Ninja Assassin

There are some movies which you don’t need to see the trailer to want to watch.  This is one of them ~at least for me.  I guess it’s just my fascination with Ninjas ~ these unfathomable and almost mystical killing machines and my movie instinct that assured me it was going to be very entertaining [...]

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Hearing that this movie has already been circulating before it was even shown, didn’t stop me from making sure I watched it the first day it premiers on cinema.  Truly the only way to appreciate this film was to view it on the Big Screen.  It’s action packed and entertaining from start to finish.  Hugh was outstanding and everything [...]

The Day the Earth Stood Still

Finally I was able to watch a movie last weekend after what seems like a long respite from my weekly dose of motion picture extravaganza.  It has been mentioned over and over again that this movie is from a remake of the 1951 classic sci-fi flick.  Well that was not my generation and so I [...]
