This movie is set in the fifties. The ending is really surprising although the rest of the movie follows along just as you would expect you to. I thought the predictability of the movie was a real drag. It’s like I could have written the script …

This “All the King’s Men” is not the one based on Robert Penn Warren’s Pulitzer winning novel. It is not a novel about politics in Louisiana. It is a movie about, well, all the king’s men. In this version there really is a king, King George V and the …

I watched this film recently on DVD, mainly because it’s British and I love British film, but also because it stars Rowan Atkinson and Kristin Scott Thomas, both brilliant actors. Rowan Atkinson plays a vicar (again) and is very believable in the part, showing no Mr Bean style goofiness …

I haven’t seen this movie for years until I saw it on television again late last year. It has a similar name to another movie called “The Deep End” and is not to be confused with it as they both have two completely different plots. Nevertheless I think that …

It tells about Brenda, and Jonathan, an immigrant person. Both of them grew up from …

I decided to watch “Shooter” because I knew that Mark Wahlberg had the leading role in this film. I really like his acting skills especially after watching him in films such as “The Perfect Storm”, “The Italian Job”, “The Kingdom” and in Martin Scorsese’s “The Departed”. I must admit …

I bought the Velvet Revolver dvd live in Houston at FYI and that band totally rocked that show which was filmed in 2004 in some large theater. The band seemed like they were really tight that night and had a great time jamming. I particularly enjoyed watching Slash play …

When I ran across this dvd at my local bargain shop for less than three dollars, new still in packaging I purchased it because I had heard from numerous sources that Gosford Park was an exceptional film. I had hopes of being at least mildly enetertained during this film.

I must admit that, although Tom Cruise gives an excellent interpreation in the movie “Jerry Maguire”, I still have “Born on the 4th of July” as my favourite movie. What is so great about “Jerry Maguire” is that it relies totally on Tom Cruise in bringing out the best …

After the box office flop of The Craving, Paul Naschy never thought he’d ever play the werewolf role he made famous ever again. Well, never say never because he was tapped by a Japanese company to make this strange “Werewolf runs amok in fuedal Japan” mini epic.

Will Smith has attempted to do inspirational films before and has failed. He struck gold in …

I have no idea how to even describe this 1945 movie short called Open the Door Richard. It’s a strange production that I just don’t understand. It features Dusty Fletcher and the infamous Richard, if only in spirit.
I just don’t know what to say, or should I …

50 first dates starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore is a nice romantic comedy and is a very good entertainer. The movie must be watched just for Adam Sandler’s comic sense and Drew Barrymore’s beauty. Henry sees Lucy in a restaurant and likes her at the very first instant …

To blave, that’s what this story is about. And if you find that inconceivable, try to stomach the kissing scenes and see where that gets you.
Seriously, this fairy tale is so full of enjoyable characters that the movie could have gone on for quite some time and I would …
