13 Going on 30
13 Going on 30 is a delightful comedy that has been done many times before, but still succeeds in getting plenty of laughs.
The movie is about a young girl, Jenna (Jennifer Garner) who goes to bed as an uncool thirteen-year-old and wakes up the next morning in an unfamiliar …
The Garden movie
As far as documentaries go, The Garden, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Film, has everything that I love in this genre of film. It is a film that depicts the battle for a 14 acre piece of land in south central Los Angeles following …
Dr. Dolittle
Dr. Dolittle is a family comedy movie starring Eddie Murphy in the title role. It is a very nice movie and though it appears as kid’s movie, it has universal appeal to it. Eddie Murphy did a great job as Dr. Dolittle. The story starts with a scene from …
View from a top movie
“View from the top” is an average movie about making your dreams comes true. It should convey a strong message of empowerment however the film is not that good. This is one of Gwyneth Paltrow’s movies and, may I say, not one of her best since it was a …
Daniel Craig’s take on James Bond
Right when I had gotten used to Pierce Brosnan as Bond they took him away from me. This after they took away Timothy Dalton, who I thought brilliant, after a mere two films. Even though I disliked many of the Brosnan Bond films, I loved Goldeneye and even found …

George Lopez: America’s Mexican
I love the George Lopez shows, that air on nick. But the stand up I found kind of racy and not to funny. Some parts was more funny I enjoyed the childhood parts but overall I am glad he is proud of his race, but it got to the …

Hell or High Water (2016 Western Heist Film)
2016 is coming to a close, I have been in agreement with my mind to choose the possibly best film of the year to close another trip around the sun.
I initially planned to watch Sully, although later in my choosing I decided to watch a deeper story. Reviews pointed out …
Weather Man: movie
Weather Man, starring Nicholas Cage, was released in number of years ago and was not highly successful in the box office. Perhaps this was because it was such a “different” kind of movie. It wasn’t quite a comedy, though it had some funny parts, and it wasn’t …

Man on Fire film
One of the best action films I have ever seen. Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning are the lead cast in this film and a do a superb job to say the least! Denzel plays a lost man trying to find peace, do to a obvious history of violence and …
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice movie
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, released in 2010, starts out a bit surprisingly in my mind by giving what is essentially a recap of the history of Merlin. I understand it because it is the exposition that really explains what the movie is going to be about, which is Balthazar …
Rope (1948) Movie
I had heard that Alfred Hitchcock’s —˜Rope’ was not one of his best and it is sometimes even said that it is not very good. I gave it a go though as it was on TV recently and I actually thoroughly enjoyed it. I think Hitchcock is …

The Matrix (science fiction action movie)
I remember watching the movie “The Matrix” years ago when I was still a child and being completely impressed by the effects and action and being completely blown out of the water by the storyline. However, the problem is that I never really understood it or understood what the Matrix …
Do Not Disturb movie
Doris Day stars with Rod Taylor in Do Not Disturb. It’s not a big favorite of mine, and it’s not as fun or entertaining as her movies with Rock Hudson and James Garner were. While Taylor’s other outing with Day, The Glass Bottom Boat, was a winner …
Bridge to Terabithia
I watched Bridge to Terabithia ready to get bored and be repulsed with the little knowledge I have about the film. Thanks to false advertising (equivalent to the preview showing the CGI effects), my impression on the film beforehand was that it was going to be another-kiddy-fantasy knock-off.
Still, I …
Bingo (1991 movie)
The first time that I saw the movie “Bingo” was several years ago in either the late nineteen nineties or the early two thousands, and I was not very impressed with the movie. Even when I watched it a little more recently, I still was not impressed with it. …
Never Been Kissed 1999 movie
Never Been Kissed, with Drew Barrymore, is, in a word, cute. The premise (shy girl gets to go back to high school and try again as part of a newspaper assignment) is fun and resonates with the part of me that knows a lot more than I did when …
Groundhog Day movie
Bill Murray stars in this crazy movie about a cynical and snobbish TV reporter whose life is turned upside down when he’s forced to cover the story of Groundhog Day in Pennsylvania. Phil, Murray’s character, believes the story is beneath him. He just wants to get the …

Film Halloween
The last time I saw the 1978 version of Halloween, I was a pre-teen and, to be perfectly honest, couldn’t remember much about the movie.

Just Like Heaven movie
I watch Just like Heaven when I was flipping through channels and saw Resse Witherspoon, whose movies I love, mainly her chick flicks. I thought Just like heaven’s story line was unconventional and yet hard to believe although a bit eager to want to have. I did however end …

The Last King of Scotland (R, 2006) movie

Surf’s Up (2007) movie
One of the best animation movies of all time, and certainly the best from Sony Animation, Surf’s Up was funny, clever, and perfectly edited. The voices matched the characters brilliantly, and the characters themselves were a hilariously mixed and matched. Some of the dialog was truly inspired, …

I just recently finished watching this comedy movie on DVD player. Firstly, I should say that there are only few bits that I really find very funny. I was disappointed though because I was expecting that there could be lots of hilarious stuff. But I think …
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li
I knew going in that this movie was going to be bad, but really, this movie is terrible.
The story is wafer thin, it follows Chun-Li (who’s played by Kristin Kreuk even though the younger version of her is played by an Asian girl) as she tries to find her …
Magnolia (movie)
When I watch a movie I really try to give it a fair chance and will sit through a lot before giving up. I approached the movie “Magnolia” excitedly. It featured William H. Macy, an actor I respect very much, and Julianne Moore who was excellent in “The Shipping …

Cold Souls Movie
