Movies Reviews
Paranormal Activity movie
Last night I watched the movie Paranormal Activity. From the moment the movie began I thought, “Oh no this movie is so cheaply made.” However I decided I’d give it a chance since I’d heard so many great things about it.
From the beginning when they set the camera …

Movie Anger Management
If you want to watch a good movie and forget about any stress you may have, well don’t choose to watch “Anger Management”. This is an incredible hiliarious movie with the actors, Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson at their best in opposite roles. I believe that if you are …
A Simple Twist of Fate
A Simple Twist of Fate is a drama starring Steve Martin. I watched this movie recently on cable and sort of liked it. Though the first half of the movie is a bit boring, the movie picks up the pace in the later half and finally ends on an …
Gulliver’s Travels (2010 Film)
Jack Black is one of those actors who I can’t seem to not laugh at. He is just funny to me, his facial expressions, his voice changes, his general presence in films and responses to other elements and actors in films leaves me breathless with laughter. And while I …
Robin Hood movie
Robin Hood came out surrounded by buzz that it was going to be Gladiator 2. I’m guessing this is because Ridley Scott directed and Russel Crowe starred, just like in Gladiator. But there is very little the same about the two movies. Sure they both follow …
Roman Polanski’s “Oliver Twist,” 2005
I went to see Roman Polanski’s 2005 release of “Oliver Twist” a couple of days ago. I was not disappointed, but I wasn’t very impressed, either. One of the good points is that the story is not in any way “Hollywoodized,” it is told in a straight, true-to-the-source way. …
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen A&E
I believe the best movie version of Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice is by A&E. I’ve read the book, and the A&E version holds very close to Austin’s work. I hate when movie directors and film writers believe they have to make the classic their own, by making …
My Week with Marilyn Monroe (movie)
I’ve been into quite a lot of action films especially lately so it’s easy to see how a movie like this would have escaped my attention at first. I’m not even going to call myself a gigantic Marilyn Monroe fan but the little I’ve heard of her and just …
Saving Mr. Banks (2013 Film)
I’ll admit, I’m a sucker for Disney movies. They always have a way of dragging me back to my childhood to the happy times of being a kid without a care in the world.
Saving Mr. Banks is the real life approach to Mary Poppins. At first, when I heard …

“Storm Over Ryloth” is the first in a three-part episode revolving around the Republic’s attempt to free a Twi’lek populated planet from Separatist fleets led by Wat Tambor and the Techno Union who have invaded and taken over the planet.
This first part shows us the Republic battling through the …
Before sunrise movie
I bought a copy of this CD from HMV store which I’ve got on sale and as I read the back label of the CD I thought this movie is something worthwhile to be watched because as it says it is quite romantic. Since I am a big …
Mean Girls
Ugh. I hate the title for this movie even more than I hate the movie itself. And what surprises me is the amount of parents that let their kids watch something with the title ‘Mean Girls’. It’s not such an awful movie; I guess. It’s your typical high school …
The Haunting in Connecticut movie
I watched The Haunting in Connecticut the other day with my boyfriend and there are lots of scary moments for me. I was so scared out of my mind and a lot of times it made me laugh because I was so nervous like when a member of the …
The movie Home On The Range
Home On The Range was, in my opinion, not one of Disney’s best movies. I had absolutely no desire to see this movie when it came out. I saw the trailer and was completely and totally unimpressed by they movie. However even though I had decided …
Justice League: War (2014 movie)
I’ve always been fascinated watching the Justice League series on television even though I’ve never been fortunate enough to own one of the comic books. Each time I hear that another movie has been released I’m always very eager to go and watch it too since I find that …
Movie Fear

The Pool
Yesterday, my boyfriend brought along this DVD title, The Pool which he got stashed at his home and my siblings were getting a freak movie treat yesterday. This is actually something like a teen flick, but then again, I would still label it as a ‘Psycho’ movie. To …
X - Men 3 (movie)
Last night, my husband and I rented the third X Men movie on demand. I rarely praise movies or feel like they would be good enough to acutally go and see in the theater, but I must admit, I was really impressed with this movie. I think …
The Mist Movie
The Mist is a very interesting movie to say the least. It kept me on my toes and is very intense. At times the acting could be a little cheesy but heck, sometimes you just want to be entertained and it definitely does that.
I just wish Stephen …
Carnage comedy movie
“Carnage” is a 2011 comedy, arthouse type film that is actually based off of a play. I saw the trailer at my local independent films theater, and it definitely looked like something that interested me. After watching it last night, I must say, I was not disappointed! It may …
Aronofsky’s Black Swan (2010 film)
With all the campaigns on the internet and coverage from the press, it was impossible to escape the urge to watch the film. It’s awards season and anyone ignorant not to know what “Black Swan” is must be living in a different planet. I didn’t think this …
The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb
I picked up The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb because it was cheap ($6.44) and because it looked somewhat interesting, if a bit derivative. Derivative is right, this two-part mini-series steals liberally from both the Indiana Jones franchise as well as the Mummy series.
Does the Curse of King …
Nayak (movie), 2001
The movie Nayak released in 2001. I watched this film at home on TV. The story is of a man who becomes the Chief Minister of a state for only one day and what kind of changes and reformation he introduces into the system for the betterment of people …

Beverly Hills Chihuahua movie
I have been dying to watch this movie ever since I saw its trailer in the movie house a few weeks ago. The movie was about a Chihuahua and I saw some of the “casts” as well like some pugs and other kind of dogs so I got interested …
Springtime in the Rockies movie
Springtime in the Rockies from 1937 is a movie I have heard about for a very long time, but believe it or not, even with its marvelous song, I have never seen it, until now.
The song that is sung at the beginning is awesome. I love the harmony …
Bend it like Beckham (2002)
I think this is the very first movie I saw that starred Keira Knightley and trust me; it wasn’t all that great to launch her career as a serious Hollywood actress. This movie is based on a girl football oops, my bad soccer team and the trials that they …

Don’t Breathe - Horror Movie (2016)
When it comes to horror movies, I’ve been disappointed by the garbage churned out over the past decade. Most horror movies draw up on the cliches that were once innovative at the start of the decade. However, Don’t Breathe stands out for all the right reasons. It’s definitely a scary …
The Sixth Sense movie
I thought that The Sixth Sense is one of the best scary and strange movies made in the last 10 years. This movie really messed with my head and scared me the first time I saw it. I was not expecting the movie to be that scary, but it was …
Mean Girls
Mean Girls is one of Lindsay Lohan movie. It’s a drama comedy movie tells about the teenage life, high svhool, and friendship. I like kind a moviee like that because it can inspired me and give me a lesson about friendship because for me friendship is important.

I Walk the Line (2005)
“I Walk the Line” is a 2005 biopic of the life of musician Johnny Cash and his relationship with June Carter. The 136 movie is in color and English. I tend to like shorter movies, but the extra time in this movie is spent in music so it …
Enchanted
“Enchanted” is a fantastic musical film for all those who believe in dreams and fairytales. In a nutshell, this film is a modern day fairytale partly filmed and partly animated. I have noticed that the same concept of filming was used also in the recent “Alving and the Chipmunks” …

28 Days Later movie
Okay, they’re not zombies. They’re very much alive human beings infected with a virulent virus that transforms the most soppy and placid person into a homicidal, red eyed lunatic. They’re never referred to as zombies once in the script and the rules of this new movie monster are very …
Movie Open Water
Open Water was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. When I first started the movie, I thought, “Oh, well maybe this is one of those movies that has a good storyline, but just a low budget”. But, I guess I was wrong. It …

Baise Moi (movie)

Ironman, new movie released on 2nd May 2008, one of best “machine” movie I ever see after Transformers.

The difference is ironman not a super biological person but rather …

Man On Fire stars Denzel Washington, Christopher Walken, and Dakota Fanning. This is an exceptional film that dealt with the serious issue of the kidnapping business in Mexico, yet did so in a very warm manner.
How do you make a great film about any subject? …
No Reservations
I love it when Catherine Zeta-Jones acts. She is gracing maturely and is truly beautiful no matter what her age is.
In this movie story, she acted alongside Aaron Eckhart and this is a very beautiful story that I suppose would be very popular with loads of chefs …
