Bedazzled-Brendan Fraser & Elizabeth Hurley
I loved this movie because it was so funny. Who would have thought that the devil could be a comedian or so sexy. Elizabeth Hurley was great in this role because she brought a special touch to it. I enjoyed her constant antics and trickery so much. She kept …
Seventh Son, Movie
Boasting an impressive cast, and based on the book, A Spook’s Apprentice by Joseph Delaney, there were high hopes amongst many for this film. Early trailers showed some promise, but the delays in production, followed by a weak showing at the box office, hint at the real quality, or lack …

Synopsis: A successful business man (Rodney Dangerfield) decides to attend college in an effort to convince his son not to drop out of school and becomes an instant success with his new classmates.
What I liked about this movie: A lot of people don’t like Dangerfield’s comedy. i’m not one …
The Hound of the Baskervilles movie
Jeremy Brett in the role as Sherlock Holmes and Edward Hardwicke as dr Watson. This is a tv produced film that preceded the very popular series, and Jeremy Brett is in my opinion the best actor to appear as the mastermind next to Basil Rathbone (of course).
The classic story …

Summer Scars movie
When I first saw the cover of the dvd, to tell you the truth I didn’t expect anything higher than a movie which could only be described as b-rated. However, when I watched the movie I was more than surprised because I found it was actually quite interesting and …
Rocky 5
Rocky 5 with Sylvester Stallone, Talia Shire, Burt Young, and Tommy Morrison.
Many have called this the worst Rocky sequel. I would have to agree with this rating, but even the worst is not that bad in this case. The characters stay true to form …
The happening movie
The happening was a pretty good movie. It’s about something happening in parts of the world where it makes people do weird things and eventually kill themselves. I thought it was well directed because it will let you know what is happening but yet it is not gory at …
The Last Bolshevik movie
This is a documentary style film by experimental french filmmaker Chris Marker. It tells the story of the forgotten soviet genius director Sergei Medvedkin, who made a whole bunch of visually stunning films in the silent era, which were all hidden away by the government as they apparently wasn’t …
The Reader Movie
I just watched the award-winning movie starring Kate Winslet “The Reader” and I enjoyed it very much because the whole movie was so in touch with the emotions. I have to admit, it made me cry a lot of times. Imagine being ashamed of yourself and trying to cover …
The Wiz movie
This might be an old movie, but it is probably one of my absolute faaaavorites of all time! I have watched this movie at LEAST once a year since I was born, probably.
For anyone who does not know what the Wiz is, it is essentially the Wizard …

Saving Sarah Cain
Saving Sarah Cain is a movie I stumbled across one day when I was kind of bored of the usual stuff. It grabbed my attention because it was about a city girl raising her sister’s Amish children. It is a great way of learning more about this rather quite …
Failure to Launch, Tom Dey Movie
For most people in the west, a child who has entered the age of twenty years usually have separate living with they parents. However, it appeared that this does not apply for Tripp, a youth aged thirty years that still endure living with both parents. In the work he …
Scenes of a Sexual Nature
I watched this film, very oddly named, Scenes of a Sexual Nature, on DVD last night. I have had high hopes for this film since first hearing about it a couple of years ago, as it features a strong British cast including Catherine Tate, Ewen McGregor and Hugh Bonneville …
Movie: Deck the Halls
It’s Christmas time again and my wife and I are starting to watch some of our favorite Christmas movies for yet another time this year.
One of the movies happened to come on last night just before bed, Deck the Halls. And, I love this movie so much, I stayed …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
As a big Harry potter fan I went to see the motion picture Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at the local movie theatre. However I must say that I am disappointed. David Yates does not do justice to the book at all. I see it as …
Kill Theory movie
A friend of mine had the DVD for Kill Theory, and I decided to kill time while I was at their house and watch it, even though even the title seemed very corny to me, and I’m usually very wary of a lot of horror movies that seem to …
Bus 174
Bus 174 is a movie that I really enjoyed watching with my sister and brother. We love watching hostages movie scenario, but felt that to happen in real life would be devastating. But I love watching how the characters blend and try to escape, something like that. …
The Parent Trap,1998 movie
This is a remake of the original, 1961 “The Parent Trap”. Unlike many remakes, it is actually good. Two girls meet at a summer camp: Hallie Parker from California and Annie James from London. To their utter amazement, they look like twins. Neither one knew she had a twin …
Ghost Town 2008 movie
Ghost Town is one of those movies where the story is so familiar that you already know what is going to have even if you are only given a little bit of the plot. (I found this with Avatar as well). I mean, this is such a common plot …
The Hurt Locker film
Starring: Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Brian Geraghty, Evangeline Lilly, Ralph Fiennes, David Morse, Guy Pearce, and Christian Camargo.

The Hurt Locker is one of the best war films made in a while, one that deserves to sit up there along with Steven Spielberg’s Saving Private Ryan and …
Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Sweeny Todd was such a great movie! I saw it at the Prescreening. It was a very dark and very musical and funny film all at once! I think Johnny Depp did a great job of playing the part of Sweeny Todd. I also think everyone else did a great …
Bleak House (2005)
Bleak House is one of those movies I can watch over and over again. I am speaking of the newer, 2005 version, although the older one, that of 1985, is also well done (it had been one of my favorite movies until the new one came out). This movie, …
Delta Farce
This movie wasn’t all that good. There were a couple of funny parts in the movie but nothing was really funny. Nothing in the film made me laugh. Overall it was alright but I didn’t really like it. I didn’t care for it. I wouldn’t recommend it to hardly …

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace movie
It looks like Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace took a lot of time coming. It was almost like the long wait for James Cameron’s Avatar, many years after Titanic established itself as the unbeatable hit. Therefore, when it finally came to the theaters, naturally …

The Americans assemble a martials arts team to go head to head with the best competitors around the world. this movie stars Eric Roberts, James Earl Jones, Phillip Rhee and Chris Penn as the most famous of all the characters in the movie. Their trials take them to the …
Final Fantasy VII Advent Children
Final Fantasy is always famous for its in-game cg movie, but can we really expect it to be a great movie if it’s only a full time in-game cg without gameplay? Yes, Final Fantasy VII proved that. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children is the second cg movie done …
Hi Fidelity film
This is one of my favourite films, and it’s based on a book by one of my favourite authors, Nick Hornby. It stars John Cusack, as Rob, a hapless record store owner who is obsessed by lists. After his relationship breaks down he lists his five most …
Four Weddings And A Funeral
Remember watching Hugh Grant’s performance in Four Weddings And A Funeral the movie..? Well, I loved it very much and I could still remember this very delightful story.
Imagine you liking and admiring someone and having to find out the person you like has to go away the …
101 Dalmations
I am reviewing the Disney movie, 101 Dalmations. I am a huge dog lover and so this movie is perfect for me. I also love the whole London scene, even though I’ve never been there. I would like to go someday. This movie is about Pongo and …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I viewed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on HBO. I found the fifth Harry Potter film to be the darkest of them. Possibly, because of Harry’s general anger in this film.
I actually liked the movie better than the book. I am normally the type …
The History Boys
The History Boys is about some cute looking boys in a school, who has some strict regime and school lesson periods. They are all a dish to watch out for, and I can’t memorize their names, as the whole time I was watching this movie, I was just …
“Up in the Air” (2009 film)
Director Jason Reitman, in his third feature (after “Juno” and “Thank You for Smoking”) delivers “Up in the Air,” a more heartfelt and poignant effort than either of its predecessors-stylized in a similar way, but much more honest in its pathos-tinged comedy. It works better for me story-wise because …
Karate Kid
My husband and I went to the movies over the weekend to see the new Karate Kid. It is great and literally had the whole audience clapping at the end of the movie! This one is even better than the original. They couldn’t have gotten a better actor than …
Abbott & Costello Meet the Mummy
Since I watched their film, Jack and the Beanstalk, I have been wanting to once again watch Abbott and Costello movies. So, I started watching one I haven’t seen before (except for the ending), Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy.
The movie was OK but not as funny as some …
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)
When my family rented the film from our local Hastings a couple of weeks ago, I had no idea what this “Sweeney Todd” character entailed. Indeed, the name sounded more of the same banal comedic drudgery that plagues the genre. My initial suspicions were proved utterly superficial when I …
Pursuit of happiness
Pursuit of Happiness starring Will Smith is the best movie I had ever seen in terms of potraying the real life situation. The struggle to existence and the survival of the fittest theory has been explained beautifully in the movie. Will smith acts as a ordinary sales person although …
Deception, Marcel Langenegger Movie
Plot taken for the film is simple, namely on guile someone to lie to other people and I think that is very interesting, packed by the director. Hugh Jackman combination with Erwan McGregor is very good and can offset one with the other.
This story started when Jonathan McQuarry …
License To Drive (1988)
When I was a teenager back in the eighties, I thought the “Two Coreys” (Corey Feldman and Corey Haim) were the funniest guys around. I have seen every one of their movies, and still watch them to this day. One of the funniest movies of the ’80s, and just …
Aint It Cool News website
If you love movies as much as I do, then it stands to reason that you also like to hear about developments on movies that have yet to come out or about the different ideas being thrown around Hollywood and other parts of the world. You can get …
Space Camp
If you read the description on the back of the box, the movie Space Camp probably will sound like something so far fetched it isn’t worth watching. But, resist that desire to put it back on the shelf and rent it anyway.
Of all the 80s science fiction films to …
Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999)
Teaching Mrs. Tingle, directed by Kevin Williamson is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for thematic content, violence, sexuality, language and some teen drinking.

Happy Feet
Happy Feet (2007) This movie was a charmer! I loved it as much as my grandkids. It is a happy, feel good movie. It makes you want to get up and start dancing. This is one of the best children’s movies I have seen. I could …
“The Toolbox Murders” (1978 Film)
The Toolbox Murders is a well known “slasher” film released in 1978. I had heard good about the name before and, being a huge horror film enthusiast, I figured it was well worth giving a view. After seeing the film, I feel that it was a good film that …
The Amazing Spiderman (movie)
Even though I originally had no intention of watching the new Spiderman movie because I’m a huge fan of the previous ones, I eventually changed my mind and watched it recently. Up to a few minutes before I still had some fairly low expectations of it, for me to …
