Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
This trilogy sequel of Pirates of the Caribbean is called At World’s End. I watched it last week with my boyfriend, my sister and her boyfriend. My sister’s boyfriend and I were having sort of like a heated debate over this trilogy, and I just didn’t get …
Forever Strong
There used to be a time when I loved sports movies like Remember the Titans or We Are Marshall but then I came to realize they are all the same; they use some sport to teach kids confidence and give a quick lesson about life.
I had hoped the movie …
Movie Superbad
I watched this movie about two nights ago. It was a lot better than I though it was going to be. There were quite a few funny parts, and it was just fun to watch. Some of the parts weren’t really funny but you enjoyed watching it and it …
Pieces of April
In “Pieces of April” we see the actress, Kate Holmes with an image of a bad girl who has a conflictual relationship with her family. The story of “Pieces of April” is good but unfortunately in certain moments in the middle of the movie it may lose it’s potential …
Sunset Boulevard (1950) Movie
I love this classic old black and white movie and watch it every time it comes on TV. Directed by Billy Wilder (who also directed the fabulous Some Like it Hot amongst others), it tells the story of fictional silent movie star, Norma Desmond - played very melodramatically …
Death Race (Movie)
I saw this movie when it was shown in the big screen and it wasn’t that exciting as I expected it to be. When I first knew that Jason Statham was going to be here I thought it would be a very hot action movie, but it got quite …

Pan’s Labyrinth (R, 2006) movie
What a dark and magical film this is. I had heard things about this movie. And as usual, I waited until the Oscar hype had died down before venturing out and renting it. I am certainly glad I did. This story, placed in 1944 revolves …
I am Because we Are
I am Because We Are is a documentary that is heart-wrenching and hard to watch at times, but that is a very important movie about the suffering in the African state of Malawi. In Malawi, there are 1 million orphans, most of them orphaned by Aids. The country …
17 Again Movie (2009)
This movie made me cry, it is a wholesome comedic funny movie with a love story but it is also tender and romantic, there were scenes that made my teary-eyed and cry here and this is not only good to watch for teens but also adults as well. The …
Movie The Terminal
I read so much good reviews about this romantic movie that ended up with very high expectations while watching. While I must admit that Tom Hanks is simply great, this movie cannot be classified with a great romantic ending.It seems that even the director of this movie Spielberg was …
No Good Deed (2014 Thriller Movie)
While I admire any attempt at diversifying movies so that non white actors have the rare opportunity of playing some of the main roles, that doesn’t mean I thought the 2014 movie “No Good Deed” was any good. As a matter of fact, it had the terrible luck of being …
Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle
“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 …
Murder in Swingtime movie short
Murder in Swingtime is a movie short that features Les Hite and His Orchestra along with vocalist, June Richmond.
The interesting thing is that as you go along, you are led to believe that there is going to be a murder. There is a lot of hype about this. …
Child’s Play (movie)
Child’s Play is one of the first horror movies I saw as a kid. I will always remember this scary movie. Child’s Play is the reason I hate dolls and anything that looks life like. The story is about a killer who is about to die. But before he dies …
Grosse Point Blank
I really thought Grosse Point Blank was a great movie. The reason I loved this movie was because it was so funny! I mean Martin Blank is a crazy hitman who kills for money. And now he might have to doa job in Grosse Point where he is from. So …

I watched this movie about few weeks ago, that’s not my first time I watch this movie, I already watch this movie for about four times, and I always enjoy watching this movie. I had special interest on Japanese custom, and this movie is about the last samurai in …
The Professional: Movie
The Professional is an absolutely fantastic film. Normally, the crime genre isn’t really for me. But this story is beautifully told about an assassin and how his life changes when he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of a 12-year-old girl.
First of all, the acting is excellent. The assassin Leon …
Columbo: Butterfly in Shades of Grey movie
William Shatner does his second stint on Columbo playing a radio show star named Fielding Chase. The show is entitled Butterfly in Shades of Grey and also features Molly Hagan as Fielding’s foster daughter, Victoria. Chase is quite the pompous one, and Shatner wears a silly, somewhat …
Taare Zameen Par
Taare Zameen Par is perhaps the greatest bollywood movie that I have ever watched. It is a movie about a little boy, Ishaan, who is dyslexic, but his parents fail to realise this. As the story progresses you cannot help but laugh at all of the mischief …
Footloose movie
When I was younger I wanted to watch the movie “Footloose” very badly. I was a small child in the early nineties, and would sometimes see the movie going on some Sundays on one of the local channels, but ironically I never got to see it until I was …
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007)
With the previous entry in the series (Dead Man’s Chest) boasting a controversial cliffhanger of an ending, fans who saw Dead Man’s Chest were no doubt clamoring for the epic finale to the trilogy after walking out of the theater one year ago. Indeed, for me it was a …
Cheers for Miss Bishop movie
Cheers for Miss Bishop is a classic film from 1941 which starred Martha Scott in the title role of Ella Bishop. My problem, and pretty much my only problem, is that while the makeup was good, it didn’t quite hook me. We see Scott transform from a …
Liar Liar
Well, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the Jim Carey film Liar Liar and, whene it was on one of our movies channels today, I decided to watch it again.
Somehow, it’s not quite as funny as I remember it being.
The movie does have an interesting premise, Carey plays …

The story of amateur crooks trying to make their way in the criminal underworld is hardly a new thing; and this film is …
The Cutting Edge Movie
Among the Cutting Edge movies that were made (there were three) this is what I like best. I have probably seen it five times already. I enjoy watching this because I like figure skating and The Cutting Edge has plenty of scenes showcasing some fancy maneuvers. It is funny …
The Polar Express (2004 Film)
The 2004 holiday film called “The Polar Express” is a heartwarming and touching film that really captures the pure and innocent magic of the Christmas season through the eyes of a child. It is a movie that the entire family will absolutely fall in love with and give everyone …

Vantage Point movie
For my twenieth birthday, three friends of mine dragged me to the movie theater to see the new 2008 film Vantage Point. I had not heard of the film, but I was not interested. I’d have preferred simply to hang out at a friend’s house and play cards. Begrudgingly, …
The Kingdom (2007)
The strength of “Oil” shows how politics and religion rule the world. Those countries that supply oil versus those who need the use of this most precious commodity reveals to the viewing public why the world is as it is currently.
What you will not see in the news as …
Schindler’s List
I can remember my mother constantly telling me about this movie over the years. However, I never seemed to see it on television or cable so I didn’t watch it for a very long time. It was apparently supposed to be one of the best war movies too, however, …

Wanted: Movie
I thought Wanted was a very good, interesting and overall rather unique kind of film.
I hadn’t seen the plot before, but was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be an excellent watch.
It has a lot of bizarre aspects to it, and I know a couple of people who …
Catch Me If You Can
“Catch Me If You Can” is a by product of a mixture of Tom Hanks and Leonardo diCaprio talents together with the great talents of the director Steven Spielberg. I must admit that I really had high expectations about this movie. After watching it, I must say that “Catch …
Hitch Movie
One of the best and my favorite comedians and actors is Will Smith, he can do comedy as if he was born to do it and act comically, he also has great skills as with Bad Boys and Hancock, and here on Hitch I think this movie really suited …
American Psycho
Christian Bale shines in this movie, being a very ‘bad’ person, if you get what I mean. I think he’s a real psycho deal in this movie, and his character is really so convincingly bad, that I think most good looking guys like him are real bad. This …
Frozen 2013 Animation (Movie)
After my cousin told me that an animation movie titled “Frozen” is leading the box-office. I knew this movie had some great odds of getting on top of my best animation movies list with “Tangled”. Tangled was released in 2010 with a great funny, hooking story and heart conquering …
