Hermione’s Dress
As I’m sure all you Harry Potter fans know, in the fourth movie, there was a dance called the ‘Yule Ball’.
Now, I read about this in the book, but I never imagined that everything would be so pretty!
When I saw Hermione’s dress in the film, I just died!!!
It’s …
The Blood of Fu Manchu movie
“The Castle of Fu Manchu” is one of Christopher Lee’s older movies. Like the other movie “The Castle of Fu Manchu”, most people I know either like this film or hate it. It never seems to be in between. Personally I think this one is not much better than …

Grizzly Rage
Grizzly Rage Starring Tyler Hoechlin Graham Kosakoski and Kate Todd
I got Grizzly Rage out because my husband and I were hoping to see a good old fashioned scary film. I have seen other movies where bears have attacked people and the bears are so fast and powerful that they …
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
I first started reading Shakespeare’s plays when I was about eight years old, in more easy to understand translations. The translation which I had used was “Lamb’s Tales in Shakespeare” so plays such as “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at the time seemed very interesting to me. Therefore, that is …

The Watchmen (2009, Zack Snyder) film
You probably know the tag-line “Who is watching the watchmen?” and should add yourself to the list of people doing just that.
I’m a confessed sci-fi/fantasy geek, pretty up there in the scale but short of Klingon-speaking-Con-attending-Trekkie status. So I knew I would like this film. Even if you’re not …
Inkheart movie
The moment I heard what “Inkheart” was about, I knew I had to see that movie. For someone who loves books, the concept of book characters coming out from the pages into our world is fascinating.
“Inkheart” is based on a novel by Conrelia Funke. Those who have read the …
Twilight movie
Twilight movie that recently launched some time ago to make a lot of hype because this movie adapted from the famous novel with the same title.
My own is a novel Twilight lovers, so I look forward this movie when it play in my country. And yesterday I can …
Movie The Weatherman
We watched a movie the other night with Nicholas Gage in it. Although I like Nicholas Cage as an actor this was not one of his better movies.
I did not like the defeative attitude of the chaacchter that he played. He was a weatherman who …
Disney’s Peter Pan
Peter Pan by Disney is one of my favorite Disney classics and it beings back some great memories. Peter Pan will always be a classic movie in my view. I like the whole story about how he does not want to grow up and always stay a kid. I find …

Stargate SG-1 - Brief Candle
The “Brief Candle” episode of Stargate SG-1 is an okay episode. I watch it alot, but it’s not a huge favorite. There are things I love about it, and there are aspects that keep it from being a stellar show.
The opening scene is wonderful. Richard Dean …
You, John Jones!
You, John Jones! is a great little film short with a stellar cast. James Cagney appears as John Jones with Ann Sothern as his wife and Margaret O’Brien as his daughter. O’Brien is just adorable and so passionate and intense as she recites a patriotic piece.
This film …
Blue Jasmine: A Movie
A few nights ago, my husband and I were watching television when he stumbled across Blue Jasmine on HBO. I had never seen it before, but he had seen it and thought that I would like it. I can’t claim to be a huge Cate Blanchet fan, but I …

Ironman Movie
Ironman, new movie released on 2nd May 2008, one of best “machine” movie I ever see after Transformers. Since Ironman one of comic/superhero character, publisher need to create different story between others superhero such as spiderman,batman and superman. The difference is ironman not a super biological person but rather …
Film Family Plot
Alfred Hitchcock’s final film, Family Plot is a gentle little final film for one of cinema’s greatest filmmaker’s ever. It is thrilling but it is not one of his trips into the world of stark horror that he delved into with Psycho or the Birds.
And this suits him just …

Frankie and Johnny movie
Where to start talking about this musical film, Frankie and Johnny? It’s a 1966 release that has a lot of singing Elvis Presley and, of all persons, Donna Douglas as his co-star. Douglas is best known as Elly May Clampett on The Beverly Hillbillies. While I …
Die Hard 4.0 Movie Starring Bruce Willis
For me, Bruce Willis will always be the godfather of action films and he just simply has a way of playing his role sole well that whenever I see him in a different setting, outside of a film and in an interview, it has a certain unnaturalness about it …
Ocean’s Thirteen
I am a big fan of the Ocean’s movies. I loved the first one, thought twelve was ok at best. I believe Ocean’s Thirteen is a return to form for the Ocean’s movies. The things I didn’t like about Twelve are fixed in this movie. …
Inception Movie
A day before watching the movie “Inception” by Christopher Nolan (the director of the Dark Knight trilogy) something happened to me very strange - I dreamed that I dream about dreaming. The next night I barely slept. I say all this because normally I have troubles sleeping and this …
Iron man
Although I have always likes movies about superheroes in last few years I haven’t seen many good ones so I wasn’t expecting anything specially from Iron man either.
I know the story of Iron man because I saw so many cartoons about it and I have always liked them so …
Netflix
Renting movies used to be such a hassle. You had to go to the store, hope they had what you were looking for, pay like 5 bucks a movie, and then get fees for being late or not rewinding the tape (there’s an antiquated reference if ever there …
“Juno” film
Thanks to TBS I was able to watch “Juno” for the first time. I’m happy this movie finally made it to cable television.

Pulp Fiction movie
When Pulp Fiction was released, I had not seen a good movie like this in a while. Pulp Fiction held my attention from the moment the movie started and I waited with my breath held to see what would happen next until the end of the movie. John Travolta …
High School Musical
This movie was very popular, especially among the preteen girl crowd. I can see why - they definitely chose actors/actresses that would appeal to that age group, including the boy who plays Troy (main character).
The movie itself is sort of silly in the way a lot of kids movies …
Crazy, Stupid, Love Movie (2011)
Crazy, stupid, love. Is by far one of the best comedies of all time. Watching this movie was a very uplifting and refreshing experience. The movie stands out in the myriad of bad, empty and stupid romantic comedies that were released in the last few years. I practically gave …
The War Room (2015 film)
The Kendrick Brothers (Alex, Shannon and Stephen) have been making Christian-based films for over a decade now and they just keep getting better. They started out with the decidedly low budget “Flywheel” in 2003 and their fifth (and latest) film is 2015’s “War Room,” the best of the lot.
Here’s the …

Uncommon Valor movie
In the early 80’s, I remember watching this movie about Marines going on some kind of special meeting. This was one of those movies that used to air a lot on late night television, long before cable came about for most of us. I loved the movie …
G-Force movie
This movie is about guinnea pigs having the skills to be secret agents. As most of the ’superhero type’ movies, they are there to save the world from threat or destruction.
The movie is basically for kids. The main characters were presented in a ‘cute’ manner. The …
Killjoy
When I let my daughter pick out the movie Killjoy for me and my wife (she’s four and picks movies based on the cover) I was a bit concerned it would be too scary for my pregnant spouse.
As it turns out, you can’t judge a DVD by its cover. …
Maid In Manhattan
I love Jennifer Lopez as a singer and dancer so whenever she has a new movie I try so hard to be able to see it. I like seeing her as a chambermaid in this movie Maid in Manhattan. I like so much how she acted as a single …
Apocalypto
I don’t think I was fully prepared for what a wonderful film this would be. Set in ancient Mayan times, this film directed by Mel Gibson follows a tribe of Mayans who are in fight for their very existence when a neighboring tribe destroys their village and then …
Batman The Dark knight
Last year when I saw Batman begins I was eagerly waiting for the next sequel of Batman when Jim Gordon in the end of the movie showed a joker card to Batman and told him that a person left a card for him. I saw the first day first …
Seven Brides For Seven Brothers movie
A musical for all ages and a definite must have to any movie collector. I first saw this movie in childhood and to this day my family can still hear me using quotes from the film in addition to singing (offkey i might add) the ever popular tunes. Seven …
Save the last dance movie
I admit at the moment I am watching a bit of old teen movies mixed with the more recent ones. I can’t help but compare “Save the last dance 1″ with the more recent movie “Step Up 1″. I personally enjoyed watching more “Save the last dance” than “Step …

Night Shift movie
I absolutely loved Henry Winkler when he portrayed the Fonze on Happy Days. As a movie star, I think he’s OK in a supporting role. When it comes to carrying a movie, like he did in Night Shift, he’s just not that good.
The idea behind Night Shift was a …
The Gambler- 2015, Drama, Thriller Movie
This movie is the remake of the movie “The Gambler” released in 1974 featuring James Caan. I watched this film only because of Mark Wahlberg, but I have to say that it was his one of the worst movie ever. It looks great on the paper because of its brilliant …
Julie and Julia
I wasn’t prepared to like Julie and Julia when I rented it on DVD; although I enjoy Nora Ephron’s writing, whether it is books or screenplays, I just didn’t think a movie about the famed cook Julia Child would be that interesting. Despite the fact that she remains one of …
