Ghostbusters (2016 Comedy Movie)

Despite all the harshness and negativity surrounding the 2016 Ghostbusters remake, I was probably one of the few persons who actually couldn’t wait to see what it would be like. I was in a terrible mood when I ended up watching it fairly recently too, but you now what? When …

Masters of Horror: Cigarette Burns (movie)

This film is one in a series of horror movies directed by different individuals. I have realized that after a period of time, these films are more like “Tales from the Darkside” episodes, only with more gore, sex and violence. At any rate, this episode: Cigarette Burns …

Ivan the Terrible movie

One of Sergei Eisenstein’s sound films, in which a historical epic about the ruthless emperor Ivan is told. It is a very powerful visual film, and Eisenstein puts all of his effort on effects, magnificent camerawork and a dynamic style of editing. All of this is a brilliant as …

The Family Man

I had an opportunity to watch the movie The Family Man last night. I have seen it before but it was the first time in a long while and I couldn’t remember much about the movie.
I now know why that was. It really isn’t a very memorable film.
Basically, the …

Moonrise Kingdom, movie (2012)

Wes Anderson, as a director, has a tendency to be too quirky for his own good. After two great films with Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, his films became inconsistent. I’m not a big fan of The Royal Tenenbaums. I highly enjoyed Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. …

Super 8 (2011 Movie)

For me, Super 8 was surprisingly good film considering the trailer did absolutely nothing for me. From great performances to an intense build-up of suspense, it’s a very enjoyable film.
Although the film’s director, J.J. Abrams is known for his first-person photography, this movie really benefits from the fact that …

Arthur 2011 movie

I just recently saw the movie Arthur (2011). This stars the actors Russel Brand, the famous Helen Mirren and Jennifer Garner. Apparently, this has a low rating in IMDB but I loved this movie! People have been comparing it to the old Arthur movie which stars Dudley Moore. I …

Katherine movie

Sissy Spacek and Henry Winkler star in this movie called Katherine. The story is actually based on the experiences of a woman named Diana Oughton, whose parents were wealthy and big names in their region.

Madagascar 2: Escape To Africa

I watched Madagascar 2: Escape To Africa and I came out from the cinema, a happy customer. It was so hilarious and I don’t mind seeing it again. Seriously, the first Madagascar movie was funny but the second got me tears in my eyes laughing. This time around, Madagascar …

Inkheart

Whenever I watch a movie starring the ever talented Brendan Fraser, I would swoon. That’s because he is such a talented actor and his acting is so magical each time. The roles that he played are all the right kind of mix for him. From the anthology …

Home Alone movie

The original and still the best. This side-splitting comedy tells the tale of a kid who thought he had wished his family away. Enjoying his spoils he indulges his child-like appetite like only a kid can. Meanwhile, two buglars are rampaging through the neighborhood stealing all in their path …

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa

We ended up picking up the second Madagascar movie “Escape 2 Africa” last night and wasn’t really sure what to expect. The first one was OK but not the best movie ever and we all know sequels usually don’t live up to the original.
As it turns out, the second …

Gilbert Grape

My wife is a Johnny Depp fan and has seen most of his films and the other night I watched one with her it was called whats eating Gilbert Grape.
The film was really good and sad in parts but I could not get over the acting by …

Mr. Brooks

I actually was so scared when I watch this movie. It seems like there could be a real story like this out there, and that made me so scared.
This movie is about Mr. Brooks, who is a successful businessman, having a family and a wife. He looks …

Valkyrie movie

Before I rented “Valkyrie” last night, I decided that it might be good, despite my dislike of Tom Cruise, because it has two things going for it that I like: it is based on a true story, and it is set during WW2, and I am a big fan …

Movie Enchanted

I usually like movies based on fairy tales and, overall, the film Enchanted wasn’t bad. But, I think the movie used too much of the same-old format to make it good.
Amy Adams was decent as a princess who is sent from a fairy-tale world to New York City. But, …

Tekken (2010) Film

Is the 2010 Tekken movie a proper tribute to the game it was based on? Or will it follow the footsteps of the vast majority of movies based on video games and simply—¦ well, suck?
I gotta say, from the time I saw the trailer, I never expected this …

Life As We Know It Movie (2010)

I watched this movie because if features one of my favorite actresses Katherine Heigl, it also features Josh Duhamel and I thought it would be a funny movie but I actually found it was really serious for actors like them to be playing this part. The movie is about …

Mr. Bean’s Holiday (2007)

Mr. Bean goes on vacation after winning a raffle. That is the plot of the movie plain and simple and in a nutshell as anyone could have it. All this movie does is takes us on the road of adventure that Mr. Bean goes through from place to place. …

The Last Bolshevik movie

Whisper A Horror Movie

M Moderate supernatural themes and violence.

Scary Movie

I know, for a date movie, this might actually be one …

Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie

Jump! movie

From 2007, Jump! stars Patrick Swayze as a Jewish lawyer in Austria who defends a young man accused of murdering his father. This was Swayze’s last real theatrical appearance in a starring role. He did film a television movie this same year and then did a cameo …

Dark Shadows by Tim Burton (2012)

The last thing I want to watch in a movie is another self-defying Johnny Depp playing just about any grotesque role Hollywood throws at him. Well I wound up watching just that, and the current addition to Depp’s collection of fantasy characters is Barnabas Collins in Dark Shadows. …

Santa with Muscles-film

I recently watched a comedy oriented Christmas film called santa with muscles starring the wrestler Hulk Hogan. Movies with Hulk Hogan as a lead are not too good and have average appeal.However,this film is a shame to the rest of Hogan’s movies. It was basically about a rich dude who …

The Thief and the Cobbler film

The thief and the cobbler is a 1993 animated fantasy film set in an Arabian like land..Even though it was released in 1993,the film was in production for about 30 years because of the difficulty of the director to fund the movie.In the beginning of the film,the three golden …

Bleak House (2005)

At first, I was not sure whether I liked the new Bleak House (released in 2005) better than the old version I have in my collection of classics (the 1985 Masterpiece Theatre production). I was so used to the old version that it took me some time to warm …

The Deserter movie

Another silent montage film by the perhaps most appreciated director that worked with the style, next to Eisenstein - Vsevolod Pudovkin.
Looking through all of his work, I have to say Pudovkin’s films have aged a lot better than Eisenstein. While Eisenstein did all he could to make the films …

Murder by Death,1976 movie

When people have too much money and nothing to do, they do weird stuff. That’s what happens in this movie: Lionel Twain (Truman Capote), a millionaire, invites five of the world’s best and most famous detectives to what he calls “dinner and a murder.” Their task is to A) …

CHICKEN LITTLE DVD

My grandson just HAD to see Chicken Little on DVD. We rented it for him, but the entire family enjoyed this DVD immensely! Yes, it does start with the acorn hitting Chicken Little on the head, and he ran to the tower to ring the alarm bell for emergencies …

The Age of Adaline Movie

There are just some books that should not be made as movies, and The Age of Adaline was one of those books. I never read the book myself and after watching the movie I probably will do my best to go out of my way just to avoid it in …

When Harry Met Sally (movie)

When Harry Met Sally is the ultimate boy meets girl, girl doesn’t like boy, boy meets girl again and they become friends, boy and girl fall in love and get married story. I love this movie! I know, it’s a little, sappy love story and it was filmed a …

Escape To Witch Mountain

Another cherished Disney memory from the 70s, I was thrilled when it became available on DVD. Escape to Witch Mountain is the tale of aliens who crashland on Earth. Survivors of the tragedy found refuge on what the surrounding community called Witch Mountain, because of the strange goings-on there.
Tia …

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

As a big Harry potter fan I went to see the motion picture Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at the local movie theatre. However I must say that I am disappointed. David Yates does not do justice to the book at all. I see it as …

Premonition

I was prepared to really hate this film. I had read reviews. And so many people (including critics) had nothing but weak things to say about this film. I think it’s because Sandra Bullock has never been taken seriously as an actress. Her quirky ways, …

Land of the Lost

I’m not a huge Will Ferrell fan so I kind of figured I wouldn’t like his movie Land of the Lost.
Well, I watched it this past weekend and it turns out I was right.
This movie just wasn’t that good. Ferrell is supposed to be some sort of genius scientist …
