Ever since the good old “Even Stevens” days, I have been a Shia LaBeouf fan. His sarcastic, wise-guy attitude and his ability to pull off “dumb” dialog makes him a very appealing actor. I have enjoyed watching LaBeouf’s career mature as he began to play more serious …

I like Abbott & Costello movies, even though they do get repetitive after a while. And, suprisingly, I’ve never seen the film Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man; until last night that is.

Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire contains spoilers.
Usually, a more action-oriented movie like this would be at or near the top of my list of favorites since the action/adventure genre is one of my top two movie genres. But Harry Potter and the Goblet …

Those of you who enjoyed watching “The Father of the Bride” with Steve Martin will probably find it interesting to see this older version of the same story, filmed in 1950. Do not expect the same thrill though; watching this movie is more like going to a museum: educational …

Wynn and Dodd were technicians, …
