The Golden Compass

Notting Hill (1999 movie)
Notting Hill was a sweet movie. I might be a bit biased because I really like Julia Roberts in romantic comedies and Hugh Grant is very good as the confused love interest (has he ever played a role where he knows what is going on?)
I particularly liked one montage …

I loved Mean Girls. I already knew Regina wouldn’t be here and this cast of the sequel would all be new but still, I’m a girl and I’d love to see how this 2nd Mean Girls movie would turn out. Turns out my expectations were right. This was nowhere …
Murder in Swingtime movie short

The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
I really enjoyed the first 2 Mummy movies, but this one was by far a huge dissappointment. I can’t believe I paid $9 to waste my time. It was poorly connected, the plot just kind of crashed together, and wierd things happened out of nowhere that had no historical …
Road to Morocco movie
The Road pictures continue with this third outing from 1942 called Road to Morocco. As with the first two films, Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and Dorothy Lamour starred. It was that same old formula, too, but that isn’t a bad thing in the case of this movie.
One of …
Keeping the Faith (2000, Edward Norton)
I found this film really enjoyable, and a tearjerker too.
And in my humble opinion, a much better romantic comedy than a lot of Stiller’s recent outings - e.g. Along Came Polly, Meet the Fockers etc.
Ben Stiller and Ed Norton play a Rabbi and a Priest respectively. They are …
V for Vendetta movie
When I first heard about “V for Vendetta” I was sceptical of whether or not the Wachowski brothers would be able to pull out a quality movie after their not so astounding Matrix Revolutions. As the movie release date approached I watched more and more movie trailers, as …

Starsky And Hutch movie

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is not bad of a movie, if you ask me. Starring Matthew McConaughey, the beautiful Jennifer Garner and the very talented Michael Douglas, this is a movie not to be watched for those loving romantic comedies.
There are quite a few laughable plots, especially …
While You Were Sleeping movie
Sandra Bullock is delightful and charming to watch in While You Were Sleeping, a nice little romantic comedy from 1995. While not necessarily a huge favorite, this movie is pleasant and all about happily ever after. It shows a fairly average woman who wants nothing more than …
The Call of the Wild, film (2020)
On the whole, I liked this film. It is kind, heartfelt, sincere, and even touching in some places. But the plot is not devoid of sins, clichés, and too simple script decisions. I know that the movie is based on a novel by Jack London. Let me tell you right …

Glorifying the American Girl movie
Glorifying the American Girl from 1929 purports to be under the direct supervision of the legendary Florenz Ziegfeld. There were lots of showgirls in this motion picture to satisfy that Rockette feeling, too. Even today, the line of girls doing those high leg kicks are incredibly popular.
I …
Scream Movie (1996)
As I was looking through the TV channels one boring Sunday afternoon, I came across “Scream”. This movie was one of the best movies that came out in 1996. I remember that a lot of my friends back in High School were really too hyped up about this movie …
The grudge 2
I watched the grudge 2 a while ago. There are a couple of things about the movie that I didn’t like. First of, I think they should have kept Sarah Michelle Gellar in the movie a lot longer than they did. Second, there were parts that were supposed to …

Fatal Secrets (movie)
Some time earlier on this year, I watched a movie named “Fatal Secrets” on the cable television channel called TMC. I was a bit hesitant to watch it at first, since it looked like just another awful low budget movie to me that would be both predictable and full …
Ocean’s Thirteen
Ocean’s Thirteen was one of the most anticipated “threequels” this year. Among a myriad of third instalments, it was one of those that were expected to improve on their predecessors and it delivers well.
The clever and thrilling plot revolves around Danny Ocean’s attempt at avenging senior Ocean member Reuben’s …
