I think the movie “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” was supposed to be based upon a novel by the same name as I think I remember my boyfriend recommending it to me to read. However, I never read the book and I only watched the movie. I can …

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 …

Director Jason Reitman, in his third feature (after “Juno” and “Thank You for Smoking”) delivers “Up in the Air,” a more heartfelt and poignant effort than either of its predecessors-stylized in a similar way, but much more honest in its pathos-tinged comedy. It works better for me story-wise because …

Eight Legged Freaks is a film about spiders. The storyline happens when a person is collecting spiders and a chemical liquid accidently leaked into a lake. The spiders drank the liquid and escaped from the keepers cages. Then they hide in mines near a town. The people who live …

My husband and I saw this movie last night. The movie started out with the viewer knowing quite a bit of the continuing saga of the alien and predator saga. It did pick up where the last left off with the predator having captured some specimens of …

Sillendru Oru Kadhal is a fantastic romantic Tamil movie. The film directed by debutant Krishna. He worked as a assistant director for director Gautam. The real life couple Surya and Jothika paired up in this movie. This was officially the final movie for Jothika before …

The Bourne Identity is one of the best action movies around. I also believe that this movie resurrected Matt Damon’s career. He hadn’t done a good movie in a very long time (Good Will Hunting) and he is absolutely fantastic in this thriller. It differs from …

C.D is the fire chief in his town, he takes his job very seriously and even though he has a very rare appendage, he does not let that get in the way of the task he has to do. He is well known and loved in the town by …

Traitor came out and was hoping to bank off of the success of other films. It didn’t work too well but can the video release at least shed some life on Don Cheadle’s action movie?
Samir Horn (Don Cheadle) sells weapons to terrorists. When a sale in Yemin goes …

Rushmore (1998) is a comedy directed by Wes Anderson and is rated PG-13 by the MPAA

I enjoyed watching Billy Elliot. This was a couple of years back but I watched it again recently, since my cousin has a copy of it. I came across it at her house the other day and thought of watching it again. A very moving, sweeping and …

Perhaps the most important of all experimental films ever made. This was directed by Maya Deren and is and shows one event taking place repeatedly, but each time there is a difference in the way it occurs, only a minor one barely noticable. No matter what you think about …

This movie was a perfect vehicle for Bill Murray, in the same sense as Caddyshack and What About Bob? Were. The only difference between those two films and Meatballs is that Meatballs had him in a more serious role, surrounded by goofballs who take up where Murray would have …

Birdman aka “The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance”, is a surprisingly dark-comedy film denoting the struggles of faded Hollywood star Riggan Thompson (Michael Keaton). Thompson played the eponymous “Birdman” an exceptionally popular superhero, in a series of blockbuster movies decades prior. Whilst being tortured by the internal voice of “Birdman”, …

I watched Talladega nights on opening night and every show we tried to find was sold out but we finally managed to find tickets to a show that eventually sold out as well. Talladega nights is probably the funniest movie of the year. Will Ferrel is close to the …

I viewed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on HBO. I found the fifth Harry Potter film to be the darkest of them. Possibly, because of Harry’s general anger in this film.
I actually liked the movie better than the book. I am normally the type …

I rented this because I am a huge Lili Taylor fan. She has something that other actresses don’t have which is guts. She’s not conventionally pretty, but always manages to look so in her films. At any rate, this story is about a housewife …

Yesterday I watched the movie of House of wax. Well, it was really frightening. The main caracters are Elisha Cuthbert, Paris Hilton, Chad Michael Murray, Jared Padalecki, Jon Abrahams. A group of friends on their way to a college football game falls prey to a pair of murderous brothers …

Another film based on a play by Shakespeare, but moved to a modern environment. This time it’s set in England in the 1930s, where a civil war has lead to the death of the king. A new king is reinstated, but his younger brother is planning a plot against …

I am extremely disappointed! To the point of almost tears… So i finally got a chance to go see the latest Bond film, the Quantum of Solace…and Daniel Craig has managed to, single handedly, make me scream in agony.
I definately agree witih sir Roger Moore …

Code Geass is a great anime that has a similar story to Death Note. Code Geass is about a boy, Lelouch, who is actually the son of the emperor of Britannia. Though he hides his true identity from everyone, he vows to overthrow the Britannian empire. …

The Back-Up Plan starring Jennifer Lopez and Alex O’Loughlin has a catchy subtitle: fall in love. get married. have baby Not necessarily in that order. The thing is, that because movies have to happen in less than a few hours, and the time span of this particular movie has …

It took me a very long time to watch the movie “Die Hard” since after seeing it advertise on cable television, and hearing people, including of of my friends in particular talk about it, I thought it would be another one of those action movies with lots of action …

I was seriously pretty excited that Watchmen the movie opening is today in my country. And just now, I went to buy tickets to watch it with my boyfriend. We were quite disappointed in the end after watching. My boyfriend is an avid comic reader, and he …

Synopsis: A newly hired principal must improve the performance of his high school in time for the basic skills exam or the district will lose control of the school to the state.
What I liked about this movie: This film, which is based on real events, is one of those …

I took some time to think whether to review The 40-Year-Old Virgin or not. It has been many years before that I’ve watched this but each time I’m thinking of whether to review this, I think again. Truth is, Steve Carell sizzles in this movie and is very …

I had been waiting on the edge of my seat for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince to come out. I watched all of the movies prior to this one on DVD three or four times in the last month, getting reaquainted with the story and the …

Dirty Dancing is one of those movies that people either love or don’t care for at all. I’m definitely one of the former people, which explains why I now own three copies of the movie on DVD. When I was looking through the racks of a local store and …

“Fresh Bones” was the 39th episode of the popular 90s American television series “The X-Files”. It I also the 15th episode of the popular series from the show’s second season. I just watched this episode recently on the Sci-Fi cable television channel, and thought that this was one …

So, yeah. This movie happened. Don’t. Watch. It. Please. The story is so atrociously terrible and the acting is subpar (other than Jodie Foster, of course.). Please.
Story: So this girl lives on an island in South America with her father who is Gerald Butler, which apparently he does after …

A great relationship movie from a mastermind named Tyler Perry. The focus is on four couples who have been great friends for years. This movie touches on a lot of topics regarding men and woman alike, the struggles that each go through in finding themselves, the bridges they must …

It’s not often that I will find a movie so horrible I have to turn it off before I even get halfway through it. This is especially true of war movies. However, Jarhead became one of those films.
When I read the description of the movie and saw the previews, …

Though it still rates as a “B movie,” Zack Snyder’s 2004 remake of the 1978 Romero cult classic still rates as a smart, mostly consistent, and occasionally humorous film. I wouldn’t finger the movie as being a turning point in the zombie genre, but it’s certainly a high point, …

When I watched the 2002 crime drama “City of God” recently, I just found it hard to believe that a film so good had escaped my notice for so many years. The thing is it’s one of those films whose plot revolves around gangsters, life in the ghetto and gang …

The third Gidget movie was entitled Gidget Goes to Rome. It marks the last time that James Darren would appear as the very handsome and ‘oh, I’m swooning’ when I see him, Moondoggie. He was happy to move on from the character, though he understands its place …

Takeshi Kitano has been a mainstay of the Japanese entertainment industry for more than twenty years. He first entered the world of directing with 1991’s Violent Cop, a film that was originally intended to be directed by Yakuza movie legend Kinji Fukasaki. However, Fukusaki became ill whilst filming and …

Oh I love this movie ! The chemistry between the characters is apparent during the film and I love the story line and plot; the characters are round and not two dimensional, in other words there is a lot to uncover about the characters as the story moves on. …

One of my very favorite made-for-TV movies is called City Beneath the Sea from 1971. It’s not a great movie in the scheme of Emmy winners, but it is a star-studded affair that has drama, romance, and mystery. I love it and find it to be a …

I had seen the trailer for the movie “The Brothers Grimsby” previously but wrote it off and forgot about it because I didn’t think that it would be great at all. However, after seeing the audience’s reaction to a clip of the movie on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, I became …

I am such a big fan of sci-fi movies and super hero type ones. I watched every movie, every sequels, trilogies. Everything! name it i watched it. This DVD was the recent one I bought, I was so busy i have no time to purchase the most recent ones. …

I love watching Sex and the City, the series before on TV, and now that there’s a movie rendition, I sure wouldn’t want to miss it at all. As usual, it stars the lovely and gorgeous Sarah Jessica Parker and the other lovely ladies as well such as …

“Where the Heart is” is one of the best warm, fuzzy movies that you will ever watch. It is an amazing tale of a young woman who finds herself in some awful messes but comes out very well in the end because she sticks with her convictions. Her boyfriend …

Swing Hostess, a 1944 musical film, felt very much like a predecessor to Singing in the Rain to me. I thought of that almost all the way through, although it wasn’t the same story exactly.
One of the things I really liked about his movie was seeing how the …

Iwo Jima, during World War II took place, in the United States troops there dead or live, fight against Japanese troops. However, this movie is not addressing the war. Sketch opened with a conversation between James, son of John Bradley, a soldier who wave the flag at Iwo Jima, …

This is an oldie but a goodie. Certainly one of the funniest movies to come out dealing with the paranoia. It is also a nice reminder of the days when Bill Murray used to be funny. I really don’t know what happened to him, but he …
