The Gingerdead Man movie
First off, the fact that the star of this movie is Gary Busey should tip you off as to what kind of a movie it’s going to be. If that doesn’t, then the fact that he plays a talking homicidal cookie should. After being executed for a murder spree/ …

“Adam” Movie
The movie Adam is very interesting. It is about an adult with Aspergers syndrome which is similar to autism or some may call it high functioning autism. This movie was unique because they portrayed a normal man, not a genius or an idiot savant, but …
A Little Princess,1986
This is a good adaptation of the classic novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, far better than the 1995 version that for some reason turns the main character into a blonde and changes the ending. (Moviemakers, do us all a favor: if you want to change stuff, write your own …

Flushed Away movie
Flushed Away is one great movie for me. I like Kate Winslet as an actress and in this cartoon movie she dubbed the voice of the female rat named Sid. I like the movie because I like to learn English more and here in this movie they were using …
National Lampoon’s Stoned Age Unrated, comedy film
A movie so bad they decided to call it something completely different when it was released on video. Stoned Age is the comedy to bear the National Lampoon name. At one time this name met something but now you can see why the National Lampoon series is dreaded by …

Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
Neither a brilliant film in its own right or high scorer in the genre, The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue or Let Sleeping Corpses Lie as it is sometimes known, is a passable enough zombie movie that should prove watchable enough at least to any zombie fan. The story …
Movie Children of the Corn
While i’ve never read the book written by Steven King, i’ve watched all of the movies during my childhood. i must say that now that i’ve become a Christian, I regret doing this. I have asked Jehovah God for forgiveness billions of times over.
While the movies were very gorey, …
Royal Wedding movie
Royal Wedding is one of the classic musicals from 1951 which is actually now in the public domain, which is why it’s often included in DVD compilations. That’s how I watched it recently, in fact. I’m sure I probably saw this as a child because I adore …

Mystery Science Theater 3000
When I was in high school, one of my favorite shows on TV was Mystery Science Theater 3000. Yet, when they made a movie based on the series, I didn’t get a chance to watch it; until now.
While as funny as the show itself, the movie, which has the …

The Forgotten (movie)
The Forgotten is a movie you will want to forget. Okay, in fairness to The Forgotten and the people who made the film as well as the actors playing in it, it’s not that bad. The Forgotten is a good rainy day movie where you can sit with your …
National Treasure movie
National Treasure is widely acknowledged as a bad movie. If you go into this movie expecting the next Indiana Jones, then yes, you will be disappointed and while I agree that it is not perfect, I found to be an entertaining movie. The movie is basically about …

Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead
I was told that this movie was incredibly good. I knew that there was some kind of twist in the plot. But I will admit that when I was told this, I interpreted it to mean that there would be some sort of surprise ending. …
Thor The Dark World (2013 Film)

Movie Step Up
I admit that I only watched this movie because the second one will soon be on the big screen. I only watched it in case that “Step Up 2 The Streets” makes some kind of reference to the first original movie.
I must admit that I was …

Shrek Forever After in 3D Movie
My brother gave me passes for the premiere of Shrek Forever After, the final chapter in the ogre-starring computer-animated movie franchise. We managed to see the 3D version.
One thing I can say about the movie is that it is definitely better than Shrek 3. There are more funny moments …

Fun with Dick and Jane movie
Yes, this movie was funny but I miss the old Jim Carrey. This is not nearly as funny as some of his prvious hits like Liar, Liar or Ace Ventura. This movie is more up to par with Bruce Almighty so it definitely has its funny parts …
Hairspray (2007)
This movie is absolutely amazing.
Firstly, the casting of the characters was simply perfect. There’s no denying the newly-discovered Nikki Blonsky IS Tracy Turnblad. She can act, and she can sing (BOYYY, can she sing!). John Travolta is hilarious as Edna Turnblad, and he can really move in that fat …
Night and the City Movie
I had some free time this weekend while hanging out with my youngest daughter (it was raining out or I would have taken her outside instead). While taking care of her, I ended up watching a movie from the 1950s, Night and the City.
I had heard of this movie …

Happily N’ever After DVD
We just bought this on DVD. It looked kind of funny, but I honestly wasn’t expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised.
George Carlin, Sigourney Weaver, Andy Dick, Freddie Prince Jr. and others lend their voices to the cast. Which, by the way, really was beautifully cast!
The animation …
The Strangers 2007 DVD
I was really anticipating this movie, not enough to go see it in theaters but that is an entirely different post. The previews revealed enough to get me interested but they didn’t show all the best parts, which seems to be a running theme these days. It …
Man Of Steel - 2013 Movie
The fondness of the mass audience for heroes and brave men have been known since antiquity, but few can compare with the potential embedded in Superman, which, like a phoenix, is again back on the big screen, despite the deafening cash failure of its last installment.
There were TV shows …
Hancock
Does Will Smith ever make a bad movie? Other than Ali, I mean. I watched his movie Hancock tonight and, when I got it I didn’t think it was going to be any good. It turned out to be a great film.

After seeing it a couple …
Silver Streak Movie
Silver Streak is one of my favorite movies. It turned 30 years old this year, but is still fresh and fun to watch. I just watched it again just a few minutes ago and laughed and enjoyed it as if were the first time I’d seen it.
I fell in …
Tiger Warsaw movie
I remember vividly the conversation I had with the clerk at Blockbuster about Tiger Warsaw. I was in the process of becoming a huge Patrick Swayze fan and was renting some of his movies that I hadn’t seen. She warned me about Tiger Warsaw, telling me it …
Call Me Madam musical
In 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox released the marvelous musical, Call Me Madam with Ethel Merman, Donald O’Connor, and Vera-Ellen. It’s high-powered, high-energy, and high-five fun. I love these kind of innocent musicals where the story is lighthearted and the songs merry. Oh, there’s some heartbreak and drama …
Film “Ginger Snaps”
Ginger Snaps is one of the best older movies I’ve seen this month. Every October I watch a lot of horror movies in honor of halloween and this year for the first time I watched Ginger snaps because Netflix recommended it to me. The story follows two …
Not Another Teen Movie
Not Another Teen Movie is basically self-explanatory. It’s a spoof movie mixing the popular teen movies like Cruel Intentions, Bring It On, American Pie, and Never Been Kissed to name a few. The movie stars Chyler Leigh as Janey Briggs (who is portrayed as this stereotyped ugly and nerdy/artsy …
