You’ve Got Mail is one of my favourites all time romantic movies together with Sleepless in Seattle and While You Were Sleeping. The main actors in this movie are Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan who team up once again together after making Sleepless in Seattle and Joe versus the …

Protocol is a nice little comedy about Sunny Davis, a cocktail waitress who saves a dignitary and goes to work for the government. It’s a crazy story that is as probable as it is improbable in this media-conscious world of ours.
Goldie Hawn is Sunny, an upbeat, innocent, and …

The Magnificent Seven Ride with Lee Van Cleef, Michael Callan, and Stephanie Powers.
A sequel to the greatest western of all time plus the casting of Lee Van Cleef as the leader of this heroic group of cowboys made this a must see film. As a …

It is practically impossible to not have over the top expectations from a movie that has actors like Nicholas Cage and Nicole Kidman in the leading roles together on screen. And Trespass does not let down those expectations. The movie is touching, thrilling, smart and most importantly, unlike many …

This movie is a very abstract and interesting one and if you’re into Bob Dylan, you won’t be disappointed. Theres a few different characters which represent different aspects of dylans life. Theres the Wandering Child, the troubled Relationship, The Aloof/Distant Bob, and the Star/Media Bob. This movie starts off …

For some weird reason (maybe it’s Sean Connery) I actually prefer the last of the Indiana Jones trilogy, the Last Crusade, over the other two. I�m not sure why though because, when you think about it, it brings more of the bad stuff from the other two than the …

The Devils is a film from long ago that involves the murder of a Catholic priest. This priest, Father Grandier, is supposedly one of the witches and he subsequently pout through all the horrible things that witches were at that point in time. This was a time of hysteria …

My husband and I are big Kevin Costner fans, and so several nights ago we settled in to watch one of our favorite Costner movies: Water World. This movie was actually released in the mid- 90’s but it is still one of his best movie in our opinion. …

Wow 1408 was a very good and scary movie. I really thought that the acting in the movie was great. Now the movie is about a guy who spends the nights in haunted hotels and other haunted places. He writes scary books based on his experiences. But he also does …

27 Dresses is one of those cute and fluffy movies that you can watch one and then instantly forget about it. It’s not that the movie is necessarily bad, but it just doesn’t make much of an impression. I’ve seen a lot of romantic comedies over the years and …

The Craft is actually one of my most favorite teen movies. It doesn’t matter if many people might find it unrealistic because it’s all about magic and the supernatural (I’m not one of those people).
Directed by Andrew Fleming and starring Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, Robin Tunney, and Rachel True, …

There are not many mother-daughter stories anymore, and that is why I really love watching Gilmore Girls. This is The Complete First Season, and I have watch re-runs of it so many times, both on TV cable and on DVD.
There is just too much good acting, wonderful characters, …

I had not heard much about Battle L.A., which is surprising because it is the current big blockbuster alien movie and that usually means millions of dollars in advertising. The only advertising I have seen for this film is some posters in subway stations. The posters explain the basic …

This is by far, hands-down, beyond a shadow of a doubt THE worst movie theater I have ever been to in my life, and I have been to a few pretty bad ones. I have never had a movie experience so ruined as I did the night I attended …

You add a mix of deception and betrayal, throw in a dash of blindness and what do you have? You have another movie about a plot to kill the emperor or in this case, to kill the leader of a rebel group. Animation is good…not too over the top, …

I guess I am on a marathon of Jiang Yiyan’s movies. I’ve previously mentioned why I became a fan of her and I won’t repeat myself here again.
A thing I realized about her movies is that, she usually has very interesting roles but the movie itself is always lacking somehow. …

I’m a child of the 70’s. Yes, that means I was a *child* in the 70’s, so I never really was into Abba much. I just remember bopping to ‘Dancing Queen’ at the school disco (wearing my Mum’s incredibly psychodelic maxi dress if I remember correctly) so I was …

I went to see Casino Royale on New Year’s Day. I think it is the first Bond film I’ve seen at the movies since 1966. I was a little disappointed. I think this is for two different reasons.
My favorite James Bond was played by Sean Connery. He was witty, …

Monsters versus aliens is a DVD that I recently purchased and watched with my kids one day. I know that for many of us that have kids we are probably sick of watching kids movies all the time, but Monsters versus aliens is a movie that I could watch …

Koizora (Sky of Love) is the portrayal of unrealistic youthful love. What started as a sweet and innocent relationship between two Japanese high school students ends up in a chaos of conflicts only meant to happen in movies. Now, this negative perspective only occurs since the movie is …

John Carpenter’s “The Thing” was the subject of much critical dismay and reception when it first came out. Aside …

This is the 4th installment in the Indiana Jones series of films. It has been several years since the last movie was released and the film does account for that lapse in time. I am thankful for that since it would really be hard to pull off since Harrison …

I am reviewing the movie, Phantom of the Opera, the new version, which was released in 2004. It stars Emmy Rossum as Christine, a chorus girl at an opera theatre who is being taught secrety by the “angel of music,” a phantom she believes was sent to her by …

Starting from the ambiguous title, this flick sets up expectations for a superficial and possibly disgusting comedy with the kick-in-the-balls type of humor. The expectations are justified. Granted, “Balls of Fury” is a parody, but parody doesn’t have to be stupid or revolting, in my opinion.
Randy, the main character, …

From 1946, Notorious is a classic movie that has been respected and admired since it was made. It’s a movie of intrigue right from the start. It keeps you on your toes, uncertain of motivations and realities.
Filmed in black and white, Notorious stars Cary Grant as T.R. …

My son and I went to the movies today. I wanted to see a light hearted movie that I had heard about. I wanted to see the movie entitled Defiantely Maybe. This movie was about a thirtysomething year old man who is in the midst of a …

At first, the reason why i wanted to watch this movie is because i am an avid fan of Sarah Geronimo. She is a superstar in music industry in her generation here in Philippines. She made some movies before but not being the leading lady of those movies. …

When I was much younger, I had a sleepover with one of my aunts and she rented a video of a movie that she thought I would like to see. It was a few years after Jumanji was released and I never heard of the movie before that night, …

From 1934, The Barretts of Wimpole Street is a very nice movie, though I must admit I prefer one of the remakes better. Still, this was the one that started it all, and there are some fine moments to it.
I love that Flush, the dog, gets star billing …

Burn after reading is a 2008 movie of the Coen brothers. I had great expectations but I must say, right here at the beginning, and I got disappointed. First of all when I saw the list of actors; George Clooney, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand, Brad Pitt and the rest …

What I like about this movie: This is a film that can be inspiring in a way. You …

Love him or loathe him, Quentin Tarantino remains a Hollywood institution. One of only a handful of directors who can command a bigger box office clout than most stars. Not that QT is adverse to casting big named talent in his movies. On the contrary, Brad Pitt and more …

I have always loved animated movies. I have heard of this movie How to Train Your Dragon and it actually was on IMAX theatres because it was 3D. I did not see it in 3D but it is alright because I am not really keen on watching it like …

‘Feed me, Seymour!’ cries the hungry, man eating plant in Little Shop of Horrors. I love that line! That line is one of my favorite lines from a movie. Now I am not talking about the Little Shop of Horrors version made in the 1980s, I am talking about …

This movie reminds me to The Lord Of The Rings movie environment. Interesting special effect and pleased in a real creative story. Merges story in illusive world with reality life. This movie draws fantasy world by a child names Jesse. Illusion nature that is of course we usually experienced …

I really wanted to like this little film, especially since Blair Underwood was starring. This film is really pretty old, nearly 20 years. And the premise was pretty good. During this time, there were several films that tried to follow the topic of race relations. …
