Just a Little Inconvenience movie
Just a Little Inconvenience isn’t the easiest movie to watch, but it is a powerful and potent film. From 1977, the movie stars Lee Majors and James Stacy. In real life, Stacy was involved in a motorcycle accident that resulted in the lost of an arm and …
Jeepers Creepers 2 Movie
If I have said it once, I’ve said it too many times…some movies really don’t need a sequel and Jeepers Creepers is one such movie. Ok, I get the fact that every twenty third spring for twenty three days it gets to eat…but come on, if the creature has …
Storm Warning
Storm Warning is a movie full of blood, guts and gore. If you are not up for this sort of violence and horror, you do not want to watch Storm Warning! Sometimes I can really appreciate a good horror movie filled with all sort of blood and guts. Recently …
Dead Mary (UR, 2006) movie
I was surprised that this movie didn’t get more thumbs down on Netflix reviews. This was an interesting film that could have been much much better. Offering a slightly different spin on the typical teenage group in the woods slasher film, this movie uses a little …
Mister Roberts movie
I am reviewing the movie, Mister Roberts, which was created back in 1955. Although an oldie, it is definitely a goodie. I accidently came across this movie on television about six years ago, and I immediately was hooked. This movie is filled with brilliant actors, including Henry …
Sergeantt York Movie
Gary Cooper plays a farmer who against his will is sent to take part in World War I. While there he becomes a war hero, despite his former pacifism sympathies.
This is one of the clearest examples of pure american propaganda. The whole point of the film is to proclaim …
Sex and the City 2 Movie
When the first Sex and the City movie was shown on the big screen, hundreds of thousands of eager girls and ladies awaited. We weren’t disappointed, it was all glam, glittery, sparkling! We wanted more. We never wanted the movie to end!
When the trailer for Sex and the City …
Clambake movie
From 1967, the movie musical Clambake stars the king of rock and roll, Elvis Presley. It’s not an award winner by any means, but it is a fun movie, albeit predictable. It’s just not a stretch of any of the performers’ acting talents. By this point, …
Catch Me If You Can, 2002
This movie is based on a true story of Frank Abagnale, a teenage con artist who successfully impersonated an airline pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, as well as cashed over $2.5 million worth of forged checks - all that before reaching his 19th birthday. Frank, played very convincingly …
Land of the Lost
I’m not a huge Will Ferrell fan so I kind of figured I wouldn’t like his movie Land of the Lost.
Well, I watched it this past weekend and it turns out I was right.
This movie just wasn’t that good. Ferrell is supposed to be some sort of genius scientist …
Best of Raw vol.1
I bought Best of Raw vol.1 on VHS a couple years ago. And I have to say this is a great video. It shows you the early days of WWF RAW. And yes this takes it back to the days when it was WWF and not WWE. I really like …
The Hunger Games movie
As an avid fan of the books, I was absolutely horrified when I found out The Hunger Games trilogy was going to be made into movies. I never really felt that anyone would be enough to take on the role of Katniss Everdeen, and I just knew they …
Juno - Movie
Juno is an interesting movie to watch that raises some real life issues such as teenage pregnancy and abortion.
It is about this young 16 year old girl that falls pregnant to this guy at school. She freaks out when she found out and instantly thought of aborting her …
Epic the Movie (2013)
Another fun-filled family adventure movie is here; from the makers of the Ice Age series and Rio, Epic feels to me like a magical combination of The Borrowers and Fern Gulley. I found myself being transported back to my childhood when I would have watched such films. However I …
The Devil Wore Prada
Like most movies I have an interest in seeing, this one disappeared from the cinemas before I had a chance to see it. I enjoyed it even though it contained many of the things I mentioned in my review of “Little Miss Sunshine” as things that could be …
Zodiac (2007 film)
I was really disappointed by “Zodiac,” because at first glance it seemed to be the kind of material that was right up director David Fincher’s alley, what with his similarly dark, previous forays into thriller territory, like “Panic Room” and especially “Se7en.” But “Zodiac” has nowhere near the kind …
Crimson Tide (1995)
Crimson Tide, directed by Tony Scott is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for strong language. The original released ate for this movie was May 12, 1995 for United States audiences. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Drama/Thriller and stars Denzel Washington as Lt. Commander …
Jurassic World (2015 Science Fiction Adventure Movie)
I was one of those people who remembers being awed by the first Jurassic Park when I was a young child, so like some I was a little wary that another one was going to be released this year. However, after hearing different people swear that the movie was actually …
Movie American Gangster
American Gangster’ is a movie presenting based on facts story of a man who practically overnight became one of the leading figure of New York underworld. Even more surprising was the fact that he was black while until then the crime world was dominated by Italians and Jews. It …
Johnny Guitar movie
This anti-western by inventive Hollywood filmmaker Nicholas Ray, tells the story of a western hero called Johnny “Guitar” Logan, who much rather plays music instead of shooting down people with guns. The storyline and narrative is daring and unusual for the time. Johnny Guitar was made in the 1950s …
Midnight in Paris (movie)
I had never heard of the movie “Midnight in Paris” until I saw where someone mentioned it in a blog a few weeks ago. The person mentioned that it was a brilliant independent film that all independent film lovers should see, and proceeded to give a description of the …

Marie Antionette: The Movie
If you have done your history homework, you would be familiar with the name Marie Antoinette. In case you aren’t, she was the queen of France during the French Revolution. She was famous, but not for good reasons.
Marie Antoinette has been one of my favorite movies of all …
Alice in Wonderland (2010)
My review is very so so with this movie. I was so excited to see it because I heard how awesome it was and I am a huge Johnny Depp fan. I had it in my NetFlix queue for ever and was uber excited when they finally sent it …
Shinobi movie
My husband and I decided to have movie night the other night. So we went to our local video rental to rent some movies. One of the movies we decided on was “Shinobi.” My husband loved the fight scenes in …
Open Range (2003)
Once again, Kevin Costner has delivered unto us, the viewing public, another almost three hour feature length film based in the days of the old west. I guess it is safe to say that he loves this time period and he enjoys getting all submerged in a world where …
Iron Man
I have never read the Iron Man comic strips before. So, when the movie came out, I wasn’t sure what to think.
After finally watching it this weekend, I’m regretting not seeing it at the theater.
Robert Downey Jr. is great as a wealthy weapons developer who develops a conscience and …
Columbo: Murder, a Self Portrait movie
Columbo: Murder, a Self Portrait opens at the basset hound club. I’m laughing and having a good time already. They showed a lot of the different competitions during the opening credits. The dress up category had prisoner bassets, Sherlock Holmes bassets, and flamingo bassets. What a …
Employee of the Month
Employee of the Month with Dane Cook, Jessica Simpson, and Dax Shepard.
Okay I rented this movie in the hopes of seeing Jessica Simpson naked. Given this marvel did not occur I was definitely disappointed with this film. Simpson is the trophy for a …

Masters of Horror: Valerie on the Stairs
Valerie on the Stairs isn’t a very good movie on its own, and when you compare it to the other films in the Masters of Horror series, it looks even worse. That’s fairly sad considering the amount of talent in the movie. The movie centers on a main character …
“A Christmas Carol,” 2009 (Animation)
We went to see the new animated “Christmas Carol” movie yesterday. Like all new Disney animations, it is done in 3D; we got the 3D glasses as we bought the tickets, and paid $3 more per ticket because of it. It was well worth it though: I felt like …

Spaceballs (1987 movie)
If it’s from Mel Brooks, it’s great comedy.
Spaceballs makes parody of Star Wars, having the same great characters, but with a comedic insight. Lord Dark Helmet (very huge helmet) is sent to steal air from planet Druidia. Lone Starr with the help of his trusty sidekick Barfolemew ‘Barf’ are …
Thelma and Louise
This is definately a movie worth watching if you haven’t seen it yet. It has Susan Surandon in it. It’s about two girls that go off on a trip and one of the girls get rapped along the way. I think it is a wonderful story and the whole …
Movie: Let The Right One In
Let The Right One In is a film I have been wanting to see for quite awhile. Horror fans have been making their lists of their favorite genre film and more and more often you see this one popping up. Since the list is long of films …
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
I had watched the first Transformers movie and enjoyed it, so I was hoping to enjoy its sequel just as much. I usually like movies with Shia LaBeouf, known for his dry sense of humor. However, this movie fell very short of my expectations.
I found LaBeouf’s character Sam …
Footloose movie
When I was younger I wanted to watch the movie “Footloose” very badly. I was a small child in the early nineties, and would sometimes see the movie going on some Sundays on one of the local channels, but ironically I never got to see it until I was …

The kid and I movie
The kid and I is a movie I thought to be funny but sad at the same time. It depicts how a guy wants to kill himself at first but wakes up and finds out he has a job. This guy is a actor and his life is centered …
Godzilla 1985
Godzilla 1985 is really a poor movie compared to the Japanese release, which is titled Godzilla 1984. They are both the same movie, it’s just the American release came a year after, hence the 1985. I dislike how the American release was handled because the distributor removed or shortened …
Made of Honor, romantic comedy film
When was the last time you wanted to watch a movie about a man and woman that love each other and they don’t know it? Most likely you have seen movies like this before and Made of Honor doesn’t hide the fact that certain sequences are identical. Even with …
All Dogs Go to Heaven
I was looking for movies my daughter can watch during the afternoons between the time she gets home from school and when my wife and I want the TV. One of those movies was All Dogs Go to Heaven.
It had been a while since I saw the movie so …
ABD Family’s Original Movie “Cyberbully” (2011 Film)
ABS Family came out with a movie in 2011 called Cyberbully. And I have to just say that this movie went beyond my expectations and brought viewers the type of movie that focuses on a key issue effecting young teens. I was surprised at how relatable the film was …
The Fall - (Tarsem Singh) film
This is a stunningly good, stunningly beautiful film.
You will probably find yourself thinking “What?” or just “?” throughout. Occasionally re-winding to find out if you really DID hear/see that, or to find out the answer to “?”
Being moved to tears, then laughter, or both at the same time may …
The Hoax
This movie, The Hoax, is actually more catered to people with political interest in a story. There are about 3 characters in this movie. Clifford Irving, Howard Hughes and President Nixon, and it is based on a true story.
This movie firstly revolves around Clifford Irving, a writer, …
