The Death And Life Of Bobby Z
I love Paul Walker very much. And in this movie, The Death And Life Of Bobby Z that he acted which I’ve watched like 2 times, the storyline ain’t that bad.
At first, I was quite skeptical into thinking that it is a rather cheesy gangster movie but …
My Life in Ruins
Although it is, in my opinion, a chick-flick, “My Life in Ruins” is a great, light-hearted movie, and if you enjoyed “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” then you will be sure to enjoy this movie. The writing and acting will not be recognized at the Oscars next year, but …

I would first like to warn you that this review will contain a spoiler later on, I will clearly indicate it, so if you haven’t seen the movie, don’t read the spoiler!

The Rookie movie
If you enjoy watching classic action movies, with tough and uncompromising characters, this one is for you. Despite the fact that it was created 18 years ago, this film is still fun to watch. It tells the story of a young inexperienced cop David Ackerman (Charlie Sheen)and his stern …
The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008 Movie)
Though I’m not usually one for war-based dramas, this movie grabbed hold of my heart and broke it in two with one of the saddest endings I’ve seen in a long time. The story is simple; A young boy, Bruno, is forced to move from his peaceful home full …

The Comebacks
I don’t ever remember seeing the movie “The Comebacks” advertising to be released in theatres. In fact, thinking about it now I realized I must have, but at the time I probably thought that it was just one of the many sports movie dramas which were being released at …
Trust The Man
“Trust The Man” had to be all about the actress, Julianne Moore because, at the time, she was the one mostly known in Hollywood. Apart from this, the director and scriptwriter of this movie is Moore’s husband, Bart Freundlich. I must admit that the actor that truly steals the …
The Haunting in Connecticut movie

I Walked with a Zombie movie
Another classic horror film, made back in the 1930s. Very subtle horror is it doesn’t really contain any violence or monsters. A woman travels to Jamaica where she learns of the strange culture called voodoo - the ability to control people using a puppet.
This woman experiences the most remarkable …
Veggie Tales: The Pirates who don’t do anything
I’ve sat down to watch Veggie Tale movies with my daughter before. But, I’ve only done it to be nice; I’ve rarely enjoyed the experience. However, the movie The Pirates who don’t do Anything, is definitely an exception. I actually liked the movie as much as she did.
Unlike other …
Music and Lyrics (2007)
There is no reason for romantic-comedy lover not to watch this movie because there is a king and queen of romantic comedy inside, that is : Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore. The good news here is, this movie is as great as I expected when I heard that it …

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
“Pirates” is simply one of those movies that will not be off the current younger generation’s top films list. For me (and many others, I suspect), it was gateway into now-legendary actor Johnny Depp’s career. The guy’s performance in this movie, while not a magnum opus, no doubt reveals …
Simpsons Movie
When the Simpsons started on television, I thought it was the best show ever. But, over the past few years, the episodes seemed forced and less and less original.
So, when the Simpsons Movie came out, I had my doubts. I’m glad to say I was wrong.
I skipped seeing this …
Pathfinder, epic action film by Marcus Nispel
I had so many reasons I didn’t want to see this movie. For starters the director made the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the one that came out in 2003. How could somebody that made that disappointing movie make a barbarian movie? Then you have the fact that this movie opened …

300 (movie)
This was definitely a man’s movie. Rocky with a sword times three hundred. It was over the top, overflowing with testosterone both in the battlefield and at home. It reminded me a lot of Gladiator, with just a darker feel to it. The way it was filmed was very …
The Dead Zone
OK, is there a movie Christopher Walken doesn�t have a role in? Though, I have to admit, it was a bit strange seeing him actually be the star rather than have a supporting role.
Last night was the first time I had a chance to watch this movie from the …

The Bourne Ultimatum
I have enjoyed both the previous Bourne movies, but I HAVE to say that the last one The Bourne Ultimatum was by far my favourite! I am usually not that much into watching sequels - but the Bourne Sequels just got better and better as they went along! …
Seven Pounds DVD
I rented the DVD ‘Seven Pounds,’ starring Will Smith and Rosario Dawson, fully expecting to see a romantic, heart warming story, much in the same genre as ‘Pursuit of Happyness;’ instead, I found it to be a mostly dark and agonizing tale, and even slightly creepy.
I do have to …

Movie: Christmas with the Kranks

Werewolves, Vampires and Zombies dvd
