Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
I am of the opinion that this movie is one of the greatest drug stories ever told. Johnny Depp and Benicio DelToro star in Terry Gilliam’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s cult novel. The movie opens with the two lead characters Raoul Duke (Depp) and his attorney (Del Toro), …
A Little Princess Movie
The first time I saw this movie, I was just flipping through the channels and found this strange little movie on HBO. I sat and watched the whole movie, just on a whim. It turned out to be a cute little movie. A sad but uplifting story of a …
Eagle Eye
I just finished watching the movie Eagle Eye few days ago. I got the DVD from a friend of mine who told me it’s quite a good movie. After watching the movie, I must say I am not very impressed with it.
The story started in the Middle East region …

Black Christmas, movie (1974)
Slasher movies based on holidays are so commonplace that they have become cliched. Thankskilling, April Fool’s Day, Halloween, Leprechaun, Uncle Sam, and My Bloody Valentine are some of the big examples. All we need are movies for Yom Kippur and Colombus Day. Heck, some can make …
Click movie

A new project is assigned to him, very urgent and very important, and Michael must choose once again between his family and his work. Work wins; Michael cancels the long-awaited camping …
Summer School
In the year 2000 we have “High School Musical” but in the 80’s they used to have “Summer School”. It seems really funny to compare these two movies with each other because they represent two different generations and two different ways of making teen movie.
In “High School Musical” we …

The Heatbreak Kid (movie)
We saw a movie at the Arundel Mills Mall theaters last autumn. If you are ever in the Baltimore Area, Arundel Mills Movico is one of the best theaters to view movies within this area.

The Lake House Movie
Trying to describe this movie is difficult because the “science” of it detracts from its warmth and the beauty of the love story between two people who had to be together in spite of the impossibilty of it. I watch it often and never tire of it.
A quirk in the …
The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things (R, 2006)
Those who have become familiar with the acting (and now directing) style of Asia Argento will more than likely love this film. The daughter of Italian film director Dario Argento is known for her stint in the American action cheese puff 2002 film “XXX” (starring Vin Diesel.) …
Looney Tunes Back in Action
Normally, if there’s a movie that features cartoon characters talking to real actors, I’m not a huge fan.
Not that movies like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Space Jam didn’t have their moments; they just were a bit too corny for my tastes.
Looney Tunes Back in Action still fits that …
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Hardly expected because one of the leading characters ,who is in fact Jim Carey,this movie is very good,presenting a dramatic story out of a marvelous idea.The story starts with the two main characters,Joel Barish and Clementine.Joel is a passive,shy guy that is living a dull and nostalgic existence,day …
9 to 5 (1980)
Three woman gang together to over throw their abusive boss that is the whole nature of this movie, the plot is tight around this fact and it makes for a wonderful movie for all to enjoy. Dolly Parton plays the role of the under appreciated secretary, one that has …
Feature Film “The Reaping”
I first saw this film when it came on tv. The subject seemed interesting and although I am not a Hillary Swank fan in any way I decided to give it a try because the plot sounded really different. Hillary plays a woman who was once a …
Goblet of Fire
I am reviewing the Harry Potter movie, Goblet of Fire. Goblet of Fire is number four in the series. The whole movie revolves around a Triwizarding tournament, which Harry gets volunteered in to. Along the way, we meet a new character: Mad Eye Moody. We find out all sorts …
Movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall
This is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a while. It’s about this guy who his girlfriend dumps him and he ends up going to Hawaii, and his girlfriend ends up being there with her new boyfriend at the same time.
I thought it was overall …
The Truth about Cats & Dogs
I must say that I don’t like much watching Uma Thurman movies. She chooses to bring to big screen such bizarre characters. “The Truth about Cats & Dogs” is the only movie where I truly like her interpretation because it fits so well with the script of this movie. …
Pet Sematary
Pet Sematary is s very scary movie. I think this is one of Stephen King’s best movies ever made to date. The thing that was scary about this movie was that is had lots of things to do with death and ghosts. I also think that the movie was scary …
Blood for Dracula
I have to say, I never really understood the fuss over Andy Warhol movies. I saw the film Blood for Dracula the other night. While the movie sounded good in the description (Dracula is growing old and needs virgin blood to survive); the movie itself was actually one of …
Last Holiday (2006)
Last Holiday, directed by Wayne Wang is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for some sexual reference. The original release date was January 13, 2006 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Adventure/Comedy/Drama and stars Queen Latifah as Georgia Byrd, LL Cool …
North by Northwest movie
Perhaps the most famous and beloved of all Hitchcock’s films, made in a time when his artistic vision and innovative genius was at its absolute peak. The theme is very similar to all of his films: a man is mistaken for someone else and has to run away from …
Borrowed Hearts
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 …
The Other (PG, 1972) movie
“The Other” is a very old film that a friend of mine told me about. It involves a little boy with a “twin” living in Sweden. What I liked about the movie is its “Wicker Man” (original) feel. The foreign land does that for the viewer. …
Ghost Hunt (anime)
Ghost Hunt is a really interesting anime about the supernatural phenomenon of ghosts and exorcisms. I liked how there are many different “professional exorcists” who come to make up the team. I also liked how the different cases are more than one episode. I thought that …
Last Vegas (2013 Film)
Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …
Gidget’s Summer Reunion
Over a decade since we’d last seen Gidget Lawrence, she returns in Gidget’s Summer Reunion, a 1985 made-for-TV movie. The latest Gidget is Caryn Richmond, and she made a great Gidget. She takes on more of the Karen Valentine style of Gidget, a woman who has grown …
The Body Guard movie
This is one of my favorite movie by Whitney Houston and Bruce Willis. I really enjoyed watching this movie since the story line was simple yet meaningful. I love how it was made into a drama-action film. I am a fan of Whitney Houston as a singer and I …
Sex and the City the movie
I am the fan from Sex and the city TV serial. I always watch it every season and never nissed it. When it will be making in movie, I’m happy because it’s been four years those serial is ended.
Like the serials, sex and the city the movie still starred …
Regal Natomas Marketplace 16 Theater Sacramento, CA
Regal Natomas Marketplace 16 is the only theater near my house. Its located right on the boarder of a bad neighborhood. I would never go to this theater at night by myself. There is a rough crowd that hangs around it a night. The theaters always smell really bad, …
The Last Shot (2004)
Let us talk about a movie that falls under the category of a complete ‘miss’. This movie stars some of the best actors in Hollywood like Alec Baldwin, Matthew Broderick, Tony Shaloub, Ray Liotta, Toni Collette and even Eric Roberts, but even though it had these people in the …
Firefly
I am an ardent fan of Joss Whedon’s television shows, I have been a fan ever since the start of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and loved every moment of Buffyverse, till the story came to a dramatic conclusion in the Buffy spin-off, Angel.
Disappointed at the thought of not …
Transformers The Movie
The series which this movie is based on is undeniably one of my all-time favorites since I was a kid. Now that Michael Bay together with Steven Spielberg made Transformers into an extraordinarily amazing movie, my interest in Sci-Fi movies has broadened into such great fascination that I became …
Footloose (1984)
This movie is very simple and straight forward, it tells the story of a teenager, played by Kevin Bacon, who moves to a small town and has to basically adapt to their dull and dreary way of life that does not include ‘rock music and dancing’. Now that their …
Pollock movie
Pollock is another movie about a real artist, Jackson Pollock. Pollock is the real deal and evidently Jackson Pollock was no peach. I was rather horrified by this movie, and it was very haunting. Jackson Pollock was an important American artist whose style was like no other. In Pollock, …
Comedy; Kenn Kington; I am Dad
I purchased a comedy DVD called “I Am Dad.” It cost me about 10.00+tax. This DVD is a brilliant combination of comedy and reality, presented by the stylings of comedian Kenn Kington. The DVD is a crown comedy presentation, and is chuck full of the most …
D-x wrestling faction
D-Generation X was a professional wrestling faction bought in by the World Wrestling Federation to rival the New World Order which was running rampant on the WWF’s Rival, World Championship Wrestling.
One thing that made the original D-X so unique and popular was their lack of respect for anything …
I.Q.
Remember the movie by Meg Ryan, I.Q.? Well, I truly love this movie I.Q. as it is very awesome and something wonderful to watch. Meg plays the wonderful and sweet Catherine Boyd and it happens so in this story that she is Albert Einstein’s niece and the not …
Happy Feet Movie

Barney CD
This cd is from the Hit TV series. In this cd the new character BJ is introduced for the first time. He is yellow all over, has purple spots, a bright green tummy and red sneakers, Barney’s new dinosaur friend. Everyone of us have some …
Howl’s moving Castle
Hayao Miyazaki’s follow up to the much acclaimed ‘Spirited Away’ is another masterpiece of animation. This film in no ways pushes the boundaries of animation and doesn’t attempt to which is refreshing. Too many modern animation films concentrate on wonderful computer affect to the detriment of the …
Memoirs of a Geisha
Rob Marshall turned a New York Times’ Bestseller into a Hollywood box office hit. I have to admit though, it’s not a film I would want to watch over and over again. It’s brilliant. Emotional. Deep. That said, it’s kind of depressing despite the ending. The entire film has …
The Rocky Horror Picture Show movie
Rocky Horror Picture Show is another cult classic movie that everyone loves to watch and everyone loves to dance and sing to! It used to be that movie theaters around the country would show the Rocky Horror Picture Show and the audience would shout out the characters lines …
Boo
There are quite lots of movies out there having pranks gone wrong, and the story plot of Boo is something like that.
The illustration cover DVD also looked kind of tempting the first time I saw and I had a feeling it was going to be a good story …
Kama Sutra movie
My wife and I are always looking for ways to keep the spark in our love life lit. This includes watching “instructional” videos and learning new techniques in the bedroom.
Since she went to bed early last night, I decided to check out one I could load on my netflix …
Confessions of a Shopaholic
I usually like a movie I could somehow relate into. However, “Confessions of a Shopaholic” is one of those movies that I liked but could not really much relate to myself. It is about a woman who has a passion for shopping, which I don’t.
Being into shopping entails …
The Trojan War movie
When I first read the description for the Trojan War I thought it was going to be a dumb movie. In fact, the only reason I even decided to watch it is it was too early to go to bed and there was nothing else on.
After watching it, I …
Blood: The Last Vampire
I watched Blood: The Last Vampire recently and it is such a good movie. Saya is this kind-heart half vampire and half human girl and she has a mission. Which is to kill Onigen, this very evil one of a kind type of vampire. Even though Saya …
