New Girl, New School, New Clique…you get the point. It’s another one of those chick flicks. “Mean Girls” is a fun watch with many of the stereotypical cliches, but it brings them to life with a capable cast of Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, and Tina Fey.
I can’t exactly …

“Strawberry Panic!” is a cute romantic subtle-drama series, featuring lesbian relationships between girls at an exclusive all-female
affiliated schools. While the lesbianisism theme is a bold step to take for anime, I don’t think the series was good enough. It did evoke much
emotion or attention in the viewer, neither through …

It’s settled; Vincent Price is my favorite actor of all time. There is no actor, past or present, quite like him. In this remake of 1933’s ‘Mystery of the Wax Museum,’ an enthused Price plays Professor Jarrod, a brilliant artist whose wax sculptures seem like real people. …

‘Bride Wars’ is the movie where the main stars, Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson dream to marry at the Plaza Hotel. Unfortunately I expected much more from this movie. I feel that the script lacked a certain amount of magic and there weren’t enough funny moments as expected.

The Borrowers was a 1973 presentation from the Hallmark Hall of Fame, but the first time I saw it was just this week. Though the movie has a wonderful cast, it just wasn’t really my style for some reason.

Children of Dune was a 2003 SyFy channel made-for-tv release based on the books by Frank Herbert. Now I typically shy away from movies based on books and, more specifically, movies that are practically remakes from 1980’s classics, such as the original Dune, but I was shocked by the …

I had about an hour until Ghost Hunters last night so I ended up flipping channels looking for something to watch. I came across an old movie, Tommy, and decided to watch it. At the time, I figured I would watch about half of it and, if I liked …

A lot of people knock this particular season of DALLAS but it really isn’t all that bad. Actually, the only knock it because of what happens in season 10. Ok, let’s explain what this is all about: in the previous season, Patrick Duffy left Dallas to seek other pursuits. He …

I have always liked Hugh Grant’s self deprecating, “am I sure this is where I should be?” persona that he brings to the characters he plays. That is not to say that he is a character actor, he seems to play the same person in every film, but …

The story goes like this: a bunch of scientist discovered an ancient temple in the Pole, they also discovered that over night a giant tunnel leading down to it mistriously appeared. They have no idea of …

Prisoners was one of those films that I kept putting off watching even when I had the time. There was something about the trailer that didn’t make it appear interesting to me even though most if not all of the people in the main roles were very good an popular …

Thunder on the Hill is a movie I love because it stars two actresses whose talents I’ve enjoyed for decades, Claudette Colbert and Ann Blyth. It’s a very dramatic film, even intense in places. As a young girl, it actually startled me a couple of times.
Blyth plays …

“Leatherheads” represent one of the first attemps for the actor George Clooney to be involved in a movie, not just as an actor, but also as a director. I say that after seeing Clooney being involved in a lot of dramatic movies, “Leatherheads” comes across as a surprise since …

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a hidden gem of a movie. Jim Carey, in my opinion, gives the best performance of his career and funny enough, this isn’t a comedic role. Some of the movie has comedic relief, but this is in no way a …

Pretty good movie based on a decent book.
I enjoyed this movie more than I expected to. Julia Roberts isn’t my favorite actor, although I think in the case of Liz Gilbert, she was probably the best choice. I also enjoyed the movie more than I did the …
