In Bruges
I became interested seeing In Bruges after I found out about the cast and the great script. But nothing would have foretold me how amazing this movie will turn out. First of all, it stars Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes and it is about two hitmen (Farrell …
“Men who hate women” movie
Adaptation of Swedish bestseller “Men who hate women” is not broke novel, however, deserves appreciation. The film was recorded in a typical Scandinavian type of cinema - a cool and stiff. Very different from Hollywood, to which we are accustomed. The actors are playing, and do not just look …
Scary Movie
A hideous “comedy” that is supposed to make fun of old horror movie cliches with a focus on predictable storytelling and shock effects. However, all it does is show a very long and disturbing series of prejudice, poor taste and idiotic humour. The film is by the way is …
50/50 (movie)
With some of my favourite actors like Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen featuring as the main characters in the movie “50 50″. The expectations were high, because both of these had done exceptionally well in the previous movies.
I knew what to expect from these names, and they didn’t disappointed …
Let Me In (movie)
“Let Me In” is another one of the movies that I watched recently. I remember seeing it advertising several times before my cable television went, but for some reason, I wasn’t very interested in seeing it. However, it was only after I read about it on someone’s blog where …
Netflix
My family likes watching movies. I especially enjoy getting family movies my daughter can watch for a special treat. My husband is into the really big blockbuster type movies with lots of special effects. We were signed up for the Blockbuster mailing service. I liked …
Superintelligence, movie (2020)
Mid-life soft comedies are a brand that Melissa McCarthy shaped and maintains to this day. At McCarthy’s instigation, as well as that of director Ben Falcone (who, by the way, is Melissa McCarthy’s husband), such films as “Big Boss” and “The Soul of the Company” appeared.
Mid-life soft …
The In-Laws (2003)
This movie is yet another disgrace of a movie, even though it stars some very decent actors, the movie just did not live up to the hype that was created around it and once again, we have a hit and miss coming out of the studios of the fames …
Those Who Hunt Elves
Those Who Hunt Elves is quite a funny anime that I have begun to watch a few days ago. The most attractive quality of this show is its humor which happens to come from how random it is. A sorceress elf named Celica tries to vanish an …
Where The Wild Things Are movie
Like many others, I grew up loving the book “Where The Wild Things Are”, and though I’m not a child anymore, when I found out a movie was coming out I was genuinely intrigued. How do you turn a 10-15 page children’s picture book into a full-length movie? Well, …

Mumbai, city where dream comes true and many dreams just remain as they are, dreams. Story of this movie circles around two brothers Jamal Malik and elder brother Salim Malik and also their female partner in crime, Latika, who at a very young age were rendered homeless due to the …
Cheaper by the dozen 1 Movie
Cheaper By The Dozen 1 (the first movie) is a great story. It’s about a family called the Bakers who have twelve children. Tom Baker played by Steve Martin is classic in his part. He stays true to the comical type of actor that he is. Tom’s wife played …
Limitless, movie
What would you do, if you could access 100% of your brain? This question is taken to the next level, in this unbelievable action thriller, Limitless. I couldn’t believe what I was watching. Going in to this movie, I had no idea what to expect, but after I watched …

Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …
My Bloody Valentine 3D
My Bloody Valentine 3D, The remake of the 1981 version by director George Mihalka, definitely is one worth seeing. Personally I think the 3D effect should be used in all horror films. 10 years after Harry Warden wakes up from a coma, he goes on a killing rampage know …
Breaking Upwards Movie
Romantic comedies are the way to America’s heart. There are at least five out on any given weekend and after seeing every trick in the book and laughing at every predictable joke Hollywood has thrown our way, we are still eager to tune in for another heart-tugger starring any number …

Thr Princess Diaries 2 movie
The movie “The Princess Diaries 2″ is the sequel to the previous movie released by Disney called “The Princess Diaries.” For some reason I wasn’t too excited when I discovered that the sequel was going to be released in theaters since it escaped me as to how the writers …
King’s Speech Movie
King’s Speech is exactly the kind of movie I enjoy most. Very touching, perfectly acted, and a beautiful rendering of a historical event or personality. This is a film that has garnered much recognition this Awards Season and that is rightly so, because it is certainly my favorite of …
Without A Clue Movie
This movie creates a funny twist to the famous Sherlock Holmes & Dr. Watson duo, with Dr. Watson being the mastermind and the genius and Holmes nothing but a fictional character created by him and represented by a hired actor, Reginald Kincaid (Michael Caine). While Kincaid gets all the …
Movie: So I Married an Axe Murderer
Synopsis: A poet (Mike Myers) begins dating and eventually marries a local butcher but suspects she might be a serial killer.
What I liked about this movie: The plot of this 1993 film is clever and funny. You have a woman who seems perfect in every way. But, she is …
“The Avengers” (2012 film)
I went to see “The Avengers” with mixed expectations-I saw it in 3D, and was prepared for lots of the visual spectacle you would hope for from a superhero blockbuster. But the last film I saw in 3D was “Avatar,” which is a case study on how stunning visuals …
Never Been Kissed
Never Been Kissed is a pretty good movie. I really liked it. It shows how love can still really be found in this world. I think that Drew barrymore did a very good job of acting. Her acting was just so magical. I really liked the plot and the story …
Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
The loveable, red-skinned hero is back to save the future of mankind. Action packed and absolutely hilarious, Hellboy 2 lives up to its prequel (Hellboy).
The scenario is unique, with sudden turns, heart-stopping moments and keeping me on my heels wanting more. The film is well budgeted with amazing …
Johnny English Reborn (Movie)
I recently watched this movie. I downloaded it from iTunes. It was fairly priced. The download took quite some time, but I was streaming and downloading at the same time so it didn’t affect me that much. Johnny English is played by Rowan Atkinson, also known as Mr. Bean. …
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 …
The Road to Hollywood movie
The Road to Hollywood from 1947 was a biography of sorts about the success of crooner, Bing Crosby. This was the such type of production from filmmaker Bud Pollard who had done a piece like this on Danny Kaye the year before.
Pollard serves as the host of The …
Blockbuster Online Accounts
This company certainly knows how to work you over and obtain maximum revenue at consumer loss! A few years ago they had a $19.99 plan that allowed 3 discs at a time with UNLIMITED in store exchanges. They since changed that plan to allow only FIVE exchanges per month …
The Social Network: Movie
The Social Network was, for me, one of the best if not the best film of 2010 —“ and one of my all-time favourites.
I wasn’t too sure about the storyline but after recommendations I’m glad I gave it a chance, the plot is a very interesting and I wasn’t …
Kids (NR, 1995) movie
There is a reason why this DVD is not rated. It is because the sex and adult situations in this film are so intense that it had to be rated that way. I know you’re wondering what kind of filth would be involved in a movie titled …
The Time Machine movie
It is an entertaining film based on the concept of time traveling. This concept has always thrilled me and I was curious to know about it. The first half of the movie is pretty enjoyable as well as knowledgeable. I am not a die hard fan of science …
“Funny games” movie
Shocking, but very real movie - saturated with brutality so well known to us from many other images. This time, however, it is presented in a unique way. The director wanted not only to make another movie like his predecessors, but also realize some important things to us …
Idyllic …
Terminator salvation
I already watch this movie in cinemas yesterday. This is the fourth series from terminator movies. I think many new things that are shown and it is very different from the previous movies. For example, the main actor is not Arnold Schwarzeneger anymore, and the world setting is not …
There Will Be Blood (epic drama movie)
I’ve found it so strange that I had never heard of the 2007 movie “There Will Be Blood” until late last year. Even then I still had no idea what to expect of it because of the title. A major part of me figured that the plot might have something …
Sid and Nancy
Sid and Nancy with Gary Oldmann and Chloe Webb.
Ever hear of the axiom, If you have nothing good to say, then it is best to say nothing?” Well this biography of the crash and burn life of Sid Vicious from the group Sex Pistols …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I don’t know why everyone around me seems to find Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince a boring watch. Perhaps they are but I was like enjoying the movie, laughing throughout especially when it comes to the love potion. But I am just too lazy to think …
Babysitter Wanted Horror movie
I am reveiwing the new Horror movie “Babysitter Wanted”. At first I thought this movie was going to be more like a Halloween Micke Myers kind of movie but when I beheld the child with the horns in the top of his head i was more than flabbergasted.
Initially …
IMDb
IMDb is the international movies database, and for good reason. The sheer size of the amount of movies covered on this website is simply unsurpassed, I’d say. Every movie has a page, even if all is listed is a simple title. But rest assured, that situation will only persist …
The Company of Wolves (1984)
This is a unique werewolf movie based on “Red Riding Hood” and one I enjoyed watching. Angela Landsbury is the star and she does a wonderful job of playing the girl’s grandmother. Based on the clothing the characters wear, the story is set during Pilgrim days except it takes …
Marie Antionette: The Movie
If you have done your history homework, you would be familiar with the name Marie Antoinette. In case you aren’t, she was the queen of France during the French Revolution. She was famous, but not for good reasons.

The Great Debators

Meet the Spartans (2008)
This movie is a spoof of the Frank Miller’s telling of the tale of the Spartans, the movie known as 300. Basically everything from start to finish about this movie is similar to 300 with the exception of that it’s a pun of the movie. In addition, almost everything …
John Carpenter’s “The Thing” (the 1982 film)
Initially, I imagined John Carpenter’s 1982 classic “The Thing” to be an ordinary, old and spooky film. Yet, I found it intriguingly scary. I didn’t quite reach the thrill I had wanted but it was still a significant masterpiece.
I also enjoyed the characters and the setting. Both were respectable …
Barbie in the 12 Dancing princesses
‘Barbie in the12 Dancing Princesses’ is the cartoon I like best in series about Barbie. All Barbie cartoons are gently, peaceful and suitable for girls. They are like fairy tales with magnificient context. But the appearance of princes, pricesses, farm girls and poor people in Barbie stories isn’t like …
