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 …
Monsters VS Aliens 3D
This is the 2nd movie that I have seen in 3D. The 3D effect is indeed a visual treat. It is very entertaining and it took movie watching up a notch. It is as if you can actually touch and feel the characters. Kids and adult alike enjoy such visual …

I have way more respect for actress Tina Fey since I started watching episodes of ‘30 Rock’ on DVD. I caught one episode when it first came on the air. But for some reason, I never followed up on the program. When Tina Fey …
Suicide Club horror movie
Suicide Club (or Circle, in practically everywhere besides the US) is a Japanese psychological horror movie that deals with subliminal messages, people’s outward appearances and personalities, and the idea of cults. It seems to have a popular, although small, fandom. I first watched it at a friend’s house, and …
Zip.ca Movie Service
I have had a subscription to Zip.ca for about four months. I live in a rural area, so I like not having to rush into town to return movies as there are no due dates for titles as long as your membership is current.
I pay under $30 a …

Terms Of Endearment (movie)
Terms of Endearment stars two of my favorite actors, Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger. Debra Winger plays Emma, Shirley MacLaine’s character’s daughter. Shirley MacLaine is Aurora. Throw in Jack Nicholson as Aurora’s womanizing, astronaut neighbor, and you have the perfect movie. The opening scene shows Emma still at home, …
Spring Breakdown
Well, I wasn’t sure what to expect when my wife and I watched the movie Spring Breakdown last night. I didn’t know if it was going to be a chick flick or if it would have a lot of unnecessary sex scenes in it.
It turned out to have neither …
Dead Like Me: Hurry
Dead Like Me: Hurry is the next installment of this science fiction series, and it’s all about being in a hurry.

30 Days of Night
This is a good movie if you like horror movies and you don’t mind gory things. If you are a person that doesn’t like gory or cannot take it I don’t recommend it. It kept me interested, the acting was good, I wasn’t really bored at all. There were …

Transformers Movie
A movie made in the likeness of a toy brand.
There was a bit of talk both in news headlines and the film industry when the trailers for the new transformers movie were released. I didn\’t exactly expect an adult theme or plot until I saw the first trailer. …
The Rescuers
If it weren’t for mice, Disney would have been out of business long ago. Granted all animals helped Disney succeed, but mice helped him over the top.
The Rescuers was no different. This concept of mice as rescuers worked so well in the mid-70s that fifteen years later, two other …
Idiots & Angels, movie (2008)

I can remember when I watched the premiere of the movie “The Ring” on cable. I can’t remember which movie channel brought it, but what I do remember is that even though I did not expect it to be terrifying I still found it a little creepy. I had …
Movie Review: The Ladykillers (2004)
I have just rented “The Ladykillers” 2004, starring Tom Hanks, from our local library and we’ve had a fun evening watching this hilarious comedy. However, I could do with less profanity; hearing the f-word all throughout the movie was rather annoying.
The story is about a gang of criminals lead …
Jack the Ripper
I saw this movie a few days back on History channel. This is the old version of the movie. We also had a new remake a few years back, but this was an old one. It has two parts that were screened one after the other. This is a …

Drag Me To Hell (Movie)
When this movie came out I really thought it was so low-budget and too corny. I didn’t know the director, I didn’t know the main cast, and I didn’t know what the point of the movie was all about. The trailer didn’t show anything much and the posters were …

Movie “Going the Distance” (2010)
I am not a big fan of romantic comedies. I do watch a handful per year but they are not my favorite genre. I picked this one up from netflix mostly because I had sen every thing else in new releases. I was pleasantly surprised at …
Sublime Movie
Sublime is quite possibly the oddest movie I have ever seen in my life. Once the movie ended, I was left feeling very confused and still trying to figure out what happened. Sometimes that is a good thing, like in Momento, but it wasn’t a good thing in this …
Dogma (1999)
A twisted story about two fallen angels who want back into heaven, but their method of their return will make the history that has been solidified over the years seem pointless. In order to stop their campaign, a host of both angels and mortals are teamed together to bring …
Cinderella - A Twist In Time
I must say that when you have lots of nephews and nieces, you have the excuse of watching kiddie DVD and that I got the chance to watch Cinderella - A Twist In Time. This is something like a sequel to Cinderella and boy does it have lots of …
Rod Zombie’s New Halloween Movie
I have an affinity for scary movies and am especially fond of the Halloween story. Having grown up watching this series, I was intrigued to learn that Rod Zombie had taken over where John Carpenter and Moustafa Akkad had left off. Being a huge fan of “The …

When the “film”begins, we see this tiny little pimp draped in a huge white fur coat and hat. Underneath, it appears that the little fella is wearing some kind of green velvet jacket and matching green striped shirt. He is also adorned with an assortment of …
Movie Cloverfield
I am reviewing the 2008 movie, Cloverfield. It stars a lot of no names. So it starts with this dude asked to tape this going away party for this guy. He is to document what people say. So, he has the camera rolling all the time. Everybody seems …
Little miss sunshine movie
Little miss sunshine is a really family oriented movie. If it did not have so much profanity, it probably would have been really successful as a mainstream movie. A dysfunctional family is coming together going on a road trip because the little girl wants to be in a little …
The Pentagon Wars movie
Good movie, and a rather scary one, if you think about the fact that it is actually based on a book written by someone who worked for Pentagon. Colonel James Burton (Cary Elwes) is assigned to supervise the completion of a new army machine - the Bradley Infantry Fighting …

Thunderbirds (2004)
The movie adaptation of a regular and popular television series. The difference between the movie and the series is that instead of using the puppets from the TV, they have replaced them with live actors to do their worst. I didn’t stutter, they really did their worst in this …
Blockbuster Video
Although I don’t watch a lot of DVD movies, perhaps 2 a week at the most, I do like to be able to rent the movies I want to see when I want to see them, not weeks later. I generally don’t make it to the movie theatre more …

El Cantante (R, 2007) movie
It’s amazing how you can go into a movie expecting horrible acting, and a bad plot. But Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have really tapped into a very interesting story about Hector Lavoe. Many people have never heard of this famous salsa king from New York City …
To Sir With Love
“To Sir with Love” is one of my all time favorite movies. I’ve seen it dozens of times and I still cry every time I see the movie. I think it is the ultimate teacher movie ever. The 1967 Columbia British Productions movie was filmed in color and lasts …
World War Z, movie
I wasn’t expecting a lot from this film. And I have to say that this film met my every expectation of it being a predictable and humorless blockbuster. Zombies chomped their teeth when you expected them to, cars crashed when you expected them to, and Brad Pitt played the …

Jaws takes place during the height of beach season in the small Massachusetts resort town of Amity Island. What is usually a time of fun in the sun for all the vacationers to …
Night At the Museum
I don’t watch many movies; usually when I watch a movie more than once it ends up being a favorite that I want to own. Night At the Museum is a perfect example. This is by far one of the funniest, cutest movies I’ve seen; there’s nothing questionable, it’s …
State of Play movie
I was expecting State of Play to follow a common story line for movies about political intrigue, but I was riveted to the screen for most of this movie. While some of the plot twists were predictable, the final one near the end was unexpected. I also dislike the …
