Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds
The movie industry has always been filled with historical fiction from its inception. Fanciful depictions of factual incidents has graced Hollywood screens for the better part of the last century.

As a comic book fan I often find that these films are like …
Half Caste (movie)
This is without doubt one of the dullest and boring movies I have ever seen. Watching this film unfold on your TV will put you to sleep. Worst, it’s supposed to be a horror movie! Horror movies as you very well know should be filled with suspense, scary moments …
Blade Trinity movie
Just when you think they could not do better than the original and the sequel…they came out with Trinity…BAD IDEA. It’s nice that they wanted to bring the first, the original vampire into the mix of things, but, they did a real terrible job with his portayal. Dracula (Drake) …

Shrek The Third, Chris Miller, Raman Hui Movie
It is the obligation of a son to replace the task father in law as King when King Harold hospital. Not like, Shrek I feel it is not suitable to become King of Far Far And Away. Understandably, although already a member of the kingdom, many prefer to take …
Marie and Bruce
Marie and Bruce is the most boring movie I have seen these days and I literally got a head ache after watching this movie. The film has nothing in it. The most important thing for a film is the story which is not there atleast a bit in this …

Horror Express movie
I was digging through our movie cabinet a couple days ago (trying to find my daughter’s missing Nintendo DS) when I came across the movie Horror Express.
To be perfectly honest with you, I don’t even remember picking up this movie. I think my wife bought it for me from …
Case 39 Movie (2009)
I’ve seen Renée Zellweger do comedy from the Bridget Jones series, do drama from the movie Cold Mountain and Cinderella Man, and a little bit of both in New in Town and lots more movies she’s been so famous for, but for the first time ever I was surprised …
The Last Kiss DVD
One of my favorite actors, Zach Braff (from the movie Garden State, and the popular tv show Scrubs), stars in a movie from 2006 called The Last Kiss. The movie is rate R for sexuality, nudity, and language. It’s only 103 minutes, so the movie isn’t stretched out. I …

The Love Guru movie
I enjoy a Mike Meyers movie now and then. He has not made a movie I really liked since Austin Powers but my Neflix list was empty and I decided to give this movie a try. It was about like any Mike Meyers or Jim Carrey movie. …
Movie Descent
My cousin loved this movie when she saw it in the theaters. So when it came out on dvd she bought it and gave it to me to let me borrow and watch it. I thought it was really good. The only thing I didn’t like it in was …

300 (The Movie)
Being a fan of action and adventure, I had high hopes for this movie. I can gladly say that I was not disappointed. It was so great and kept me on the edge of my seat. The scenes were beautifully done and so picturesque. It told the story of …
Movie : Superstar (1999)
Superstar is yet another in a long line line of films based on short skits from the popular variety television show Saturday Night Live. There has been a few of these skit to movie translations over the hears heralding such comedic successes as WAYNE’S WORLD, A NIGHT AT THE …
The Deep End of the Ocean
I haven’t seen this movie for years until I saw it on television again late last year. It has a similar name to another movie called “The Deep End” and is not to be confused with it as they both have two completely different plots. Nevertheless I think that …
This Land Movie
A parody on the presidential election in USA 2004 where animated versions of George Bush and John Kerry insults each other in the most bizarre way. Even though this is very exaggerated it is easy to understand what the filmmakers point was. However, I can’t see why one would …
Splice Movie (2009)
She’s hot!
She’s dangerous!
And…She’s not ENTIRELY human!

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (Movie)
I had heard and read a lot about The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus before I watched in on DVD yesterday. I have followed the director Terry Gilliam’s career from his Monty Python days, and have very much admired his somewhat strange and eccentric art and movies. I had also …
Movie : The Incredibles from Disney / Pixar
“The Incredibles” was an amazing animated movie that follows the adventures of a super hero family that is forced into hiding when the government is overwhelmed by lawsuits from people who are injured while being saved by different superheros. Robert aka Mr. Incredible was a really amazing character that …
Movie The Terminal
I read so much good reviews about this romantic movie that ended up with very high expectations while watching. While I must admit that Tom Hanks is simply great, this movie cannot be classified with a great romantic ending.It seems that even the director of this movie Spielberg was …
Delta Force 2
Delta Force 2 : The Colombian Connection with Chuck Norris, Billy Drago, and Richard Jaeckel.
Since I enjoyed the original Delta Force, I looked forward to another action packed Chuck Norris film. Sadly, Mr. Norris appeared to be sleep walking through this work and obviously put …

If you love Owen Wilson, you will surely love watching this new latest movie out now. I managed to catch it, and this story is about an ex-convict, who tries to make a new living for himself, and works in a retirement hotel.
He wanted to win back the …
Diary of the Dead, 2007 (DVD)
Wow.
There really aren’t words to describe this movie. I had heard not-so-good reviews about this film but knew I had to see it for myself. I wish I had heeded their call.
Diary of the Dead was crap. Plain and simple. I was so …

The Avengers Movie in 3D
Having grown up on comic books I was a excited about seeing the avengers. While I am no longer a comic book reader I like seeing the movies that mirror the comics that I read as a kid. I was really excited about The Avengers because this …
Battlefield Earth movie
A film that is supposed to be based on a classic science fiction novel by L. Ron Hubbard, however the story is changed that much it’s fair to question the filmmaker’s intentions. John Travolta appears in his perhaps not proudest moment ever, as the leader of an alien species …
The Unborn (2009 horror film)
The Unborn is a horror film that I watched one evening after running across the title on the internet movie database. I was interested, even though the description of the film is brief and leaves much to the imagination.
The unborn sounded like it was going to be the spooky …
COBRA, the movie (1986)
When motorcyclists start chasing under the window in the middle of the night, I immediately think of this movie. Sly was so good at shooting them with a machine gun on the move! Except I wouldn’t take a machine gun, but a heavy machine gun and enough ammo to go …
Super 8 (2011 Movie)
For me, Super 8 was surprisingly good film considering the trailer did absolutely nothing for me. From great performances to an intense build-up of suspense, it’s a very enjoyable film.
Although the film’s director, J.J. Abrams is known for his first-person photography, this movie really benefits from the fact that …
Running Scared Paul Walker
I originally thought this was a remake of the old Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines movie but soon realized it wasn’t. I decided to watch it anyway and have to admit it was pretty good. It was fast paced enough for me and I could even deal with the …

Movie: Deadly Honeymoon
There wasn’t much on TV this past weekend so my wife and I ended up watching a movie that we found on TV; Deadly Honeymoon.
This was a made-for-TV movie from Lifetime I think and I really wasn’t expecting it to be any good. But, after watching it, I do …
Movie About a Boy
As I’ve indicated in other reviews, I’m not a huge fan of British movies. And, the Hugh Grant film About a Boy is a good example of why.
Grant plays his normal character, a single man who looks to hook up with various women and starts out lying to them …
Fever Pitch movie
Fever Pitch, starring Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon, has been out on video for a few months now, but if you haven’t seen it yet, I highly recommend it.
This is a great date night movie. Guys - it has baseball! What more can you ask for? …
The A-Team (2010) movie
Saw this really later than it came out in theaters but I have to said it was alot better than I had expected. I had never seen the tv show before so yes I know that my view was not based on the original tv show so everyone will …
Fargo (1996) Movie
Based on the synopsis of this film by Joel and Ethan Cohen, I would not have bothered with Fargo, but a friend whose opinion I trusted recommended I watch it and it is now one of my favorites. Set in wintry Minnesota, William H. Macy plays a dodgy …
Don’t Mess with the Zohan
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, …
Storm Warning Movie
Storm Warning is easily one of the best horror movies that I’ve seen in a long time, which is ironic considering that it isn’t really a horror movie, at least not in the traditional sense. If a magazine were to review this movie they would probably say it falls …
My little village movie
Czech comedy with a lot of seriousness to it from the 80s. The film was directed by a man called Jiri Menzel, and involves a number of different people in a small Czech village. It really has no real point to it, only everyday events are depicted, and that …
