Not having seen any film from the Saw franchise, and just liking the way the commercials looked, I watched Dead Silence with a little wary hesitation. I’d wanted to see if from those ads, thinking that it looked creepy, and hey dolls usually are in the right circumstances, but …

The movie “St. Trinian’s” failed to impress me, even though it had an excellent cast of actors such as Colin Firth, Rupert Everett, Mischa Barton and Stephen Fry. I found the script lacked certain magic and, in certain moments, there didn’t seem to be a link between one scene …

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 legend of King Arthur and his knights have managed to be portrayed in various versions. However, as one might want to know the earlier depictions of the legend, there is one movie title that you should watch. Excalibur is the title of the movie, that has been produced …

To be frank, 2010 hasn’t been a great year for comedy. Most of the billed “comedy” movies have been stale and unfunny, and the ones that are occasionally funny are better characterized as dramas. While The Other Guys isn’t a cinematic masterpiece, it is the funniest movie of the …

Another silent montage film by the perhaps most appreciated director that worked with the style, next to Eisenstein - Vsevolod Pudovkin.
Looking through all of his work, I have to say Pudovkin’s films have aged a lot better than Eisenstein. While Eisenstein did all he could to make the films …

I love the first National Treasure movie. So, when they came out with the sequel, Book of Secrets, I couldn’t wait to see it.
Unfortunately, even though I did enjoy the film, I felt it fell well short of the original.
Book of Secrets relies on two things; first, there is …

Bill Plympton is an animator who is notorious for an off-kilter sense of humor. Ever since his first noted animated short, Your Face, to his feature film debut, The Tune, he’s been responsible for some of the most madcap imagery in hand drawn animation. As he made …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Premium OVA DVD is a collection of shorts of Fullmetal Alchemist characters based off events during and after the first anime series and has nothing to do with the new Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood series.
This DVD is something that any Fullmetal Alchemist fan should have in …

I’m a big fan of political thrillers; as long as they are fast paced and make you think while entertaining you.
The movie Vantage Point has some of the makings of a great movie but takes things a bit too far in terms of trying to do too much.
The plot …

This is a GREAT movie…nothing short of GREAT. A killer is sent back in time to erase the mother of the leader of a revolutionary group and as the film goes, the killer has a very hard time trying to capture and eradicate this problem. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as …

I had expected the movie —˜Gomorrah’ to be dark and violent, as the plot is about gangs in modern-day Naples, Italy, and it was certainly as I expected. What I hadn’t expected was that, along with the murder and drugs that are prominently featured in this sub-titled film, the …

There are times when some of the best movies I’ve seen were ones I stumbled across haphazardly. I first became aware of this particular film after seeing a t-shirt for it on the horror site, Rotten Cotton. A trailer for the film was viewable next to the …

The 2001 movie “Bubble Boy” might not have gotten a very good rating in a number of places, but it’s one of those movies that I’ve found I can watch multiple times and never get bored of. It might be silly all around, but I still think that it’s funny …

Before watching this movie, I asked some of my friends about “Shawn of the Dead” since I didn’t want to waste my money watching foolishness in the theatres. At that time I got mixed reactions. There were people to said that the movie was hilarious and there were others …

James Cameron is one of the few directors that know how to make a movie that explains everything. The man’s films will never have you questioning what happened or what so and so are doing at a certain point. James Cameron is one of the best directors out there …

It is Christmas Eve, and my son and I went to the movies today to get away from the crowds, before I forget, to one and all may you have a Merry Christmas and a Joyous New Year.
Anyway we went to see PS I Love you, at …

My husband would call this a definite “Chick” flick. No action, no thrills, just relationships and love. My feminist “hackles” go up when he says that and I feel slightly guilty to admit that I “kinda” liked this movie.
It’s not a new story …

I didn’t know what to expect when I rented The Brothers Bloom DVD; I had heard about this movie a bit, but not enough to get an idea what it would be like. I loved it, and in my opinion, it deserves a lot more hype than it got.
The …

Critically acclaimed drama about a woman who alone has to take care of her son. One day her brother comes to visit and things start to change in the relationship betweem the mother and her son.

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 …

Fear and loathing in las vegas is one of the best movies i’ve ever seen

It was almost …

I did not expect a sequel to this movie would come out. But when it did, I had to watch it as soon as possible. The experience was amazing.
The movie kicks off from where the fact that Kumar(Kal Penn) and Harold(John Cho) ate those 30 burgers. And now they …

Serendipity is so beautiful, it’s almost cathartic. One of the loveliest movies I’ve seen.
The movie is about how if two people are destined to be together, luck brings them together. Kate Beckinsale (Sarah in the film) plays the sweet “believer” perfectly, while John Cusack (Jonathan in the film) …

There are movie screenings after which when I get out of the cinema I feel strange for a while. As if I’m in another world. Everything is familiar, but somehow different, strange. That is a clear evidence that I’ve watched something great and insightful. I have immersed myself in …

Here is another favorite film of mine and of many others I know. Everyone must have seen the wild actics of this strange family and the new comer to the household. I even got me a whistle. “The hills are alive” hmmm, are they really, “with the sound of …

Ok, so I had watched this movie 2 times in the theater, and I would watch it again if given the chance! This movie runs for 2 hours, which I didn’t even notice as the time flew by for me. First, this movie is perfect for all ages, whether …

The Hurt Locker is a film that I expected with great interest not only because of the quantity of praise given to it but also because it was the first film in a long while that was addressing the Iraq war. Kathryn Bigelow, world’s first female …

As I’ve indicated in other reviews, I’m not a huge fan of British movies. And, the Hugh Grant film About a Boy is a good example of why.
Grant plays his normal character, a single man who looks to hook up with various women and starts out lying to them …

How a twenty dollar bill travels from person to person in an american town is the whole plot of this film. A very interesting idea indeed, but it isn’t put to work in the way i would have hoped for. Instead of focusing on the characters the bill is …

This film is definitely a chick flick. And not only that, it’s definitely for high school girls. While it was made quite a few years ago, it’s still funny to think about the two girls and their interesting perspectives on life and what is important in life. Especially for …

This was a great movie for me. I used to work in retail. Most movies are based out of big city office complexes, and most of the average people working in shopping centers, restaurants, or some other ordinary job. So I really related to this movie. However the …

Attitude is everything, and in To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar, there is plenty of attitude. When I first heard that Patrick Swayze was going to be in this movie, I was surprised, but there’s a reason for everything Patrick does, and when I learned it …

In 1978, there was a movie produced called Dominique. Unlike the bouncing tune made famous in The Singing Nun, this Dominique is deadly serious. In fact, it’s essentially a murder mystery.
Everything in this piece is very slow and deliberate. As a viewer, it’s easy to draw …
