What a year it has been. Not for criticasm.com perse but for the entire world. We are talking about strikes, crisis, falls of complete governments, the coming of 3D, the world of tablets and many many more things. Looking at the post count it has not been an impressive year, but this does not mean [...]

One of the big contenders for the Oscar Awards, which will air tomorrow, is THE SOCIAL NETWORK by David Fincher. Some say it is just your average film others say it is the best movie of 2010. So should it get any awards?

AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER as the title should be, is the latest big project of M. Night Shyamalan. For those familiar with the lore, know it has potential, but did Shyamalan harness it?

INCEPTION is one of those rare movies you have to see to realise how good it really is. It has been praised so much that it currently holds number 4 of the iMDB Top 250 with a 9.1. So if you are reading this and haven’t seen it yet, tell me why have you not?

Jerry Buckheimer and crew have been very busy. After the impressive PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN series, he had some fun with the PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME and now he has revived another Disney (short) story, which perhaps can take on that other wizard kid. THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE tells the story of Merlin’s [...]

ECLIPSE is the 3rd installment in the Twilight Saga with the lovable pale vampire and the hotty werewolf. Does it show any form of improvement, or are you in for another annoying ride when your misses wants to see this.

Yes I know I am stating the obvious, because the movie is called THE KARATE KID, but the ass whooping that goes on in this remake of a classic, is based on Kung Fu and not Karate. so does this effect the story?

When summer began we were treated with many great movies. One of them being IRON MAN 2, the sequel to 2008 surprise hit. For me however it was no surprise it would please me, since I am a Downey fan. Only this time I would be seeing him in a returning role for the very [...]

Most of you will probably not know “Kiss the Girl” from Peter André, but it was one of the theme songs from Disney’s THE LITTLE MERMAID and for a long time one of my favourite songs. Ah, the good old days when we were young and in love. However we are not talking about this [...]

When Lars von Trier took his seat at the press conference following the première of his latest flick ANTICHRIST at last years Cannes Film Festival an aggrieved British journalist famously demanded that the notorious Danish director explain and justify why he made this movie. Although it is not unusual for clueless journalists to try and [...]

Couple of Weeks ago Milly Boele from the Netherlands disappeared. The last thing we knew is that she was talking with her mum on the phone when she hung up saying: “There is a man at the front door”. After this conversation nobody has heard or seen a thing about her. She just vanished…

I know it is a bit too late to write a little something about VALENTINE’S DAY, but I just have seen it and thought I would give you guys at least some insight on whether this movie is worth it or not. And perhaps you can still watch it with your other half on some [...]

In for something different? You sure? With a cast like Ewan McGregor, Jeff Bridges and George Clooney you still can watch something you are not expecting. Well with THE MEN WHO STARE AT GOATS you are in for one weird experience.

WHATEVER WORKS is a movie you probably never have heard of. You will not have seen and never will. And that actually makes me sad, because WHATEVER WORKS brings the viewer an entertaining way on how to live life and how to deal with everyday issues.

When Sneaky and myself wanted to see one of the early screenings of SHERLOCK HOLMES it seemed all seats were taken. Nothing new here of course, because early screenings are always sold out when it comes to “big” movies. But with this case we tried to get some seats that were reserved by others. The [...]

When a friend told me about AVATAR I told him I heard about it, but wasn’t planning on seeing it premiere day. Fortune however wanted me to see this movie and when I got off from work a little bit earlier, I decided to go and watch it. New movies are best seen on their [...]

Those of you who follow my Twitter will know that I watch more movies than I am able to write about (this is a silent hint to follow me). I still got some on the drawing board like Disney’s UP and Woody Allen’s WHATEVER WORKS, but my latest movie was so awful, I just had [...]

After THE LORD OF THE RINGS and KING KONG we haven’t seen much from Peter Jackson. But with DISTRICT 9 we get glimpse of what he is capable of when producing even the weirdest of stories. DISTRICT 9 really is that, a weird story with an even weirder ending. The movie is already released on [...]

Michael Jackon’s THIS IS IT shows the last couple of months before his demise. You get to see what he was planning to show all of us and what surprises he had stored for the fans. Besides fragments of his show, people whom he worked with are being interviewed as well. So is this really [...]

*TJING* or whatever that effect sounds like when our favorite X-Men pulls out his claws. This sound has become a thing my girlfriend apparently has the hots for, because when we watched this movie I told her about X-MEN 1 to 3. The next few days she just had to see her hairy friend Hugh [...]

Second in line is the great movie THE WATCHMEN. THE WATCHMEN is a movie based on a twelve-issue comic book series created by writer Alan Moore, artist Dave Gibbons, and colorist John Higgins. It has been published by DC Comics in 1986 and 1987, but I never knew this or heard a thing about it, [...]

Ok ok… some might have noticed updates are not happening as frequently as we are aiming with criticasm. But going to do short version of so me of the latest flicks I have seen. First up MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3D.

First things first; Yes this movie contains nudity and yes vulgar language can be found also. So no do not go to this movie with your stuck up girl or boyfriend, nor with your parents, in-laws or whatsoever. This is a movie to be seen with people who can appreciate dirty humor, nudity and whom [...]

Person A: It’s Friday lets go to the movies? Person B: Nah… don’t feel like it Person A: Hey tomorrow the Knicks game is on, wanna watch it at my place? Person B: Sorry, got some stuff I gotta do Person A: I managed to gather our old friends for a poker night! Person B: [...]

Wait just one darn minute before reading any further. Do you know the story of Hamlet; the deaths, the tragedy, the love and the revenge? And did you see any promotion material of this movie? If the first question is answered with ‘Yes’ and the second question with a ‘No’, then this movie might be [...]

THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL is a remake of the classic film, which dates back to 1951, only this time we get to see Keanu “Wooow” Reeves as the big bad alien, who tells us we are all doomed and are going to die. Was the original movie about the Cold War, the remake [...]

With MY BEST FRIEND’S GIRL actor / comedian Dane Cook gets another chance to star in a “big movie”. EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH was his first major role and we all know how that ended up. Now for those who do not know Dane Cook I would seriously suggest to go to YouTube first and [...]

BURN AFTER READING is one of those movies you only go see if you know or read about it. I cannot even recall seeing a poster or trailer about it. But when the brothers Coen do make something, I am always there to see it. They have already brought us great movies like THE BIG [...]

QUANTUM OF SOLACE is the next movie in the line of Bond movies. And if I stand correct it is the 22nd Bond movie for us all to enjoy. Dubbed as the most expensive Bond movie made with a great Bond girl who actually has some balls, I just had to go see it as [...]

Usually I watch cool movies with cool people, scary movies with scary people (ie. my girlfriend) and romantic movies well… also with my girlfriend. But this time I was forced to go watch the latest creation of Pixar & Disney with one of my friends (one of the cool people). Now I am not sure [...]
