Ready to Rumble (2000)
If you like pro wrestling in any way, shape or form, and this movie is just for you, yup, it is right up your alley and it will or will not prove to be a good thing. As this movie would have it, two sewage workers are extremely upset …
Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy [Garth Jennings, 2005]
Please don’t watch this film. Listen to the radio series, read the books, or watch the BBC television series as a far more worthy introduction to Douglas Adams. Alternatively, watch paint dry.
There are a few good things about the film. The visioning of things like the Heart of Gold …
Mash the movie
The movie MASH is a classic and has only been outdone by the television series that spun off from it. It’s one of the best war movies ever made.
The movie has just the right amount of comedy and drama to be enjoyable to everyone who watches it, both young …
Denver the Last Dinosaur
Denver the Last Dinosaur is a great cartoon about a dinosaur who lives in the modern world. He is a very friendly and cute dinosaur. I really liked this show because it was a very happy and cool show. Denver the Last Dinosaur is one of the best cartoon characters …
Return To Me
The movie “Return to Me” can be easy described as a ‘mission impossible’ attempt for three persons the director Bonny Hunt and the two main actors, David Duchovny and Minnie Driver. For Bonny Hunt, who is much more known as an actress, this is the first movie …
Sex and the City the movie
I am the fan from Sex and the city TV serial. I always watch it every season and never nissed it. When it will be making in movie, I’m happy because it’s been four years those serial is ended.
Like the serials, sex and the city the movie still starred …
The Amazing Spider Man 2 movie
When the first series of Spiderman movies came out in the early 2000’s, my husband and I were quick to go see them. However, after the first two it became more of a run on series rather than a well thought out movie series. It was my exhaustion …
Liar Liar movie
Jim Carrey is always my favorite actor, and this movie named “Liar Liar” is one of his brilliant works. It is a story of a lawyer, who is very efficient, when it come to lying. He always lies about everything, even to his divorced wife and kids, and he …

RomeoXJuliet Episode 23 begins with Conrad preparing for Juliet’s coronation, meanwhile Juliet heads to the Escalus tree to sacrifice herself to keep Neo Verona from falling apart and Tybalt tells Romeo of Juliet’s intentions and he goes to stop her.

Blue Hawaii movie
Blue Hawaii is one of my favorite Elvis Presley movies. Part of it is because of the beautiful scenery, part is due to the musical score, part is due to a decent plot, and part is due to Elvis himself.
I’ve been to Hawaii and to the hotel where …
Hot Shots Part Deux
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …
Resident Evil Movie
Resident Evil is one of the best movies based on a video games I have ever seen. Usually movies based on video games suck. But this movie truly being the hardcore action to the table. I really like how they go back to how everything started. The story in the …
The Nanny Diaries
The Nanny Diaries reminds me very much of my first few jobs. I think it is such an awesome movie and I love Scarlett Johansson’s acting tremendously. I love it very much and it is such a good and funny movie which made me laugh very much. …
Brick (the film)
Title: Brick
Genre: Independent/Drama
Director: Rian Johnson (2005)
Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Brendan Frye in this extremely stylized murder-mystery. Still in high school he assumes the role of detective when he stumbles upon his ex-girlfriend and first love, Emily (played by Emilie de Ravin of Lost), dead.
The only thing Brendan was known …
Up (2009) movie
I went to see this movie early June after hearing wonderful things about it. I had previously watched the Pixar’s other movie WALL-E and loved it, so I had great expectations. I figured Up would also have some kind of global message such respecting the environment in WALL-E; why …
Taken 3 (action movie)
When the trailer for Taken 3 was released, I didn’t get the feeling that it would have been as big as the first one was. Then after it was released, I noticed that it had gotten some fairly low ratings from viewers on various sites such as IMDB. Nevertheless, this …
Barbie as The Island Princess
Love this Barbie as The Island Princess very much. I might be old enough to be called someone’s girlfriend or wife or mother, but I still could not get enough dosage of Barbie.
Whenever there are new DVD movies or mini movies out there featuring Barbie, or just …
Chiedimi se sono felice movie
Yesternight, I watched this movie, from three Italian Actors that are rather famous here in Italy. They are called by their first names, know as Giacomo, Aldo and Giovanni, which are in fact also their characters’ names in the films they’re also (!) making on their own.
I had seen …
Troy (2004)
Troy (2004)
Director: Wolfgang Petersen. Featuring; Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Orlando Bloom, Brian Cox, Brendan Gleeson and Diane Kruger.
The movie is structured as a classic epic movie about love and war. Although this one is more about the loving than the fighting. The story is set in the time when …
Movie: “Bride Wars”
Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway star in this lackluster, predictable comedy in which best friends become enemies when they accidentally book their weddings on the same date. Determined to upstage each other, they pull all kinds of unpleasant tricks to try and ruin the other’s wedding.
I had several issues …
Barney CD
This cd is from the Hit TV series. In this cd the new character BJ is introduced for the first time. He is yellow all over, has purple spots, a bright green tummy and red sneakers, Barney’s new dinosaur friend. Everyone of us have some …
Jerry Maguire
It’s quite sad that Tom Cruise ain’t acting in movies as gorgeously good as Jerry Maguire anymore. I caught this movie when it was first released on theaters and then later caught it on again on DVD. I was not bored at all watching it.
The storyline …
Batman Begins Movie
Batman has been a popular icon for almost an decade. I’ve practically seen almost every Batman movie there is. First there was Michael Keaton in the firt one and the sequel and then there was Val Kilmer in the others, and then there is Chirstain Bale in this one. …
Movie: BioDome
Synopsis: Two underachievers break into a bio dome and are locked in for one year.
What I liked about this movie: This is actually a pretty decent film about our environment. The two men don’t care a thing about protecting the environment and end up causing chaos wherever they are, …
The Warriors (1979 film)
The Warriors, a 1979 film directed by Walter Hill, is an action film that depicts gang warfare in New York City. This timeless film, set in an alternate world where flamboyantly dressed gangs run rampant throughout the city, artfully balances between gritty realism and surreal fantasy. The …
Washington Square movie
This is a remake of the 1949 classic titled “The Heiress,” starring Olivia de Havilland. While the original is hard to beat, the remake is actually not too bad. Of course, there are some rather questionable additions and a definite feminist touch, but what else can you expect from …
Role Models
Role Models made me laugh like crazy. I watched with a group of friends and we were basically just making a “wild guess” that this movie is going to work out. We were actually wanting to watch another movie show, but this one was available so it was …
The Reef (thriller movie)
So I thought “Well, here we go again! Another shark movie” This time however, I was astonished to find that I really dug this one. It is nicely suspenseful and like a few others of its kind, too unnervingly real. It is billed as being based on real-life events. Kudos …
By the sea Movie
A neat little British comedy from the early 1980s about a family going on a trip to the sea to spend their holiday there. This trip leads to a lot of confusion and misunderstandings that has a lot of the dry british touch to it impossible to mistake for …
Movie Harvey
Harvey is a delightful motion picture from 1950 that stars James Stewart and Harvey, the invisible rabbit. It’s true. The rabbit gets excellent billing in the movie.
Stewart plays Elwood P. Dowd, who is unusually pleasant about absolutely everything. He’s never in a hurry, and he never …
Baccano! Anime TV Series
Baccano! Is a Japanese anime that tells the story about a group of individuals riding on a commuter train, the Flying Pussyfoot. It’s a train traveling from Chicago to New York in 1932. The story is about a huge gang war that is brewing between the …
“Valentine” Motion Picture
I watched this movie because I like David Boreanaz and have enjoyed watching him in the tv shows Bones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. He is a fine actor who seems to only be able to do drama and horror but he does a good job. Anyone …
Notting Hill movie
“Notting Hill” is one of my favourite all time romantic comedies. I think I like it so much because it presents a very straight forward story with a nice comic touch in it. Even though this movie is all about Julia Roberts and Hugh Grants acting abilities, it also …
Tropic Thunder movie
I sat down to watch Tropic Thunder last night with my wife with a high expectation. this was mainly due to the cast, the sheer number of big names in the movie guarenteed a high audience. Everyones favourite comedians were there and i wasnt disapointed.
It didnt give me the …
Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides movie
This is a movie that i’ve been waiting for, but sadly Indonesian government block the Motion Picture Association (the company that bring movies from Hollywood) for not paying taxes. Luckily i have internet connection which allow me to watch the movie from Torrent. Although the movie quality is low, …
Movie Taxi Driver
Martin Scorsese’s masterpiece Taxi Driver is probably not only one of his greatest film technically, but also artistically. The social comentary of the film is unsurpassed, which says a lot considering the vast number of social-commentary oriented films made during the 1970’s. Taxi Driver worked not only as a …
The Man in the Iron Mask
I infer the story behind the man in the iron mask is so interesting that it made it to the big screen multiple times. This one version I watched at least made me think so. I had a good time watching this version directed by Randall Wallace; …
House Movie
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 …
Still Alice (drama movie)
I was a little hesitant to watch the movie “Still Alice” because I thought that a story about someone experiencing early onset Alzheimer’s Disease was bound to be too frightening and depressing for me. The idea of losing myself and my memory especially at a young age is one of …
Love You to the Stars and Back (2017 Filipino Romantic Comedy Film)
I am always wary in spending money watching local films. However, my sister dragged me to watch this movie called “Love You to the Stars and Back” (I know such an awfully long title that doesn’t match the movie at all - Philippine local films have plenty of that) yesterday …
Paul Mooney: Analyzing White America (NR, 2002)
I had seen Paul Mooney’s other comedy DVD and was quite pleased. Ordinarily, I like Mooney’s brand of sarcastic humor, and his blatant and frank opinions about the state of society. However, this DVD, which delves deeply into issues concerning white people (and their differences from other …
The Horror Within
When I decided to watch the movie The Horror Within the other night, it was with the expectation it would be a low-budget, cheesy horror flick.
I was partially right. It was low budget and cheesy but it was more of a comedy than a horror movie.
Let’s face it, whenever …
Pride and Prejudice (2005 Film)
Before watching the 2005 film, “Pride and Prejudice” assumptions where made about how the film would be boring and dragging on for the entire two hours and nine minutes that would be spent watching it. I had honestly assumed that it would be similar to all other great love …
Asterix and the Olympics
First, I can’t remember the first Asterix movie I watched, but I remember it was very funny. I’m disappointed by this one though, more details later. If you’ve read their comics, then you know that Asterix and Obelix are a lovable character from the Gaul village in …
Locked Up (NR, 2004) movie
Ohhh boy. I guess I should go ahead and warn you that this movie is a very low-budget yet hardcore German gay film. While not necessarily a pornographic movie, there are some rather explicit scenes, and one in particular that is really jarring to watch, no …
Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn Part 1 (movie)
I did not get a chance to go and see Breaking Dawn part 1 while it was in theaters, so my anticipation had been building ever since I saw the previews for the DVD release. I, myself, did not end up purchasing the movie; instead, a relative of mine …
