Lars Von Trier is a spectacular film-maker for many reasons-his meaningful, charismatic, dark and devouring style, but what really makes his movies memorable is the fact how despairing and the amount of negative feelings that Melancholia for instance arouses with me. I am not stating that …

You’ll be hearing sounds often in this film. The action is packed into nearly every partof this movie. Remember the sword fight between Depp and Bloom early in the first film. I found that to be the highlight of the fight scenes.You think I?m exaggerating? Not even close. Just …

The fifth episode of the first season of Stargate SG-1 was called “The First Commandment”. Frankly, it’s not a big favorite of mine, though it has some fun moments to it.
Basically, the episode is about an SG team leader gone bad. He starts believing he’s a god. …

I have always thought Will Ferrell was a funny talented actor. His movies are among the best out there. Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, was once again a funny film. However, it definitely wasn’t his best effort.
What I believe was basically a spoof of Days of Thunder, …

I am reviewing the movie, Air Force One, starring Harrison Ford. Air Force one is, of course, the plane that the president uses to fly to places. Harrison Ford plays the President of the United States in this movie. The subject of terrorists is evident in his …

Although this movie was found to be corny and unhorrifyingly unsuspenseful by some members of my family, I found this too scary and I was really scared watching this movie. This movie had come out in 2007 but it was only shown last year in our country and I …

This movie has some great actors in it, including Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones, but it’s not a movie I’d sit and watch over and over again. It’s a great Cinderella type movie, but it’s just not my favorite of all time chick flick. This movie feels like the …

After Hades (Lord of the Underworld) saw into the furure through the use of the three witches, and saw that Zues’ son Hercules would be his unltimate downfall, he made plans to the Hercules kidnapped, made human and kill the child. Hades had his henchmen perform the duty and …

To be quite honest, I was expecting a lot more from Neil Marshall than this. After the likes of “Dog Soldiers” and “The Descent”, you’d have thought he’d have something more imaginative to offer up than this pretty weak and often downright silly science fiction yarn that rarely impresses …

Blood Diamond (2006)is an drama film br director edward zwick and is rated R for strong violence and language.
Blood Diamond puts you in the middle of the civil war in 1999 Sierra Leone. The story follows a ex-mercenary turned diamond smuggler (Leonardo DiCaprio) who hears in jail of …

Almost to be filed under the category of guilty pleasure is the 2005 movie “Bewitched” featuring Nicole Kidman, except that it wasn’t that much of a pleasure. I grew up watching the television show starring Elizabeth Montgomery and was curious about how the film version might be. Typically I …

This is one of the most hilarious movies that Ashton Kutcher has starred in. This hilarious, romance has to do with a very young couple getting married and the brides family not agreeing with it at all. It puts alot of strain on the beginning of the …

This movie was actually pretty good. Most of the main characters managed to capture the essence of the lives they were supposed to play, but some did not. Mos Def played Chuck Berry and did an outstanding job portraying one of the pioneers of what we now know as …

Shawshank Redemption is a movie set in the 1940’s. I first saw Shawshank Redemption some 10 years ago and it quickly became one of my favorites. I watch it every time that I see it on television and I own the DVD to it. This story has one of …

A twisted story about two fallen angels who want back into heaven, but their method of their return will make the history that has been solidified over the years seem pointless. In order to stop their campaign, a host of both angels and mortals are teamed together to bring …

When I was a kid growing up in the 80s, one of the people I would sneak out of bed late at night to watch was Elvira, Mistress of the Dark (Cassandra Edwards). The so-called ‘horror’ films she showed were usually terrible. But, she made things entertaining.
I knew she …

I remember watching the movie 1941 quite a few years ago and thinking it was a very funny film. That’s why, when I had the opportunity to load it on our Netflix player and watch it this weekend, I did.
I’m thinking my tastes in comedies has changed over the …

I am reviewing The Case of the Violent Suitor, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

One of my favorite movies of all times has to be “My Cousin Vinny.” For anyone who has not seen this movie since it came out in 1992, give it a try. You will find yourself laughing through most of the movie.
The first thing that drew me …

The Painted Veilis one of those movies that pull son your heart and evokes emotions you thought dead. It’s a story of two lovers, married for the wrong reasons, end up in the middle of a cholera epidemic in China. Somehow, in themidst of tradgedy and pain, the must …

I am afraid that I could not help comparing this movie all the way through to Nine and a Half Weeks, the 1987 erotic movie starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger. Now that is an erotic movie and I (and my friends at the time too!) can totally …

I just watch the movie and I must say I was very very disappointed with the film. It lacked everything from the action to the story. Will tell you how bad this movie was, so that you do not waste your time and money.
The movie begins with Thoorop a …

One of my guilty pleasures is watching some of the more modern Lifetime movies, especially if I think that they have fairly interesting plots and fairly tolerable acting. These can be a little hard to find especially in a sea of low budget movies that Lifetime seems to bring. …

Sid and Nancy with Gary Oldmann and Chloe Webb.
Ever hear of the axiom, If you have nothing good to say, then it is best to say nothing?” Well this biography of the crash and burn life of Sid Vicious from the group Sex Pistols …

I had always liked Nicolas Cage, in fact, he has always been my #1 favorite actor of all times and he still is right now, but when I saw the trailer for this movie I had let out a scoff and a giggle, I never thought he would go …

I recently bought the movie “Must Love Dogs” from Big Lots for only three dollars and I really thought it was cute. I had never seen it before and my thought was that for only three dollars if it was bad than I could just throw it away. …

With two small girls in the house, it is inevitable that our movie selections revolve around animations that the kids can watch. Moana, the Disney animation movie about a little girl that gets “chosen” by the ocean to save their tribe is such a stunning movie that I don’t even …

The question I asked myself while watching Franklyn on blu-ray was how do these four stories come together? The back of the case suggests that it all comes together at some point but I am not seeing it. Does Franklyn have bull shit written all over it or is …

Nosferatu is such a cool, classic movie. We are talking black and white, 1929, horror at its best. Nosteratu, if you don’t know, is a vampire. He’s a Dracula, but not Dracula. Nosferatu is a silent film and what is so very cool about it is the looks, the …

A fantasy movie about a baby that was kidnapped by an evil queen in order to destroy what ever hopes other may have of the prophecy being fulfilled. It would seem that the queen wants her reign to continue for years to come and with this child’s destiny looming …

I recommend everyone to watch this, Young At Heart. This is something that I would recommend any senior citizen to watch. As we grow old, we become more sensitive and prone to feelings that we might not succumb to should we are young.
This movie is about a group …

Since my younger days I have always been Jacky Chan’s fan and enjoy all his shows which always impress me. Whether the dialogue is in Cantonese, Mandarin or English, I will still enjoy watching and will not get tired of his movies.. He is always the top of my …

I am quite a fan of all this animation movies, they always entertain me and my girlfriend, they are funny, technically splendid, they usually have a good plot, and they are almost never superficial or boring.
Well i didn’t enjoy this one at all.
The impression i had is this:
They did …

This is one of those few horror movies that come out and are not only freaky and disgusting, but hilarious. I think it’s obvious that the director wanted it to be both. Basically you have a bar full of goofy misfits (I swear if you’ve ever been in …

I was a little worried about this movie because when biopics are made about famous people, it’s sometimes really hard to hire the right actors to do these kinds of roles. The actor must not only look like the artist, but must also embody the little nuances that …

From 1974, Where Have All the People Gone is a movie I’ve remembered well from its original airing on television. Back in the day, this was actually one of those movies that showed up late night all the time. Peter Graves stars as Steven Anders, the father …

Although most of the setting of this movie takes place on a plane it was still interesting to watch. I enjoyed watching the whole movie. It’s about a stranger who comes up to this lady and threatens her about her father and wants her to kill someone. Basically if …

Stephen King movies are usually hit or miss. Some are great, others are kind of dumb.
The Mist falls into the former more than the latter. But, it still is flawed.
The great thing about The Mist is the fact you really never know what is going on until the very …

This is one of my most love animation movies. I saw this film when I was still a child and I enjoyed watching it so much. This movie made my imagination work and also left me a lot of lessons. Although 3D animation was not yet that advance at …

“Miracle on 34th Street,” the John Hughes production with Richard Attenborough, contains the same inspirational storyline as the original movie and continues to entertain drama lovers today. The remake was filmed in 1995, casting famous actors and actresses, such as Elizabeth Perkins, Dylan McDermott, and Mara Wilson. Attenborough portrayed …

I’ve always liked The Incredible Mr. Limpet from the time I first saw it as a child. It’s just a delightful motion picture that is clever and wonderful to watch. Below are a few thoughts on this DVD, now that I happily have it as part of …

This movie to be perfect. Very appropriate as a diversified film dramatic romantic comedy that is displayed. Selection of shutting location also quite fun. Not many places, but the entire core stories can delivery clearly. The players also supported by costumes that show their character, very strong and clearly …

I first watched this movie was on dvd with my little cousins. It was quite interesting with the nice dancing and singing. The storyline was pretty good. One thing I didn’t really understand was how Mumble, the main penguin went back his own specific colony of penguins, but I …

One fairly interesting movie that I watched in the early part of 2012 was the movie Bridesmaids. It starred a quite a few of Saturday Night Live’s most recent cast including one of my favourites who has been in other movies that I like, Maya Rudolf. I’m not the …

For what it is, A Smoky Mountain Christmas is a decent holiday movie. Dolly Parton stars as a successful country singer (not a big stretch here) who takes off for the mountains for some peace and relaxation.
In the smoky mountains, Lorna Davis (Parton) discovers a group of children …

When I rented the movie “The Changeling”, I did so because it was directed by Clint Eastwood, and I really enjoy the movies he directs. The subject matter, a mother whose young son disappears, is gut-wrenching, so I didn’t expect a light or enjoyable experience. It was based on …

A lovely little horror and suspense film is The Brood. What is The Brood? Well, the brood turns out to be a bunch of tiny people who go around murdering every one that they think has committed some sort of injustice towards their mother. This is a pretty simple …

Borderland is a bad movie, plain and simple. I can usually find some redeeming qualities in a movie, but this isn’t one of them. I think the real problem is that it was released as one of the films in the After Dark Horror Fest, but it isn’t a …
