I really need to stop adding films to my netflix list after a drink of wine. I must not be much of a drinker because every time I have a drink and do so a few weeks later I get some movie I do not ever remember hearing …

OK, I know I should like Jack Black. But, I just can�t seem to find any respect for him.
The problem I have is he�s one dimensional. He can�t do drama or action. It has to be comedy. Even when he tries to be serious, you can�t help but think …

When I came across the movie Soul Survivors in the Wal-mart clearance aisle, I had a faint memory of watching it at some point but couldn�t remember much about it. Normally, this tells me it isn�t a memorable movie, but because it was only $5 and had Eliza Dushku …

If ever that I could have a chance to say this to everyone in the world, find a book, do not watch.
Funny it is, ’cause the movie “Fog” was really trying hard to be classically sophisticated sci-fi. Well, no it isn’t. Though, the graphics was seemed great and modern …

Because we had rented the first Ghoulies movie this weekend, my wife and I decided we should watch the second one too. And, we did, despite the fact we hated the first movie.
The sequel is surprisingly better than the first one. But, that really shouldn’t be saying much because …

This is an Australian production filmed in the famous Mykonos island, in Greece. As long as you do not form high expectations about it in advance you might have some fun with it.
The plot itself is not a big deal. An Aussie of Greek origin inherits a big deal …

I am reviewing the movie, American History X, starring Edward Norton. This movie is about racism, hatred, forgiveness, and beliefs. Edward Norton plays Derek, a neo nazi who believes that all African Americans are trash, dirty, and trouble. He thinks that they are nothing but trouble, and …

After his masterpiece The draughtsman’s contract back in the early 1980s, the expectations on Peter Greenaway where enormous on my account. He created some very impressive pieces of work through the remaining 80s that included the puzzling Drowning by numbers and the macabre The cook, the thief, his wife …

The experience I had with this movie was the same I had with my previously watched movies based on Novels, which was out of the world. I don’t know why I found novel based movies so interesting and exciting. Perhaps, it’s because novel writers have some great skills to …

Robert Zemeckis, John Malkovich, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone. A pantheon of names builds this incredibly well recreated story of Beowulf based on the Norse legend of the same name.

Do you have so many toys that you do not know what to do with them when the time comes that you don’t want them anymore? Well, if you could watch this one great movie called Toy Story 3, you’ll have an idea what you could do with your …

Grindhouse had to be one of the most disappointing movies I have ever witnessed. This is not because the film was awful, just that it was (for lack of a better word) a firmly average film that did not really offer anything new to the horror genre. The idea …

This movie is weird and crazy. I personally think it’s funny in a way that I can’t believe Cillian Murphy did and accepted this role, and funny that someone would even think of Lucy Liu’s character here to be that crazy! The director must be crazy too to even …

I am reviewing the movie, The Exorcist, starring Jason Miller. Everyone knows what this movie is about, or regarding, so I’ll try to be brief on the summary. Jason Miller’s character, Damien Karras, is a priest who’s lost his faith. He has more interest in looking …

I watched this movie and will admit that it took a little while for me to start liking it at all. I thought that it was a little frivolous at first ,and all the way through as a matter of fact. Lindsey Lohan is an okay actress, but certainly …

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 …

This was a fun, entertaining comedy to watch and one I really enjoyed. I had never heard of it before when I found it on my library’s movie shelf, but it looked interesting so I checked it out. I’m glad I did, as it really is a gem.
Basically …

Ok, for the record, it’s a bit too early in the year for Christmas movies. For God’s sake, it isn’t even Thanksgiving yet. But, at least the Christmas movie I came across tonight, Deck the Halls, is funny.

Most of all, I like movies about how a business is created. That’s why I watched the movie The Founder with great interest. It seems that everyone knows the story of the great McDonald’s. Who Ray Kroc is and what year he met the McDonald brothers. Suddenly, it’s only a …

There are movies that make you say, “that was good.” There are movies that make you say, “wow.” However there are very few movies that make you say, “Wow, that was good.” That’s exactly what I said when I finished watching Live Free or Die Hard. The movie follows …

It did turn out to be a good movie but definitely …

The movie “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York” was the sequel and successor to one of the biggest hit movies of the 20th century, “Home Alone”. Of course, like many other sequels with very successful prequels, this movie didn’t do well as the first. Nevertheless, it was still …
