Mamma Mia! The Movie
I have loved Abba songs as a young girl and it was a nice surprise to find out that a movie has been made using some of their songs. Later I discovered that the movie was actually based on a successful stage musical! (Wish I could watch that someday).
We …
4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days (2007)
I didn’t know abortion was not allowed in communist Romania and prosecuted strongly by law. But I knew about the cooperative living in student housing, the muddy streets, the black market of foreign goods, the segregation of “educated” and “ordinary” folks, the fear to be a woman and walk …

Strawberry Shortcake: Big Country Fun

The Hulk 2008
When I first saw the movie “Hulk” being advertised before it came out in theatres, I thought that it was actually a sequel to the previous movie which came out a couple years before in the year 2003. However, after seeing it advertise a few more times I realized …
Movie The Enforcer
The Enforcer with Clint Eastwood and Tyne Daily.
Of the Dirty Harry series, I suppose that this sequel is the most tame. It deals with political correct issues and the gentler side of Inspector Harry Callahan. When the opening scene proved to be vintage …

This is the everyday life among some individuals in a circus companionship. The basic idea is the same as Fellini’s La Strada or Bergman’s Sawdust & Tinsel. The Greatest Show on Earth was directed by the legendary silent filmmaker Cecil B. Demille (during his sound period however) and is …
The Other Sister movie
“The Other Sister” is my favorite movie of all time. The acting in this movie couldn’t get much better. This movie features outstanding performances from Juliette Lewis, Diane Keaton, Tom Skerritt, and Giovanni Ribisi. I absolutely adored the expression and naivety played by both Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi. …
Dolores Clairbourne
I watched the movie “Dolores Clairbourne” for the second time recently with my brother. I watched it because it was based on the novel by the popular horror and thriller writer Stephen King who is one of my favourite authors, and even though I didn’t know what the movie …
Letters to Juliet movie
Letters to Juliet, a 2010 movie release, was surprisingly enchanting and entertaining. I really enjoyed it. There were moments where it slowed down a bit too much for me, and in reality, I think it could have been about ten to fifteen minutes shorter and been a …

I have seen in a film viewing a movie whose attempt is to fully make its viewer understand not only the life and works of Rizal, a Philippine National Hero, but also to people who watches the movie how difficult it was to make a movie out of a …
Open Range
There are not that many western made these days and when you see one that is recent I normally like to see an actor that I appreciate.
I like Robert Duvall, and I like Kevin Costner and I adore Annette Beinning. A few years ago this western came …
Defiance
I don’t usually like war movies, but sometimes I watch them mostly because my mother likes them. That was how I watched the movie Defiance. At first, I thought it was going to be very boring too like many of the other war films I’ve seen with the graphic …

After a couple of years of cancellation, this Dead Like Me movie which is sub-titled Life After Death was done with most of the original cast except for Mandy Patinkin and Laura Harris. Harris’ Daisy character was recast with Sarah Wynter. The opening integrates a comic book …
What Happens in Vegas, romantic comedy film
It is usually a safe bet to put Ashton Kutcher in a movie and see big numbers. The same goes for Cameron Diaz. What Happens in Vegas didn’t exactly change the way we view comedy movies, but it was enough to earn almost a hundred million dollars in box …
Step Up 3D Movie (2010)
This has got to be my new favorite dance movie of all times! My favorites movies before had been combined of Stomp the Yard and You Got Served, and the other movies that had tried to emulate them had failed, except for this one! This movie is a combination …

Embrace of the Serpent (2015 Colombian Adventure-Drama Film)

Just Like Heaven movie
I watch Just like Heaven when I was flipping through channels and saw Resse Witherspoon, whose movies I love, mainly her chick flicks. I thought Just like heaven’s story line was unconventional and yet hard to believe although a bit eager to want to have. I did however end …

Cold Souls Movie
Cold Souls is an excellent independent film to sink your teeth into. Paul Giamatti does an excellent job, as usual, of playing a flawed and likeable character, only this time the character is himself. The plot is quite simple, Paul is an actor who needs help disengaging from the …
Film Sleepy Hollow
God bless him, Tim Burton has taken Irving Washington’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow and turned it into a first class horror movie and a beautiful romance too. I’ve always disliked the original tale because, despite his flaws, you care about Ichabod Crane and you want him to get the …

I am Legend
Ok, considering I waited several weeks before I was able to find a copy of I am Legend at my local video store, I have to say I’m extremely disappointed in this movie. In fact, I’m absolutely glad I rented it rather than buy it.
When I see a movie …
The Break-Up movie
Doing romantic movies when your love life is in full turmoil must be pretty tough. I believe that “The Break-Up” represent this aspect to the actress, Jennifer Aniston. On the set of this movie, she meets the actor, Vince Vaughn and for a short while they had a relationship …

Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …

The Librarian: Quest for the Spear
Some time ago, I heard about the movie “The Librarian” and didn’t think much of it. I figured, at most, it would be a rip off of Indiana Jones and, without the great special effects and the star power of Harrison Ford, would prove to be lame.
I ended up …

Christine
I’ve never taken the time to read the Stephen King book Christine but finally got around to watching the movie last night. Overall, it wasn’t too bad.
The film, which is about a living car and a teenaged boy’s obsession over it, is a bit drawn out and takes a …
Robot & Frank (2012)
This is a movie about an elderly man. Yes, it’s got a robot in it and, yes, the old man used to be a cat burglar, but it’s still a movie about an old person. That may not excite some of the younger generation. But for those of us …
A lot like live
It`s a great movie. It`s a comedy romance and Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet plays really good in it. It takes some people years to fall in love at first sight. A LOT LIKE LOVE is a romantic comedy about destiny, connection and the frequently fuzzy line between chance …
