How to Steal a Million (1966)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060522/ This film was a delight. Now, don’t bother watching it if you don’t find films of the 60s endearing and sweet and fun – you will not enjoy this film. However, for those like me who love the films of this era, HOW TO STEAL A MILLION was a fun vacation from the hustle and bustle of some of todays cinematic efforts. A classic robbery film, MILLION doesn’t have blood, swearing or ladies running around in … Read entire article »

Rachel Getting Married

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1084950/ Directed by Jonathan Demme When I watched Rachel Getting Married the first time, it ran over me like water. It wasn’t that I didn’t like it, it was just a little more than I thought it was going to be and, frankly, it bummed me out a bit. I thought I was in for a comedy. Something along the lines of Father of the Bride that would have me giggling, laughing, and a little misty at … Read entire article »

Waiting (2005) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0348333/ Directed by Rob McKittrick Slipping into the realm of AMERICAN PIE and the many knock offs it spawned, WAITING turned out to be a fun little no brainer comedy with lots of bawdy, beer party humor.

Pete’s Dragon

PETE’S DRAGON (1977) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076538/ Directed by Don Chaffey I was a mere eight year old when PETE’S DRAGON first came out in 1977. I remember going to see it with my mother not really knowing what the heck I was about to see. I hear the songs now and I get misty eyed. It really was a huge hit for me when I was a kid. My parents really helped to foster my love of films by taking … Read entire article »

The Machine Girl and Machine Girl Lite

Machine Girl (2008) -Kataude mashin gâru- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1050160/ Machine Girl Lite (2009) -The Hajirai Machine Girl- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1319567/ Remember The Road Runner cartoon? Of course you do. Well, MACHINE GIRL and MACHINE GIRL LITE are the live action, Japanese action, deadly schoolgirl versions of the same. These films are candy for the fans of over the top, cartoon style gore and violence. It’s so damn silly that the violence becomes second to the pure comedy goodness of the absolutely silly plot … Read entire article »

ZOMBIELAND (2009) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1156398/ Directed by Ruben Fleischer Rhett Reese (written by) & Paul Wernick (written by) Those of you who know me know that I can sometimes go off on a rant about crap movies having no problem getting a wide, theatrical release while good films crawl around under cover of “Mom and Pop”, small screen venues or after hours purgatory…if the see the light of day at all.

What’s Up, Tiger Lily?

What’s Up, Tiger Lily?  1966 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061177/ Woody Allen Senkichi Taniguchi This film is just a silly, goofy, and fun no brainer and it’s worth every bit of your time. Woody Allen debuts by taking the Japanese action film “International Secret Police: Key of Keys”, stripping out all the dialogue, and re-writing the spy thriller so that it revolves around…wait for it…a egg salad recipe. The original film was made in 1965, so it has a look of the time … Read entire article »
