Over Her Dead Body
I decided to watch “Over Her Dead Body” because I read about the movie story and thought it was an interesting one. After watching it, I ended up disappointed because the movie fails to win over the audience. The comic moments in this romantic comedy are simply half baked!

Kangaroo Jack

The Taking of Pelham 123 movie
SPOILER ALERT! Do not read this review if you haven’t viewed the film and plan on seeing it anytime soon.

Taken movie

Final Destination 2 Movie
There are only a few movies in this world that can out-do or come better than the original, and I’ll tell you that Final Destination 2 is not one of them. The plot is not very different from before, neither are the gruesome killings. While it is interesting to …
Best of Raw vol.1
I bought Best of Raw vol.1 on VHS a couple years ago. And I have to say this is a great video. It shows you the early days of WWF RAW. And yes this takes it back to the days when it was WWF and not WWE. I really like …
Mr. and Mrs. Smith
I love movies! Especially movies about spies! They’re so action packed, so cool and the spies themselves are so hot! Well most of them are. That was my first impression when I saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith’s trailer for the first time. I was totally blown away!
The plot is …

Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle
“Charlie’s Angels Full Throttle” was supposed to be the sequel to the previous Charlie’s Angles movie “Charlie’s Angels” which was released in the year 2000. I found I liked the sequel much less than I liked the previous movie for very many reasons. One of those reasons was that …

Funny Games movie
A highly provocative film by the german controversial filmmaker Michael Haneke. This director keeps shocking the audience with his unpredictable narratives, which aren’t necessarily showing much of violence, but in a way Haneke challenges the viewers and shows no compassion for his characters. In Funny Games we see two …
Zodiac (R, 2007) movie
I will admit that this movie seemed a little slow to me at first. I had seen the other Zodiac movie (slightly better than a B movie) and this one was much more thorough. Jake Gyllenhaal provided a very believable performance. But overall, I …
Up In The Air Movie
I thought this movie was going to be really exciting since Anna Kendrick and George Clooney was here, the movie all about George Clooney being “alone” and “isolated” because of this job that requires him to fly all around the country, he then meets Vera Farmiga who’s just as …

Fool’s Gold
I think the collaboration between Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson is kind of cool and awesome, and in this movie, Fool’s Gold they collaborated once more in this title, Fool’s Gold. If you have forgotten the other movie which they have starred together, it would be ‘How to Lose …

Cocktail
“Cocktail” helped the actor Tom Cruise to become more famous in Hollywood; however I don’t believe that this is his best film from his initial stages. If I had to chose between “Cocktail”, “Top Gun” and “Risky Business”, I prefer to watch “Top Gun” and putting “Cocktail” the least movie …
Leatherheads movie
George Clooney, Rennee Zellwegger play in this movie. It’s basically about football a long time ago. It was an entertaining movie. Other than that it was just a movie. If you are looking for a good story then I don’t recommend leatherheads. If you are just looking for a …
Movie The Kingdom
It is a true pity that the movies “The Kingdom” and “Rendition” were released in the same year. I feel that these are both true exceptional movies with a great message to send across to humanity; however they will end up being compared with each other.
These movies tackle …
Flushed Away
I enjoyed this movie for its settings more than anything else. It is an interesting concept to view the surface world above as �up there�, and to have an entire city, Ratopolis, below, loosely resembling London. The film primarily reminded me of Romancing the Stone. The female lead, Rita, …
Liberty Heights movie
I tend to like a lot of films, especially drama films which have a historical setting. These films do not necessarily have to be based on a factual story either, and they do not have to be set in the far history like medieval times. This is what attracted …
Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh Movie
It was because of Candyman why I avoided taking a shower for a week as a kid. I was afraid to be alone in the bathroom, much less pass by a mirror where I knew he would jump out and get me. I really liked the first movie and I …

Made of Honor
Another new released movie, Made of Honor is one of the best movies that I’ve watched. I’m not bluffing alright. I could see the same lines of this movie in a novel and I would still enjoy reading it the same.
It stars my hunky favorite actor, whom …
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 …
