Yes, this is a remake of the 1985 film of the same name but this time they did it in 3D. If you like comedy, horror and vampires all jumping off the screen in your face then you should enjoy this offering. It follows the original movie fairly closely but offers a few twists that [...]
Colombiana is the name of a beautiful lily. It is also the calling card of an equally beautiful but deadly hit woman, Cataleya Restrepo (Amandla Stenberg). This particular calling card gets a lot of use as the dead bodies keep piling up in this action packed movie. It is a movie of revenge sparked by [...]
The Help is billed as a comedy/drama and to be truthful, it is. I found it to be more drama than comedy although there were some high spirited moments to be sure. You may never eat a chocolate pie again! The actors who embody the “help” are marvelous in their character and determination to fight [...]
This concept is rather confusing and it could only get worse if it were John Wayne & Pee Wee Herman. Cowboys and six shooters verses Aliens and lasers? No chance for the old west even with the Indians helping them. But then again, this is the movies. It turns out that it is an interesting storyline with mystery [...]
If someone or something is said to have “gone out in style” that phrase would be considered a high compliment. The latest and final installment of the Harry Potter series is now history after Deathly Hallows: Part 2 fades from the big screen. I am here to tell you that it certainly did indeed “go out in [...]
This is a 2004 TV movie that brings you right back to the 1950s with all of that mutant bug nonsense and, in fact, some of those very bugs appear in this movie. You may recall the giant ants, giant praying mantis, giant spider and just about any other giant bug you can think of. [...]
Vampires do indeed suck and some folks might think that this spoof of such movies sucks more! I do not happen to be among them. If you are familiar with this film genre you are much more likely to find the scenes and one liners funny. I sure did and, as is the case when I [...]
Do you want to have some fun in the heat of the summer? If so, why don’t you spend two and one half hours being entertained in a big way by the fighting robots? The Autobots and their arch enemy the Decepticons are at it again in this final series of the franchise. The first portion [...]
If you mention a collaboration between J. J. Abrams (Fringe, Star Trek, Cloverfield, Lost, etc.) and Steven Spielberg (War of the Worlds, Saving Pvt. Ryan, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones, Jaws, ET and so many more) you could bet your last dollar that I would be in the audience. And so I was! This story is [...]
This romantic comedy was written and directed by Woody Allen and, as you might expect, has his influence all over it. In my opinion, this is a very good thing indeed. I really enjoyed this unusual story replete with its nostalgia and love of Paris, France. What is quirky about the storyline is the fact [...]
