This is the story of a brother and sister who just happens to get scratched by a wolf one night, both start to show signs of werewolf tendencies and as the say go by, they confirm their thoughts and they begin getting stronger, and they get burn when ever …
Duplex, movie
Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore do a wonderful job in pulling off this bright comedy about a couple trying to survive their first home owner’s experience. I thought this film was playful, funny and even a bit telling in how we all sometimes fall for things that are too good …
Movie: The Killing Floor
Synopsis: A book agent moves into a new apartment and suddenly finds himself involved in a mystery that includes a stalker and possibly a murder that occurred in his very own bathroom years earlier.
What I liked about this movie: I actually recorded this film off of one of our …
Death Live in L.A. (Death & Raw) DVD REVIEW
It was 2001 when Chuck Schuldiner made one of his last presentations with Death before withdrawing from the metal scene due to his battle against cancer. This DVD is not only a recording of this concert, which took place in a reknown L.A. house called ‘Whisky a Go Go’, …
Eyes of a Stranger
Eyes of a Stranger is a Richard Dean Anderson film from 1992 that I’ve never seen, most likely because I’m really not into murder mysteries that are scary all that much, and that’s what this film is suppose to be. Since someone gifted me with this recently, it …
Netflix
I have been a Netflix customer for over two years now. As an avid movie junkie, I have an entire database of movies to watch at my disposal. With a variety of payment plans and delivery options, Netflix has really been amazing to me. I started out by receiving …
Signs (movie)
The director of this movie, M. Night Shyamalan, first gained critical acclaim with his psychological thriller with The Sixth Sense. While I agree that was a very good movie, I believe Signs to be the stronger of the two. This movie would probably go on my top …
X-Men Origins Wolverine
I was eagerly looking forward to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. After watching it, I have mixed feelings. Oh, it was exciting, and visually spectacular, and the characters were all really interesting. It was nice to see so many new mutants with so many new powers. I liked that …
Carlin on Campus
I had never seen the comedy show Carlin on Campus (featuring George Carlin) before. So, when I came across a repeat of it on one of the cable networks last night I figured I would take the time to watch it.
Having never seen Carlin’s standup routine before, I understand …
The Happening (2008) Movie
I really did not know what to think of the movie The Happening. The trailer looked promising, the actors were supposedly good, and the writer and director is M. Night Shyamalan. He was the one who gave us the Sixth Sense, the Village, and now, this.
The Happening stars Mark …
Kill Bill Volume 1
I’m not a big fan of Quentin Tarantino so before I saw Kill Bill Volume 1, I didn’t really know what to expect (I failed to watch the much talked about Pulp Fiction). I’m sure glad I watched it because it’s truly one of the most engaging movies I’ve …
Ironman 2 movie
After watching the first Ironman movie and finding myself quite impressed by it, and also hearing that the band AC/DC had released another album which was part of the Ironman 2 soundtrack, I found myself very eager to watch it. Even though I had no clue what this sequel …
Little Women movie
Little Women is about a group of sisters who grow up together. They face many trials along the way, but through their love are able to overcome any obstacle. Winona Ryder plays Jo, the independent, outspoken, creative sister, who is always working on a story. It …
The Dark Night
I have been a Batman fan since I was about five years old. In that time, I’ve followed every Batman movie made, from the good to the really bad.
I enjoyed “Batman Begins,” but it didn’t capture my imagination is the way I hoped it would. …
Greencine
Greencine is another company that offers dvd rentals by mail just like blockbuster and netflix. They had a free trial a while back but I don’t know if they still do. The main reason I didn’t care for them is because they didn’t have a lot of movie titles …
Flightplan
I watched Flightplan yesterday shown on the local TV channel and it is so good to see such a good actress Jodie Foster, acting once more.
I know that this was a movie that was shown years back but somehow or rather, it is just so good to be …
The Hottie & The Nottie
Considering it had Paris Hilton in the starring role and the fact it came straight to DVD, I had a lot of doubts about the film The Hottie & The Nottie.
After all, this is 2008, you would think a movie that focuses just on a woman’s looks rather than …
Tomcats (2001)
Tomcats, directed by Gregory Poirier is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for strong sexual content including dialogue, and for language. The original release date for this movie was March 30, 2001 for United States audiences. This movie falls in the genre of Comedy and stars …

Monster VS Alien
Fooled by the thriller of monster vs alien that i have watched in youtube[dot]com, i found that this movie is not that good as everyone predicted. When the first time i watched the thriller i can only laugh, laugh, and laugh (that was because BOB scene when he get …
Silent Hill (R-2006)- movie
As usual, I got sucked into seeing this movie since I’m such a huge fan of horror. The trailers looked intriguing (as they always do). But upon reading about this movie, I realized that it is based off of a video game. This could have made …
Pride and Prejudice (2005 Film)
Before watching the 2005 film, “Pride and Prejudice” assumptions where made about how the film would be boring and dragging on for the entire two hours and nine minutes that would be spent watching it. I had honestly assumed that it would be similar to all other great love …
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
I went to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine in cinema, having already seen the previous X-Men movies and being familiar with the comics and animated series. And I was definitely impressed.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine, directed by Gavin Hood and staring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth as well as …

It was a month ago when we went to see “Slumdog Millionaire” at this theatre.We booked our tickets on phone only.But when we reached there and went to counter for taking our tickets the person in the counter asked for my credit/debit card.I thought may be for …
Movie Idiocracy
One other movie I ended up watching on TV this past weekend was a movie called Idiocracy. At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect. It’s from the same people who brought us Beavis and Butthead and, while I did watch the show when I was younger, I wasn’t …
Dinosaur Movie
I recently watched again the movie Dinosaur from Disney Channel, and as usual I am amazed by it. It is about a dinosaur named Aladar, his family of monkeys and other dinosaur friends. Meteors fell from the sky and destroyed their home, leaving them looking for a new nesting …
Midnight in Paris, Woody Allen Movie
Midnight in Paris is a romantic comedy written and directed by Woody Allen. He is a very controversial character that has given us many motion pictures, some good ones but also some really odd. I never know what to expect from Woody Allen but I try to watch every …
Film Sherlock Holmes [2009]
Yea yea, another one of those Sherlock Holmes spinoffs. By now can you really expect anything good out of them by now? Fortunately, after countless mind numbingly awful “reimaginings” of the world of Sherlock Holmes over the past few years (decades even), a movie finally got lucky and didn’t …
Don’t Breathe - Horror Movie (2016)
When it comes to horror movies, I’ve been disappointed by the garbage churned out over the past decade. Most horror movies draw up on the cliches that were once innovative at the start of the decade. However, Don’t Breathe stands out for all the right reasons. It’s definitely a scary …
Headless Horseman movie
I wanted to watch a horror movie with my wife last night but, since we were starting pretty late, I didn’t want to watch anything that was well-known (read that as good) just in case we ended up falling asleep during it. So, I loaded the movie Headless Horseman …

Under Suspicion movie
Under Suspicion is an interesting movie which keeps the viewer glued to the seat till the end scene. The scenes woven throughout the movie are very intriguing and if you miss a scene, you can not follow the pace of the movie. The speciality of the movie is that …
Con Air
I must admit that I am not a Nicholas Cage fan, but this actor manages to get involved himself in very exciting movie projects that one cannot simply ignore. Apart from “The National Treasure” movies, one of my Cage’s movies is “Con Air”.
Why do I enjoy watching over and …
Nine months Movie
I just saw this movie in one of the television channel.Two hours passed without knowing in a fraction of second.It was a comedy film and had message about the value of the family.From the start to the end it was full of comedy cracker and provides us with …
Taken in Broad Daylight (2009)
I have no idea if this movie ever made it to the theatres but in any event I saw this on the Lifetime channel and found it very interesting. It is about a teenager who was kidnapped from a shopping mall and as the title says, it was done …
Final Destination 3 (2006)
The third and hopefully the last in the trilogy known as Final Destination. This time they go too far and make the movie too predictable. Whereas in the first movie, you can understand to some extent what happened after the boy had a premonition in the form of a …
Paycheck (2003)
This has got to be one of the only films that I have seen Ben Affleck play a character that was good in any sense. In this movie, he plays the role of an engineer who assists large corporations develop strategies to counter and rise above their competition, in …
300 (R, 2007) movie
I knew that I would like this film, even though I typically don’t get into fantasy psi-fi period films. However, the graphics and effects alone are great enough to warrant a viewing. Anyway, the Battle of Thermopylae is expertly executed in this intense fantasy-like film. …
Movie Gothika
This is one of my favorite movies. The first time watching it all my focus was on the movie. It was very entertaining to watch. It kept me watching throughout the whole thing wondering what’s happening next and scared a little. It also has a very good story to …
Arachnophobia movie
I was trying to find something to watch last night while sitting up with our youngest daughter and ended up putting on the movie Arachnophobia.
Big mistake. And, not because it is a horrible film; because it kept me up half the night thinking there were creepy crawlies on me.
I …
A Very Long Engagement Movie
This movie is a classic one that features a love story during the World War One. When I watched this I had a very melancholy feeling, sad and alone and isolated are what came to my mind during the time I was watching this, and you can’t help feeling …
Something To Talk About (movie)
Something To Talk About is a movie about relationships. And if you love horses, you will love the equestrian action in this film! Julia Roberts is Grace, a bored and well to do housewife who works at her family’s horse ranch. She and her husband, Eddie (Dennis Quaid), have …
The Ghost and the Darkness (DVD)
‘The Ghost and The Darkness’ is based on an amazing true story. In 1896, an Irish engineer named John Patterson, played by Val Kilmer, was sent by the British government to build a railway in East Africa. Leaving behind his pregnant wife, Patterson came to Tsavo; East Africa determined …
Bridesmaids (movie)
One fairly interesting movie that I watched in the early part of 2012 was the movie Bridesmaids. It starred a quite a few of Saturday Night Live’s most recent cast including one of my favourites who has been in other movies that I like, Maya Rudolf. I’m not the …
The Myth movie
This is one of my favorite Jackie Chan’s movie and in Chinese. This movie consisted of combination of ancient and modern China. The story is about Jacko (Jackie Chan) as an archeologist who get confused with his inner memories. He kept dreaming that he used to be a warrior …
Movie Car Wash
I like to watch movies from the past because it’s a way for me to step into another era, get lost there, walk around and leave with a dialect and mind set unlike what’s heard these days. Sometimes I become nostalgic of the 70’s, even though I wasn’t born …
The Illusionist (PG-13, 2006) movie
At first I thought that this movie was going to be like a rip-off of “The Prestige” which starred Christian Bale. But I am quite pleased to report that this movie has a similar storyline, but veers in an entirely different direction. Instead of concentrating fully on …
King Kong Movie
Newness, Love, Adventure, Thriller, a comedy and more. King Kong has a newness to an old flick with dinosaurs and all sorts of prehistoric animals.
Not the kind of love between a man and a woman…. OF COURSE NOT!!! But pretty darn close, meaning….. adoremement, respect, compassion and loyalty. …
G-Force movie
This movie is about guinnea pigs having the skills to be secret agents. As most of the ’superhero type’ movies, they are there to save the world from threat or destruction.
The movie is basically for kids. The main characters were presented in a ‘cute’ manner. The …
