Despicable Me movie
Another entertaining and cute animated movie I have watched is Despicable Me. Honestly, when I saw the trailer I wasn’t really interested because I found it to be really simple. But then again, I realized I was all wrong with my thoughts because it was a movie that …

Movie: The Best Years of our Lives

Highlander Endgame
I actually really liked this movie. The film seeks to bring together the original movie (with Christoper Lambert) and the Highlander series. They (wisely, I might add) pretty much completely ignore Highlander 2 and 3. They pick up from the end of the first movie and, …
G.I. Jane Movie
In what could probably be described as her “Showgirls” come back, Demi Moore stars as Jordan O’Neill, a naval sergeant who becomes the test subject of female allowance into the elite Navy Seals program.
This excellent action-drama is one of Moore’s best performances, in my opinion. As O’Neill, she struggles …

House of Wax
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. …
Prom Night (2008), slasher film
There is nothing as scary as J.S. Cardone’s remake of the classic 1980 horror film, Prom Night. A modern scary film that advertised itself as one of the best remakes of our time is about as dull as your real prom. Can the unrated blu-ray version of this film …
An Erotic Werewolf in London Movie DVD
I didn’t like this movie since I believed it was more of a female exploitation movie, which I wasn’t interested in. This was because it contained a lot of female nudity scenes as well as lesbian scenes which made it more resemble soft core pornography than a horror movie. …

Wild Hogs
This movie, which features Tim Allen, John Travolta, and Martin Lawrence, was very popular in the theatres, which was part of why I decided to go see it.
The trailers looked okay, not particularly great but I’ve never really believed in picking movies based on trailers anyway.
The story goes: four …
Parents movie
Parents is a very old scary movie. But by todays standards it’s looked upon as a comedy instead of a horror movie. It’s a very dark yet funny movie. I guess that is why it’s called a dark comedy. But when I watched this film as a kid, I thought …

The Dilemma is newly out of cinemas (Depends where you live) here in South Africa. The trailer was very ammusing, and i thought the movie would be hilarious.

Movie: “Hostel II”
Although it takes a little while to get going, “Hostel II” was a horrifying and satisfying sequel to the first movie.

I like John Cusack as an actor and I always enjoy watching Dustin Hoffman. I also enjoy watching a good acotr like Gene Hackman. There is a movie called Runaway Jury that has all three of these men in it.

Westworld Movie
Filmed in 1973, the movie makes a decent attempt of portraying the future where very realistic, human-like androids serve for entertainment purposes.

The Counterfeiters (2007) Movie

Movie A time for dancing
The key message behind the movie “A time for dancing” is that if you believe enough, you can make your dreams come true. Although this film conveys a very noble message to youth, however it lacks a strong script.
The story of this movie is about two best friends, Sam …
