Number 23
Although Jim Carrey is known for his comedy movies, he did an amazing job in this movie. I was a little reluctant because I didn’t know how good he would be in this type of movie and the previews looked good I was a little worried about him being …
How to Lose Friends and Alienate People
I loved The Devil Wears Prada film largely because Meryl Streep was such a bitch. The good news is How To Lose Friends And Alienate People is written in the same vein only the main character is not Anne Hathaway but a smart talking clumsy writer (Sydney Young) played …

Stomp The Yard Movie
My brother recommended that I watch this movie since I loved dancing, and upon watching it I was first bored as the steps were quite robotic and it was so “formal”, the setting was in a university and it was quite different like cheerdancing is different to cheerleading, it …
Dark Knight Rises movie
And so it ends, the “greatest superhero trilogy of all time”(TM). In 2005, Nolan introduced us to his very tormented take on Batman, the focus being on Bruce Wayne and - the trilogy’s overarching theme - fear. Then, in 2008, he upped the stakes with the epic Dark Knight, …

Brewster’s Millions
I’ve seen the ending to the movie Brewster’s Millions at least a dozen times. But, today was the first time I’ve actually sat down for a couple of hours to watch it.

Movie: “Zack and Miri Make a Porno”
This movie was supposed to be the new “funniest movie of the year” but due to bad writing, bad characters, and bad plot, it fell sadly short.
Seth Rogan and Elizabeth Banks play Zack and Miri, friends/roommates who have fallen on hard times. Randomly, they decide to film a pornographic …
Wayne’s World
I gotta say that Wayne’s World is a pretty good movie. It is one of my best memories of the past. I think the movie was really funny and very crazy. I think Wayne was a very funny character. The movie Wayne’s World really captured the essence of what the …

Movie Just Friends
I must admit I don’t like watching Ryan Reynolds movies. For some reason, he is obsessed with the words ‘fuck’ and ’sex’, however he managed to convince me in this comedy movie with the name “Just Friends”. I like this movie because Reynolds finally managed to involve himself in …

Ouija (supernatural horror movie)

Moving Target movie
Moving Target could have a decent movie, but it just drags way too much to be more than so-so. The plot has some intrigue to it, but it’s poorly directed with too many long pauses and too much murkiness. I say that even though there is a …
Mona Lisa Smile
It took me a very long time to watch the movie “Mona Lisa Smile” because I have always found it very hard to watch movies starring the actress Julia Roberts. This is because I’m used to her starring in a lot of romance films which I don’t like as …
Dickinson Movie Theater Pittsburg KS
The Dickinson Movie Theater in Pittsburg Kansas is TERRIBLE! I have been attending there for many years now simply because there is no other theater in my area.
You walk in the front door, and it doesn’t seem to be a bad place. The front is well kept, and most …

This is a crazy movie; some people would say that it is weird and that they didn’t understand it. Honestly I think that this is the type of movie where you either like it or you don’t. I just thought it was overall crazy and honestly I don’t even …

Grindhouse: Planet Terror (NR, 2007)
I skipped this one in theatres. I’d seen something else that Quentin Tarantino recently released, and I wasn’t pleased. But then I realized that Planet Terror is actually the brain-child of Robert Rodriguez. This film was so much better than I thought it was going to …

The Da Vinci Code with Tom Hanks, Ian McKellen, Alfred Molina, and Jean Reno.
This movie appeared on the scene when everyone was promoting the concept of the Da Vinci Code in books, TV, and documentaries. The star studded cast also appealed to my interest …

The Incredible Hulk (2008)

The Detective movie
Frank Sinatra starred in this 1968 vehicle called The Detective. He plays Det. Sgt. Joe Leland. Now frankly I’m not fond of Sinatra’s serious roles. I do enjoy him in musicals and lighter fare, but I’ve never been a fan of his more earthy roles as …

Movie the Number 23
The movie the number 23 is a Jim Carrey film but it is very unlike his other films. This is my favorite of his films because he actually acts in it. Normally he over acts and gets a lot of mileage from facial expressions and acting like …
House of Fears
OK, I have to admit that House of Fears makes me go all creepy. However, the movie is kind of dark and it’s quite irritating to say. I wish that most haunted movies would be clearer and not having a dark effect.
I am not really sure …
Christina’s House movie
I watched this movie on lifetime Movie network the other day. It was an overall alright movie. It was worth watching but it isn’t a movie I would watch again or buy. It’s a good movie for a rainy day. If you are really in the mood for a …
