Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
I have noticed that many people who have reviewed Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen in papers and on the internet have not given it the greatest reviews. I went and saw the movie for myself and I do not completely agree with the reviews. Yes, the movie is …
The Happening Movie
Since I first saw “The Sixth Sense” several years ago, I have been a fan of M. Night Shyamalan’s work. There is this “doomsday theme” that he always illustrate in his works. Sometimes, he offers us eccentricities in his stories which is a really good way of entertaining us. …
Romancing the Stone movie (1984)
(Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito)
Hollywood movies simply don’t get any better than this! Romancing the Stone is pure escapist entertainment: high adventure, lowly villains, handsome heroes, gorgeous—”and brainy—”women in distress, occasionally clumsy yet resourceful villainous sidekicks, incredible locations and a fun and sumptuous soundtrack.
Turner plays …
Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010) Movie
I just recently saw the movie Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale. It is a finnish movie and it rates as 6.9/10 in IMDB that is why I decided to see it. I like foreign films and this looks quite interesting for me. The title itself boggled me for a …

Detachment (drama movie)
The film Detachment is a little different from the dramas that I’m used to watching, and this is why I liked it so much. It is its raw and gritty nature that attracts me to it, and the fact that it does nothing to conceal certain elements that are bordering …
Bubba Ho-Tep movie
Normally, I like Bruce Campbell movies, but when I saw Bubba Ho-Tep, I was actually embarrassed to be watching it, and I was in the privacy of my own house.
What a stupid movie. Basically, Elvis is alive and living at a nursing home in the deep south. He ends …
Cheaper by the Dozen
When I first saw the movie “Cheaper by the Dozen” advertise I wanted to see it badly since even though it was not the type of movie which I am generally interested in, I thought that since it had a lot of children in it it might just end …

Hush movie
The movie Hush starring Jessica Lange and Gwyneth Paltrow in the main roles is a good movie in the genre of drama with an underlying thriller element. The movie though is good has a predictable story and the pace of the movie is a bit slow. But nevertheless it …
The Gravedancers
The title of this movie, The Gravedancers is very scary already. I screamed like a mad woman on some really scary scenes. I would warn viewers out there to bring all your sweater jackets, shawl, some warm drinks and good peanuts as the more this movie gets …
Autumn In New York movie
I’ve been dying to see this movie and its good I did because it was well worth it. Very touching and heartfelt. Also very sad. A definite chick movie all will love!

Dark Ride movie
Cast: Jamie-Lynn Sigler (Cathy), Patrick Renna (Bill), David Clayton Rogers (Steve), Alex Solowitz (Jim), Andrea Bogart (Jen), Jennifer Tiisdale (Liz), Dave Warden (Jonah)
This has got to be one of the most inane movies I’ve ever seen. So maddening that I was hoping the murderer would do …
When Love Begins movie
Last year 2008 my girlfriend asked me to join her in watching When Love Begins. I knew that it was going to be another chick-flick, feel-good movie wherein you have a fairy tale ending. But being the nice boyfriend that I was, not to mention sweet, I agreed. Turns out …
The Royal Tenenbaums
The Royal Tenenbaums is my favorite of all Wes Anderson’s movies, and, alongside several other films, is one of my favorites overall. The script, written by Both Anderson and frequent collaborator (and star) Owen Wilson (and nominated for an Academy Award), is, in my opinion, one of the finest …
Capote
I had heard this was such a great movie, so I borrowed it from my local library. I had intended to read the book InCold Blood by Truman Capote, I went as far as to buy a copy at a yard sale but I did not get around to …
A Clockwork Orange (movie)
Does anyone really get the movie, A Clockwork Orange? I know that I don’t! I have tried to understand if A Clockwork Orange is about more than just what you see, sort of like is there a subplot that I should be understanding, but I come up with the …
Zodiac
My aunt treated me to the movies the other night, and we decided to watch Zodiac. It was just released in my country, and I have a great time watching this movie. Here is my review.
The movie is about a killing spree that sort of terrorized San …
Mister Roberts movie
I am reviewing the movie, Mister Roberts, which was created back in 1955. Although an oldie, it is definitely a goodie. I accidently came across this movie on television about six years ago, and I immediately was hooked. This movie is filled with brilliant actors, including Henry …
Legally Blonde 2
In Legally Blonde 2, we see Reese character, Elle Woods, already embarking on a law career and she presents her case one time when she finds out that she has been fired. Luke Wilson still stars in this 2nd part of the movie and she goes along to another …
License To Wed (2007)
Popular Casts : Robin Williams, Mandy Moore, John Krasinski
Watching this movie really reminds me to “Anger Management” by Jack Nicholson so, for the people who love “Anger Management”, make sure that you watch this movie. To be honest, Robin Williams’ acting is still not better than The Genius Jack …
Death of a Hollow Man movie
I am reviewing the murder mystery movie, Death of a Hollow Man, starring Daniel Casey and John Nettles. This movie was made in 1998, was produced by Brian True-May and Betty Willingale, and is based off of the Tom Barnaby novels by Caroline Graham.
In Death of a Hollow Man, …
Netflix.com
No late fees!!! I find Netflix a wonderful service that offers many choices of movies. The local movie stores here do not offer the type of movies I enjoy. Their prices are very reasonable and now they offer to watch online from their site. I enjoy doing my …
No Reservations (2007 Romance Drama Movie)
It literally took me years to decide I was going to watch the movie “No Reservations’. This was because I thought that I wouldn’t love it even though one of my favourite actresses, Catherine Zeta-Jones was playing one of the leads. This was because I had seen it being aired …
The New World (2005 Film)
The 2005 film “The New World” starring Collin Ferrell, Christian Bale and Q’orianka Kilcher is a beautifully romantic tale that captures the rough and heart breaking story of Pocahontas. Not only was this story a version of Pocahontas that perhaps many are not familiar with, but shows in depth …
Movie: “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”
I recently saw the classic movie “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” for the first time. I can now understand why it’s a classic. The deeply disturbing story with its tragic, haunting twist ending has lingered in my mind days after watching it.
My husband picked the movie out for …

‘The Theory of Everything’ is a biographical, romantic film based on the memoir ‘Traveling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen’ by Jane Wilde Hawking. Jane Hawking was Stephen Hawking’s first wife and this movie explores the relationship between her and Hawking that her memoir describes. It’s a powerful movie, emotional …
Transformers
If you’re a child of the eighties like me, then you probably remember some cool cartoons. Not the snoopy’s and the garfield’s and stuff like that, but the more action laden cartoons like Voltron and Transformers. True to Hollywood form, they’ve taken everything you can think of and turned …
The Coffin
I think The Ring is more scarier than The Coffin. I can’t help to comment how disappointed I was at watching this movie and I guess I was so much hoping for it to be a real scary flick. But it turned out to be an emotional movie …
Final Destination 5 (movie)
Final Destination 5 is supposed to be the final installment of the series, and hopefully for movie goers such as me, the studio actually means it. This film was probably the second worst movie of the franchise with its predictable plot and obvious scene transitions in the movie.
The movie …

The Big Bang Teory (Comedy)
This was the funniest American serial comedy of all time for me. It is simply funny and not that typical funny, but a smart one. I am a big fan of this serial, The Big Bang Theory. Until now, it has reached season two and over 20 episodes of …
Left Behind The Movie
Left Behind The Movie is the first in what I consider to be a mini series about the apocalypses. It gives us the writers view point of how he see’s the event happening. Kirk Cameron does a phenomenal job playing the part of the reporter in the movie. It …

Transformers 1 Movie

Jason X
Cast:
Kane Hodder (Jason Voorhees), Lexa Doig (Rowan), Lisa Ryder (Kay-Em 14), Jonathan Potts (Prof Lowe), Melyssa Ade (Janessa), Peter Mensah (Sgt Brodski)
The only thing I like about this show is Jason Voorhees in the year 2445. This is quite refreshing they could not kill him off …
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 …
Rock of Love with Bret Michaels
Rock of Love with Bret Michaels is now in it’s second season on VH1. I got hooked on the first season because of the complete crazy chicks that were competing for his “love.” It was like a guilty pleasure that I almost felt shame for watching. …
Howl’s Moving Castle (Movie 2004)
Howl’s Moving Castle is one of the most romantic, magical and amusing movies that Studio Ghibli has produced. I was in my grade school years when I first watched Howl’s Moving Castle and I never really understood what the whole story was about. Now, several years later (I’m already …
Nanny McPhee
“Nanny McPhee” is a great fantasy movie with a comic touch. This movie shows how great Emma Thompson is, as an actress, and as a script writer.
The story of this movie is about Mr. Cedric Brown, a part excellently interpreted by Colin Firth, who is a widow and has …

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies - Movie (2014)
“The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies” is a decent effort by director Peter Jackson to wrap up the trilogy based on the novel, ‘The Hobbit’. Now I use decent very loosely as it falls far below the quality of the first two installments in the trilogy. When I watched …
Role Models movie
Role models was a lot more funnier than I thought it was going to be. The movie has Seann William Scott and Paul Rudd in it. They face jail time but instead of jail they have an opportunity to do community service instead. They have to spend time with …

Panic Room movie (2002)
