I saw ‘Watchmen’ at a local IMAX theatre and the film really scores a 100% rating for presentation. It’s slick, glossy and packed with imaginative set pieces and special effects. The story on the other hand leaves a lot to be desired. I never read the graphic novel by …

‘This is England’ is a marvellous movie about growing up, friendship, love, pain and hatred. The story is set in Britain in 1983, just in the middle of Iron Lady’s reign and the Falklands War. A very young boy, Shaun, is going through a very difficult time. His dad …

This movie is considered a “fashion” movie that’s best applicable for young ladies and women who dreams of making it to a very glam city with a good-paying job, a fantasic career, an even-better boyfriend, and a set of girlfriends to share it all with. Unfortunately, this isn’t the …

I love this movie with Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. I love anything that has to do with ‘fairy tale’ witches, and this movie fits the bill. It’s a beautiful book as well; please read the book at some point in your life; it’s memorable and fantastic ! I …

‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ is an action comedy film. It’s a film that has been done extremely well and it was truly a treat to have been able to watch it in theatres. There’s enough action and comedy in the movie to ensure that boredom doesn’t set it. The storyline …

I saw Spiderman 3 at a matinee the weekend after it opened. There had already been a ton of reviews stating just how horrible it was and that Sam Raimi is just a huge dissapointment with this one.
NEVER listen to critics. Always make your own decision when …

Andrei Tarkovsky is one of my absolute favorite directors. A true cinematic artist who wanted to make the cinema just as impressive an art as painting, music or literature, and I have to say he succeeded with his mission, although he died to soon, only about 50 years of …

Cronenberg’s cult rated film features James Woods as a man being consumed by media, psychologically and physically, in perhaps the most bizarre way ever seen. It begins as what seems like a very serious and slowly paced film, but ends up as a plain horror film with loads of …

This was an overall pretty good movie. It was pretty funny for the most part also. I enjoyed watching the movie. It wasn’t one of my favorite movies but it’s worth watching. It’s a nice movie to watch when there is nothing else on television or on a day …

My Best Friend’s Girl from 2008 is a disaster. The only reason I watched this thing was because I noticed a listing in the credits for Patrick Swayze that referred to this movie. He was given ’special thanks’ along with a few other performers. I knew …

John Cusack plays novelist Clay Riddel, a writer who is on his way home from a trip. He standing in the airport when all hell breaks loose it seems. He had just finished speaking to his son on his cell phone when he lost the signal, as he searches for …

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.
If the description …

Save the Last Dance is about a teenager, Sara (Julia Stiles) and the new life she is forced to embark on after her mother passes away in a car accident. She goes to live with the father she barely knows in a rough area in Chicago; her school is …

From 2007, Jump! stars Patrick Swayze as a Jewish lawyer in Austria who defends a young man accused of murdering his father. This was Swayze’s last real theatrical appearance in a starring role. He did film a television movie this same year and then did a cameo …

That Girl’s Season Three DVD set is the least packed of the first three sets in terms of bonus material. Shout Factory has kept the same packaging theme and style as the others. It’s colorful and features the famous silhouette of Marlo Thomas as That Girl that …

This is my favorite movie of all time…and a magnificent film directed by and starring Mel Gibson. It tells the true story of a Scotsman fighting for the freedom of his country after his wife was killed by an English lord. It also has a crazed Irishman who claims …

I watched the movie awake yesterday. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie. I didn’t want to stop watching it for anything. The thought of “anesthetic awareness” to me is scary. To think that you are going into surgery and you are not fully asleep and can still …

The movie “Circus of Fear” is one of the actor Christopher Lee’s older movies. At first I got the impression from the title that it was going to be a horror film, but, instead it turned out to be more of a mystery/suspense film. Personally, even though the …

Kick-Ass is a comic-book superhero movie about a guy who ask himself “why nobody has ever tried to be a superhero?” like the ones on comic-books. Kick-Ass is based in a comic by Mark Millar and I think this is one of the best comic-book movies ever. As a …

Just a Little Inconvenience isn’t the easiest movie to watch, but it is a powerful and potent film. From 1977, the movie stars Lee Majors and James Stacy. In real life, Stacy was involved in a motorcycle accident that resulted in the lost of an arm and …

I’ll admit, I’m a sucker for Disney movies. They always have a way of dragging me back to my childhood to the happy times of being a kid without a care in the world.
Saving Mr. Banks is the real life approach to Mary Poppins. At first, when I heard …

Obviously, a review of ANY Stanley Kubrick movie is going to have the usual raves (visually stunning, technically masterful!) and the usual criticisms (the acting can feel a little…robotic at times, and there’s generally a certain bleak, emotionally distant view of the human condition). Those definitely apply to Kubrick’s …

While Transformers began with children in mind, Revenge of the fallen couldn’t have landed further without earning an “R” rating. While the robots are more numerous and larger in size, I must say I am a little disappointed with the lack of responsibility taken up by the team to …

I have watched this movie at least a dozen times. I first saw it in the movie theaters with my room mate during my freshman year of college. I went in there really not sure what to expect because the book itself I actually read. It was written by …

The Four is a 2012 Chinese-Hong Kong wuxia film directed by Gordon Chan and Janet Chun. It is the first film adaptation of Woon Swee Oan’s novel series Si Da Ming Bu aka The Four Great Constables.

The plot is about Zhuge Zhengwo who leads the Divine Constabulary is …

Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …

The movie I am about to review is considered one of the worst movies of all timec called Troll 2.This is for a very good reason.I will give my own personal reasons why the movie is so horrible.
The plot is essentially about Goblins that turn humans into plant-like matter …

One of the few adequate performances by Ashton Kutcher (who normally works a tired cliché part). Here he does an acceptable job (but not a great one) of portraying the main character who is able to move back in time and change the future. The movie is …

I had first watched that movie when a friend of mine was getting married; she was looking for wedding ideas, and someone had recommended the just released “Father of the Bride.” Well, as to wedding ideas, my friend did not get any: her finances were far more modest than …

This movie that I’ve watched before, The Notebook is really bittersweet and if you are thinking of watching it on DVD, make sure that you have your tissues standby for it’s a real sad story and bittersweet, as I’ve mentioned.
Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling are the off screen …

One of the truly beautiful and often overlooked classics of the 1950’s, MGM’s Lili is not only a great family film but one that speaks to the romantic in all of us.
Set in France, it features the growth of an innocent orphaned waif named Lili (played perfectly …

Not nearly as bad as it looks from the trailers.
I avoided watching this for ages because the trailers made it look awful - cheesy, bloated, frankly as interesting and featureful as the Outback. It had one of those trailers which seems to give away the plot of the entire …

I was expecting big things when I rented The Hangover on DVD; I expected, given the trailers and my friends’ views, that I would be laughing uproariously the entire time. However, although there were some funny and witty moments, I was disappointed. It had good moments, when I did …

In the previous movie, in the ending of it that is, it showed a new strain of the alien creature as it adapted the predator gene. Now, in this movie, the creatures are once again back on earth, there usual playground, and they are after each other with us …

Sergio Leone was a filmmaker who loved western films above anything, and his dollar trilogy is one of the most powerful love letters ever written in cinema history. With Once Upon a Time in the West he continued on that same line, but developed his visual style to the …

Good idea, very interesting form and … cheating, which discourages the viewer. Instead of shocking the movie, we deal with this really good, but unfortunately still not perfect art.
Intriguing beginning gives us hope for a great movie. At a time when we learn that it is based on facts …

I sat down to watch the third Resident Evil movie last night; Extinction. While I thought it was an OK movie, I think they might have taken the series a bit too far.
The first thing I really didn’t like about that movie is the fact about half the main …

I have seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show two times in my lifetime; last night was the second time. Each time I enjoyed the movie but I found myself leaving awfully confused.
Let me start out by saying that, if you haven’t seen this movie already, you may want to …

I saw this movie Death at the Funeral, the British version, a few years ago. it was really funny and filled with surprises. When I heard that Death at the Funeral was being remade as an American film, I immediately wanted to see it too just to compare it …

Expectations were a lot from ‘The Uninvited’ but it was all gone after seeing the movie. The trailers shown on TV were too promising. You cannot say that it is a horror movie except for some creepy scenes when Anna, played by Emily Browning, is been visited by the …

This has been a Steven Spielberg film and having typecast him by the viewers with movies that have extraordinary themes, I supposed this would be another unforgettable movie and so it was, although he just directed parts 1 and 2 because the one who directed the third part was …

I am quite shocked that I never heard of a movie that has Justin Timberlake in it; somehow, the movie Open Road appeared in the movie rental store without me having ever heard of it. I follow Justin Timberlake’s music and acting career, mainly because I think he will …

Salt is actually both simple and hard to examine —“ and for that same cause. That cause is which Salt is really a business choice movie as well as from which perspective this works pretty much. But that does mean that it’s completely emptiness of innovative spark.
This is actually …

Marvel, Marvel, Marvel. The only time a Marvel movie turned out right was when the first Avengers movie came out and even then- way too much action. Avengers: Age of Ultron is one of those movies where the visuals draw you in but the story spits you out. If you …
