27 Dresses
The other day, I gave in to my wife and watched the romantic comedy 27 Dresses with her.

My biggest complaint about the film, which is about a woman who has attended …

Hancock
Hacock has Will Smith in it and he plays a superhero. When I first rented the movie, I wanted to see it but it wasn’t a movie that I was that excited about seeing. Now I am glad that I watched it. I liked Hancock because it wasn’t all …
McHales Navy movie
The retired old commander named McHale is recalled to the navy after his arch enemy takes over the Island San Marino.
Stupid, stupid movie that almost makes me laugh at how amateurishly made it is. Bruce Campbell is almost charming, but the fact is that he always appeared in second …
A Dead Calling
A Dead Calling is the kind of movie that I would only watch as a last resort, or because it was cheap. In my case it was a little of both. My local video rental place was clearing out some of their older movies, and I managed to grab …

Land of the Dead, movie (2005)
When zombies made their return to the forefront of horror film, there were almost as many good ones as bad ones. For every good one like 28 Days Later and Shaun of the Dead, there were bad ones like the remakes for Dawn of the Dead and Day …
Inside Man
When I first saw the preview for Inside Man, my excitement level wasn’t as high as it is expected to be with a movie that has two of my favorite actors ever, Clive Owen and Denzel Washington (also I believe that Spike Lee is an underrated director). Nothing …
Rhythm and Blues Revue movie
Rhythm and Blues Revue labeled with a 1955 release is really just a bunch of performances down like a night club show. There’s no story plot; there’s only the show. However, it is a lot of fun, with a full roster of African American performers.
Below are a …

Kramer versus Kramer movie
Kramer versus Kramer is not a recent movie and it is all for some years on dvd available but in my opinion it is a movie that you can see every year without boring you.
The proof that this movie is a good one is because of the 5 oscars: …
Point Break DVD - Pure Adrenaline Edition

Scary Movie 4
After seeing Scary Movie 4 this past weekend, I was glad to finally see a movie series that gets better with time. Since dumping the Wayan Brothers prior to the third movie, the plots in the Scary Movie series have gotten more mature and focus more on movie spoofs …
Valkyrie movie
Before I rented “Valkyrie” last night, I decided that it might be good, despite my dislike of Tom Cruise, because it has two things going for it that I like: it is based on a true story, and it is set during WW2, and I am a big fan …
The Whole Ten Yards movie
The movie “The Whole Ten Yards” is actually the sequel to the movie “The Whole Nine Yards” which was released in the year 2000. I didn’t hear of this sequel though until about two or three years ago when I saw it being broadcast on a cable television channel. …

“Premium Rush” is about bicycle messengers working in Manhattan. The messengers seem to have an embedded code of the area: They are seen rushing past stoplights; riding against the heavy New York traffic; hurling themselves and their transport over all types of barriers and seemingly not knowing …
Midway movie
In 1976, Midway was released. This large, star-filled ensemble cast tells the story of the battle of Midway. For me, there are pluses and minuses to this production.
I do enjoy the story of the battle. It was important in World War II, and the story should …
Thor The Dark World Film
What happens when the gods lose their power to something more powerful and ancient than themselves, something primal - the complete darkness? “Thor :The Dark World” is a film in which I think that the team of Marvel reaches a whole new level in their skills… Expertly served storyline …
The Perfect Storm movie
With a cast of actors such as George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg and Diane Lane, the movie “The Perfect Storm” had a certain guarantee to be a good movie. I must say that after watching it, what really stole the scene in this movie are the extraordinary special effects. It …
The Extra Man movie 2010
At one point I wondered why there aren’t more eccentric characters in one film. The answer is that they not occur. It seems that you can not cram a young English teacher with bizarre sexual inclinations, an old bearded playwright gigolo and a mechanic with a high voice who …
Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers
Lord Of The Ring: The Two Towers (hereafter “Two Towers”) is the second movie in the Lord Of The Rings trilogy. I guess if there is a weak link in the trilogy, this would be the movie, simply because the story neither starts nor ends in this …
Dumb and Dumber (1994)
You can watch this movie over and over again and still not know which of the two are the dumbest of the lot. On one hand you have Lloyd; he is a limo driver who gets himself involved into a situation that does not concern him when he intercepts …
Finding Neverland - (starring Johnny Depp)
Finding Neverland is one of the best movies that I watched and it featured both extremely talented and amazing actress and actor. They are none other than Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet.

Movie The Candidate
“What do we do now?”
It’s a simple question, but it’s a chilling one when asked by Bill McKay in The Candidate. McKay is played brilliantly by Robert Redford. He’s a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate. He’s idealistic, and he doesn’t believe in making deals. …
Shivaji
Last week I had been to the very popular and houseful movie and the name of which is Shivaji. Originally this is a Tamil movie in which the famous and very popular actor Rajnikanth has performed the role of the hero. The hero has given his best …

Based on the 1960 film of the same title and directed by acclaimed director of such films as Traffic and Erin Brockovich, Steven Soderbergh, Ocean’s Eleven is a cool hi-tech comedy. Starring some of Hollywood’s most popular actors, it’s the story of Danny Ocean (George Clooney), a newly released …

28 Days Later movie
Okay, they’re not zombies. They’re very much alive human beings infected with a virulent virus that transforms the most soppy and placid person into a homicidal, red eyed lunatic. They’re never referred to as zombies once in the script and the rules of this new movie monster are very …

Wrong Turn
Last night wasn’t the first time I’ve watched the movie Wrong Turn. In fact, I can’t remember for sure, but I might even have written a review about it. But, I just have to say, every time I watch that film, I can�t get over how stupid it is.
Here …

See No Evil (R, 2006) movie
Horror movies these days have taken the plunge–into the cheesy. I thought “See No Evil” would be one of those films. And to a degree it is. The same character set-up applies which involves a group of teens and a creepy old house. This time …
Last Man on Earth movie (1964)
One thing I’ve always had a soft spot for is post appocalyptic films, and the 1964 version of the movie “Last Man on Earth” is just that. In fact, the first thing it reminded me of was the most recent version of the movie “I am Legend” starring the …
Return of the Blind Dead, movie (1973)
I first came across Tombs of the Blind Dead unintentionally. I stumbled across it while looking through Netflix. Hearing good things about it, I watched it and I loved it. A few years later, I had a chance to see the sequel. As much as …

Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Journey to the Center of the Earth was fantastic. This movie is 3D. You are given 3D glasses upon purchasing your ticket. As for the movie, it was quite good. The 3D effects are used well. I believe that they could’ve been used even more than they were, but …
