Horror movies these days have taken the plunge–into the cheesy. I thought “See No Evil” would be one of those films. And to a degree it is. The same character set-up applies which involves a group of teens and a creepy old house. This time …

Orphan was released July 24th 2009. It was directed by Jaume Collet-Serra. If you haven’t seen it yet you are not missing too much so don’t fret. This movie tried hard to come across as a horror/thriller type movie. In reality it was neither. It was more like a …

I’m not a huge Billy Bob Thornton fan so, when his movie Bad Santa came out, I really avoided watching it. However, it was on one of our movie channels the other day and, since there was nothing better on, I figured I would give it a chance.
It wasn’t …

This movie is the best chick …

When I rented the movie “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor” I figured it wouldn’t be as good as the first two Mummy movies made before it (The Mummy and The Mummy Returns). I was right.
If this had been made as a stand-alone movie, perhaps a martial arts …

When I was growing up, the Bad News Bears movies were very popular. So, when the remake came out staring Billy Bob Thorton, I was skeptical.

A great depiction of the classic novel by James Fenimore Cooper, directed by great visionary filmmaker Michael Mann who shows he’s not only good for gangster movies. A visually breathtaking film, but it also hits my heart on an emotional level. This is a lot thanks to the great …

I have never appreciated The Last Samurai until it was pointed out at one of the conventions I attended recently. One of the speakers at the convention pointed out that the values and tradition upheld by these ancient Japanese warriors are significant in the building of a person’s character.
After the …

This is one of those movies that I would rate pretty highly, but can’t actually recommend. You would recommend a film by saying something like “Yeh, it’s great - go see it.” or ‘Yeh, it’s really funny” or “Yeh, it’s really romantic and sweet” etc etc.
For The Road I …

The 1961 movie, The Parent Trap, is one of my very favorite motion pictures. I own the DVD and watch it frequently. It’s family, and it’s fun.
