Movie Mrs Winterbourne
I was flipping through the cable channels last night and I ran across a movie that I had not seen in a long time. It was called Mrs Winterbourne and it starred Brandon Fraser, Ricki Lake.
Mrs Winterbourne was about a case of mistaken identiy that goes too …
King Arthur (2004)
This is a rather interesting, fresh look at the story of King Arthur. Most of us have probably heard the legends: Arthur, Lancelot, the Round Table, the Excalibur sword stuck in the stone, Merlin the wizard. This movie contains all those elements, but, rather than just retelling the legend, …
Thor: Movie
Thor is a movie I went into with some pessimism, but came out pleasantly surprised and see it as one of my favourite movies of 2011.
Another comic-book adaption, I thought Thor’s story was very well developed and can be seen as an entertaining viewing for children and adults alike.
Firstly, …
Just Friends comedy
The first time I watched the “Just Friends” Dvd, I was nearly in tears. I love this movie. The actors play their roles so well, that the viewer is fully capable of feeling sympathy, embarrassment, anger, joy, ect for all of the characters. I can’t begin to recall the …
The Book Thief (2014 war movie)
I like watching movies and documentaries about people’s lives in World War II because it was a dark period of time in human history and there are many interesting stories to be told. Therefore, when I saw the trailer for the movie “The Book Thief”, I definitely wanted to see …
Mr. Woodcock
“Mr Woodcock” is a good comic movie; however I personally would have preferred that the main part went to a different actor rather than Billy Bob Thornton. In this movie, Thornton tried to interpret “Mr Woodcock” to his best of abilities, however while watching this film I couldn’t help …
Two Brothers movie
Two Brothers is a movie aimed at children that is also very good for adults. The plot is relatively simple — it follows the lives of two tiger cubs as they grow up in captivity. The two cubs are brothers, born of the same mother, who live …
Stargate
Stargate was released in 1994 and it launched a franchise. Kurt Russell starred as Colonel Jonathan ‘Jack’ O’Neil. I have to make sure that’s spelled correctly. This is the single ‘L’ O’Neil, versus the TV series Jack O’Neill, which has two ‘L’s’ and was played by …
Kingsman: The Secret Service
‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ is an action comedy film. It’s a film that has been done extremely well and it was truly a treat to have been able to watch it in theatres. There’s enough action and comedy in the movie to ensure that boredom doesn’t set it. The storyline …
No Smoking Movie
I checked out “No Smoking” first day, first show with big expectation from a promising star cast and a promising director. I don’t no what went wrong with director Anurag Kashyap for making such a bad movie.
The story, what should I say, is baseless. Even after two hours …
My Fair Lady: A Film by George Cukor (1964)
My Fair Lady is definitely one of the best Audrey Hepburn films to date. I’m not enthralled by the designer, Ralph Lauren and his bygone collection inspired from this musical film. But it aroused my interest to watch it anyway. All its posters in Technicolor suggested …
Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone
Well, first off, Evangelion 1.0: You Are Not Alone is part of the popular anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is part of a 4 movie project to reboot the series, shaping the storyline to be easier understood by mainstream audience, as well as adding new characters and the …
Valkyrie movie
Valkyrie is a film in relation to the rise and fall of Hitler and Germany. The movie could be interesting or emotional for those that were a part of the Hitler movement. If you were a part of that you might feel somewhat emotional or offended by reliving the …
Ever After DVD
I love movies, I like sitting in my den with the fire place on and watching a good movie. I don’t even care if they are old ones. Another of the actresses that I enjoy is Drew Barrymore, I watched a movie with her in it over …
Steal This Film II
Digital “piracy” has been around for a while now, and it is a movement that is growing every day. There have been quite a few documentaries made about the phenomenon, one of those just happens to be Steal This Film II. It isn’t specifically about file sharing …
The Jungle Book movie
You know, I have seen the live action version of the movie The Jungle Book but this past weekend was the first time I’ve seen the cartoon version. After finally getting a chance to watch it (with my daughter) I have to say I liked the live version better.
This …
Nicholas Nickleby Movie
“Nicholas Nickleby” starring Charlie Hunnam is a fairly decent adaptation of Charles Dickens’s novel, although a lot has been left out due to time constraints. Mini-series work much better to translate Dickens’s 800-900 pages long masterpieces to the screen.
Charlie Hunnam plays the 18 year old Nicholas, a young man …
Spider-man: Homecoming - (Movie 2017)
It almost seems every few years we have a new Spider-man franchise. While I’m definitely a fan of the days where Toby Maguire graced the screens as Peter Parker/Spider-man, Spider-man: Homecoming took me to a more refreshing look at Spider-man himself.
The Spider-man franchise starring Maguire and …
Dead Silence (2007)
If you’re in the mood for some mindless scares, the recently released “Dead Silence” might be a good choice for you. I, however, find it too gory and frightening, and having no deeper message than “Boo!!” is, for me, a big turn-off.
The story is about a dead ventriloquist (performer …
White Chicks (2004)
White Chicks, directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for crude and sexual humor, language and some drug content. The original release date was June 23, 2004 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Comedy/Crime and stars …

The Avengers movie
In a somehow original yet cliche kind of way, The Avengers is one of the best movies of the year and easily the most entertaining. However this action thriller does not come out perfectly, a lot of small flaws make this only a good action movie and not a …
New In Town (starring Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr.)
I would say watch this movie, New In Town (starring Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr.) if you want a dosage of humility, some form of morality watch. This movie is something that I truly praise and it has such compassion, feelings and heart. To make this kind …
In The Mouth of Madness Movie
I didn’t think that there would be a movie that would be able to scare me, but this does not apply if that movie is made by the famous director John Carpenter (”Halloween”). In the case I experienced this on me, after I decided to watch his grim film …
Untraceable
Everyone I know uses the Internet so I can understand how it can become an obsession. So, when I picked up the movie Untraceable, about a Web site that feeds off viewer ship and murders people, I really could relate.
What made the movie Untraceable believable is the fact everything …
Hot chick movie
‘Hot chick’ is an English movie. It is a very funny movie. Rob Scheneider is the main role in the movie and his is a great performance. Anybody can feel like laughing when they see this movie. Rob’s role is that of a thief. This thief is not a …
Movie: Avatar
I didn’t get an opportunity to watch the movie Avatar at the theater and finally got a chance to watch it on DVD this past weekend. At the time we rented it, I figured it would be good but wouldn’t live up to all the hype. I was wrong. It …
Yes Man Movie
This is one of the many movies I have seen in the theaters, which is the best place to watch really good inspirational movies. That’s what this movie did for me- it inspired me. After watching this movie, I realized all the things I’ve never done and all the …
Hitman (2007)
Timothy Olyphant plays the character of a “Hitman” who goes by the name “Agent 47″. Ok, here is the thing about this movie/game made into a movie…for people who like a good action, adventure, mystery, suspense, drama/romance thrown in here and there or even an on the edge of …
Dead of Night movie
An early sound horror film divided in several episodes, directed by different people. These are stories told by a bunch of people who meet in the beginning of the film. They are all supernatural in some sense. Most of these episodes are quite mediocre and doesn’t interest me a …

Hang Em High
If you like Clint Eastwood’s western movies then you will like Hang Em High. It is one of his older westerns and is a very good movie to watch. We have several westerns in our library but this one is one of our favorites. It has alot of action, …
The Other Sister (movie)
The Other Sister is a movie that my family loves. The Other Sister is the story of a mentally challenged young woman who is way under her mother’s thumbs, yes both of them! Her mother, played so well by Diane Keaton, wants to protect Carla, but is really stifling …
Under the Skin (2013 movie)
I find that with mainstream movies there’s very little to talk about. I usually get information from the culture and arts section of many a magazine or newspaper and shy away from the hype. People continue to brood over the movie Under the Skin, despite that it …

Black, Hindi movie
Casting:
Amitabbachhan
Ranimmukherjee
director: Sanjay leela Bhansali
Black movie is extremely good. The performances of both Amitabbachhan and Rani mukerjee are ultimate. This is the story about a blind girl who is also deaf and dumb. A teacher brings a hope of ray in her life by teaching her all the things. He …
Movie Ruby
Ruby is a very spooky and very demonic movie. If you get scared easily, then it’s better that you don’t watch Ruby. Ruby is about spirit mediums and demon possesion. It’s a very dark and sinister type of film. Another thing about it, is that it’s a very old movie …
Dracula: Dead and Loving It (1995)
The comedic master mind that is Mel Brooks takes center stage as he pokes fun yet again at another movie. This time he takes on Dracula and tosses and turns this once serious and feared character into that of an onscreen laughing stock. Mel is one of the only …
Mulholland Falls
OK, maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Nick Nolte fan but I just can’t seem to get the movie Mulholland Falls. When it first came out, it looked entertaining. I like thrillers that make me think and thought this film would fit that category. And, having some A-list …
The Pink Panther Movie
This movie was over the top kookie. I don’t think it was as good as the original Pink Panther movie, because the clumsiness of the detective in this version (played by Steve Martin) was just a bit too obvious and not as offhand as in the original.
The curtain costumes …
Dor Movie
Dor : Dor is a story of two women, Ayesha and Gul with different cultual backgrounds. Both of their husbands moves to Suadi Arabia to earn money. One day, Ayesh hears the news that her husband died falling from a building in Suadi Arabia, and the same day Gul …
Tripping the Rift Season 1 DVD
Tripping the Rift is an unusual show. It has a fairly solid basis as a science fiction spoof: sure it has been done before but there is so much material to be found that there is still much to be done and new fodder is always being developed …
Elf
I absolutely LOVE Elf! This movie is hilarious and Will Ferrel is at his best! The characters are great, the acting is great and the storyline is hilarious. I don’t know anyone who has seen this movie and not fallen in love with it. It is definitely a Christmas …
