Knocked Up The Movie
I was fortunate enough to be able to see this movie in the theatres and I loved it. I don’t agree with the message it sends to its viewers but I found it funny and entertaining just the same. And here’s why you should watch Knocked Up.
Knocked …
The Shining (1980 Psychological Horror Film)
Horror is the one genre I try to avoid the most. Ever since I was young I always tell myself never to watch a horror film because all it does to me is scare me. And I don’t want to be scared. I don’t want to have trouble sleeping at …
Thr3e movie
Have any of you heard that a movie is out based on Ted Dekker’s Christian novel “Thr3e”? I didn’t think so. For some reason, Christian movies aren’t advertised wide enough, and this new 2007 release by FoxFaith is no exception. Besides, it was only played in some theaters, and …
The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax
I am reviewing The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced in 1985/1986. This episode sees Watson on a very much needed holiday, while Holmes stays behind in Baker Street. Even far away, however, …
Smallville Show
Who doesn’t love Smallville? I never was really much into it at first but started collecting it on DVD on a whim. I let the DVD’s sit on my shelf for awhile; my fiance went nuts when he saw them and bout the rest of the series for me. …
A Map of the World (R, 1999) movie
Every once in a while you have to go back about ten years or so and find those hidden cinematic gems that you might have missed. They are not always advertised no trailers. And in many cases, the films go directly to DVD for any number of …
Secret Window Movie
This movie, starring Johnny Depp, was actually very entertaining. Johnny Depp is always good, and in this movie, he didn’t disappoint. It keeps audiences into the story from beginning to end. The characters are also interesting. You feel a connection with the characters and care what happens to them. …
Columbo: Caution: Murder Can Be Hazardous to Your Health movie
Columbo: Caution: Murder Can Be Hazardous to Your Health is one of the 1991 movies of the Columbo movies, and it’s one I like a lot. It guest starred George Hamilton as security guru turned reality show host, Wade Anders. In essence, think of him as John …

The Time Travelers Wife movie
I found this movie to be too odd to be very good. The thought behind the whole movie was very unique but because of so many weird things it just made the movie not as good as it could have been.
The first thing I didn’t like was that …
Superman Vs Doomsday
Coming from Old School Superman, I could never really get into Superman and Lois Lane as an item. I can appreciate its inevitability � I mean, after all, they’ve been working together almost seventy years. But if television is any indicator, romances typically mean the death knell to a …
The perfect Sunday movie
Last Sunday lifetime movie network had a “the perfect sunday” event going on where they showed movies with the word “perfect” in them. Some of the movies that they played were perfect marriage, perfect neighbor, the perfect nanny, the perfect assistant. I watched some of the movies, I couldn’t …

I just finished watching this movie with my mom and brother. It was a nice movie, a bit longer than what we expected. The movie characters are great; they played very well and with the right emotions to what they are there for. I have read the stories about …

Phone Booth Movie
Honesty and having the option to tell peole the complete truth is always taken for granted. The act of lying is being done way more than it should and things need to be changed. That is the main theme Joel Schumacher was trying to create while directing the movie …
Movie Eternal Summer
“No one wishes to be lonely, neither do we.”
Many people might tag this as a gay movie, which it is, but it is also something more. Jonathan and Shane are people who have been best friends since primary school. Unknown to Shane, Jonathan has been in love with …
Incident on a Dark Street movie
I wouldn’t be surprised if I’d seen this movie, Incident on a Dark Street, back when it aired in 1973, but I don’t remember it. Still, it was a TV pilot that had all the makings of a show I probably would watch. It didn’t sell, however, …

.hack//G.U Trilogy is a 2 hour movie based on 3 video games; .hack//G.U Rebirth vol.1, Reminisce vol.2 and Redemption vol.3. These are all 3 games that are all connected in chronological order. These 3 games are actually some of my favorite games of all time as they had great characters, …
Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …

Big Bad Wolves (thriller movie)
I think that the theme of Vigilantism never truly loses its charm no matter how many times movies are made on the subject. This is why I was quite interested in watching the movie “Big Bad Wolves”. I’d never seen an Israeli film before and I was curious to know …
The Hills Have Eyes 2
It’s not often I come across a horror film that actually scares me to the point I want to make sure all the doors and windows are locked. The Hills Have Eyes 2 managed to accomplish this.
The 2007 remake turned out to be one of the scarier movies I’ve …
Movie Benny and Joon
Johnny Depp plays the roll of Sam, an accentric young man who falls in love with Joon, played by Mary Stuart Masterson, a young woman who lost touch with reality after her parents died. The movie is a clean, fun and enjoyable film to watch. A feel good story …
Little Miss Sunshine
Little Miss Sunshine is a road movie with a difference. A dysfunctional family from suburbia on their way to child’s talent contest seemed about as attractive to me as watching paint dry ! But I must say I was pleasantly surprised. A nice mix of humour and pathos and …
White House Down (movie)
One of the most thrilling movies that I watched in the past couple of weeks was White House Down. At first, I ignored it mostly because I had read a lot of bad reviews from both movie critics and regular people. What’s worse is that it had a fairly …
Pineapple express
I watched pineapple express today and it was overall a good funny movie. There was nonstop laughter and humorous parts in the movie. There was one part in the movie that I didn’t like, it was the gunshot scene, I felt like there was too much going on and …

Unlikely Angel movie
Unlikely Angel is a holiday movie from 1996 which stars Dolly Parton as a rather selfish country music performer (aside from the selfish part, not a big stretch … again) who dies suddenly. Being egotistical, Ruby Diamond can’t enter Heaven without doing a good deed first, so it’s …
The Bourne Ultimatum
I have enjoyed both the previous Bourne movies, but I HAVE to say that the last one The Bourne Ultimatum was by far my favourite! I am usually not that much into watching sequels - but the Bourne Sequels just got better and better as they went along! …

Veggie Tales: The Pirates who don’t do anything
I’ve sat down to watch Veggie Tale movies with my daughter before. But, I’ve only done it to be nice; I’ve rarely enjoyed the experience. However, the movie The Pirates who don’t do Anything, is definitely an exception. I actually liked the movie as much as she did.
Unlike other …

The Ultimate Gift (a recent 2007 release) proves once again that you can make a good - no, excellent - movie without blood, gore, sex scenes, and bad language. Jason Stevens (Drew Fuller) is a trust fund kid who hasn’t worked a day in his life. Raised in wealth, …

Ladder 49
I am reviewing the movie, Ladder 49, starring John Travolta and Juaquin Pheonix, among many others. This movie depicts the courageousness of being a firefighter. Juaquin Pheonix plays a newbie fireman whose captain (John Travolta) shows him the ropes of the job. It isn’t all hard work and …
Masters of Horror: Valerie on the Stairs
Valerie on the Stairs isn’t a very good movie on its own, and when you compare it to the other films in the Masters of Horror series, it looks even worse. That’s fairly sad considering the amount of talent in the movie. The movie centers on a main character …
Split (2017 Psychological Thriller Film)
The idea of watching a psychological film circling around different personalities inside a single person is potentially invigorating. After all the idea has never been done to death. That’s why I am earnestly hopeful that my first M. Night Shyamalan feature could fulfill the gap of films I missed in …
Pay It Forward
Pay It Forward is a nice movie in the genre of drama. The movie stars Haley Joel Osment, Helen Hunt and Kevin Spacey. Haley Joel Osment, the kid who impressed everyone with his powerful performance in The Sixth Sense plays the pivotal role in this movie and he doesn’t …
Pocahontas
I love the story of Pocahontas even in the book so when I had the chance to see the animated movie I really never missed it. I enjoyed watching it since it is a different kind of story and also it has a combination of reality and magic. I …
