I really enjoyed watching this movie and have seen it twice or maybe even three times. I really liked it and think it was a really good movie. Everyone that I know that watched it liked it. I wouldn’t say it’s one of the scariest movies I have seen …
Film Vanity Fair
One of my favourite types of films are historical films, or films which are set in some time before the twentieth century as I have always liked the subject history. The film does not even have to be one hundred percent historically accurate but I always tend to enjoy …
The Goonies 1985 Movie
I just saw this movie for the first time last night. My friends and I watched it together. It’s a very cute movie for kids, although there are some scary scenes which means it might not be so good for younger kids.
Each of the characters were quite funny, …
Red Sands movie
This movie contained some of my favourite actors like JK Simmons from Oz and Spiderman, and also the actor Shane West. However, even though I thought the movie wasn’t awful like some others I’ve seen, I still think that it really wasn’t all that great, and I was expecting …

Transporter 3
I must say that the —˜Transporter’ films are my favourite Jason Statham’s movies together with ‘The Bank Job’. I believe that with ‘Transporter 3′ the director, Olivier Megaton and writers, Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen managed to put together the right ingredients that made this movie series so …
The Gift - Psychological Thriller Movie (2015)
I watched the movie, The Gift, because of its interesting trailer and it seemed to be on the cusp of horror (I’m a big fan of horror). I didn’t expect to be extremely impressed by the movie but nearly two hours later, I was definitely satisfied. The Gift is more …
Return To Me
The movie “Return to Me” can be easy described as a ‘mission impossible’ attempt for three persons the director Bonny Hunt and the two main actors, David Duchovny and Minnie Driver. For Bonny Hunt, who is much more known as an actress, this is the first movie …
Ghost World
Watching Ghost World is not quite like watching a chick flick. Although you see American Beauty actress Thora Birch and the sweet and innocent look actress, Scarlett Johansson star. This is kind of an exploration type of movie and I feel that each character in the story has …
Burn Before Reading movie
Like many others I was looking forward to watch the movie ‘Burn After Reading’. This is a comedy where George Clooney and Brad Pitt join forces with the Coen brothers as directors of this movie. Apart from the fact that I much prefer Clooney and Pitt in much …
The Dictator (movie)
The Dictator is a 2012 comedy movie directed by Larry Charles. Sacha Baron Cohen was casted as the main charm of the movie as Aladdin. I only watched him once in Hugo where he was playing the role of a station inspector. A lot of time was passed since I …

Movie “Dinner for Schmucks” (2010)
I had high hopes for this movie. I saw the previews and it looked funny, plus I enjoy Paul Rudd movies and he is the star of this film. Sadly, while his performance and the performance of everyone in the film was wonderful I found it boring. …

LAND OF THE DEAD movie
LAND OF THE DEAD
It seemed that George Romero would never make another zombie film. Twenty years had passed since the release and flop of the over-rated DAY OF THE DEAD and nary a new Romero Zombie film was in sight.
Actually, this film was bouncing around in development for a …
Scary Movie 4
After seeing Scary Movie 4 this past weekend, I was glad to finally see a movie series that gets better with time. Since dumping the Wayan Brothers prior to the third movie, the plots in the Scary Movie series have gotten more mature and focus more on movie spoofs …
Cadillac Records movie
As soon as I heard that this movie was going to be released in theatres, I tried my best to avoid it since I knew it would start the singer/wannabe actress Beyonce Knowles; as I really dislike her and think she ruins every movie she appears in. Nevertheless, some …
The Other Boleyn Girl on DVD
I just watched The Other Boleyn Girl movie on DVD lately as I failed to catch this on theaters when it was shown here in our place. Well, it was having a good audio on DVD and the whole scenes were good to view as there were no interruption.
But …
Johnny English (2003)
Rowan Atkinson’s reputation as a comedy actor is still as good as ever. What I can say about this movie is that it’s got good casting. They got John Malkovich on board. His French accented English is ridiculous but I think that’s more like it when …
Up (Animated Movie by Pixar)
Up is a great animated movie by Pixar. I must say that there is a great content in this movie and that the old man and the little kid is really hilarious. It is not really that funny, but if you watch it closely and watch how the …
Circus Movie
Charlie Chaplin’s Circus is not one of the comedy master’s most famous films, but it is one of my personal favorites. The story is very simple: the tramp (Chaplin) comes to a circus so seek his fortune. While there the most unlikely and crazy adventures take place and I …
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 …
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Before the movie The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was released in theatres and I only saw the trailer, I was anticipating spending money to watch it since I was so sure that it was going to be much better than the first. Everything from the villains to the special effects looked …
The Bourne Legacy (2012)
The Bourne Legacy is actually a huge disappointment. I delayed watching it because I was reading the book. After reading the book by Eric Van Lustbader, the actual movie was a complete disappointment. As a matter of fact, the movie is still a disappointment even without reading the actual …
The Substitute
I am reviewing the movie, The Substitute starring Tom Berringer. This movie is about the horrors of teaching. When Tom Berringer’s girlfriend gets attacked by a group of students, he decides he’s going to step in and take charge as a substitute teacher. What he deals with are …
Shrek the Third
After years of hearing just how bad “Shrek the Third” was I decided that it was time to try the movie myself. I can certainly see why so many people disliked it but it was nowhere near as bad as I had expected.
One of the major problems with this …

The Shawshank Redemption
Can Hollywood, typically creating things for amusement purposes only, create art? To make something of this nature, a chief must come up to it in a most detailed manner, because of the flimsiness of the process. Such an intimidating task requires an tremendously capable artist with an indisputable managerial …
Movie Reaping
I feel like this movie was too much like a remake of the Omen. It just had too much in common with it. I would have rather watched something different. In the previews it looked like it would be something different. I just didn’t care for the movie much …
Amazing Grace by Michael Apted
Amazing Grace by director Michael Apted is based on the true story about William Wilberforce and his quest to end slavery in Britain. Before watching this movie, I knew nothing about slavery beyond the United States. Heroes such as Wilberforce were unknown to me. This movie, with enthusiastic acting …
Non-stop (2014 Film)
Non stop is one of those movies that does a great job in making you paranoid in your everyday routine. After watching it, I was left with deep thoughts and a deeper insight about flying on airplanes. It’s said to be an action, mystery, thriller. Seeing that Liam Neeson was …
Anatomy Movie
Anatomy is one of those horror movies that I really love. It isn’t too graphic, it doesn’t use a lot of harsh language, but it still manages to scare you in ways that other movies can’t. I think part of it is because the movie was made in Germany …
The Musgrave Ritual
I am reviewing The Musgrave Ritual, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. In this episode, Holmes and Watson are off to visit an old classmate of Holmes’ named Musgrave. He and Watson have …
