Blockbuster Online
Can I start by saying “Waste of money.”
I can sum up the review in that one sentence, but let me be more specific.
For several months I was subscribed to Blockbuster online and can tell you that it was a terrible service.
Here’s why:
Out of Order. I am a devoted movie …
Black or White (drama movie)
For me the actor Kevin Costner’s name has become synonymous with watching certain kinds of films. Thus I consider him one of the more “serious” popular actors. Therefore, I found it interesting an refreshing to see that he was doing something a little different when I saw the trailer for …
Exiled (2007)
I find the movie Exiled pretty similar to one particular movie like a gangster wanting to be good type of story. Exiled is something like that, but the difference is that the setting of this movie is in Macau.
Anthony Wong and Francis Ng star and they sort of like …

In 1940 Loew’s, a production company that ceased operation in the mid 1950s released the black and white feature “Shop Around the Corner” in English lasting 99 minutes.

For about three years or so the film “Alexander” was one of my favourite movies until I realised recently that it might not necessarily have been because it was a good movie. However, there is a good chance that I liked it because three of my celebrity crushes at …
Movie: Night of the Comet
I ended up watching a movie last night that I haven’t seen in years; Night of the Comet.

Cadillac Records (R, 2008)
After hearing the hype about Beyonce being in this movie, I can’t say that I was itching to go see it. With all due respect to Beyonce, her acting abilities have left a little to be desired. In any event, I was surprised to realize that …
Employee Of The Month
I watched this movie, Employee Of The Month the other night on DVD and it was super funny and top hilarious, I give it a 10, no doubt. I know that the jokes are pretty slapstick and that the babe factor is none other than Jessica Simpson, nevertheless I …

Transporter 3
I must say that the —˜Transporter’ films are my favourite Jason Statham’s movies together with ‘The Bank Job’. I believe that with ‘Transporter 3′ the director, Olivier Megaton and writers, Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen managed to put together the right ingredients that made this movie series so …

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
When I rented the movie “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor” I figured it wouldn’t be as good as the first two Mummy movies made before it (The Mummy and The Mummy Returns). I was right.
If this had been made as a stand-alone movie, perhaps a martial arts …
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 …

Rowan Atkinson is one of the best comic actors of our time. I had very high hopes for “Bean The Ultimate Disaster”. I was hoping to watch another unique movie were I couldn’t stop laughing from beginning till the end. I was very disappointed with this movie, …
Movie Help Me Help You
Help Me Help You with Ted Danson.
I never thought very highly of Ted Danson’s acting on TV, but he has shown me a more effective portrayal in this series. I think that the difference is the similarity to his Cheers days in which he …
Pretty Persuasion (R, 2005)

The Love Guru, romantic comedy film by Marco Schnabel
There comes a point in your life where you want to watch a movie that is real bad, but one of those movies that might be the worst out of the bunch is Mike Myer’s film, The Love Guru. Is this movie real that bad or is there something …
District 9 movie
Sci-fi movies for me are so formulaic. I watch one sci-fi movie, I can say that I have watched almost 90% of all the sci-fi flicks that were released in the past years because of it. Sci-fi movies with aliens are more predictable and repetitive. Aliens terrorize the human …
Clean Slate (movie)
I have to admit, outside of Wayne�s World and Wayne�s World 2, I haven�t seen many Dana Carvey movies. But, after watching his film, Clean Slate, I think I�m going to have to see more.
Granted, Carvey wasn�t overly convincing as a private investigator. He just didn�t seem tough enough, …

The movie War starring Jason Statham and Jet Li is an action packed thriller that is very intense. I just watched this movie recently and found it to be very worthwild. There are so many twists and turns that it will keep you on the edge of your seat. …
The Nun’s Story: A Film by Fred Zinnemann (1959)
I have heard this film is one of Audrey Hepburn’s acclaimed performances. I personally believe it’s also the most critically-absorbing film in the entire Audrey Hepburn —˜genre’. The austere screenplay was very consistent to the point that it almost felt like watching an art film. The …
