Spartacus movie
This is another colosal movie about the Rome legend. I think it’s very tragic story. It’s about rebelition of gladiator and slaves to Rome’s kingdom.
The story start when the Rome take many innocent people as slaves. And they choose strong men to get practice to become gladiator. The Rome …
In the name of the father movie

Indecent Proposal movie (1993)

National Lampoon’s Bag Boy
OK, as far as movies are concerned, National Lampoon’s BagBoy had to have one of dumbest plots ever. You have a high school graduate whose only talent is bagging groceries so he seeks to enter the international baggers competition in an effort to finally make himself a winner. It …
Mirrors (2008)
This story comes to us as viewers with the intentions of scaring us into thinking that there is another world living in the mirrors. Things that are trouble or brought to provocation will attack with lethal intent. When this movie started, it showed a man running for his life …
Moonrise Kingdom, movie (2012)
Wes Anderson, as a director, has a tendency to be too quirky for his own good. After two great films with Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, his films became inconsistent. I’m not a big fan of The Royal Tenenbaums. I highly enjoyed Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. …
Movie: Escanaba in Da Moonlight
I ended up watching a movie last night that my brother once recommended to me; Escanaba in Da Moonlight. He thought it was the funniest movie ever made. I hate to say it, but I just don’t see what he liked about it.
OK, he’s a deer hunter and maybe …
Parker (2013 movie)
I just got around to watching Parker after waiting around for quite a while since its announcement. Anyways, I’m a big fan of Jason Statham films and so this one is no exception and is a must watch for me. However, after watching it, I find that this really …

Aronofsky’s “Black Swan”
I don’t go to the cinema all that often - not only is it quite expensive, but also I prefer to be able to pause, rewind, have a snack without disturbing fellow viewers and, most of all, I like to talk during a movie. Therefore, I tend to watch …
Harry Potter Deathly Hallows pt 1

After seeing all of the other Potter movies numerous times I was hit with a saddened dissapointmet after taking in the first of the two part conclusion of Harry’s epic struggle with the Dark Lord …
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 …
Bee Season
After embracing Buddhism, the actor Richard Gere is getting very attentive which movies to be involved in. In all honestly, I am not surprised that he chose to particate in “Bee Season”. The biggest surprise was that this is not a Gere or Juliet Binochet movie, but solely a …

Zombieland Movie
It’s a short and simple story chronicling the lives of four survivors in a zombie infested America. Quite a shallow plot, but extremely funny. Its comedic factor is refreshing because it isn’t lewd or too slapstick.
Columbus played by Jesse Eisenberg was funny when he was alone, giving the …
ADULT WORLD, movie (2013)
We are all so special and unique when we are 20 years old. We have special feelings. We have thoughts that we think no one else has ever had before. We feel at the center of the world. We are true egocentrics. We carry around our “creativity,” whether it’s “shitty …
Charlie Wilson’s War, biographical drama film by Mike Nichols
Something about Charlie Wilson’s War doesn’t feel right. The film tells the true story about Charlie Wilson and how he single handedly took down the Soviets. I was left with a bad taste in my mouth after watching this movie and I don’t know why I feel this way …
The Angel of Pennsylvania Avenue
From 1996, The Angel of Pennsylvania Avenue was a nice little holiday film that portrays itself to be based on a story about Bernice Feagan. I was curious and did some research. It seems that Bernice didn’t even know this movie was made until it was done. …

Caddyshack 2 Movie
While I am not one of the biggest fans of golf, I love Caddyshack 2. And believe me, it’s not for the golf. It’s for the comedy. While I have seen the first Caddyshack, I saw the second movie first and I always seem to rotate back to the …
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009 Movie)
First off, I did not go to see this in theaters. I waited until it was available through Netflix streaming before I actually saw it. That being said, this movie was absolutely amazing even without Imax, surround sound, and in 3D. It’s based off a children’s book, and according …
Wild Strawberries (Movie) 1957
Wild Strawberries was written and directed by the notoriously intellectual Ingmar Bergman and was released in 1957 to critical acclaim. Commonly, Bergman is known as a gloomy, philosophical director who has a preoccupation with death which is enough to put a lot of people off. Well, his …
Delightfully Dangerous movie
Delightfully Dangerous from 1945 starred a teenaged Jane Powell as Sherry Williams. This is actually the first time I’ve seen her as a teenager and a brunette to boot. I enjoyed her performance, though. She was gay and pretty and gullible, as many girls of the …
VONGO
This is a great service for any movie buff. I love renting and buying movies but hate having to fight traffic just to get to a movie place. I tried the whole blockbuster online and netflix thing but hated having to wait for movies in the mail and then …
Shinobi
Shinobi is a japanese movie but depending on where you get it, it comes with english subs (in my case, thai and chinese were available also). Shinobi actually means ninja. It’s your typical movie of two ninja tribes going against each other but the boy and girl from different …

The Postman Always Rings Twice movie
This film hasn’t got anything to do with postmen at all. It’s a story about jealousy and murder with Jack Nicholson in the leading role. The film didn’t manage to engage me in its story for some reason, even though I think both Nicholson and Jessica Lange are very …
Vantage Point movie
For my twenieth birthday, three friends of mine dragged me to the movie theater to see the new 2008 film Vantage Point. I had not heard of the film, but I was not interested. I’d have preferred simply to hang out at a friend’s house and play cards. Begrudgingly, …

The Avengers (2012 movie)
The Avengers was, to put it lightly, absolutely epic. I’ve never been that interested in superhero movies, games, or comics, but this action film was incredible. The way the action blended perfectly with the story line meant that I was captivated for the entire time, even though it’s a …
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005)
A british comedy that stars the likes of Mos Def, Martin Freeman, Zooey Deschanel, John Malkovich, Bill Nighy, Sam Rockwell and the voice of Alan Rickman as a melodramatic robot.

In a nutshell the film “August Rush” is about fate and dreams. What is fantastic about this great movie is that the young actor, Freddie Highmore acting abilities are simply wonderful. Before “August Rush”, Highmore also appeared in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Finding Neverland”.
The story of “August …

Millennium movie
From 1989, this science fiction movie speaks to me for some reason, and I really don’t know why. There’s just something about it that makes me want to watch it, over and over again … and I do.

At first I was a bit skeptical about this movie. The trailer seems funny and exciting, but most boring movies do. So when I went to the cinema with my sister to watch something (Hancock excluded because she wanted to watch it with her bf) I have no other …
