“Play Misty for Me” movie

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 …

Spanglish

My Best Friend’s Girl

Taken 2, movie
I enjoyed “Taken” well enough. It wasn’t the most complex piece of cinema, but if you wanted to see Liam Neeson beat up bad guys, it delivered.
It seemed like one of those movies that didn’t really need a sequel. Not everything needs to be turned into a …

luxurious setting, The Talented Mr. Ripley is the story of Tom Ripley …
The Judge (2014 drama movie)
“The Judge” wasn’t really one of those movies whose trailer sparked much interest for me. As a matter of fact I didn’t expect that it would be very good even though it had some talented actors in it such as Robert Downey Jr, Robert Duvall, and Vera Farmiga. However after …

The Libertine Movie

The Invisibles (starring Portia de Rossi)

The Usual Suspects (1995 Classic Film)

‘The Night Listener’ is the umpteenth time from the movie Robin Williams is illicit nuances. Efforts in genres varying from the usual role he (comedy) sometimes successfully, but sometimes also appear with no convincing. For me, including The Night Listener, which is quite successful.

Man of the House movie
I absolutely adore Man of the House, which is a simple romantic comedy from 1995 which stars Chevy Chase, Farrah Fawcett, and Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who was probably the biggest child star of the 90’s, at least on television. In this film, Thomas plays Ben Archer, whose father …
