I love watching independent films, especially ones from countries around the world. Therefore, what this means is that I sometimes go searching for new ones and get excited whenever I hear of one that’s really good. Well, recently I’d been hearing a lot about an independent film named …

Borrowed Hearts is one of my all time favorite Christmas movies. My mom, sister and I have to watch it every year. You can now buy the DVD of this movie or watch it on tv during the Christmas season. It stars Roma Downey, Hector Elizondo, and Eric McCormack(from …

I went to see this movie on its opening day. The main thing that made me excited to see it was how hilarious the promotional commercials for the film were- especially the scenes featuring Comedian Kevin Hart. Even though there was a small part of me that …

I really didn’t know what to expect when I went to the theatre to watch The Men Who Stare at Goats, but from what I had read and seen, I was intrigued enough to actually not wait to see it on DVD, which is unusual for me. Plus, I …

I had the baby early this morning and ended up trying to find a good movie to watch. I ended up watching a film I hadn’t seen in a while; Star Trek First Contact.
I’m actually not a huge fan of the Star Trek Next Generation films like this one. …

The Car is a very old but super scary movie. The movie was very good in my opinion. I think that the film really shows the kind of stuff that people really fear. I mean what’s not scary about a car that drive by it’s self and kills people? …

I think Nicole Kidman is the most sensual actress working today. This isn’t just because of her great looks, but because of the way she exudes her emotions. So when I had the opportunity to watch “Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus” with Kidman playing the famed photographer, …

The movie Harry potter is marvellous. Actually I had not seen this movie at all, but I had heard about this movie by many of my friends and my colleagues. My kids love to watch movie a lot and recently when the movie Harry potter was …

I grew up reading DC Comics sometimes, and also watching animated series that revolved around popular DC Comic characters such as Superman and Batman and the Justice League. Now that I’m an adult I still watch some of their animated movies on occasion, especially when I’m feeling in the mood …

Bela Lugosi is once again out for blood in Return Of The Vampire, produced in 1944 by Columbia pictures. This is one of my favorite vampire movies, and I still remember seeing it on late night TV in my youth.
Lugosi plays Armand Tesla, the “depraved Romanian scientist” …

This is one of the best classic medieval stories I have ever watched! Jim Caviezel is the main actor here playing the part of poor Edmond Dantes, who’s just a commoner intent on marrying his long-time lady love Mercedes Iguanada, portrayed by Dagmara Dominczyk in real life. Edmond’s “best …

What was the essence of ‘The Fountain’, the film work of Darren Aronofsky (requiem for a Dream) is this? Search will be eternal life or melodrama about true love? I think, after witnessing film, is a combination of both and is not too bad.
Stories run parallel between Tomas (Hugh …

This movie was fantastic, it had me chuckling the whole way through. From the same team that gave us Shaun of the Dead, this takes the life of Police Officer Nicholas Angel and delights with a send up of American police movies and the British country whodunits. …

This is probably the third time I’ve watched the TV movie Drake & Josh Go Hollywood and, I’m not sure why, but I’m finding it to be one of the dumbest possible movies ever.
I mean the whole premise of the film doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. First, …

Art Of Revenge is a Lifetime movie that starts off with a young, married couple who seems to have it all. Or at least that is what the movie producers want you to think. Art of Revenge started off, as I perceived the movie, with a whining wife and …

It took me a very long time to actually sit down and watch the movie America’s Sweethearts since I’ve never been a big fan of the actress Julia ROberts because I’m so used to seeing her in romance movies, and frankly, she has never held my attention. Thus, …

Ben Affleck is certainly not one of my favorite actors. But he just might have me on being one of the better producer/ directors to get behind the camera. He cast his little brother Casey in this gritty role of a private detective who has been asked …

I was looking forward to seeing The Proposal when it came out this week on DVD, mainly because I think Sandra Bullock is a comedic genius. She also produced this film, and in my opinion, she has a knack for making non-cheesy, seriously funny comedies that also work as …

Even before it was shown, so much hype has revolved around The Dark Knight, the 2008 sequel to the critically-acclaimed Batman Begins. I’ve waited for this movie for a long time not just because I want to see the last full-length movie of Heath Ledger, but mainly because I’m …

The movie James Bond Casino Royale is the best Bond movie I have seen. The action is amazing, but it also has an engaging, exciting plot. The action is shot and acted in a way that you really feel scared for the characters. It is never …

I sat down to watch the movie The Little Polar Bear with my daughter last night and, I’ll admit it, I really wasn’t expecting it to be very good. But, after seeing it, I will say it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.
The movie focuses on …

I love Asian movies; I liked mostly the horror movies, the likes of “The Shutter, “The Eye”, among others. It was just recently that my brother has downloaded an anime series called the death note. It was a bit long, too long for me to actually sit down and …

The Last Starfighter is a neat little science fiction story that is interesting and entertaining to watch. Robert Preston really excelled as his mysterious and colorful character of Centauri. I think I like his portrayal the best. He’s funny, and he keeps you guessing.
Lance Guest played …

Watching Black Swan makes me feel like I was trapped in a crazy world of ballet. I believe Natalie Portman’s portrayal of Nina Sayers brought a great deal to the success of this film. Not only that she played the role well, she managed to depict perfection and I …

It’s the time of the year when film companies campaign for their best movies before the Oscars. I looked everywhere in the weekend papers as well as online finding the distracting line ‘for your consideration.’ Although I was not the intended target for those ads, I considered …

Finally, some more terminator action! It seems that Andy didn’t give up his Turk/Chess creation and is now reprogramming a prototype. Sarah decides to sit him down and spill the beans about everything but before she could do that, an unknown person (or terminator rather?) takes it from him …

Whenever I watch a movie starring the ever talented Brendan Fraser, I would swoon. That’s because he is such a talented actor and his acting is so magical each time. The roles that he played are all the right kind of mix for him. From the anthology …

Ok. I just saw Star Trek Generations on Cable last night and I was telling my husband how much I love and hate the movie. I’m a big Star Trek fan, hands down. I’ve seen all of the orginal Star Trek movies and Next Generations movies hundreds of time, …

“My Name Is Bruce” is Bruce Cambell’s latest attempt at a film. Just like his others this film falls in the it’s so bad it’s good category. Basically the film revolves around a town and a young man who lives in it. Ultimatley this …

I really like this animation film so much. Although I am already an adult I still find it a very enjoyable one. I love it so much since it has a lot of lessons learned. As a viewer it left me with lots of points to ponder on. I …

Shallow Hal is probably one of the funniest movies I have ever seen in my life. Jack Black stars as Hal the shallow guy who only cares about a woman’s body. I gotta say the movie made me laugh. The past where he said tells him to get a woman …

A very complex documentary about the fact that some Hollywood directors use the name Alan Smithee when their film is severly cut down by producers and they don’t consider the film theirs anymore.
The strange thing as that the director of this film, named Arthur Hiller, thought the film was …

I went to see this movie with a couple of friends. Katherine Heigl didn’t let us down, she is made for chick flicks. The basic story is that Jane (played by Grey’s Anatomy and Knocked Up’s Katherine Heigl) has been a bridesmaid 27 times. …

I bought this movie after seeing it at goodwill for 25 cents. It was a VHS tape but since I had never seen it before, and I still have a VCR I figured for 25 cents I could watch it.
Yesterday I was kind of bored after doing all …
