sCapote-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After being widely praised by critics, I was a bit reserved about seeing this movie. I knew the acting would be wonderful, as Philip Seymour Hoffman is a great actor, but what I was skeptical about was the actual movie. After a view I think all of my reservations about the movie had come true. I found no fault with any of ( Read more... )

Reign Over Me~~~~~~

It’s rare that when I’m seeing one movie and see a preview for another that I actually want to leave the theater and go see the movie in the previews. However it happened in Pursuit of Happyness, I saw the preview for Reign Over Me and wanted to see it instead of Pursuit. So I waited, after the first delay of Reign, I was angry, ( Read more... )

Ran~~~~~

I can’t say that I’ve ever read or seen King Lear which Ran is based off of but I can attest to its similarities to Shakespeare’s work. Ran is a Japanese/samurai version of the classic work King Lear. It is an amazing movie, with a great story, great character developing, amazing costumes and sets and absolutely gorgeous locations. The ( Read more... )

300~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I find it hard to start this review and for that matter throughout the review without using insane amounts of profanity. This movie makes you feel like a man, a cursing killing blood thirsty man. The story is based of the historic Battle of Thermopylae, where the 300* Spartans fought the entire Persian army. It’s a great story to ( Read more... )

On pure, chance I saw The Astronaut Farmer with my dad.  You know it wasn’t too bad.

The Astronaut Farmer~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At a first glance this movie is nothing more then an utter piece of crap. But on a viewing it turns out to be a decent movie. The story revolves around Farmer (Billy Bob Thornton) who, when he was training for an ( Read more... )

Continuing with my Nicolas Cage movie montage, I saw Ghost Rider not once but twice this weekend. Now, I am a little bias in my review but only because I love Cage. With that said here ya go.

Attention: 15 year old Kidnapped, suspects appear to be very vulgar and violent drug dealers. Last seen in California selling drugs and partying.  We have evidence to suspect that the culprit is Johnny Truelove (some have said he has taken his identity from Jesse James Hollywood).

Primeval~~~~~~~~~

Let me start out this by saying that the only reason I went to this movie was for a friend. I had no desire to see it. Therefore do not judge me on this choice of movie. Anyways on we go.

When this movie came out I thought to myself, great another crappy R-rated horror movie for little kids to sneak into to. I still think that. ( Read more... )

Children of Men~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The youngest person in the world has just died; the world is in completely chaos. Britain is the only country left standing, oh and I forgot, women can’t have babies. Sound like the distant future, well it might not be too distant. Welcome to Children of Men. This movie is a high paced powerhouse that ( Read more... )

Déjà vu~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is it a random feeling? Is it a glitch in the matrix? All I know was it was a good movie. An agent for the ___ is investigating an explosion of a ferry in New Orleans, figures out that it wasn’t an accident, it was a terrorist act. Shortly after the “accident” Denzel is asked to join a secret ( Read more... )
