Iron Man
This latest superhero movie from Jon Favreau, the director of “Elf” and “Zathura”, starring Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeff Bridges and Terrence Howard, surpasses many others in the same genre, with a sly adult take on an otherwise rather two dimensional character. The special effects, while impressive …
Movie 2012
I liked this movie. It’s another movie from Roland Emmerich, which I consider to be the master of disaster movies the likes of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow. Apparently, he produced and directed this film for Columbia Pictures, which is of course owned by the …
What about Bob?
I really liked the movie What about Bob?. I think Bill Murray was very funny as the character of Bob. Bob is a guy who has mental problems and has to go see a shrink. He also is very paranoid and scared of everything. I think it’s very funny when …
Outsourced (2006)
Outsourced starring Josh Hamilton and Ayesha Dharker is a great movie with big heart that is definitely worth watching. The story tells of an American businessman (Hamilton) who loses his comfortable yet unsatisfying job in a call center when his company decides to outsource the service to India in …
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Movie (2010)
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010) movie is a pleasant collaboration between Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, who has been on creative fire since his “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies. I think that he’s given the family company just a slightly edgy, darker appeal without getting too violent, goth or …
Movie Georgia Rule
“Georgia Rule” is the film where we get to see the actress, Lindsey Lohan interpret the role of a bad girl with the name of Rachel Wilcox. With the reputation that Lohan has gained lately I don’t think she had a particular difficulty to fit in her role.
“Georgia Rule” deals …
Film “The kids are all right” (2010)
I had heard so much about this film. It sounded great and I liked the story, it sounded different from all the same old movies I had seen. I heard an interview with a star on the radio and they played clips and it sounded really interested. …
Machete Kills movie
Machete Cortez returns triumphantly to the screen in the second movie about the former elite agent of the Mexican special forces, who lives a modest life as an illegal immigrant in the United States.
Holding firmly in his hand the sharp Mexican weapon (presented this time in various technologically advanced …
The New Guy movie
I got bored yesterday afternoon (both kids were taking naps) so I ended up watching the movie “The New Guy” again. I think I have seen that thing about a dozen times now and have to say it is still one of the funniest movies ever.
DJ Qualls is hilarious …
Jack Reacher 2012 Film
I recommend this film to all lovers of action films and thrillers. This film was created with a very good sense of what the lovers of these genres want.
I surely enjoyed the two hours that I spent watching this film. Even though the quality of the streaming video that …
Meet the Spartans (2008)
This movie is a spoof of the Frank Miller’s telling of the tale of the Spartans, the movie known as 300. Basically everything from start to finish about this movie is similar to 300 with the exception of that it’s a pun of the movie. In addition, almost everything …
Police Academy (movie)
I haven’t watched the unedited version (as in, actual movie not one edited for TV) of Police Academy in years. But, after watching it again last weekend, I have to say I now realize just how good it was.
Other movies have tried to put together an insane group of …
Earth Girls are Easy (movie)
When watching the movie Earth Girls are Easy, you might be fooled into thinking you�re going to watch a hilarious movie. The reality is, outside of seeing Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans and Jeff Goldbloom in early roles, there really aren�t many redeeming qualities to this film. Unless of course …
Vacancy Movie
Vacancy is a movie released in 2007 starring Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale. If you think that combination sounds a little odd, don’t worry because so did I! I actually saw this movie while it was playing in the theater and I liked it enough that I actually bought …
Ratatouille
I hate rats so I wasn’t so keen on watching the animated movie Ratatouille. But constant prodding by my bestfriend to see the movie made me give in. Plus the fact that alot of people say it’s a nice movie. Indeed it is. From Pixar Animation Studios and Walt …
Speak (Movie)
Speak is a 2004 American independent drama based on the award-winning novel of the same name by Laurie Halse Anderson.
First of all I must say I really love Youtube, it’s a great source for movies and TV shows, although the videos may be a little low resolution.
I was bored and …
Swordfish
Swordfish is one of the cooler action movies of the last decade despite a couple setbacks. One of it’s producers worked on the Matrix, so it’s got a similar kind of wild, high-tech, fast-paced feel. Now it’s definitely not on the same scale, but it isn’t a rip-off either. …
Hudson Hawk movie
Starring the ever lovable Bruce Willis…an expert thief just released from prison is force to restart his profession. Danny Aiello co-stars as his trusty sidekick friend. The plot of this film is well done as it does not fail to entertain and captivate its audience. An all star cast …

He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
I watched this the other day and it was awesome. Audrey Tautou’s performance is really thumbs-up and even though this movie is a long-ago one, I find it super awesome, get what I mean. If you don’t believe, watch it and you will understand what I am trying …
The Movie Cars
I have to admit that when I heard about this movie I was rather skeptical. Not that I don’t like Pixar films, but rather about the subject matter of this movie. When I saw the trailer for this movie it really semed more like an animated version of …
Novecento Movie
Also known with the digits (1900) this is an incredible epic by Bernardo Bertolucci about Alfredo and Olmo, who grow up together in italy in the early 18th century. Alfredo is a rich boy while Olmo is one of the poor. The film depicts the life of these two …
Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Atlantis The Lost Empire is one of my all time favorite animated films. I think the scenes in this movie are just breathe taking. I was very impressed with how cool Atlantis looked in the movie. Atlantis The Lost Empire really paints a great image of what Atlantis probably really …

The break up movie
I was excited to see this movie and it was a major disappointment. I was excited to see it because it had vice Vaughn and Jennifer Anniston in it. It was supposed to be a comedy but it wasn’t much of a comedy to me. I barely laughed in …
“Ice Twisters” the movie 2009
Just from reading the synopsis on Netflix, Ice Twisters looked as if it was going to be a lower budget copy-cat disaster movie with a weather theme. That’s exactly what it was. But, to be fair, it was enjoyable, more so than I would have expected. When the film …
V for Vendetta movie
I recently saw the movie “V for Vendetta“. This film takes place in London in the near future. The United States has fallen apart and England is now run by a totalitarian government which seeks to control every aspect of the citizens lives. Coming on to …

Tokyo Drifter movie
This is a very innovative gangster movie from director Seijun Suzuki. Leading actor Tetsuya Watari does a brilliant job as the hero of the movie, dressed in a blue (!) suit, “Phoenix Tetsu”. Everything is beautifully shot in color, and the action sequences are excellent for a 1960s movie. …

A best cinema hall in siliguri with good facilities for the movie lover. It is located in the middle of the siliguri, every people can watch and can go home easily with Auto or Rickshaw. It is an air conditioned cinema hall with dolby surround sound. Video screen is …
Seed of Chucky
Seed of Chucky was a very funny and somewhat cheesy movie. It seems that ever new Child’s Play movie it got funnier and cheesier as it went along. But after a while, things started to change. The movie did have a few scares here and there but nothing compared to …
Firstborn,1984 movie
This is another depressing movie, of the kind I dislike. I mean, life can be depressing enough, so why take its darkest things onto the screen and drag them on and on? Not that I’m totally opposed to movies showing negative reality, but come on, sometimes enough is enough.
Anyway. …

A Shark’s Tale
I went to go see this movie against my own will. My friends all wanted to see A Shark’s Tale, and I was outnumbered, so I had to go. Let me make this clear, I did not want to see this movie at all! It looked like a cheesy …
Thor: Movie
Thor is a movie I went into with some pessimism, but came out pleasantly surprised and see it as one of my favourite movies of 2011.
Another comic-book adaption, I thought Thor’s story was very well developed and can be seen as an entertaining viewing for children and adults alike.
Firstly, …

Zombieland: Movie
I didn’t quite know what to expect from Zombieland, but as it turns out I quite enjoyed it. I found it to be pretty entertaining and thought it was to be one of the better comedies to come out of the last few years.
I love end-of-the-world type cinema …
“Hooligans” movie
Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …
Scary Movie 4
It was weekend when my uncle bought something for us to watch because we tend to watch movies every weekend. He bought the Scary Movie 4 which was about the twisted combinations of the movie “grudge” , ” war of worlds” and ” saw 2″
We have found the movie …
blockbuster .com
I actually like Blockbuster a lot more than Netflix because you can return the movies to the store instead of mailing them in and waiting to receive new movies. Not only can you return the movies that were mailed to you to the store, but you can also trade …

I am reviewing The Case of the Tyrant’s Daughter, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

This movie crosses …
The Accidental Tourist movie
After watching this movie I started to be a great fan of William Hurt’s acting abilities. I must say that I also observed his performance in the more recent “The Good Shepard” and it seems that Hurt hasn’t lost his touch! Unfortunately, although “The Accidental Tourist” is all about …
The Bourne Identity
The Bourne Identity introduces the world to Jason Bourne, a former CIA operative who is suffering amnesia. It follows his fact paces, death defying journey to discover the truth about who he is. I love the first real action scence in the movie where he’s in the bank and …
