Yea yea, another one of those Sherlock Holmes spinoffs. By now can you really expect anything good out of them by now? Fortunately, after countless mind numbingly awful “reimaginings” of the world of Sherlock Holmes over the past few years (decades even), a movie finally got lucky and didn’t …

If everyone ever walks up to you on the street and offers you a movie about group sex that stars Macaulay Culkin, be nice, say no thank you and walk away quickly.
The reason I say this is, the movie likely being offered to you is the film Sex and …

Prescription: Murder was the movie that spawned the iconic Columbo TV series. The movie starred the dapper Gene Barry in the murderer’s role. That was one thing that was special about the Columbo series. It was always a game of cat and mouse. The mystery …

“To Sir with Love” is one of my all time favorite movies. I’ve seen it dozens of times and I still cry every time I see the movie. I think it is the ultimate teacher movie ever. The 1967 Columbia British Productions movie was filmed in color and lasts …

I watched this a couple years ago on lifetime movie network. I remember the movie really well though because it was so good. It is by far one of my favorite movies they play, if not my favorite. It’s about a woman that can’t get child support from her …

I plan on buying the entire run of horror movies from the Horror Fest 2008 series, but when they recently went on sale, I needed to pick out a few to buy. One of those that I picked was Lake Dead. Prior to watching the movie, I went online …

Only You starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr., is a funny, charming and shamelessly romantic movie. It does not pretend to be anything other than it is, it is a movie for people who love romantic comedies, and who love the concept of romance, and believe that it …

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 …

Green Zone movie is based on the American invasion of Iraq and the truth behind it. I reckon its one of the best Non-Friction movie made this year and the truth behind the Iraq war has really been well told by the movie. Really liked the Matt Damon’s acting …

I have seen advertisements for the movie Precious in the past and, from what I saw of them, I figured it would be a movie I would have absolutely no interest in. That’s why it never made my Netflix Queue.
However, my wife told me she wanted to watch it …

The first time I watched Napoleon Dynamite I thought it was brilliant, the second time I watched Napoleon Dynamite I thought it was hysterical, the third time I watched Napoleon Dynamite I thought it was the best movie ever and the fourth time I watched it i knew I …

Actually found out about the movie “The Good Lie” by accident. I didn’t know it existed until I saw a trailer for the movie right in passing before it was set to air on HBO. Therefore, I recorded it and I was able to watch it in the comfort of …

A Cinderella Story is a really interesting take on the fairy tale of Cinderella.
This movie stars Hilary Duff as the to-be “Cinderella” and Chad Michel Murray as her “prince.” Hilary narrates some of the movie like she is a telling story, which I found to be nice.
The movie …

I was not planning to watch this movie. Channel surfing brought me to the movie about ten or fifteen minutes into it. I decided to give it a moment, check things out before surfing on to another channel. But I stayed and watched the whole thing, and loved every …

Black Swan is a relatively new movie directed by Darren Aronofsky. The movie centers around the famous ballet ” Swan Lake”. This movie focuses on the production and around the character of Nina Sayers played by the famous and talented Natalie Portman. I have to say that upon seeing …

I just rented and watched the movie the strangers today and it was pretty good. I am not going to say it was a 10 because there were parts of the movie that I felt like “I wish it would hurry up and end”. At the same time …

Yesterday I watched Wanted movie starring Angelina Joulie. I went to see mainly Angelina in action. As usual she is at her best.
I won’t discuss the storyline here as it will understood better if you watch the movie that read reviews about it. Anyway it is about a …

Released as El Retorno del Hombre-Lobo in Spain, Paul Naschy opted to remake his greatest success, The Werewolf’s Shadow, to recoup the cash that he lost on his previous non-werewolf films. It didn’t work out. The film was a major failure and it bankrupted Naschy’s company.
What a shame as …

I don’t know why I even bothered to watch this movie, but it was an utter waste of my time. The plot which was about a monster attacking New York City is nothing new. It was a bad mix of Godzilla and King Kong with the lizard-like creature (a …

“Charlie Wilson’s War” opened in my local theatre this weekend. I went to a matinee and enjoyed it very much. The movie tells the story of Texas Congressman Charlie Wilson and his efforts to finance covert operations in Afghanistan to help defeat the Soviets who had invaded. The movie …

I didn’t have high hopes for this movie. It looked cheesy, stooping for cheap laughs with fart and masturbation jokes. However, I was surprised to find it rather amusing; definitely not in my top fifty, but certainly decent and watchable.
The fart joke surprised me. I hate humor based on …

I watched this story before, Because I Said So, starring one of my most favorite actress, Mandy Moore and the very talented and awesome Diane Keaton.
This is a very good movie story to watch if you are a mother and if you are a daughter. I’m sorry, …

I saw this movie a day ago because the title caught my eye when I was looking on the television guide for movies to watch. When I watched it though, I realised that the film was more than just a strange title, but it was a heartbreaking film which …

I love The Tale of Despereaux! I find it super cute, amazing and I love the voice-overs of Emma Watson as Princess Pea, and the main voice of Despereaux by Matthew Broderick. Other popular voice-over cast are also present and I truly love the storyline, but the movie …

Thanks to the wonder of the internet, I have discovered via following David Lynch’s news updates on Facebook and Twitter that in between his mind-boggling films which tend to be about 5 years apart, Lynch’s artistic juices continue to flow and he produces sculptures, paintings, promotes music and then …

Just by the title’s name you can already summize what the movie is about, so I need not get into the dirty details of this movie, and believe me, it is dirty. This is one of the movies that give men a bad name, but other than that, it …

In the year 1979 one of the future leading pop icons Michael Jackson released his fifth solo studio album. Unlike his past efforts with his brothers Michael wanted to gain more artistic freedom - a thing he wasn’t allowed in the past. Off the Wall album is produced by …

For the longest time, I had completely forgotten about this movie. It used to be one of my favorite films of all time as a child, than I rediscovered it again as an adult for one reason. The Pixar movie, Wall-E. Wall-E really reminded me of Johnny 5 from …

When I heard about this movie, I was eager to watch it, being that I heard that it was about the haunted skull of the historical figure the “Marquis de Sade”, the same person who the word “sadism” was coined from.
It is also not to be confused with …

This not quite-a-remake of George Romero’s classic zombie film is an odd creature. While it tries its hardest to be its own entity, any daring strides toward individuality are often done away with as the film pulls back for the odd, hollow reference back to the original it’s based …

Here is another example of why Hollywood should stay as far away from comic book remakes as possible. This movie is so bad, it makes ‘bad’ seem like a candy bar. At first when the movie started, I was all geared up to enjoy Hulk style destruction similar to …

Usually in Singapore it is common to anticipate a Jackie Chan block-buster in and around the Chinese New Year period, where the slightly longer holidays would encourage better box office.
However, this year’s “The Spy Next Door” starring Jackie Chan and Amber Valletta did not create any hype surrounding the …

I actually thought that The Matrix was a done deal…no sequels involved (boy was i wrong). Reloaded came to stir up more trouble for our guys in shiney leather and dark glasses. What is there to say about this installation of The Matrix saga…other than it’s long, it’s dull, …

Rudy is, in my opinion, tied for first with Remember the Titans as the greatest football movie of all time. Rudy is a movie that tugs on every emotion you have. The film draws us in and it has to do with the amazing film making. …

With all due respect to Mr. John Voight and Miss Mary Steenburgen I like them both because they are very good actor and actress. I never doubted their talents after all these years I have watched their movies; however, I really did not like one of the movies …

Anyone who has seen the trailer for “The Day The Earth Stood Still”, will have marvelled at the scenes of destruction, the dizzying special effects that show The Meadowlands being ripped apart by an ashen dust swarm. What the trailer fails to show is the mind-numbingly dull 102 minutes …

1954’s Young at Heart is one of my favorite movies. Interestly, though, I’ve changed how I liked it from when I was a little girl to how I like it as an adult. I always enjoyed it, but as a child, I wanted the resolution to the …

Does anyone really get the movie, A Clockwork Orange? I know that I don’t! I have tried to understand if A Clockwork Orange is about more than just what you see, sort of like is there a subplot that I should be understanding, but I come up with the …

I remember when I saw the trailer for this movie. I just had to see it. I mean the Simpsons…one of the most popular cartoon shows out there and it’s been around so long it was about time they made a movie.
I got to admit the movie started in …

I really love The Fox and the Hound 2, an animated feature film from Walt Disney Studios. I’ve never seen the original The Fox and the Hound, but this sequel I had to see because my favorite actor, the late and so incredibly awesome Patrick Swayze, voiced the …
