If you are looking for action, adventure and car chases, avoid this movie. On the other hand, if you would like to view a film with top notch acting and a subject matter that will cause you to think, this just may be your cup of tea. Doubt is aptly named since the subject matter [...]
Alas, where to start? This wonderful movie brings you to the heights of joy and almost to the brink of sorrow. It is a wonderfully told story of one man’s peculiar life and all of the heart warming characters who help to make it up. Benjamin Button is played by Brad Pitt who is taken from birth [...]
I have been a fan of Star Trek since the days when Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock starred in the TV series. When they began making the movies I was thrilled to be able to see them on the big screen. I have seen each movie multible times and I enjoy them each time I view them. [...]
Jim Carrey stars as the Yes Man (Carl Allen). If you think of all the past movies in which you have seen Carrey and had a favorable impression of him, you will in all likelihood enjoy this one. He comes through once again with all of his mugging and goofiness and generates the laughs that [...]
I just kept thinking “where is this movie going”? That was at the beginning and towards the middle I was thinking the same thing. I had my theories but they turned out to be off the mark. This is a dark and moody drama and despite some lucky results for a few of the characters, I was not in [...]
This is a tale of the “olden days.” A tale of kings, sorcerers, monster warriors and brave men and women. It is a tale well told and enjoyable to watch. The monster warriors are called Krugs and they are a blood thirsty lot who exist solely to do the bidding of their creator, the evil [...]
OK, I’ll admit that I was around when the first “Earth” came out (or did I see it on TV?). Ah, who cares! In the intervening 57 years movies and special effects have come a long way indeed. Also, back then, it was the atomic bomb that had everyone concerned and now it is the [...]
Brad (Vince Vaughn) and girlfriend, Kate (Reese Witherspoon) both come from broken homes and they do not have much contact with their parents. Each Christmas they invent excuses not to visit in person but rather fulfill their obligations by sending presents. Their excuses always involve made up stories of helping the underprivileged around the world. [...]
The first thing that comes to mind after viewing this film is that it should have been rated “RG” instead of “R.” You know, “RG” for REALLY GORY! I must admit that it probably took a lot of imagination to think of all the ways the baddies were dispatched. Not only that, there was a [...]
We have to figure that we were off to a good start when we have Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman as headliners in this epic romantic adventure filmed in a country as intriguing and beautiful as Australia. The setting is just after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and were advancing toward the Aussies in the [...]
