A fun romantic comedy, where a computer geek falls for the head-hunter that drags him to NYC. Completely predictable, yet fun, entertaining, with beautiful New York City background scenery. Yet there isn’t a lot of notable things to say about this movie. Justin Timberlake takes his shirt off a lot, and shows his ass. He’s… Read More »
The sequel to the remake of Clash of the Titans. It basically sucks…whatever you personally say you don’t like to suck. The Greek gods in this movie are either old or out of shape. Who wants to see a Greek god story where the gods don’t even look as good as the humans they are… Read More »

I don’t think anyone really needs a plot breakdown for a movie called Treasure Island. This reincarnation is pathetic. I gave it a try mainly cause Donald Sutherland is listed in the credits, who most people would consider an excellent actor. But he has only a brief cameo in this turd of a film. It… Read More »
Roll several Jules Verne novel concepts into a single modern day plot, make it elementary level and G-rated, and you have The Mysterious Island. The movie is juvenile and ridiculously unbelievable even for a kids fantasy show. The images, like the fake jungle, are pristine, so it’s pretty and colourful to look at, and entertaining… Read More »
For the younger crowd, or the people not paying attention, this is a movie remake of the 80’s pop TV series that kicked off Johnny Depp‘s career. The original TV series was a serial “drama” of young looking cops that infiltrate schools. This is an offbeat comedy based on the same plot, including a cameo… Read More »
Ridley Scott did right by Alien fans with this prequel. If you’ve seen the Alien movies and enjoyed them, you will certainly appreciate this. Even if you haven’t seen the others, the movie is written like a good novel in a series, where it can be read out of sequence and still enjoyed on it’s… Read More »
The Smurfs movie brought back childhood memories, and was fun to watch. If you don’t know what the Smurfs are, or didn’t like them as a child, you won’t appreciate this movie on any level. But they do briefly explain Smurf history in the show, in story terms. It’s extremely well done animation wise, good… Read More »
If a movie could be compared to a meal, this one would be a plate of candy floss with a glass of honey, and maybe a bowl of sugar for dessert. Yes, The Good Witch’s Family is icky sticky sweet. Made for TV, it’s a cross between an old Disney movie and an after-school special,… Read More »
A light hearted low budget movie about an out of work loveable loser that has no goals in life. His one talent is for having a big wang. So his friends encourage him to become an escort. There is very little in the way of eye candy in this rump, male or female, which is… Read More »
