118 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

"Frankie and Johnny" has its roots in a stage play and as is usually the case when a play gets adapted into a movie it's a wordy affair, a movie which revolves around characters and a lot of dialogue. But at the same time "Fr...

The Lion King (1994)

89 mins     Adventure , Animation, Drama      

I've often mentioned how I prefer the old Walt Disney animations over modern animations because to me those old animations such as "Bambi" had a skill about them which even as a movie fan you could appreciate. You also get a ...

Mousehunt (1997)

94 mins     Comedy      

"Great fun for all the family!" - The Daily Mail, "Laugh-a-minute mayhem." - Daily Star are just two of the quotes which adorn the back of the "Mousehunt" case and whilst "Mousehunt" maybe a fun movie with a few laughs but it...

At First Sight (1999)

128 mins     Drama, Romance      

Before sitting down to watch "At First Sight" I was unfortunate enough to read some reviews which basically slapped it down for being overly romantic mush. And in a way those reviewers were sort of right as "At First Sight" i...

Titan A.E. (2000)

Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! (2004)

95 mins     Comedy, Romance      

The best thing about "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!" it reminded me of the love triangle romantic comedies which Doris Day once starred in. In fact if this had been made 40 years earlier it would probably have starred Doris D...

The Producers (2005)

134 mins     Comedy, Musical      

Someone once said to me the reason I wasn't impressed with Mel Brooks' "The Producers" was because it was old with old actors which I laughed at as they obviously didn't know me and my preference for old cinema. Now having fi...

The Nutcracker in 3D (2010)

110 mins     Action , Family, Fantasy      

What the frickedy frack was that. I am sorry but I am dumb struck by "The Nutcracker in 3D" an utter cacophony which kind of reminded me of the musical which appears in "The Producers". From a musical number which features Ei...

Mirror Mirror: The Untold Adventures of Snow White (2012)

106 mins     Adventure , Comedy, Drama      

Let me tell you how I see "Mirror Mirror" it is a fantasy fairytale, which twists things into a new adventure rather than a traditional one. It has the a mix of style which reminds me a little of Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonder...
