Exam (movie)
After watching the movie Exam last night, I can’t help thinking that it was one of the best psychological thrillers that I watched in a long while. This was despite the barely above average rating that it had received on its IMDB page. I think that the rating was …
The Angel of Pennsylvania Avenue
From 1996, The Angel of Pennsylvania Avenue was a nice little holiday film that portrays itself to be based on a story about Bernice Feagan. I was curious and did some research. It seems that Bernice didn’t even know this movie was made until it was done. …

Spider-man: Homecoming - (Movie 2017)
It almost seems every few years we have a new Spider-man franchise. While I’m definitely a fan of the days where Toby Maguire graced the screens as Peter Parker/Spider-man, Spider-man: Homecoming took me to a more refreshing look at Spider-man himself.
The Spider-man franchise starring Maguire and …

Happy Feet
I can’t help but watch animated movies with my kids, because they usually hide the remote control if they play something! Talk about manipulative kids! And so one day, I ended watching the animation “Happy Feet” with them. It’s a story of penguins of rare breed and species, losing …
American Graffitti movie
American Graffitti was all the rage when it came out, but it did little for me. In truth, I didn’t see it for a long time after the release, and it may have suffered from overkill. By that, I mean that there was so much publicity for …

Enchanted
I have heard mixed reviews about Enchanted around the web, so I decided to add my two cents. I thought this was a beautiful movie. It includes all the romanticism a Disney “princess” movie should, while adding the real life element to set it apart, and including references to …
Rec 2 Movie
This movie was better than the first one. There were downsides to it however. For instance, the camera shots were for the most part unoriginal. Could you do better than having a bloodied zombie-faced possessed person grab the camera and make faces? The blocking was …

Jake Spanner, Private Eye movie
Robert Mitchum starred in 1989’s Jake Spanner, Private Eye which had a unique opening of having Spanner dreaming and using excerpts from Mitchum’s movies as the dream. That was intriguing. Before the viewer has a chance to really chuckle and enjoy that, the credits start and, wow, …

Easy-A: Movie
Easy-A is a teen-comedy that I found mildly interesting to watch, and only because it was aimed at my particular age group.
It’s very easy-to-watch and has a lot of teenage humour that can keep the interest, but of course without the topic of sex this wouldn’t really be worth …
Movie : XII (2008 Slasher Movie)

There is a plot of course, …

Disneynature. When I first heard about the addition to the Disney name, I was unsure of it. Yet after seeing African Cats which was released in 2011, I fell in love with the studio. I couldn’t wait to see the other documentaries that were made under the studio’s name. …
Devil (2010 Film)
I remember hearing about the film Devil from a friend who refused to take the elevator one day. I hadn’t heard of it and was amused that a single film could scare a person into not wanting to ride an elevator, but instead take the stairs. As a person who …
The Little Mermaid
