Ghosts of Cite de Soleil (R, 2006) movie

The Deaths of Ian Stone Movie

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 …
The First Wives Club Movie
The First Wives Club is one of my favorite comedies of all time. The first time I saw the movie I was young, so I did not grasp the significance of both cast and the plot as a whole, but now that I am older it is one of the …

Killer Klowns from Outer Space movie
The horror…the utter horror.
Not!!
This is a classic case of a mind at waste. How could they even consider making this movie and worse expect viewers to want to watch it. Well. as dumb as it is, I stood the torture and i watched it; and horrified I was. You …

Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope
It is hard to believe that A New Hope is the first Star Wars film ever, although when it comes to chronological sequencing, it is actually the middle of the whole six-film lineup. I can still remember when this film was first shown, I think everyone in the …
The movie A Shark’s Tale
A Shark’s Tale is one of those movies that looks like it might be okay, but the thought of paying movie theater prices to see it scares the crap out of you. I had this problem on the one hand it had a really great cast. Even Robert De …

The Immigrant movie
Charlie Chaplin plays an honest man who immigrates to America. As soon as he reaches the new country he runs in to trouble immedietly.
I think this is one of Chaplin’s most underrated short films. The story has a nearly perfect balance between hysterical physical humour and social criticism, and …

Old School the movie
I sat down with my mother, we were having a girls movie night. This girls night movie theme was comedy. Will Ferrel is always at the top of my list for comedy movies. He did not let me down on this one at all. I laughed during almost the …
Can’t Stop The Music Movie
I was just thinking back to the end of the “Disco Years.” Remember all the bad music and tacky clothes?
It was also a time for making rotten movies based on the disco craze and I can barely believe anybody ever plunked down their good money to go see …
A Kid in King Arthur’s Court
I have seen a book entitled “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” in my aunt’s library at her house which was written apparently by the author Mark Twain. However, I have never made an attempt to read the book so I am not sure if it is related …
Jesse Stone: Night Passage movie
From 2006, Tom Selleck returned to TV with Jesse Stone: Night Passage, a movie I’d just as soon as have not seen. I’ve now seen two of these movies, and they have to be among the most depressing productions known to mankind. What possible thrill did Selleck …
Blockbuster Online

Revenge of the Bridesmaids Movie (2010)
This was a cute little made for tv movie. It is intended for a younger audience if I had to guess. I would say it is appropriate for the ages 8 and up. It has little inappropriate humor, no bad language and only a …

A Series of Unfortunate Events the Movie
I have read the entire series of the Series of Unfortunate Events books, and have a strange love for them. They are filled with misfortune and woe, but at the same time a mystery, suspense, and little joys and happiness that make it absolutely fantastic. The movie was—¦well—¦a disaster. …
