The Descent movie
Neil Marshall may have amassed a cult following with his previous horror effort “Dog Soldiers”, but with The Descent, he really hits his stride as a horror maestro in the makings.
Unlike his testosterone drenched werewolf vs. soldier movie, this time Marshall instead goes the all girl route; offering …

Open Water 2
This is a surprisingly good sequel. What made it good was how it diverged from the original. The main danger in Open Water was the ever present threat of shark attack. In Open Water 2, the writer and director cleverly play on the expectation …

Movie: Monster in the Closet
My wife and I were in the mood for a horror movie the other night but, since we both were kind of tired and wouldn’t enjoy some of the blockbusters we had at our disposal, we ended up watching something from the 1980s that we thought would be a …
Evolution Movie
Science Fiction comedy in the same category as Ghostbusters for example. A meteorite hits the earth and brings with it a strange new form of life that threatens to take over the planet, or does it?
There’s not much to say about this. If you liked Ghostbusters, Men in Black …

Interstellar, movie
As a big fan of science fiction with cosmic themes, I decided to watch Interstellar despite the busy exam period. In the end, the movie absolutely worth the ticket price. If you are also a big fan of science fiction, do not read my review anymore and go watch …
Masters of Horror Series:Homecoming

Columbo: No Time to Die movie
There were a string of these Columbo movies that really just didn’t quite cut the mustard for me, and this was one of them. I’m not sure what the problem was. Perhaps it’s the lack of star power, that really charismatic murderer that grabbed your attention and …
Kung Fu Panda (2008)
I brought Eeyan and Natasha, my 2 cute nephew and niece, respectively to watch Kung Fu Panda (2008). It was real super fun and we had a great time. The thing was that I was supposed to go with my date on that day, this 26 year …

Divergent was one of those movies that I found really didn’t stand out enough for me to notice it at the time that it was released. I decided to watch it after several people told me it was a good science fiction movie even though I had my doubts about …
Happy Feet Movie
My one year old daughter absolutely loves this movie. We have the DVD and I believe we have watched this movie atleast twenty times. She adores the dancing and singing and gets the happy feet herself as she dances non stop to the musicals. I myself love the humor …
Music Box
Only Laurel and Hardy could take a premise like delivering a piano to someone’s home and turn it into a forty-five minute film. It would take stars of their comedic stature to pull it off, and they do it nicely. Stan and Ollie are deliverymen. They are hired by …
Keeping the Faith (2000, Edward Norton)
I found this film really enjoyable, and a tearjerker too.
And in my humble opinion, a much better romantic comedy than a lot of Stiller’s recent outings - e.g. Along Came Polly, Meet the Fockers etc.
Ben Stiller and Ed Norton play a Rabbi and a Priest respectively. They are …
Bordertown (R, 2007) movie
I don’t usually like J. Lo in films. But where this movie is concerned, I could easily overlook her mediocre acting skills. This movie follows the political red tape surrounding the investigations of hundreds of Mexican women near the U.S. Border. According to the …
Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective
I really enjoyed Disney’s The Great Mouse Detective. This was a really cool movie. And sine I love Mice to much, it was no wonder I was going to like this movie so much. The movie is kind of like Sherlock Homles but in cartoon forum. And Instead of humans …
Ghost Ship
Oh my God, that was a great movie. I haven’t seen Ghost Ship in ages and finally got a chance to watch it late last night.
My wife hates this movie even though she usually likes horror films. The whole thing, which is about a shipwreck that is discovered and …
Gone Girl (psychological thriller movie)
Gone Girl certainly was not at the top of my list of movies to watch since I heard that the actors Tyler Perry and Ben Affleck would be playing a major role in it. For one it sounded like a terrible combination because I’ve always thought that Ben Affleck came …

Sumuru movie
Sumuru isn’t an A-movie. It’s not really even a B-movie. I actually liken Sumuru to a Patrick Swayze movie called Skatetown USA. Both are so bad that they are oddly enticing and fun to watch. Sumuru’s main attraction is its star, Michael Shanks, who plays …
Charlie Wilson’s War (2007)
“Charlie Wilson’s War” opened in my local theatre this weekend. I went to a matinee and enjoyed it very much. The movie tells the story of Texas Congressman Charlie Wilson and his efforts to finance covert operations in Afghanistan to help defeat the Soviets who had invaded. The movie …
Movie The Incredibles
Brad Bird’s Pixar movie the Incredibles, released in 2004, is my favorite Pixar movie ever, and one of my all time favorites in any genre. The Incredibles mixes the best of superhero movies, spy capers, and family films. It has heart, excitement, humor, action, suspense and a …

Movie 2012
I liked this movie. It’s another movie from Roland Emmerich, which I consider to be the master of disaster movies the likes of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow. Apparently, he produced and directed this film for Columbia Pictures, which is of course owned by the …
Premonition
Premonition is one of those strange movies that nearly everyone hated, yet I really liked. I wouldn’t say that it’s one of my favorite movies, but I liked it enough to buy it. Unlike other movies where you have a hard time believing that the two leads are interested …
Gladiator movie
I wasn’t expecting to enjoy Gladiator at all, but the intensity of the drama can’t be ignored. In short, this is a movie about a much respected general to Marcus Aurelius, the emperor of Rome, who is then condemned to execution by the emperor’s son, Commodus. The …
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

The Runaway Bride,1999 movie

The Canterville Ghost (movie)
I’ve always been fairly fascinated with the actress Neve Campbell, especially after I saw her in movies such as the “Scream” franchise and “The Craft”. She seemed to be a familiar face in the late nineties to the early 2000s, and I know believe some of that had to …

Yankee Doodle Goes to Town movie short
I actually just stumbled upon this movie short from 1939 while looking for something to watch on television. It’s called Yankee Doodle Goes to Town, and it’s definitely a pro-America, pro-democracy creation. It’s theme is that America continues to rise up, to defeat its foes, and that …
