Some time ago, I watched an interesting South African film called “A Reasonable Man” on one of the Starz channels. The main question that the movie revolved around was ‘who exactly can be defined as a reasonable man in a multi-cultural society?’ and that was something I realised I …

Everyone I knew told me to go see Batman Begins because they thought I would love it. I’m a fan of comic books, and I own nearly every comic book themed movie in the world. Still I could tell from the previews that it was a movie I just …

The director decided to go Vintage style and so this episode is black and white. Right from the start to the end,it is in black and white. Well not much of a difference actually,because the show does not sport bright colors,which is with keeping with the theme of the …

I wanted to watch “Disney’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” ever since it was released because of how exciting it looked when it was advertising to be released in theatres.
The movie was about the thousand year quest of a master sorcerer named Balthazar, to find a young man who will …

“Charlie’s Angels Full Throttle” was supposed to be the sequel to the previous Charlie’s Angles movie “Charlie’s Angels” which was released in the year 2000. I found I liked the sequel much less than I liked the previous movie for very many reasons. One of those reasons was that …

“To Sir with Love” is one of my all time favorite movies. I’ve seen it dozens of times and I still cry every time I see the movie. I think it is the ultimate teacher movie ever. The 1967 Columbia British Productions movie was filmed in color and lasts …

As someone who loves to go to the movies, I am so disappointed in our local movie theater - Dickinson Eastglen 16. Over the past several years, the facility has fallen into a state of disrepair. Several of the faucets in the bathroom no longer work and …

A great family movie for kids and parents to enjoy together is Disney’s The Incredibles. This unique story about a group of retired superheros is not only highly amusing for the older people in the household, but also for the younger ones! The characters, like so many …

Set in the future, Nemesis is about a police officer who is not quite human but part machine. Actually, this is something very common, and until this police officer, named Alex, is injured in a fight with terrorists, he is just as anyone else. But after this he needs …

Naural Radiance Daily Moisturizer does more than just enrich your skin. It contains a darkening agent which slightly tans your skin with prolonged use. Unlike most sunless tanning moisturizer creams, Natural Radiance Daily Moisturizer will not leave your skin with an orange hue.
I had used this product once before, …

I have heard of the movie The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes Smarter Brother before but, even though it has been around as long as I have (about 35 years), I have never really taken the time to watch it. This should come as a surprise to many because I …

Last night I was able to walk down to the local movie theatre and view “The New World.” This was a film I was pretty excited about to see because it was rarely released to local theatres, plus Christian Bale was in it.
Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …

After waiting for one long year, the third (and last?) part of the Pirates of the Carribean trilogy finally arrived. My daughter and I both attended an opening night show. We thought it was great! The effects, as was the case in the first two movies, …

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.
Get Smart remind of of Johnny English. This movie really …

Be Kind Rewind (2008) is a comedy directed by Michael Gondry and is rated PG-13 for some sequal refrences.
Be Kind Rewind focuses on two characters: trouble-making Jerry (Jack Black) , and well-meaning Mike (Mos Def). Mike works in an old, out-of-date movie rental store that only sells VHS, …

This is one of my favorite Jackie Chan’s movie and in Chinese. This movie consisted of combination of ancient and modern China. The story is about Jacko (Jackie Chan) as an archeologist who get confused with his inner memories. He kept dreaming that he used to be a warrior …

We randomly picked a movie to watch on our netflix player last night and ended up with National Lampoon’s The Stoned Age. When we started watching it, I figured it would be like that old movie Caveman, which was funny but pretty lame. It turns out Caveman was a …

This movie is about what happened in 9/11. Nicolas Cage plays the main character. Although the movie isn’t what I expected it to be It was really good and worth watching. I think that the movie is about something important that happened and everyone should see it. They did …

Something To Talk About is a movie about relationships. And if you love horses, you will love the equestrian action in this film! Julia Roberts is Grace, a bored and well to do housewife who works at her family’s horse ranch. She and her husband, Eddie (Dennis Quaid), have …

Finding Nemo is a brilliantly animated saga of emotions, humor mixed with an unconventional story line. It is (as the name suggests) all about Finding Nemo. Nemo is the life of his father who loves and cares for him to the utmost extent possible. But on his very first …

I watched the comedy thriller “The Guard” last night, and while there are many things I have to say about it, I promise to keep my review fairly brief.
The movie was about the strange partnership of an FBI agent, and an Irish policeman with some very unorthodox ways, …

“Big” is a classic 1988 movie starring Tom Hanks. It really elevated Hanks to stardom as an everyman who most people can relate to. Looking back on it now, there are some weak plot points, but the movie also has some iconic scenes that one will not …

This is by far one of the most boring and silliest movies I have seen in a long time. I had watched it before it came out on cable television and DVD too, and had the unfortunate luck of having to sit and watch it again as my brother …

This movie, a sequel in premise only to the earlier Bruce Almighty, is a fun PG rated film to enjoy with the whole family. Morgan Freeman once again plays God, with of course the ability to appear and reappear at will to whomever he desires. Steve Carell reprises his …

Certain elements seem to indicate when a movie franchise has lost its steam and either needs to be retired, or re-evaluated. Unfortunately, with the Superman movie franchise, these elements were ignored until it was too late. Superman III clearly marked these elements. The stars were tired, their performances forced …

I don’t usually watch much of the local television station Lifetime, but I’ve noticed that sometimes there are some interesting movies that are aired even though most of them don’t seem to be given much of a high rating by a lot of sources, including the internet movie database. …

I looked forward to going to see Rango for probably three reasons. Number one of course was getting to hang out with my nephew and secondly I was looking forward to the movie because it looked good in the trailers. The third reason? I was looking …

Wrestling With Shadows directed by Paul Jay is one of the best documentaries that I have ever seen, at first glance you assume the movie is a simple production which follows a wrestler on a day to day basis and chronicles his trouble. However, after watching the movie you …

A boy named Paul is what most people would call a “hill-Billy”, a goofy figure from the country who doesn’t really fit in with the city slickers. He’s attending college, but most of the time his room mates just make fun of him. Pretty much everything in Paul’s life …

This turned out to be somewhat of a disappointment. As a fan of Hunter S. Thompson, upon whose 1961 novel this film is based, and the movie’s lead, Johnny Depp, I was expecting something far zanier and more entertaining (the obvious touchstone being 1998’s “Fear and Loathing in Las …

My wife and I picked out the movie “There Will Be Blood” because it looked and sounded like it would be a great action film.
They should have called the movie “There Will be Boredom.”
I won’t say it was a bad movie, because, from what I saw of it, it …

I’m not what you would call a super duper die hard fan of X-men comics, but I do enjoy the movies and have followed them since the very first one came out. I was excited for the newest movie in the X-men Days of Future Past, when viewing the trailers. …

When I was younger, I used to watch Sherlock Holmes a lot. I loved these movies, and they were on all the time. Then years passed and I’ve only seen it a few times. Oddly, I don’t seem to enjoy these mysteries as I once did, …

This was an excellent movie. I can’t really tell you what it is about because it will ruin the movie. I can tell you that it is about a little girl that is missing. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie. I thought that the movie was going …

This was absolutely one of the best films that I have ever seen. I now understand why there was such hype when the Oscar rolled around. In any case, I really feel that Brad Pitt has his finger on the pulse of quality acting. When I …

It took me quite a very long time to watch the movie celebrity since I have never been interested in the actor Woody Allen as I can remember trying to watch several of his films when I was a little girl and thinking all of them were excrutiatingly boring. …

Synopsis: This Mel Brooks movie is a spoof of the Dracula horror franchise. Leslie Nielson stars as the count and an all star cast tries to stop him from claiming the life of the damsel in distress.
What I liked about this movie: I’m a huge fan of the book …

I am reviewing the Disney movie, 101 Dalmations. I am a huge dog lover and so this movie is perfect for me. I also love the whole London scene, even though I’ve never been there. I would like to go someday. This movie is about Pongo and …

House is a very cool and good movie. I must say I really loved this movie a lot when I saw it. House made me afraid of huge houses. I remember as a kid when I would go to my friend’s huge house. After I saw this film, I …

Joel and Ethan Coen had their breakthrough back in the 1980s with the most visually original and violent thriller Blood Simple. After that they have amazed the world audience with marvellous films like Miller’s Crossing, Barton Fink and The Hudsucker Proxy. In my opinion they have lost some of …

I am reviewing The Blue Carbunkle, a Sherlock Holmes adventure from the boxed set, The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, produced in 1983 by Granada television. It is Christmas time in this episode, and everyone is in the holiday spirit, that is until a precious blue diamond is stolen, and …

The Missing is a movie about a family reconnecting and saving one member of the family from prostitution. The actors in this movie are Tommy Lee Jones, Cate Blanchett, and Evan Rachael Wood. One of the best things about this movie is that it has great characters/actors. Another thing …

I’ve been wanting to see the movie Underdog but never got around to doing that until very recently. I have to say it was worth watching.

Bug movies are a dime a dozen, including ones about killer bees. So are …

I admit I really enjoy watching John Cusack’s movies. He manages to be great in whatever character he interprets. “The Sure Thing” represents one of his early movies so one gets to see Cusack in much younger version together with cute actress, Daphne Zuniga of “Melrose Place” TV series.
“The …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 5 begins with a brief recap of the last episode and then starts with Ed running up to his mother Trisha and showing her a metal toy horse he transmuted. She says she’s proud of him then asks him why he couldn’t make mommy …

Ehit is a online site that allows you to rent movies through the mail just like netflix and blockbuster does. They have a free trial that you can try out the service. They send you two movies in one envelope. I think the cheapest price that they offer is …

I am not very fond of Filipino or local movies ( I live in the Philippines and local movies are called “Tagalog Movies”) but then I have to say that I did enjoy watching one particular movie that I would also like to introduce to the readers of Reviewstream. …
