I actually like Blockbuster a lot more than Netflix because you can return the movies to the store instead of mailing them in and waiting to receive new movies. Not only can you return the movies that were mailed to you to the store, but you can also trade …
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, movie
Like many others who watched and re-watched the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy multiple times, I had high hopes for “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.” But, after sitting through the film, I was left very disappointed.
First of all, the film was too long. Now, I understand that “The Hobbit” …
50 First Dates movie
I must admit, at first I thought that this movie, 50 First Dates is just another love story with a touch of comedy and humor. But I was wrong. Maybe others are looking at this movie that way, but for me, it is also a story of a great …
Raise Your Voice
I watched Raise Your Voice starring Hilary Duff the other day and it was not a bad story altogether. In fact, I enjoyed it very much. Her character name in this story is Terri Fletcher (nice name, I must say) and she goes to this school where music …

Harry Potter & The Sorcerer’s Stone
This is it. The starting of the legend. I had briefly heard the name of Harry Potter, ut paid no attention to it. That is, until I saw this movie. After that, I was hooked. On the movie, the characters, the world of Harry Potter.
I think this first movie …

The Ring
There are people who love watching horror movies and there are others who just don’t bother. I’m the latter. I get scared easily so I don’t watch too many horror movies. But my sister insisted that we should watch The Ring because it had alot of good reviews. So …
Dorothy Mills movie
I am a big fan of horror movies, but not gore. Most movies with tons of gore seem to use it as a substitute for plot or character development. When I find a movie that is genuinely creepy without resorting to gore or cheap scares, I take notice.
Dorothy …
Gravity (science fiction movie)
Gravity is one of those movies that I kept hearing from people that I had to see. I couldn’t really understand why either since I thought that the trailer didn’t really appeal to me much, and I’m not too fond of many of the movies that the actress Sandra Bullock …

Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie
I saw the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks The Squeakquel at my local MJR Family Film Festival. I was a bit not-so-happy to go see it but it only cost my wife and I two bucks and our daughter got in free.
It ended up being a pretty cute …

Edward Scissorhands (starring Johnny Depp)
Edward Scissorhands is a very heart-wrenching story that makes me cry buckets each time I watched. I just can’t get enough of Johnny Depp in this story and this is one of the best movies by him ever that I dubbed him one of the best actors. He totally deserves …
The Moonstone movie
The Moonstone is an whodunit motion picture that is actually intriguing. I pretty much enjoyed it from beginning to end. The interesting thing about that is that there’s nothing magical or outstanding about the plot.
At key moments, for example, each member of the cast gives that ‘I’m …

Interstellar - Movie (2014)
I had the privilege of seeing Interstellar in theatres yesterday. I had high expectations for the film, given that Christopher Nolan is the director. I was not disappointed, I was actually amazed. Interstellar had a great story and the visuals were a treat. I’m glad I had the chance to …
The Shepard Border Patrol
I admit that I haven’t watched a lot of Jean Claude Van Damme’s movies. If I have to see a bunch of men jumping, kicking and screaming, I choose to see it through a comic aspect, so I go for a Jackie Chen movie. I broke my rule for …
Final Destination, movie
Death is alive and well in this film about teenagers dealing with a recent tragedy and trying to survive a fate that was written in stone. “Final Destination” is more than just a film with some creative killings; it’s a movie where death is personified without being a physical …
Where The Heart Is

Men in Black 3 (movie)
One of the movies that I watched this summer was “Men in Black 3”, starring the first movie’s original actors, Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. I have to admit that before I saw it, I was somewhat eager to watch the movie being that the plot sounded very …
Stuck (R, 2007) movie
I can recall the actual events surrounding this little film. Quite frankly, I was surprised to even see something like this on Netflix. But since Hollywood will make a movie out of anything, I shouldn’t be that surprised. The true story centers around a young African-American …
Farce Of The Penguins
Well here is another Penguin movie my daughter rented last night,but this one is an adult movie. “The Farce Of The Penguins” was mad funny. We laughed our butts off. Well of course Bob Saget was in it, as well as Christina Applegate, Lewis Black, Mo’nique, Tracy Morgan. The …
Gidget Grows Up
There was a bit of hiatus between the original three Gidget movies and TV series of the early and mid-60’s to this made-for-TV movie of 1969, but it was worth the wait. Gidget Grows Up is in reality my third favorite of the entire Gidget franchise. It’s …
Twilight Saga: Eclipse Movie
I am also a twilight fan and came to love the book, the characters and the movie itself. I never miss to watch each of its episodes when it came out. The best Twilight Series that I’m so into is the Eclipse.
I think among the three episodes the last …
The Dark Half,movie
The Dark Half, starring Timothy Hutton, was released in the early 1990’s. It is a very poor attempt at a suspense/horror movie. The action is very slow, and character development is lacking.
This movie is based on a fairly good novel by Stephen King. As with most movies made from …
An Inconvenient Truth
An Inconvenient Truth is probably one of the biggest documentaries around these days. Certainly it fulfilled its mission of making people start talking an awful lot about global warming. Of course, the question is, just how true is it all.
Mr. Gore has a lot of problems in …
The Reaping (R, 2007) movie
This is not your ordinary horror film. Based on some pretty heavy Biblical references, if you are not into supernatural themes, you will get really bored with this one. That being said, Hilary Swank gives a believable performance in this thriller. This isn’t the type of …

This episode introduces Science Fiction into Sherlock Holmes. A woman hires Holmes after being terrified by some sort of monster who …

When A Stranger Calls (2006) movie

I had a friend recently recommend the movie Juno to me. From the trailers, the movie didn’t really stand out to me, and I probably wouldn’t have realized it existed if not for this friend. That is all beside the point, however, because I’m very glad I …

Iron Man
Today I went to see Iron Man. What an excellent film.
This is the first of all the Marvel films that I feel like really had it all. A good plot, story line, special effects, cast of characters and really solid acting.
It’s rare to find this combination in a film …
