“The X-Files” was one of the most popular American television shows which was aired on television in the1990s. I do not know one person from my peer group who lived in the West and did not know about the television show. I can even remember that it used …

This creative and somewhat inspiring computer animated story would have been better without certain types of humor. As I’ve already said in my review of both Shreks, farting, in my opinion, is not funny but disgusting, and shouldn’t be on the screen. As to the story itself, it’s all …

OK, either I’m starting to get really old or the movie Twilight wasn’t anything that lived up to all the hype and the obsession the fans are giving it. I watched it last night and thought it was the longest, most boring vampire film I’ve ever seen. And, believe …

When this thing came out in the late 1980’s, it was slammed so roundly by a mass group of film critics that I didn’t even bother to go see it. I did, however, decide to “treat” myself to a cable television presentation of it not long ago …

I had completely different expectations from the Diary of a wimpy kid in large part due to a trailer that promised more surprises and maybe even a different kind of comedy that would have to develop a more intelligent humor.
But unfortunately for me and for those who were expecting …

Relic is one of my favorite movies, though the book the film was based on is much better. The movie takes place entirely at a natural history museum in New York. One of the museum workers sends a relic that he found overseas back to the museum and it …

I kept reading some good reviews about the movie “Malevolence” but when I got to watch it I was very disappointed. It is one of those horror movies where the plot only sounds very good on paper. I thought that the rating should have been average at the very least …

Anthony Hopkins has played so many villains, I think I have lost count. Here he appears as one again, intelligent, scheming, cold-blooded - just the way you like him. The movie “Fracture” (released in 2007) drew me in from the start, and from the start I knew it was …
