The other night I watched a very unique movie called Pan’s Labyrinth, or El Laberinto del fauno. I really enjoyed this movie. Pan’s Labyrinth was out in 2006. The movie is set in the time of the Spanish civil war. Pan’s Labyrinth primarily follows the …

Halloween is coming up in about a month and, because of that, I ended up putting a movie on my Netflix list for my daughter “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.”
Sure, I could probably find this movie at any given time on several television stations closer to the holiday. …

I am reviewing the Disney movie, Toy Story 2. Like most sequels, this movie isn’t as good as the original Toy Story, but it is still clever and good. Buzz and Woody are buddies in this film. There is a new puppy in the picture, and it …

This movie, similar the La Femme Nikita, tells the story of a young woman with a violent nature who was taken off the streets after she was caught and arrested for violent crimes. It was staged that she was executed by lethal injection, when in actuality; she was transferred …

To give props where props are do: I really like the idea of Mutilation Ball, and the “sport” is animated brilliantly. I don’t know who came up with the idea of combining chain saws with basketball but for some strange reason it works, at least as it is …

I won’t say that I tried to like this movie, because I could tell right away that it would be one of those films that tries to be campy. The movie, which centers on this one chick (who can remember their names) who is looking for her …

On the surface, the movie Night of the Comet should be nothing more than a B rated horror flick with no real redeeming qualities. Let’s face facts, having the Earth overrun by zombies isn’t exactly a unique concept.
But, after watching the movie for the first time this past weekend, …

THE MOVIE

What is the big deal about the movie Rocky? I don’t understand why anyone would want to watch people beat each other up. And, if you haven’t noticed, the acting is not great. So what is the point? I think Sylvester Stallone was pretty hot when he was younger …

Before I watched the movie “Blood Diamond” I don’t think I had ever heard about the war over diamonds coming from the African country Sierre Leon. In fact, I think people always seemed to be a bit more focused on genocide in other African countries. One thing that the …

The movie “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” was the first Dr. Seuss live action film I have ever seen. It starred the actor Jim Carrey and it came out when I was still a teenager in high school. I can remember that the movie was so popular that there …

I recently watched the DVD of “Girl with a Pearl Earring” (2003). Directed by Peter Webber, who recently directed “Hannibal Rising”, the movie tells the story of a young woman, a girl really who served as the model for the famous Vermeer painting of the same name.
Scarlett Johansson …

My daughter was watching Inspector Gadget (on DVD) when I got home for lunch today so I ended up watching the episode “A Star is Lost” with her.
This one is actually quite funny.
Like most other Inspector Gadget episodes, Gadget is trying to stop MAD from committing some major crime. …

“Capitalism: A Love Story” is Michael Moore’s newest documentary. And in true Michael Moore fashion it does not disappoint. Not many movies get a round of applause at the theater, but this one did. This was a great movie. My boyfriend was on the edge …

I’m going to open this review with a plea to Hollywood. The next time you make a horror film, please make an effort to scare me. Don’t cut corners and produce a film that goes out of its way to show as much blood and gore as possible. That’s …

After a long while, I’m back here, just to write a short review about the film “Alexander” from Oliver Stone. The film is about Alexander the Great.
Many meaningfull historical event are forget, and I think that Alexander was not that mad man.
The photography is at the level of Oliver …

Tom Dodge is the 2nd in command of a nuclear sub for many years; sadly, he has always been passed over by the selection board in assigning him a vessel of his own to command until it came to be that his name is selected eventually. He get his …

Alfred Hitchcock’s —˜Rope’ is usually hailed as a classic among his work, getting on top ten lists and people still being talked about today. Sadly all that seems to be discussed is his famous use of the ten minute take, and the gay subtexts the film exhibits in relation …

I sometimes enjoy watching children’s movies, especially when they have some wittiness and humor aimed at adults. Looney Toons: Back in Actio was a really fun movie, and appropriate for both children and adults. The movie featured Looney Toons characters such as Yosemite Sam, the Tazmanian Devil, Marvin the …

I’ve seen this movie last week, with some friends in the local multiplex. Well, this one, is probably one of those movies you watch and enjoy while watching it, and you forget the moment the credits start to roll. There isn’t anything much, or memorable about this movie (well, …

Recently, I was with a group of friends and we were searching for a scary movie to watch. We were looking through the Netflix “instant viewing” horror page, and one of my friends picked out the film Grave Encounters. It was a straight to DVD horror film, and it …

There was too much gossip and too much type before this movie was even screened and I didn’t really like these type of movies as I don’t like all those Qi stuff, but I still watched this as I would always give something the benefit of the doubt and …

I enjoyed this movie so much because it was a great learning experience for me. Muhammad Ali was always a name I was familiar with but did not know alot about. I decided to watch this film because I am a fan of Will Smith and was curious about …

This is it, I’m not even holding myself by immediately saying, “I found my favorite film of the year.” Because what guys? It’s everything and more that I wanted from director John Carney. I’m still definitely in awe since last night, and when I woke up this morning, I found …

Precious is not a movie that I probably would have chosen to see, had it not won so many awards. However, it did, and I became curious and I am glad I did see it. It is a sad, yet inspiring story that will make you stop and think twice …

The best thing this movie had going for it was the cast. Top rated actors putting on exceptionally fine performances kept this movie from being confused with its contemporary counterpart. The Prestige. Edward Norton always does well, no matter what role he plays. He is what I call an …

I am reviewing The Case of the Belligerent Ghost, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

Anyone who’s a fan of Madonna or Quentin Tarantino has probably found their careers to lead them to a film called Four Rooms. It’s basically a vignette of sorts: Four rooms in a hotel are rented out on New Year’s Eve, to four groups of guests. The …

Romantic comedies are the way to America’s heart. There are at least five out on any given weekend and after seeing every trick in the book and laughing at every predictable joke Hollywood has thrown our way, we are still eager to tune in for another heart-tugger starring any number …

I have always loved animated movies. I have heard of this movie How to Train Your Dragon and it actually was on IMAX theatres because it was 3D. I did not see it in 3D but it is alright because I am not really keen on watching it like …

Considered by many to be the most cruel anime ever made, Elfen Lied contains some of the most disturbing violence ever animated. That said it is also one of the truly beautiful and powerful pieces of art and story that I have ever seen.
Based on the manga by Lynn …

War, starring Jet Li is a movie about gangs based in San Francisco, California. The movie starts with FBI agents trying to capture the Rogue, Jet Li.
This movie has many action scenes and some of the fights can be a little gruesome. What more can you ask in an …

I adore Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There’s enough ‘people’ drama and ’supernatural’ drama all rolled into one. The comedy makes it easy to watch. You get really involved in the characters. I love the way the product is packaged. I haven’t fully explored the special features options but they …

I first saw Robots when it came out at the theater and instantly fell in love with it. You can’t go wrong when Robin Williams voices one of the main characters, especially when you back it up with lots of color and a unique plot.
The movie takes place on …

I recently caught this movie while flipping through HBO, and I had to write a review on it since I’m an avid vampire fan.
Cirque du Freak is a very unique vampire film for it deals with a number of issues that plague teenagers today, like friendship, parents, life and …

I love creature movies, those scary movies where some giant animal or a bunch of tiny ones run rampant and gobble up a bunch of people. They often are free of blood and gore (something too common these days in other types of horror movies) and are just scary …

I can’t help comparing Premonition to another Sandra Bullock’s movie, also a recent one, called The Lake House. Both movies have a fantastic twist to them, dealing with different timelines. Both need to be watched very closely in order not to have the two timelines confused. In both movies, …

I went to see “The Avengers” with mixed expectations-I saw it in 3D, and was prepared for lots of the visual spectacle you would hope for from a superhero blockbuster. But the last film I saw in 3D was “Avatar,” which is a case study on how stunning visuals …

The best words to describe the movie “The Game Plan” is a “Big Daddy” story only better and better. I feel that the true assits of this movie are the great acting skills and excellent on screen chemistry between the actor, Dwayne Johnson and the young actress, Madison Pettis. …

Joanne and Walter moves to the little peaceful town called Stepford, and everything seems to be in perfect harmony. Joanne is a little bit worried though, when it seems all women in the town are constantly in their homes and taking care of their husbands.
A very unpleasant film to …

I am not sure if there is a Deja vu, in real life, or that time could be traced back to where we wanted things not to happen. This is the case for the movie Deja vu, which stars my favorite actor, Denzel Washington.
This movie is about Denzel, …

“Hitch” represents Will Smith’s attempt at romantic fiction and, may I add, not a bad attempt at all! This movie meant a lot for the actors, Eva Mendez and Kevin James because afterwards they received more challenging roles.
In this movie, we see how Smith stars as Alex ‘Hitch’ Hitchens …

How often does a movie come along that you can watch it 5 times in one day and not ever get tired of it? I think the music is what makes this movie so good. And of course, the dancing. And Patrick Swayze. Oh my goodness, he is gorgeous …
