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 …

My wife decided to have a night out with her friends Friday night and, since I was left home with the kids, I decided to take advantage of it and spend some quality time with my two girls.

I realize that most people think this is the worst film in the entire series of Friday the 13th movies, but I actually did like it. I think what I liked the most was that it almost feels as if the producers know people will think it’s cheesy so …

LMAO FUNNY!!! The best movie of the year for kids and teens. I could watch this over and over and never get tired of it. This movie has a mix of feelings, you could go from feeling sorry for some and almost crying to laughing your pants off.Parts of …

I didn’t find the comedy “Hall Pass” to be as hilarious as some reviewers made it out to b. To me it was moderately funny, which was much better than I expected a comedy starring “Owen Wilson” to be since I usually think his comedies are lacking in humour. …

Some times I wonder if Hollywood has given up trying to come up with something original and just keeps rehashing the same plot in a different context.
The movie Pride is a perfect example of this.
Overall, Pride is an OK film. But, it’s the same film I’ve seen 20 times …

William Wyler’s The Collector, filmed in 1965, is possibly one of the most disturbing films ever made. It is a suspense film and a character study and one of the bleakest at that, as well.

Influential films and programmes come in all shapes and sizes, ones that inspire you to go out and make videos yourself. I find there are three categories of influential media: first are the ones that you’re told changed how the media industry works, like —˜Citizen Kane’ or —˜Birth or …

The Professional is an absolutely fantastic film. Normally, the crime genre isn’t really for me. But this story is beautifully told about an assassin and how his life changes when he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of a 12-year-old girl.
First of all, the acting is excellent. The assassin Leon …

I am reviewing the movie, Don’t Mess with the Zohan, starring Adam Sandler and a variety of other actors. So…how to explain this movie? There’s this Pakistinian guy named Zohan and he’s really popular. He fights terrorist groups. What he really wants to do is to cut hair, …

I have probably seen Eurotrip a dozen times by now. It’s one of those movies you just have to see all over again. Love and friendship are perfectly combined in this excellent comedy which consists of a trip of a bunch of high-school graduates all over Europe.

Whoever thought having the protagonist of a movie spend most of her time talking inside her own head for the better part of 2 hours and get away with it, was painstakingly wrong.
In The Host, another Stephenie Meyer adaptation for the big screen, we start out with Saoirse Ronan …

The 3 Directors:
Bimal Roy - Kabuliwala
Satyajit Ray - Mahanagar
Vittorio De Sica - Bicycle Thieves
Among the three directors Bimal Roy has most positive attitude (in Kabuliwala), where he shows the city like the other two, as some a place where you can get employment, but he is more positive about …

I love vampire movies so it should be a bit surprising I didn’t get around to watching the film Bloodrayne until tonight.
The movie was OK but not as good as I thought it would be.
The problem with movies based on video games is they tend to assume you actually …

I have way more respect for actress Tina Fey since I started watching episodes of ‘30 Rock’ on DVD. I caught one episode when it first came on the air. But for some reason, I never followed up on the program. When Tina Fey …

The 2008 animated, family film, “The Tale of Despereaux” was filled with adorable characters and a story line that is fun and heartwarming for the entire family. If you have not yet seen this film, then I strongly urge, no matter what your age is, that you plan on …

Jennifer Garner stars in this 2004 movie and I love catching it over again in DVD as well. She plays this particular woman whom has ‘airs above her’ and she is certainly someone that is going to learn her lesson the most hardest way. That’s because she will …

I love horror movies but this one was a real dud. The horror parts were fine, the blood and gore looked believable and the death scenes were realistic and well acted. My main problem with this film is it lacked suspense and it was boring. Normally …

Ginger Snaps is one of the best older movies I’ve seen this month. Every October I watch a lot of horror movies in honor of halloween and this year for the first time I watched Ginger snaps because Netflix recommended it to me. The story follows two …

This was a great movie for me. I used to work in retail. Most movies are based out of big city office complexes, and most of the average people working in shopping centers, restaurants, or some other ordinary job. So I really related to this movie. However the …

It was rather disappointing to watch 30 Days of Night on theaters before. I think this movie was a couple of years back and I watched it with my ex boyfriend during that time.
The movie is about vampires or something and the movie effects throughout was rather …

For the longest time, I had completely forgotten about this movie. It used to be one of my favorite films of all time as a child, than I rediscovered it again as an adult for one reason. The Pixar movie, Wall-E. Wall-E really reminded me of Johnny 5 from …

I have no idea how to even describe this 1945 movie short called Open the Door Richard. It’s a strange production that I just don’t understand. It features Dusty Fletcher and the infamous Richard, if only in spirit.
I just don’t know what to say, or should I …

This is a wonderful, unfairly little known and even more unfairly not-yet-released-on-DVD comedy starring the great George C. Scott. If you are a fan of George Scott, definitely check it out! He plays (wonderfully) a veteran con artist named Mordecai Jones who maintains that “you can’t cheat an honest …

I plan on buying the entire run of horror movies from the Horror Fest 2008 series, but when they recently went on sale, I needed to pick out a few to buy. One of those that I picked was Lake Dead. Prior to watching the movie, I went online …
