The Pacifier movie
Yesterday night I watched this movie, first time I thought that it just ordinary saving mission or something like that. But its got more interesting in the middle of the movie, when the main actor (Vin Diesel) as Shane have mission to save some important program made by some …
Murder by Numbers Movie
Murder by Numbers starring Sandra Bullock was worth watching once, but I just could not bare sitting through the movie a second time. The movie takes a fascinating look at a homicide detective struggling with her own demons as she attempts to solve a seemingly perfect murder plot. The …
Harry potter
Harry potter is the movie, which my 3 years old son has liked a lot. I had been to the theatre with my little son and my husband 2 weeks back. The action in the movie is very good and the comedy is excellent. The costume …
The movie Friday
The movie Friday is a freaking hilarious movie and made me laugh so hard. The beginning of the movie is kind of boring though and the first 20 minutes of the movie sucks to be honest but after that it starts to become real funny. From the beginning of …
Curse of Frankenstein
I have seen almost every Frankenstein movie ever made and have to say, after seeing Curse of Frankenstein, I’m convinced Christopher Lee is the best at playing the classic literary monster (sorry Boris Karloff).
Made in the 1950s, The Curse of Frankenstein actually focuses more on Victor Frankenstein (played by …
Vantage Point (Movie)
Vantage Point was a lot better than I was expecting. I had read some less than stellar reviews about the movie both online and in print, and I also had a lot of friends who were disappointed by it. Since I’m a big fan of Dennis Quaid though I …

Unrest (R, 2006) movie
This horror film is part of an 8-film Horrorfest (festival) and I must admit that it was part corny/part “good”. A group of medical students working on a set of cadavers discover that one of them is not actually “dead.” Of course there is a stream …

HOUSE OF WAX REMAKE movie
Umm. Yuck.
I was lucky enough to see the 1981 rerelease of Vincent Price’s original House of Wax in 3-D in theaters and it was a visual treat.
And Price make an incredibly menacing villian. In this tedious, overlong box office dud, we get quite the incredibly
unerotic Paris Hilton deliver the …
Rambo, First Blood
They attempted a couple of sequels for the movie Rambo, First Blood, but they have never managed to copy what became a classic film and one I absolutely love.
The great thing about this movie, which features a Vietnam War Veteran who holds a town hostage after a run in …
Disturbia
Shia LaBeouf starreer Disturbia is a really well directed thriller movie. I recently watched the movie on DVD and I must say I loved it very much. The movie had all the elements in a right mixture and this makes it a very good thriller movie. The best thing …

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. …
A Beautiful Mind (2001 movie)
Russell Crowe plays John Nash, a brilliant mathematician with a destructive mind. Based on actual events on the life and times of John Nash, this movie tells the tale of what it was like to have the condition on a daily basis with and without the use of medication. …
Fools Rush In
“Fools Rush In” represents the big leaps from the small screen to the big screen for Matthew Perry. I feel that his interpretation of his part in this movie helped him get more important parts such as “The Whole Nine Yards” role. Perry was so excited by it all, …
Alice in Wonderland (2010)
I assumed that Alice in Wonderland would be very interesting because Tim Burton was a part of it. I thought the visuals would be wonderful and the story a bit on the darker side. I never went to see the movie in the theaters, but already I was hearing …
Friday the 13th Boxed Set
When I heard that they were releasing a boxed set of the Friday the 13th movies, I felt a little thrill of excitement. These are the movies I grew up watching, and while Nightmare on Elm Street got its own treatment years ago, Friday the 13th was still bringing …

Hannibal Rising (R, 2007) movie
If you like Hannibal Lechter, you will love this film. In a really in depth look at how Hannibal grew to become so vile, cunning, and deadly, this movie begins with his childhood. The film then follows him quickly through adolescence, and up to young adulthood. …
Diamonds are Forever, movie
Picking up where “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” leaves off, “Diamonds are Forever” is one of the weaker Bond movies in the series and a personal low for Sean Connery. It’s a shame that the original James Bond returned for this one as he should have left the franchise …
The Man in the Iron Mask
I infer the story behind the man in the iron mask is so interesting that it made it to the big screen multiple times. This one version I watched at least made me think so. I had a good time watching this version directed by Randall Wallace; …
When Love Begins movie
Last year 2008 my girlfriend asked me to join her in watching When Love Begins. I knew that it was going to be another chick-flick, feel-good movie wherein you have a fairy tale ending. But being the nice boyfriend that I was, not to mention sweet, I agreed. Turns out …

House:Fidelity
Last night was probably the third time I’ve watched the House episode Fidelity. But, I can’t help by still enjoy every moment of it.
The medical case in this episode actually isn’t anything overly impressive. A woman has all the symptoms of depression but doesn’t have that. And, her sleeping …

The Wiz movie
This might be an old movie, but it is probably one of my absolute faaaavorites of all time! I have watched this movie at LEAST once a year since I was born, probably.
For anyone who does not know what the Wiz is, it is essentially the Wizard …
Streets of Fire
Streets of Fire with Rick Moranis, Willem Dafoe, Diane Lane, Michael Pare, and Amy Madigan.

The Gift - Psychological Thriller Movie (2015)
I watched the movie, The Gift, because of its interesting trailer and it seemed to be on the cusp of horror (I’m a big fan of horror). I didn’t expect to be extremely impressed by the movie but nearly two hours later, I was definitely satisfied. The Gift is more …

Introduction
I have been a fan of Eddie Izzard from the beginning. Recently, I got given his latest live DVD called ’stripped’ and he is still one of the funniest comedians out there.
The Show
If you have seen an Eddie Izzard performance before then it is fair to say that you …
Guru (movie)
I had recently watched the movie Guru (Hindi Version) directed by the veteran director Manirathnam. I normally don’t have patience to watch any movie till the end. But this movie made me sit for the entire 2.5 hrs. The story is about how a normal villager becomes a business …
Movie: Castle of the Walking Dead
A few days ago, I was looking at new movies available for watch on our Netflix Instant Watch service and came across an older movie called Castle of the Walking Dead.
I had never heard of this movie before. But, it had Christopher Lee in it and sounded somewhat interesting …
The Invention of Lying
I was expecting The Invention of Lying to be a romantic comedy, and only a decent one, because while I love Ricky Gervais, I do not enjoy the movies which Jennifer Garner does. I figured Gervais’ wonderful, sarcastic, dry, British humour would carry this movie. While Gervais was great, …
Paul - Unrated (2011) - Movie
Oh, how I wanted to like this movie! It’s got an impressive cast, including Simon Pegg, Kristin Wiig, Jane Lynch, Jeffrey Tambor, Jason Bateman, even a cameo by Steven Spielberg! Casting Seth Rogen as the wise-cracking alien wasn’t my problem though. I felt that this was …
Movie Firewall
I bought this movie a while back and I am glad I did. It was really good. It’s kind of long but it’s good. There is some action in the movie but the whole movie isn’t full of action. All of the actors do an amazing job in the …
Alvin and the Chipmunks
IF you want to see a really cute movie, you need to see “Alvin and the Chipmunks”. It is such a cute movie.
I think there are many reasons why I like this movie so much. The first reason is that I grew up with Alvin, Simon and …
BlockBuster Video in Westford MA
Blockbuster in Westford is a very good place to rent your movies at. I liked going to this particular blockbuster because of the neatness, size, customer service and the fact that the movie I always wanted to get was always in, no matter what.
When you pull into Blockbuster you …
16 Blocks
I’m tired this morning. I had hoped to go to bed at a decent hour last night but then the movie 16 Blocks came on television. My wife and I started watching it and had intended to turn it off early; figuring it would be on again another day. …
Shaolin Soccer movie
I’m not really much of a sports movie fan. I don’t really like “Remember the Titans”. I didn’t even watch “Invincible”. I was never interested in watching “Rudy”. The only sports movie I really really loved was “D2: The Mighty Ducks”. Then along came “Shaolin Soccer”. This comedic masterpiece …
The Town Movie (2010)
There were a lot of action flicks at the theatre and they featured this one; we were late for Bruce Willis’ movie Red so we watched this one instead but I was so surprised to find myself enjoying this. It’s a simple action movie which features Ben Affleck, …
Premonotion
This was a very good movie. I was interested throughout the whole movie. I loved it and would like to buy this movie some day. Sandra Bullock plays the main character and she does an amazing job. Even though it goes back and forth a lot in the movie …
It Follows Movie (2015)
As a fan and frequent watcher of horror films, I was naturally looking forward to this film. As I passed the theater last night, I was stopped in my tracks by the flyer itself. It was an extremely well executed throwback to 1980s campy, horror film posters and it immediately …
10,000 B.C.
I am very upset with this movie for a lot of reasons. It was one not depicted in that time by any since of the word and all the so called actors were speaking perfect English. I don’t see how this could have gotten even a decent rating for …
The Miracle of Sound
You never know what you are going to get when you watch a classic film short. The purposes behind these productions, which last anywhere from just a few minutes to a half-hour or so, is varied. The one I watched this evening is from 1940 and is …
