Chris McCandless dreamed of living in the wild and made 100% sure that nothing and no one got in the way from making his dream come true.
“Into the Wild” is a true story of Chris McCandless …

Gone With The Wind is a classic, there is no question about that. It is a well-made and well-acted movie that tells a good story. However, I must say that I find it almost unwatchable at times because I absolutely hate Scarlett O’Hara. Don’t get me wrong: Vivien Leigh …

I was a bit bored last night so I was looking for movies to watch on some of the movie channels we have (we have a free trial going on).
I ended up coming across the movie Rocky.
I have seen this movie quite a few times but I have to …

I was really pleasantly surprised by this film. I watched it on my Virgin on Demand service - I was basically browsing for an easy, fun, romantic comedy and thought this fit the bill from the description.
It’s not just a ‘chick flick’ or your predictable Romcom though.
First off, our …

Okay, 500 Days of Summer was not exactly my choice of a movie. The trailers didn’t look that appealing…but at least they were honest.
The movie was watch-able. I suppose it’s possible to believe that it’s a relationship from a guys point of view, but I really don’t see guys …

If you are looking for a film that will be sure to give you a creepy crawly feeling, be sure to rent Arachnaphobia.
I am not afraid of spiders (nor anything else 1000th of my size) but this movie had me checking my blankets before crawling into bed.
Starring Jeff Daniels, …

Vampire Knight: Guilty is the second season of the anime based on the manga, Vampire Knight, by Matsuri Hino which is my favorite vampire anime, mainly because it is a shoujo, but still serious at the same time. The image on this DVD cover is of Ichiru and …

My Super Ex-Girlfriend is a nice comedy movie. The movie stars Uma Thurman, Anna Faris and Luke Wilson in the lead roles. Though the movie is entertaining and enjoyable, it some times gets boring and illogical. Even if we accept the fact that Uma is a super girl, we …

Elisha Cuthbert, Daniel Gillies
MA 15+ Strong violence, blood and gore.
I should have known that this film was going to turn my stomach. I’m not the blood and gore kind of girl but I am a Roland Joffe (director of the Killing Fields) fan.
First let me say that the rating …

I am reviewing the third installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, called At World’s End. Okay, so the first movie was fantastic. The second movie was good. The third…terrible. What were those writers thinking? I am a huge Pirates of the Caribbean fan, but I …

The thief and the cobbler is a 1993 animated fantasy film set in an Arabian like land..Even though it was released in 1993,the film was in production for about 30 years because of the difficulty of the director to fund the movie.In the beginning of the film,the three golden …

I am reviewing the 2008 movie, Cloverfield. It stars a lot of no names. So it starts with this dude asked to tape this going away party for this guy. He is to document what people say. So, he has the camera rolling all the time. Everybody seems …

DNAngel Episode 7 has Dark trying to seal the evil Adonis from Greek myth after he is revived and preys on one of the schoolgirls at Daisuke’s school.
This episode was pretty good. The animation was nice to look at and the plot was also very good. It …

Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the best horror movies ever, but personally i prefer the older version and not the recent. The older version had so much more power to it, it expressed fear in a much more direct way, the blood was much more realistic and splattered …

My wife and I will be celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary this weekend. And, I though it would be only fitting that I took a few minutes to talk about the first movie we ever watched together; Scary Movie.
I know, for a date movie, this might actually be one …

Erin Brockovich is based on the life story of the woman who brought one of the largest class action lawsuits in history again the California utilities companies. More than a courtroom drama though, this film is about an unemployed single mother of three children living on the brink of …

I enjoyed this movie very much, not just because it stars the luscious Natasha Richardson, but because the dynamic between Richardson’s character and the character played by Mia Farrow is a delightful tongue-in-cheek account of Anglo-Irish relations that appeals to both my English and Irish ancestors. Their rivalry …

Joe Johnston takes over directorial duties for the third entry in the Jurassic Park franchise and unfortunately, fails to captain a worthy successor to the fantastic first movie and enjoyable second.
The story is certainly lacking in any real scope. While the first two movies had an epic quality about …

In 1960, Doris Day starred in a mystery thriller called Midnight Lace. It’s definitely more intense and dramatic than what Day was known for traditionally. She handles the work very well; it’s just not my kind of movie. Day, in fact, was nominated for Best Actress …

Brittany Murphy is cute, very cute, and from what I can see that is one of the driving forces of Love and Other Disasters.
This movie is a romantic comedy which appears to desperately want to be different yet is stuck with every cliche you can think of, from the …

Transformers was one of the most awaited films of 2007. And honestly, I wasn’t really that keen on watching it, maybe because I never was aware of the animated series in the 80’s. But because one of my closest friends really wants to watch it, I decided to come …

Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.
From someone who watched the likes of Rashomon to My Favorite Martian on a daily rotating basis, I sadly found myself living …

I did not enjoy all the scenes I saw in this movie but for me this movie is a good one because it teaches the viewers that there are things that are totally disagreeable in the hiding. It also gives us the idea that things are not …

I have always firmly believed that after the second part of a movie, everybody should give up bravely and look for other ideas instead of milking the movie’s earlier successes to death as can be seen in the likes of Robocop, Scream, etc but back to Shrek 3.
Last week, …

One evening while we were in Phoenix, Arizona we became bored so we decided to find a movie theater close enough to our hotel that we could get to within twenty minute drive and that was well lit. We talked to the hotel desk clerk and he recommends …
