Space Buddies is the third film featuring Disney’s irresistible talking puppies, all an indirect offshoot of the original 1997 Air Bud, featuring a Golden Retriever named Buddy who could play basketball. Space Buddies follows the five puppies, Rosebud, Buddha, Mudbud and B-Dawg – each of whom have distinct personalities as, following series of unfortunate occurrences, they [...]

My quick take on Fast & Furious (2009 film) which stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster: Eight years ago, The Fast and the Furious highlighted the subculture of urban street racing, and two young, relatively unknown male actors burst on the scene as the movie became a surprise summer hit. Since then, [...]

Just released today, Monsters vs. Aliens is a computer-animated 3-D feature film from DreamWorks Animation and Paramount Pictures. It is the first computer animated movie to be directly produced in a stereoscopic 3-D format (i.e. instead of converting the film into 3-D after completion). So what’s it all about?

Friday the 13th Movie (2009) Review

14. March 2009

The Friday The 13th movie series with the hockey-mask wearing JASON is back! As I expected though, this latest entry is the kind of cookie-cutter horror flick that doesn’t really offer much, but the little it does deliver holds together well enough to actually entertain. Directed by Marcus Nispel (who also directed “Pathfinder”), the movie revels [...]

Tyler Perry is back in drag for yet another movie! This time, it’s “Madea Goes To Jail”, which was released as a movie this year, and which is based on a Tyler Perry-written play of the same name. This time around, Perry’s well-known character “Madea Simmons” goes to jail for her uncontrollable anger management problems. As [...]

Rocknrolla Movie Overview

1. March 2009

Rocknrolla is a British crime film that was released in 2008. For me, it marks a true return to form for writer/director Guy Ritchie (who also did “Snatch” and “Two Smoking Barrels”). Funnily, it has a lot in common with “Snatch” – multi-layered plot and larger than life characters who rapidly descend into increasingly violent [...]
