First of all: I LOVE penguins! I don’t know why, but they seem to be such happy little creatures, wherever you see them in movies, toy- shops and tv-commercials… but then, after seeing the documentary “March of the Penguins” (see separate review), I know there are not that happy …

The 1998 film “Lost in Space” starring Matt LeBlanc, Mimi Rogers and Heather Graham is a sci-fi thriller that is pretty much guaranteed to not only give the viewers a strong dose of the supernatural, but an entertaining plot that is simple and enjoyable to follow.
Despite the fact that …

While every other girl in the world was looking forward to New Moon I wasn’t sure what to expect. I found the first movie in the series Twilight entertaining but not worth all the fuss and the book was simple at best.
So I went in to see New …

For me, it is hard to see what the problem is or was with Fantasia. Most critics hated it back in 1940, especially classical music enthusiasts. They felt Disney animators butchered a beautiful art form. How naive is that? The animation was fantastic and, I felt, only …

Its been maybe 2 or 3 years since I’ve had another wireless service other than AT&T. Some use to always say that a not so good signal was the result of cell phone type, I don’t think thats the case, it is the result of having the right cellphone …

Like any discerning cinema fan, I’ve always been slightly suspicious of Drew Barrymore. Can she act? It seems for every decent performance she delivers, she chooses some unbelievably soulless project that would make even the finest acting look like a middle-school play. And way too often it seems like …

This movie was utterly depressing. I think many couples would be quite stricken after watching this. It may be focused on married couples, but I think that the theme encompasses all relationships anywhere in the world because it tackles a very important yet often overlooked issue: communication.
The Wheelers …

I didn’t go to this movie expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. With the resurgence of comic book movies this year, I guess I was feeling a bit burnt out, but this one is definitely worth your time if only for Chris Hemsworth’s movie-making performance.
I’m not a comic …

Last night was probably the 10th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say I enjoyed it as much as I did first time I saw it.

Here we have the four-disc Alien Anthology on Blu-ray. Being a huge Aliens fan myself i was really excited about this release but was a little concerned about what new features it would have to offer over the previous 9 disc DVD release Alien Quadrilogy. Being larger capacity discs the …

I have to say this is one of my all-time favorite Ben Stiller movies. I’m not really a Stiller fan; the only movie he’s really “acted” in was the hilarious Zoolander; otherwise, he always plays the same character: neurotic, a little nerdy, uncommitted, but with a good soul. He …

I have just rented “The Ladykillers” 2004, starring Tom Hanks, from our local library and we’ve had a fun evening watching this hilarious comedy. However, I could do with less profanity; hearing the f-word all throughout the movie was rather annoying.
The story is about a gang of criminals lead …

Meet the Parents was a classic. Meet the Fockers did not enjoy as much critical success as the original, but it was still thoroughly enjoyable. Unfortunately, the film to complete the trilogy is as stale and pointless as any of the other third movies you can remember.
Greg and …

In the movie Happy Feet, penguins must find their heart song in order to find their life partner. The main character Mumble has an issue with finding his heart song- he can not sing. It is kind of implied that something happened during the incubating period that resulted his …

Dracula: Dead and Loving It with Leslie Nielson, Mel Brooks, Steven Weber, Peter MacNicol, Harvey Korman, and Amy Yasbeck.
Was this supposed to be one of those comedy spoof films or an honest attempt at another version of the Dracula film remakes? I am not sure. …

I was fortunate enough to see the new movie the Hangover in the movie theatre while it was still in theaters. I saw it with my boyfriend and I must admit, it was the perfect date movie. It is perfect only if you are looking for a very light, …

I love Gothic Horror movies, Guillermo Del Toro, Jessica Chastain and Tom Hiddleston and so it was a given that I definitely had to see the movie Crimson Peak once it was released. I read both good and bad reviews about it, and so I wasn’t totally sure what to …

Big Shots with Chris Titus and Dylan Mc Dermott.
The first episode of this series was pretty good, but the novelty quickly wore off. Four 40 year old well to do executives are friends and form a support group for each other as they muck …

When I heard that there was going to be another Karate Kid movie released recently, I was very interested in watching it since I remember watching the other of these movies when I was much younger and liking them. My interest in seeing the new one was piqued …

We each have our favorite cult classic. But, there is one for me that stands as the best one. Nothing for me can match its style or zaniness, be it Buckaroo Banzai or Toxic Avenger. The blending of 80’s new wave with the vintage styles of …

Even though I’m already a grown up, I love watching cartoons, animated movies and especially Barbie! I’ve watched The Barbie Diaries like countless times and just am not bored with it at all. This is just like your typical chick flick; only animated version.
Barbie and her friends …

To give props where props are do: I really like the idea of Mutilation Ball, and the “sport” is animated brilliantly. I don’t know who came up with the idea of combining chain saws with basketball but for some strange reason it works, at least as it is …

While i’ve never read the book written by Steven King, i’ve watched all of the movies during my childhood. i must say that now that i’ve become a Christian, I regret doing this. I have asked Jehovah God for forgiveness billions of times over.
While the movies were very gorey, …

I understand this is just a remake of a movie that was originally produced in 1963 that starred Peter Sellers as the idiotic but kind hearted Inspector Clouseau.
As I see it, this is another one histerically funny movie that has the character combination of Mr. Bean and Johny English …

Inception has climbed to charts as #3 on imbd top 250 movies of all time. According to the majority vote, Inception is more popular then the amazing, and mind blowing “The Godfather Part II”. Now why is this film so good?
