An underrated piece from John Carpenter, made between Halloween and Escape from New York. The story, that involves a fog attacking people in a small coast town in America, may be a little bit mundane, but the way Carpenter creates moods and scare his audience here is simply top …

MosquitoMan (2004)
This movie was much better than I expected it to be. Don’t let the corny name or the image on the DVD case’s cover stop you from watching this fun horror film. And if you’re thinking it’s a bit similar to “The Fly”, you’re right. It’s a more modern …

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010 Film)
The 2010 film “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was one in which I was leery about. Recently Nicholas Cage’s films have been sort of a letdown, but not this one. His co-star Jay Baruchel has a quirky sort of scholarly charm that makes him the perfect hero of our film. We …
Roman Holiday movie
Like the Prince and me that’s similar to the 1950’s classic a Roman Holiday, this time it’s guy meets princess. Starring Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck, two of the greatest actors of the 20th century and two of the greatest screen couples in film history.
Audrey Hepburn as princess Ann …
Escape To Witch Mountain
Another cherished Disney memory from the 70s, I was thrilled when it became available on DVD. Escape to Witch Mountain is the tale of aliens who crashland on Earth. Survivors of the tragedy found refuge on what the surrounding community called Witch Mountain, because of the strange goings-on there.
Tia …

Alien Quadrilogy movie
The Alien saga is one of the finest and most enduring film series’ out there, and certainly one of the finest science fiction series’ out there. The legendary Ellen Ripley provides us with one of the strongest female characters of all time and once again, definitely a stand out …
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice movie
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, released in 2010, starts out a bit surprisingly in my mind by giving what is essentially a recap of the history of Merlin. I understand it because it is the exposition that really explains what the movie is going to be about, which is Balthazar …
Have You Seen My Son movie
From 1996, Lisa Hartman Black produced and starred in Have You Seen My Son, a movie about parental child abduction. Her co-star was the handsome Jameson Parker who plays good guys with charm and bad guys with aloofness. Here, he was aloof and maybe still a little …
Battle Warrior Movie
Warning to all you Tony Jaa fans out there, don’t waste your time with this movie! I ended up making the mistake of buying this movie. The packaging of the 2 disc collector’s edition is pretty slick. It has Tony’s face on the front with his …
Drake & Josh Go Hollywood
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, …
The film The Secret
I found this “The Secret” to be quite ridiculous, a tad boring, and totally unrealistic. This “movie” generated much hype a couple of years ago and, like most, I fell for it all and ran out to rent it. BIG mistake. It spends two agonizing hours …
Netflix
A few years ago I was a bit reluctant to change my normal “video store stop” routine to try a “by mail” service. However after a family member suggested giving it a try during a free trial period, I was instantly hooked! I never thought that …

Tropic Thunder
I watched Tropic Thunder the first day that it was released and it was such an enjoyable, funny and out of this world hilarious type of movie. Ben Stiller rocks! as a Director and I give him two thumbs up, without thinking for a second.
Call me biased or what, …
Robots Movie
This creative and somewhat inspiring computer animated story would have been better without certain types of humor. As I’ve already said in my review of both Shreks, farting, in my opinion, is not funny but disgusting, and shouldn’t be on the screen. As to the story itself, it’s all …
Vampires Suck (Movie)
I’m so sick of Twilight and every other vampire detective-lost boy-romantic in a virtual quest to woo the girl and get his soul back that I could hurl. So naturally, when I heard about ‘Vampires Suck’, a Twilight spoof, I had to go see it. Initially I had somewhat …
Enchanted movie
Enchanted is an attracting and unique movie with a brilliant idea to combine cartoon and real world. It is not a movie about Bugs Bunny and Brendan Fraser while they act in the same scene (Looney Tunes:Back in Action) but about a hole where every cartoon who enters …
Hoodwinked movie
When I first saw the previews for Hoodwinked on television I thought it would be a lousy film. But, after giving it a try, I now feel it is a movie I would be glad to add to my collection.
Giving “The Other Story” to the Little Red Riding Hood …

Based on the 1960 film of the same title and directed by acclaimed director of such films as Traffic and Erin Brockovich, Steven Soderbergh, Ocean’s Eleven is a cool hi-tech comedy. Starring some of Hollywood’s most popular actors, it’s the story of Danny Ocean (George Clooney), a newly released …
Movie The Candidate
“What do we do now?”
It’s a simple question, but it’s a chilling one when asked by Bill McKay in The Candidate. McKay is played brilliantly by Robert Redford. He’s a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate. He’s idealistic, and he doesn’t believe in making deals. …
Toy Story 3
For those of you that grew up with the magic of Pixar, you most definitely know of the many adventures of toy legends, Woody the cowboy and Buzz Lightyear, the space ranger and all their companions. I speak of the first ever Pixar computer generated animation film, Toy Story.

The Coffin
I think The Ring is more scarier than The Coffin. I can’t help to comment how disappointed I was at watching this movie and I guess I was so much hoping for it to be a real scary flick. But it turned out to be an emotional movie …

Fast & Furious (4)
Since I’ve watched all the previous installments of Fast And Furious, I knew what to expect from the fourth part. And I was not disappointed. The best thing about this part is Vin Diesel and Paul Walker back together. This could easily be the follow up for the …
OLDBOY (2003) - Film
Before watching this film I knew nothing about it other than its name, and the fact it had won a bunch of awards. I saw the film’s poster, which although quite cool, didn’t make me want to watch the film itself. It was a good few years after its …
Bee Movie
I’ve watched Bee Movie several times and still consider it to be a fairly well made movie. In some ways it is as it appears to be, a very family directed movie but I think most people would find themselves entertained despite whatever ago group they belong to. Jerry …
Clash of the Titans Movie (2010)
This movie is more of like a Percy Jackson movie that is for adults, when I saw this I had thought to myself that this seemed more like the movie for my age range, which is mid-twenties, and I had really liked the effects and the cinematography of this …
Vicky, Christina, Barcelona
I watched ‘Vicky, Christina, Barcelona’ last night and could certainly see glimmerings of Woody Allen’s philosophical depth and cynicism in the interactions between the three lead roles - Vicky, Christina and Juan.
The locales in Spain are beautifully shot and I like the narrative style of the film. The threesome …
