Blue Hawaii is one of my favorite Elvis Presley movies. Part of it is because of the beautiful scenery, part is due to the musical score, part is due to a decent plot, and part is due to Elvis himself.
I’ve been to Hawaii and to the hotel where …
Get Smart (2008 movie)
Get Smart isn’t the latest film out. It actually is a pretty old film as it was released in 2008. Nevertheless, my iTunes balance was running low and I wanted to use my remaining balance on a cheap film.

I’d like to say right away, that this was a very good movie. It was quite dramatic. It’s not the cheesey been-there-done-that drama. It was a genuinely dramatic movie. It is guaranteed to make you cry at one point or another.

Gone Girl (2014 film)

Borderline Cult (R, 2007) movie
If at all possible, never, ever, ever, ever rent this movie. I went online at Netflix, thinking that this was going to be an innovative horror film. I was so disappointed. The beginning is rather stark. There are three serial killers who work …

Freaky Friday (2003 Disney Movie)
I am not quite fond of Lindsey Lohan but in I admire her act in this movie. The swap between a mother and a daughter has been played by her pretty well. The story follows the same theme many Holiday stories have opted for so there is no uniqueness …

A Series of Unfortunate Events the Movie
I have read the entire series of the Series of Unfortunate Events books, and have a strange love for them. They are filled with misfortune and woe, but at the same time a mystery, suspense, and little joys and happiness that make it absolutely fantastic. The movie was—¦well—¦a disaster. …
Joker of the Dark Knight
For superhero lover, Joker isn’t a newbie. He’s arrogant, scary yet frightening. And he’s brilliant though. There are several actor who had played this role in the movie. But comparing all of those actors, the best one for me is the last Joker in Batman’s movie, The Dark Knight, …

The fact that this follows …

Movie How to Deal
Once again, I have to admit, I’m becoming more and more impressed with Mandy Moore whenever I see her in a movie. And, this time it was on Lifetime.
