After Earth (2013, Movie)
When I heard about this movie, a science-fiction, with Will Smith and his son, Jaden Smith, I thought it was gonna be a good film, due to previous movies in which Will Smith played. For me, personally, it was a disappointment, and here is why…
First of all, the movie …
The Movie Dinner for Schmucks
When I saw the previews for “Dinner For Shmucks” I was really excited. The previews had me laughing so hard so I thought that because the previews were funny then the movie must be funny. However, after paying to see this movie I have to say that …
Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked (Movie 2011)
I just recently saw the third Chipmunk movie installment, Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. I found the movie had too much music and was not as interesting as the first two but it was cute and I did enjoy it. I am not sure that I will watch it …
Hide And Seek
Hide And Seek was shown on my local TV channel and if it’s acting by Robert De Niro, I always make it a point to watch. This movie also sees the little kid, Dakota Fanning (think she had acted with Tom Cruise as well), I give this story 10 …

The Forgotten
The Forgotten is a very weird and kind of spooky movie. It’s about alien abduction and it’s also very interesting how people were sucked into the sky in this movie. It was very strange and also scary at the same time. I think that the The Forgotten has a pretty …
The Mist
Frank Darabont had proven himself a skilled director when it came to adapting Stephen King’s works to film. He created a modern masterpiece with “The Shawshank Redemption” and “The Green Mile” was also very well done. For the first time, the director gets to tackle a horror …
Never Been Kissed
“Never Been Kissed” is the first movie where the actress Drew Barrymore has a main role and, at the same time, is involved in the production of the same film. Barrymore found this experience very positive and decided to be involved in producing her on movies from her onwards. …
Dreamscape
I hadn’t seen Dreamscape in a while so, when given the opportunity to watch it last night, I made every effort. And, I have to say, the movie is as good as I remember it.
The great thing about Dreamscape is, even today, it’s a plot that hasn’t been re-done …
Pirates 3: At World’s End
I am reviewing the third installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, called At World’s End. Okay, so the first movie was fantastic. The second movie was good. The third…terrible. What were those writers thinking? I am a huge Pirates of the Caribbean fan, but I …

Robin Hood: Men In Tights (1993)
I have always loved satirical and fantasy movies and “Robin Hood: Men In Tights” is one that gives me the best of both worlds. I will say right now, this movie is not for everyone, but if you like satire, this is the one to see. Mel Brooks really …

Father of the Bride
“Father of the Bride” is a movie starring Steve Martin, Diane Keaton and Kimberly Williams as the father, the mother, and the soon-to-be bride, respectively. It is apparently a remake of the movie by the same name from the 1950s that I have never watched.
Pros: Steve Martin was …
And The Little Dog Laughed - Garrick Theatre
And I laughed too. A lot.
This a surprising, fun, funny, touching play. It is a bitingly satirical look at Hollywood stardom. That makes it sound somehow predictable and dull - but I assure you it is far better than the synopsis.
It stars Rupert Friend as Mitchell, a Hollywood actor …
Movie The Unborn
At first I really wanted to see this film. The previews looked incredibly scary. And as usual the powers that be put the scariest, most disturbing scenes in the actual trailer. I cannot believe that I actually was going to visit the movie theater …

Movie Man of the Year
I wasn’t sure what to think when they cast Robin Williams as a presidential candidate in the movie Man of the Year. But, after watching the film last night, I do think it is better than I expected it to be; though I’m not sure its his best film.
Williams …

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
American Hustle (movie)
I became interested in watching the movie “American Hustle” because virtually everyone I know who watched it claimed it was a masterpiece. The Oscar nominations that it received made me even more interested in seeing it. However the only things that kept me away were that there were actors …
Cloverfield (movie)
Rob and I went to see this movie the other day entitled Cloverfield. The movie was done in the same method that The Blair Witch Project was filmed as if you were watching the movie unfold as someone is filming a party in New York City. The …
First Daughter movie
The right words to describe the movie “First Daughter” is a Presidential version of “A Princess Diaries”. The true pity is that “First Daughter” has the same story of “Chasing Liberty” and they were both released during the same year 2004. One cannot help but compare …
The Natural movie

Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist
Yep, it’s another teen movie. But it’s not just another one of those typical ones. Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is perhaps one of those movies that actually tackle something more than just the cliché jock/nerd romance. The story follows a recently heartbroken high school student, Nick O’ Leary. …
The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (2013) movie
Today (30/08/13) I had went to watch The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones with my best-friend at Hoyts Cinema, NZ. And boy was I glad I had paid $17 of my allowance to watch it! :D
The Movie in my opinion was a great watch. The characters they had to …
Clash of the Titans Movie (2010)
This movie is more of like a Percy Jackson movie that is for adults, when I saw this I had thought to myself that this seemed more like the movie for my age range, which is mid-twenties, and I had really liked the effects and the cinematography of this …
King Arthur
This movie is based on historical facts behind the Arthurian legends (or at least so its creators claim). If you are into King Arthur, Excalibur, and the Knights of the Round Table, you will probably enjoy this attempt to create a historical portrait of Arthur. According to the movie, …
Themroc movie
A very unusual french film almost completely without dialogue. This is all about how people act instead of what they say, and in that sense I have to say it is really impressive. The story is that of the crazy man Themroc, who acts like some madman with compassion …
Clawed the Legend of Sasquatch (2005) Movie
I watched this horror movie last night and it was much better than I had expected. I had never seen a movie about a sasquatch (bigfoot) before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’m happy to say this picture kept me entertained until the end. The plot was …
Film The Tenant
I first time I heard of Roman Polanski’s The Tenant was from my mother who had ventured into a movie theater many years ago with a friend who had an affinity for avant-garde fair.
The Tenant still lived in infamy to this day and I grew up from childhood to …
300 DVD Movie
I love so much watching the movie 300 when it first came to the cinema a couple of months back. And although I do not like violence, especially wars, I do feel that the Spartan warriors have a very artistic and creative style of fighting right to the …
The Golden Compass movie
I watched this today with my younger sister. I was surprised at how interested I was in the movie. Most of the time when I watch movies with her I just do it to relax and I sometimes pay real attention to the movies but other times I just …
Blue Jasmine: A Movie
A few nights ago, my husband and I were watching television when he stumbled across Blue Jasmine on HBO. I had never seen it before, but he had seen it and thought that I would like it. I can’t claim to be a huge Cate Blanchet fan, but I …
Music and Lyrics (movie )
I’m a fan of both Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, so I had some interest in seeing them together in Music and Lyrics. But, I didn’t know I’d enjoy the movie so much. Grant plays Alex, a has been pop star and Barrymore is Sophie, an aspiring …
Easy Rider
Easy Rider is a movie about riding. Simple as that. I suppose riders all over would be able to love the movie and relate to the journeys of Billy and Wyatt, acted by Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda respectively. Well, minus the dope at least. These 2 …

Paycheck (2003)
This has got to be one of the only films that I have seen Ben Affleck play a character that was good in any sense. In this movie, he plays the role of an engineer who assists large corporations develop strategies to counter and rise above their competition, in …
The Proposal movie
I am reviewing the 2009 movie, The Proposal, starting Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White.
The plot to this movie is quite simple. Sandra Bullock plays a mean, severely unlikeable boss, who, when threatened with deportation, blackmails her assistant into pretending that they are married. There’s only …
Dawn of the Dead
What many people do not understand is that there are two versions of “Dawn of the Dead”. There is the one from 2004 which I have based my review on, and then, there is the one from 1978 which I have not watched. Dawn of the dead (2004) …
Flintstones on the Rocks
I didn’t remember that this movie existed until recently when I found an old DVD of it at my cousin’s house and decided to watch it again so maybe I could write a review on it. It came out in my earlier years in high school which was about …
Klute Movie
