1
Pulse (2006,  PG-13)
Pulse
Reasonably good Japanese remake about the world under attack from a computer virus. Could have been better but still worth a look if you're a Horror fan.
2
Chicken Run (2000,  G)
Chicken Run
Loved Chicken Run as a kid and still enjoy it today. Though I can't call myself a fan of Wallace & Gromit I did enjoy Chicken Run with plenty of good jokes and characters plus it is the perfect family flick.
3
Charlie's Angels (2000,  PG-13)
Charlie's Angels
Plenty of fun to be had with Charlie's Angels. Drew, Cameron & Lucy were all perfect for their parts and the storyline is full of action and comedy. Great film!
4
Marley & Me (2008,  PG)
Marley & Me
Yeah it was pretty good. Any dog lover like myself will really enjoy this movie and it's drama and comedy rolled into one Owen Wilson also did a great job as the lead.
5
Charlie's Angels - Full Throttle (2003,  PG-13)
Charlie's Angels - Full Throttle
Just as good as the first with more great action scenes thrown in with some comedy. Loved Bernie Mac as the new Bosley as well, and Demi Moore plays a good villian.
6
Jungle 2 Jungle (1997,  PG)
Jungle 2 Jungle
Funny comedy from the 90's I always liked and still do. Tim Allen and Martin Short are really funny together in this one and there's some good laughs.
7
Chapter 27 (2007,  R)
Chapter 27
Very interesting film with Jared Leto obviously stealing the show as the slightly crazy Mark Chapman. Bit boring here and there but Jared's acting made it worth watching.
8
The Pink Panther (2006,  PG)
The Pink Panther
Very funny and very entertaining! Steve Martin brings a real light to the film that wouldn't be there if he wasn't in it. Good storyline and characters and a good laugh as well :)
9
Swimfan (2002,  PG-13)
Swimfan
The perfect teen thriller in which Ben is stalked by new student Madison Bell. The acting is great with both Jesse Bradford and Erika Christensen as stand-outs. The storyline has many twists and turns that are great fun to watch and the characters are very likeable, even Madison who you want to hate and like at the same time because she is so intruguing. Gets very exciting near the end too which does make up for a slower start. I'd highly recommend this to Thriller fans.
10
Down to Earth (2001,  PG-13)
Down to Earth
Good comedy flick that had some great laughs with Chris Rock as a real stand-out as well as Wanda Skyes. Regina King is also great too. Worth watching for a good laugh.
11
Ghost World (2001,  R)
Ghost World
A quirky yet cool comedy that might be a little slow moving but it's a good look into Enid's world and how her character develops. Little odd but still a rather good film.
12
The Lion King (1994,  G)
The Lion King
Easily the best Disney film made and one of my favourite movies. It's the perfect family movie and I just loved it as a kid and still love it today :)
13
Step Up (2006,  PG-13)
Step Up
Easily one of the best dance films I've seen. Great music and even better dance moves! Tad predictable but still it works and it's a great feel-good movie :)
14
Step Up 2 the Streets (2008,  PG-13)
Step Up 2 the Streets
An impressive sequel despite not being as good as the first. Very cool dance moves and music once again and a good storyline so it made for a great sequel that lived up to its expectations.
15
Queen of the Damned (2002,  R)
Queen of the Damned
Pretty good vampire flick even though there are better ones out there. Aaliyah is a real stand-out and it's such a shame she's no longer with us because this proved she would have been a great actress.
16
The Lion King 2 - Simba's Pride (1998,  G)
The Lion King 2 - Simba's Pride
A very impressive sequel to the first Lion King film considering it was a straight to video/DVD release. Ovbiously it would be hard to beat the original which it didn't but still worth a look.
17
Prom Night (2008,  PG-13)
Prom Night
A reasonably good effort makes this a great Horror Slasher but beware there are many corny moments that will rattle your brain. Acting was pretty good with Brittany Snow as the lead and Johnathon Schaech as a very convinving killer. Storyline was also great if not slightly on the predictable side. It won't please everyone, and will in fact anger others at some rather stupid moments (who goes upstairs when a fire alarm is ringing, seriously?) but overall worth checking out.
18
The Retrievers (2001,  Unrated)
The Retrievers
Yeah that was pretty bad. Sure the puppies were cute but it was a bad storyline, characters and terrible acting. Only watch if you really wanna see cute Golden Retriever puppies.
19
Honey (2003,  PG-13)
Honey
Very enjoyable dance flick with Jessica Alba as a real stand-out. Great dance moves and a great storyline makes this my favourite dance movie and one I'd highly recommend.
20
Aquamarine (2006,  PG)
Aquamarine
Reasonably good teen flick but probably a but too 'girly' for me to really enjoy. I quite liked Sara Paxton and she's funny too, but yeah one too many squeeling girls for me.
21
Planet of the Apes (2001,  PG-13)
Planet of the Apes
Gotta love an action-packed monkey movie with plenty to keep you entertained :) Great storyline and characters plus a very shocking ending as well!
22
Batman Begins (2005,  PG-13)
Batman Begins
I saw this after seeing 'The Dark Night' and I gotta say it's just as impressive. Don't know why it took me so long to get into the Batman films but I think they are just great! Full of action!
23
College Road Trip (2008,  G)
College Road Trip
Pretty good comedy with Raven and Martin Lawrence doing a great job as a Father/Daughter duo. Little predictable but still worth watching.
24
What Happens in Vegas (2008,  PG-13)
What Happens in Vegas
Great comedy flick with plenty of good laughs and a good storyline as well. Ashton and Cameron are great together as well so I'd definitley recommend it if you're in need of a good comedy.
25
The Messengers (2007,  PG-13)
The Messengers
Reasonably good Horror film with some great scares and I also though Kristen Stewart was great in this. Ending didn't do it justice and the twist was predictable, but overall still a good film.
26
The Money Pit (1986,  PG)
The Money Pit
Reasonably good 80's comedy with a few good laughs thanks to Tom & Shelley who are also pretty good together. Overall nothing special but still worth a look.
27
Losing Isaiah (1995,  R)
Losing Isaiah
A very intruguing storyline and very well acted from both Jessica Lange and Halle Berry especially. Tad slow here and there but still a very good movie.
28
Hatchet (2006,  R)
Hatchet
Quite an entertaining yet very corny Slasher flick. Ending sucked but plenty of gory death scenes and Horror comedy thrown in to keep me entertained :)
29
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003,  R)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Much better second time 'round. This film probably kick-started the gory Horror films and remakes and lucky it did. Good storyline and characters and a freaky killer as well!
30
Underworld: The Rise of the Lycans (2009,  R)
Underworld: The Rise of the Lycans
Haven't seen the second, barely remember the first but totally loved this film! Great action, storyline and dark Horror mood made this a great movie to see at the cinemas. Can't wait to re-watch the first and see the second now :)
31
Underworld (2003,  R)
Underworld
Much better second time 'round. Still enjoyed the third one a bit better but now the trilogy is making more sense. Plenty of action and Horror moments to make it worth watching.
32
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006,  R)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
Easily the goriest Horror film I've seen but what a great prequel to the 2003 film. Very likeable characters (not the crazy family of course) and a sick and twisted family make this a must-see for Horror fans.
33
Hairspray (1988,  PG)
Hairspray
Sure it was never going to be as good as the 2006 version but for a film from the 80's it wasn't bad. No so much a musical but a Drama which was different but it was good to see the original.
34
The Ruins (2008,  R)
The Ruins
A very different yet brilliant Horror film. Never seen one like it which is why I really enjoyed it. You'll never look at a plant the same again :P I'd highly recommend Horror buffs to check it out.
35
Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008,  R)
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Pretty good comedy flick that was a little naughty in parts but very funny in others. Mila Kunis is also a total hottie :P Great comedy flick well worth checking out.
36
The Fog (2005,  PG-13)
The Fog
Reasonably good Horror flick that starts off well but sort of lacks near the end. Some impressive scares and moments as well. Overall still worth a look.
37
The Simpsons Movie (2007,  PG-13)
The Simpsons Movie
Sure it was funny and had some good laughs but it just seemed like a group of clips thrown together rather than a movie. Still worth watching but could've been better.
38
The Hot Chick (2002,  PG-13)
The Hot Chick
One of my favourite comedies and Rob Schnider's best work too. Plenty of good jokes and laughs plus Anna Faris is also really funny too. Well worth watching for some laughs!
39
Passenger 57 (1992,  R)
Passenger 57
Pretty good action flick. Wesley Snipes is impressive and always good in an action flim and Bruce Payne made for the perfect villian.
40
My Favorite Martian (1999,  PG)
My Favorite Martian
Very funny Disney flick with Christopher Lloyd playing the perfect martian. Plenty of good funny jokes and a good storyline make this one to watch.
41
Catwoman (2004,  PG-13)
Catwoman
Great action flick with Halle Berry playing the perfect Catwoman. Intriguing storyline and some very cool fight scenes make for a great movie.
42
The Rugrats Movie (1998,  G)
The Rugrats Movie
Massive Rugrats fan growing up so I was bound to love the movie and still do today. Great flick made from a TV Series and well worth watching for a reminder of how great the show was.
43
Rugrats in Paris - The Movie (2000,  G)
Rugrats in Paris - The Movie
Not as good as the original movie but still an impressive lead-up with a good storyline and plenty of funny moments. Good to see that Rugrats can still enlighten me after so many years.
44
Lady in the Water (2006,  PG-13)
Lady in the Water
Boring and downright weird. Sure Shylaman stands out as being different with his films but Lady In The Water pretty much just sucked.
45
The Amityville Horror (2005,  R)
The Amityville Horror
Very impressive Horror/Thriller with some great acting, especially from Ryan Reynolds. Good storyline and overall definitely worth a look.
46
Halloween (2007,  R)
Halloween
Much better than the original that's for sure. An updated classic for Horror fans of now. Totally loved it and most Horror fans would be sure to agree.
47
The Devil Wears Prada (2006,  PG-13)
The Devil Wears Prada
A very clever and witty drama/comedy with Meryl & Anne as stand-out actors. A good storyline and plenty to keep you interested, and definitely not just a chick flick.
48
Ghost Ship (2002,  R)
Ghost Ship
Totally loved this Horror flick. Whoever came up with the idea is very clever because the storyline is great and there is so many memorable scenes making it well worth checking out.
49
Degrassi High: School's Out (1991,  Unrated)
Degrassi High: School's Out
Good closure for the Degrassi High series. Touches upon some more serious issues than the TV Series did with some very dramatic results. Overall a pretty good TV movie.
50
Eight Legged Freaks (2002,  PG-13)
Eight Legged Freaks
Very similar to the comedy of 'Snakes On A Plane' because it's a Horror film but it's funny. Anyone that hates spiders would be in hell watching this, but I like spiders so I really enjoyed it :)
51
Asylum (2007,  R)
Asylum
Pretty good Horror film with good characters and storyline. Bit dark in places but overall left a good impact and is worth a look for fans of the genre.
52
Shrooms (2008,  Unrated)
Shrooms
An OK Horror film that started out pretty good but went downhill when it started to get confusing. Redeemd itself at the end but overall a bit messy in places.
53
Into the Wild (2007,  R)
Into the Wild
What a movie. Top-notch acting from Emile Hirsch and a very well adapted film of a true story. One of the best films I've seen and well worth watching.
54
Into the Blue (2005,  PG-13)
Into the Blue
Very cool action-packed flick with some great underwater scenes plus a good storyline and oh yeah Jessica Alba too :) Highly recommended.
55
Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl
Plenty of fun and adventure to be had here. A very enjoyable and funny movie with a stand-out cast and storyline that started off a great trilogy. One not to be missed :)
56
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Definitely an improvement on the first with more interesting characters and storyline, and what a cliffhanger ending too!
57
Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End (2007,  PG-13)
Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End
Just as impressive as the first two, especially the visuals :) Tad confusing here and there but overall a great way to end a great trilogy!
58
Monkey Trouble (1994,  PG)
Monkey Trouble
A funny kids flick with a cool monkey that's rather entertaining. Good storyline and some rather funny moments make it a good movie for the kids, and the big kids at heart like me :P
59
Joey (1997,  PG)
Joey
A good kids flick that I loved as a kid and still like it now. Nothing overally special but still worth watching because it has it's moments.
60
It Takes Two (1995,  PG)
It Takes Two
Another kiddy flick I grew up with and despite not being the biggest fan of those Olsen twins this is a pretty good movie with a good storyline but one that has been done many times before.
61
Alaska (1996,  PG)
Alaska
A goodfamily adenture flick with a very cute polar bear cub. Good storyline and great scenery made for a great film, plus I just loved seeing Alaska it's such a beautiful place.
62
The Lost Boys (1987,  R)
The Lost Boys
One of the few classic Horror films that I just love. Not a huge fan of vampire films but this is a great movie with a good storyline and characters. Highly recommend it to all Horror fans.
63
Richie Rich's Christmas Wish (1998,  G)
Richie Rich's Christmas Wish
No match for the actual Richie Rich movie and while it's an OK kids flick there are a few problems here and there plus some dodgy green-screen moments. Overall it's good but probably safe to give it a miss.
64
George of the Jungle (1997,  PG)
George of the Jungle
Very silly but still very funny and a movie I loved when I was a kid, and still enjoy today. Brendan Fraser is perfect for George as well.
65
Premonition (2007,  PG-13)
Premonition
A good, slightly confusing, Thriller that's for those who can manage to keep up with a movie that goes back and forward through time. Worth a look if you're a thriller fan.
66
See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989,  R)
See No Evil, Hear No Evil
Funny comedy with Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor as the perfect duo. Good storyline and plenty of laughs, and a very clever idea for a movie.
67
Cry Wolf (2005,  PG-13)
Cry Wolf
A clever Thriller with a twist you'll never see coming. Great actors and such a clever storyline, there isn't another film like it, and that's why I just loved it :)
68
Point Break (1991,  R)
Point Break
Reasonably good 90's Action flick with some good action scenes and some quality acting from Keanu & Patrick. Tad long but overall worth a look.
69
Underworld: Evolution (2006,  R)
Underworld: Evolution
Another impressive addition to the Underwrodl trilogy with some fast-paced action scenes and freaky villains. Better than the first but not as good as the third.
70
Beethoven (1992,  PG)
Beethoven
A classic film I loved as a kid that might have spawned one too many sequels but the first and second will always remain the best. Beethoven is also a loveable dog we all wanted at one stage :P
71
The Sitter (2007,  Unrated)
The Sitter
Reasonably good Horror/Thriller about a crazy babysitter that had it's moments but didn't have a strong enough ending. Overall it's still worth a look.
72
Buried Alive (2007,  Unrated)
Buried Alive
An entertaining yet corny B-Grade Horror film which never really had it's moment and took way too long to get to the good stuff.
73
WIthIN (The Cavern) (2006,  R)
WIthIN (The Cavern)
While it's nothing compared to 'The Descent' this was still a decent attempt at a Horror film with some good moments, but dodgy camera work and an odd ending made it fall short.
74
Ghost (1990,  R)
Ghost
An impressive early 90's Drama flick with a good storyline and some memorable scenes, plus Whoopi is an obvious stand-out. Well worth a look.
75
Decoys 2: Alien Seduction (2006,  R)
Decoys 2: Alien Seduction
Good sequel to the original with more of those hot blonde aliens. Little silly but of course it's a film not to be taken too seriously but one to be entertained by.
76
Rise: Blood Hunter (2007,  R)
Rise: Blood Hunter
Impressive vampire flick that got better as the film went on. Good death scenes and Lucy Lui was a good female lead. Vampire film fans should enjoy it.
77
Secret Window (2004,  PG-13)
Secret Window
A good suspense/thriller with a good twist (that I kinda saw coming) and a stand-out performance from Johnny Depp. Thriller fans will get a kick out of this.
78
I Think I Love My Wife (2007,  R)
I Think I Love My Wife
Reasonably good comedy with some good Chris Rock humour and some good laughs, plus the very sexy Kerry Washington. Overall worth a look.
79
The Brave One (2007,  R)
The Brave One
A very strong movie with a top-notch performance from Jodie Foster. Good characters and a great storyline made this a brilliant film with a strong cast.
80
Crash (2004,  R)
Crash
A very intense film with some stand-out scenes and some brilliant performances from a few of the main actors. A film I would highly reccomend.
81
Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery (1997,  PG-13)
Austin Powers - International Man of Mystery
A strong start to what was a great trilogy :) Plenty of funny moments thanks to Mike Myers and a good storyline to follow.
82
Austin Powers - The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999,  PG-13)
Austin Powers - The Spy Who Shagged Me
Just as good as the first movie with more characters (Mini-Me, Fat Bastard & Felicity) and a better storyline plus plenty of good laughs and goofs to continue the enjoyable Austin Powers trilogy.
83
Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002,  PG-13)
Austin Powers in Goldmember
The strongest of the trilogy with more laughs, characters and a solid storyline. Beyonce was a nice addition as Foxxy Cleopatra as well :)
84
Spider-Man 3 (2007,  PG-13)
Spider-Man 3
An impressive addition to the Spiderman films with some shining moments to add to the trilogy. Plenty of good character development and some strong villians made for a more memorable film out of the three Spiderman films.
85
Beethoven's 2nd (1994,  PG)
Beethoven's 2nd
More enjoyable than the first and who couldn't resist those adorable puppies! Good storyline and a super-evil villian that every child would have feared (that's Regina I'm talking about).
86
Shutter (2008,  PG-13)
Shutter
Another impressive Asian Horror remake to make these films enjoyable for worldwide viewers. Strong storyline with good acting, characters and some very scary moments that will send shivers up the spine. Well worth watching.
87
The Invisible (2007,  PG-13)
The Invisible
A great Thriller with a good storyline, characters and acting especially from Justin & Margarita. The simple storyline and events made it easy to watch with a few surprises in there too. Fans of spiritual films should get a kick out of it.
88
The Warriors (1979,  R)
The Warriors
Didn't know if I'd like it or not but I rather enjoyed it desptie being an older film and one I wouldn't normally like. Good characters and storyline and while dodgy in parts it was overall enjoyable to watch.
89
Honey, I Blew Up the Kid (1992,  PG)
Honey, I Blew Up the Kid
Enjoyable family/kids movie I liked as a kid and still enjoy today. Better than the first, mainly because Adam is one of the coolest babies around. Good storyline, and Keri Russell is perfect as the hot babysitter Mandy.
90
Bring It On (2000,  PG-13)
Bring It On
A very enjoyable cheerleader movie that isn't just for the girls. Stronger than the countless sequels it spawned as well. Kirsten & Eliza are a good duo and Gabrielle Union is great in her role too. Good storyline and well worth watching.
91
Bring It On Again (2004,  PG-13)
Bring It On Again
A reasonably good sequel to the first film that is obviously no match but still watchable. Faune A. Chambers is great for this film as Monica, but I didn't think much of the lead characters Whittier. Good storyline but disappointing characters.
92
Tamara (2006,  R)
Tamara
Great horror film that everyone can enjoy! Plenty to keep you interested here, and it had a killer ending as well :) Well worth watching if you're a fan of light Horror.
93
Twilight (2008,  PG-13)
Twilight
I knew I'd like it; which I did, but it did take me a while to see it. Props to Kristen & Robert who make the perfect pair. Shame it started out so slow and the action only really picked up towards the end. Overall worth the wait and I'm looking forward to the sequel :)
94
High School Musical 3: Senior Year (2008,  G)
High School Musical 3: Senior Year
A reasonably good addition to the HSM films but they've still struggled to shake the corny vibe. Some good songs and a storyline, plus the likeable characters remain, but the overall corny factor is what really gets me. Still worth a watch, and the Disney tweens should be pleased.
95
Janghwa, Hongryeon (A Tale of Two Sisters) (2003,  R)
Janghwa, Hongryeon (A Tale of Two Sisters)
It's probably the first foreign film I've really tried to enjoy and appreciate; but I struggled to with this. The storyline is confusing, and if I hadn't of seen the US remake 'The Uninvited ' I'd have no clue what was going on. Very good acting but as a film it was rather poor.
96
Mean Girls (2004,  PG-13)
Mean Girls
A film that really reminds you of the good and bad times of high school, and boy did it get it right. Perfect cast and a good storyline made this a very enjoyable film to watch with some hilarious one-liners and scenes. A film every teenager should watch :)
97
Wrong Turn (2003,  R)
Wrong Turn
One of my favourite Horror films that is nothing more than a good storyline, characters and freaky 'Mountain Men'; it needs no more. Likeable characters and a simple yet interesting storyline made this film what it is and Horror fans should be very pleased.
98
Wrong Turn 2: Dead End (2007,  Unrated)
Wrong Turn 2: Dead End
Brilliant! Better than the first thanks to more characters and an interesting storyline, and one of the best and goriest Horror films I've seen! The mutant family are also great!
99
The Mist (2007,  R)
The Mist
Brilliant! The ending is truly shocking but a brilliant ending to the film. Some stand-out performances as well, especially from Marcia Gay Harden. A brillaint film that is well worth watching!
100
Good Luck Chuck (2007,  R)
Good Luck Chuck
A very funny comedy flick with Dane & Jessica as a strong lead duo. Plenty of good funny jokes and not forgetting the irresistible Jessica Alba playing the clumsy Cam. Overall well worth a watch for comedy fans.
101
The Godfather (1972,  R)
The Godfather
Yawn. I know it's meant to be like the best film of all time but I just found it boring. Maybe it's because I don't 'get' these mafia style films, and even though the acting was good, the film itself was just plain boring for me and I just couldn't get into it.
102
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone) (2001,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone)
A great start to what has ended up being a very succesful series of films, and this is where it all began. The kids are still so young and innocent and it's kinda weird watching them when they were so little!
103
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Better than the first with more action and a better storyline. The kids are still innocent and enjoyable to watch, and who couldn't love Dobby the house elf! Probably the best in the seires too.
104
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Another impressive addition to the Harry Potter series despite losing Richard Harris as Dumbledore and gaining Michael Gambon who is obviously a shocking choice. Good storyline and overal well worth watching.
105
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005,  PG-13)
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Another impressive add to the Harry Potter series despite being a much darker film than the first three. Still a good watch and plenty to keep you entertained.
106
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007,  PG-13)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
The best of the Harry Potter films, so far anyway. The addition of two charaters, Luna and Dolores Umbridge, really helped the film, plus it was a very good storyline too. Overall well worth watching.
107
Stir Crazy (1980,  R)
Stir Crazy
Not as funny as the other Wilder/Pryor film 'See No Evil, Hear No Evil' but still a good comedy movie with some good laughs. Worth watching for a good chuckle, but nothing more.
108
John Tucker Must Die (2006,  PG-13)
John Tucker Must Die
A reasonably good High-School comedy that's probably taken an idea or two from 'Mean Girls' but failed to match the films success. Good cast and storyline and even though it's idea that hasn't really been done before it feels like it has been.
109
Halloween - Resurrection (2002,  R)
Halloween - Resurrection
Compared to Zombie's clever remake it might appear crap but for a Horror film it's not all bad. Good storyline but the acting and characters could've been much better. An improvement on H20 but still nothing special.
110
Just Friends (2005,  PG-13)
Just Friends
One of the funniest comedies I've seen in a while :) Anna Faris is the obvious highlight, especially when she's got the toothpaste :P Good storyline and characters as well.
111
Rogue (Rogue Crocodile) (2008,  R)
Rogue (Rogue Crocodile)
A very strong Horror film that once again has done us Aussies proud after Wolf Creek. Strong storyline and characters, and I've never seen a crocodile film pulled off before so that was great to see :)
112
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007,  R)
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
This was quite a surprise because I never though I was going to like a Musical Horror but there you go. Helena Bonham Carter stood out over Johnny Depp and Ed Sanders who plays young Toby is also a star on the rise. Great movie and well worth watching.
113
Idle Hands (1999,  R)
Idle Hands
A good comedy with some very funny scenes and a great cast lead by Devon Sawa who does a great job, plus it's great seeing a young Jessica Alba in action.
114
Bruce Almighty (2003,  PG-13)
Bruce Almighty
Gotta love a good Jim Carrey film and there are plenty of laughs to be had here. Good storyline and characters plus some very funny scenes made for a great comedy film with Jim Carrey as the obvious highlight.
115
Miss Congeniality (2000,  PG-13)
Miss Congeniality
One of my favourite comedies and being a fan of these beauty pageants probably made me like it even more. Sandra Bullock is perfect as FBI agent turned Beauty Pagent entrant Gracie. The storyline is simple yet effective and there are plenty of good funny moments to keep you amused.
116
Terminator Salvation (2009,  PG-13)
Terminator Salvation
What a great action film! I totally loved it :D I'm a huge fan of The Terminator series and have loved the previous films, but this one really tops the lot with more action than ever before plus some great new characters and actors. Overall well worth checking out!
117
Jeepers Creepers (2001,  R)
Jeepers Creepers
Pretty good but the sequel is the one to look out for. Had plenty of potential just never lived up to it. Justin Long & Gina Phillips were good as the leads.
118
Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003,  R)
Jeepers Creepers 2
Much better than the first with a better storyline, characters and overall there was more action! It pretty much had everything the first film was missing. The school bus idea was also perfect for a Horror film!
119
Juno (2007,  PG-13)
Juno
Loved it :) Great storyline and acting, with Ellen Page as the obvious stand-out. It's the type of comedy that not everyone will 'get' but I did so it's all good :)
120
Miss Congeniality 2 - Armed and Fabulous (2005,  PG-13)
Miss Congeniality 2 - Armed and Fabulous
Not as good as the first but still a reasonable sequel with Sandra Bullock reprising her role rather well. Regina King was also a nice new addition. Storyline was OK, I kinda missed the Beauty Pageant theme though :P Overall a good comedy worth checking out.
121
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe (2005,  PG)
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
Narnia is a great Fantasy movie that I really enjoyed. The characters are well written and it's a good storyline, obviously coming from a great book. Tilda Swinton is a stand-out as the evil 'White Witch' and the four youngsters also do a great job with their roles. I haven't seen the sequel yet but am looking forward to doing so.
122
Thirteen Ghosts (13 Ghosts) (2001,  R)
Thirteen Ghosts (13 Ghosts)
The general idea, concept and ghosts in this film make it what it is. When you really think about the acting and storyline you start to see some flaws, but how can that maze of a house and the creative ghosts be ignored. It's an enjoyable Horror film with good characters and storyline but it's the concept and general idea of the film that makes it what it is. Overall well worth watching for good Horror fun.
123
Urban Legend (1998,  R)
Urban Legend
A reasonably good 90's Horror flick with a good storyline, cast & characters, plus a few un-expected twists and turns along the way. I don't feel Alicia Witt was a good pick for the female lead, but Jared Leto was good for the male lead. Better than the two sequels that spawned a few years later that's for sure. Horror fans should have some fun with it :)
124
Deliverance (1972,  R)
Deliverance
The guitar music was cool :P The film however was a tad on the slow side for me, but I can see how it became so popular because the actors are very good, and there are some disturbing scenes. Overall just not for me I guess.
125
The Emperor's New Groove (2000,  G)
The Emperor's New Groove
One of my favourite Disney films, and while it's nothing compared to the likes of 'The Lion King' it's still a very enjoyable kids flick to watch and enjoy. The characters are great, especially Kronk, and it's a simple yet effective storyline with some very funny scenes. Sure it's not a brilliant Disney film, but a worthy mention and worth checking out.
126
Are We Done Yet? (2007,  PG)
Are We Done Yet?
Again just as disappointing as the first one. Good to see the kids were less irritating this time, but gone was all the entertainment because the sequel was rather dull and boring. Some slightly funny bits here and there but simply not enough, and no strong storyline either. The character Chuck was also quite irritating, and in a way replaced the irritating kids from the first film. Overall worth giving it a miss, same as the first one.
127
Are We There Yet? (2005,  PG)
Are We There Yet?
It's OK but painfull to watch at times because you feel like kicking those darn kids in the head. Way too many silly scenes that are obviously to appeal to younger children but irritate any viewers over the age of 13. Ice Cube is good given that the storyline and so-on aren't that good. Overall worth a miss because you won't get too many laughs out of it.
128
Chicago (2002,  PG-13)
Chicago
Brilliant! Easily the best musical I've seen and one of the best movies I've seen as well. The songs are just great and the acting is first class as well. A definite must-see :)
129
Scream (1996,  R)
Scream
The film that put Horror movies back in business! Scream is a true classic in my eyes and a must-see for Horror fans! The storyline, characters and suspense are all perfect :D A great all-star cast as well.
130
Scream 2 (1997,  R)
Scream 2
An impressive sequel to the brilliant first film in this trilogy. The sequel doesn't take things as seriously as the first one did with a bit more comedy as well as some laughable moments here and there. All the main players are back, but not all stick around for the third installment :P Good storyline, good characters and overall there really isn't anything bad to say about it :)
131
Scream 3 (2000,  R)
Scream 3
An impressive end to an impressive trilogy :) While it's probably my least favourite of the trilogy it's still a great Horror film and it was great to see Sidney, Dewey, Gale & Cotton back for a third time. The new characters were good, some a bit irritating, but overall pretty good. The storyline was also good and I always like it when we go back to the start to uncover some new secrets. There's also some unnecessary comedy, but overall it's a great way to end the trilogy with a great ending :)
132
From Hell (2001,  R)
From Hell
Quite a clever little murder-mystery film surrounding the 'Jack The Ripper' tales of the late 1800's. Johnny Depp is fine as Inspector Abberline as is Heather Graham as Mary Kelly. The storyline keeps you guessing as who holds the true identity of Jack The Ripper as well which is always fun to play the guessing game. Overall a good film worth checking out if you're up for the chase.
133
I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997,  R)
I Know What You Did Last Summer
In my eyes Scream and this film got Horror films back on track and introduced us to 'Slasher films'. While I Know What You Did Last Summer isn't a stand-out it's still a great 90's Horror flick that's nothing but good fun to watch. Lead by an all-star cast, some great characters, death scenes and The Fisherman will go down as one of the creepiest killers around; you can't go wrong with this film.
134
Dying Breed (2009,  R)
Dying Breed
Loved it! Being a fan of Wolf Creek I knew that I'd like this one as well, also because I've been to Tasmania before. I'm also quite interested in the Tasmanian Tiger. Storyline was great with some moments of pure gold, some particular scenes stand out more than others. Acting was also very good with our leading cast all doing very well, including Nathan Phillips in a more outspoken and loud role. Wolf Creek fans should be pleased and I'd highly reccomend it to any Horror fans as well.
135
My Bloody Valentine 3-D (2009,  R)
My Bloody Valentine 3-D
A reasonably good Horror/Slasher flick (that I tried to watch in 3D but ended up watching the 2D version instead because 3D is very difficult to get used to). Some bits however were just a tad too corny, and obviously done just to get the kicks for the 3D effects (eye popping, axe throwing, etc.). Twist was good, didn't see that one coming (don't know if the original had that twist too or not) but would have prefered a better outcome. Acting was also pretty good, so overall worth a look.
136
Jaws (1975,  PG)
Jaws
OK so some scenes are pretty good. I liked the opening scene with poor Chrissie becoming 'Jaws' first victim, but apart from that it's a rathet dull and drawn-out movie. The last 40 minutes are especially drawn out with only the last few minutes with some good old action. Obviously it's one of those films you must see before you die, but there are definitley better films out there.
137
Perfect Stranger (2007,  R)
Perfect Stranger
I love nothing more than a Murder Mystery film, and this one really takes the cake. First things first; Halle Berry is a star and a shining one indeed in this film. Loved the storyline and it's always fun trying to pick who the killer is, and so-on. There's a twist in this film that you'll never see coming either and it's delivered brilliantly at the end of the film. Great acting, characters, storyline and overall a great film well worth checking out.
138
The House Bunny (2008,  PG-13)
The House Bunny
Funny stuff :) Nothing beats Anna Faris when coming to a good laugh and she delivers plenty here. Good storyline, characters and some great laughs make for a good fun movie.
139
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975,  R)
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Gave it a shot to see if I would like it and I did. Not the most interesting of movies as some scenes are drawn out but there are moments of greatness, especially the last few minutes. Jack Nicholson really shows his acting talent in this one as well.
140
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Not as good as the last Harry Potter film but still a reasonable addition to the series with some highlights (and not to mention some lowlights). Storyline wasn't as great as there wasn't as much going on this time 'round, but overall you can't go wrong with the Potter films as they simply draw you in from start to finish.
141
Meet Dave (2008,  PG)
Meet Dave
Pretty good despite being totally weird but a great idea for a film. Eddie Murphy is pretty funny and Gabrielle Union, well she's just smoking hot :) Not bad for a comedy and worth checking out.
142
Wild Child (2008,  PG-13)
Wild Child
Not bad but nothing we haven't seen before either. Emma Roberts is quite good, but the general idea of the film just felt like it had been done before. Few laughs here and there. Overall one for the girls, young girls that is.
143
Snakes on a Plane (2006,  R)
Snakes on a Plane
Throw in some Comedy, Action, Thrils and a snake here and there and you've got a hell of a movie! Very entertaining and very creative as well; provided plenty of entertainmant :)
144
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984,  R)
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Freddy Krueger is the greatest Horror villain ever and this is the film where it all started. From the gory and bloody death scenes to the creepy moment of Freddy being sick and twisted; this movie really has it all. Heather Langenkamp is very good as the film's lead character Nancy. The storyline is easy to get slightly lost within it, especially the ending, but still very effective. For an 80's Horror film it does it's job and I was more than impressed :)
145
Scooby-Doo (2002,  PG)
Scooby-Doo
I loved the cartoon so I was bound to love the movie adaption; and I did :) I don't think they could have found 4 better actors to portray Mystery Inc. as well. The plot is simple yet effective and even thought it's obviously aimed at kids I can still find myself enjoying it time and time again (because I've seen it quite a few times now :P). Great family flick well worth seeing :)
146
Saw (2004,  R)
Saw
A great start to what's ended up as a very clever series of Horror films (and who knows when they will stop as well :P). Such a clever Horror/Thriller with Jigsaw easily making one of the most memorable Horror killers around despite barely seeing him in this film. Even though most of the film is set in one small bathroom it has such a large effect. Some gut-churning moments that will stick with you long after the movie's over as well. Overall one for the Horror buffs!
147
Love Wrecked (2005,  PG)
Love Wrecked
An enjoyable teen flick thanks to a likeable cast lead by Amanda Bynes, who simply lights up the screen when she's on. To be honest the storyline is a tad on the silly side but it's a harmless movie with some good laughs to keep you happy. It's also very predictable but that's to be expected. It's the likeable cast and characters that really save this movie from being a dud in the end.
148
Scary Movie (2000,  R)
Scary Movie
The Scary Movie films are just great to watch and this is where it all started. Scary Movie is full of great laughs and funny moments put together with a clever storyline that links Horror classics like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Anna Faris and Regina Hall are just hilarious as friends Cindy and Brenda, and the series wouldn't be the same without them. A great comedy spoof that I would reccomend to anyone up for a good laugh :)
149
The Cheetah Girls: One World (2008,  Unrated)
The Cheetah Girls: One World
It might be as corny as they come but I quite enjoyed watching this :) I'm a fan of The Cheetah Girls in general, and was also a fan of the R&B trio '3LW' that The Cheetah Girls used to be so I've enjoyed all three of these movies. The storyline is a tad on the predictable side but hey it's expected with a straight to DVD Disney film I guess. The songs were pretty impressive with some very catchy ones. Overall fans of the first two Cheetah Girls films will enjoy this one just as much :)
150
Saw II (2005,  R)
Saw II
Better than the first thanks to a more interesting storyline, more characters and we start to delve into the mind of Jigsaw. I loved the idea of having innocent victims locked inside a house and we get to watch them drop one by one. Donnie Wahlberg is great as the male lead and Tobin Bell is of course brilliant as Jigsaw. Jigsaw's death traps and tests are becoming even more creative as you will see in the sequel. Overall an impressive sequel that will keep Horror fans more than happy.
151
Sorority Row (2009,  R)
Sorority Row
An impressive teenage Horror with a great storyline, cast and characters. Some very memorable death scenes which is always a plus as well. You're guessing 'till the end as to who's doing all the killings which I always like. The final sequences are quite graphic (and slightly remind me of House Of Wax's final scenes) and show up great on screen. Overall an impressive Horror flick well worth checking out if you're a fan of slasher Horror films.
152
Scary Movie 2 (2001,  R)
Scary Movie 2
Poor compared to the first 'Scary Movie' installment, but as a comedy it still does the job of making me laugh and at the end of the day that's what it all about. There's no real storyline or plot but the gags are quite funny thanks to the cast, especially Anna Faris and Regina Hall once again. Some jokes however simply didn't work (Basketball scene rings a bell...). Overall it's funny and worth checking out for a chuckle, but the other three Scary Movie films are much better.
153
Scooby-Doo 2 - Monsters Unleashed (2004,  PG)
Scooby-Doo 2 - Monsters Unleashed
A reasonably good sequel but unforntuatley it doesn't live up to the first film which I just loved :) All the main players are back once again and even though it's a creative storyline it's not as exciting and visual as the first film. Gags are still good with plenty of good laughs, mostly thanks to Matthew Lillard's work with Scooby. Monsters Unleashed does feel like it's aimed at younger children, but I can still manage to enjoy it with ease :) Worth a look for Scooby Doo fans :)
154
Saw III (2006,  R)
Saw III
It's great to get some un-answered questions finally answered in this third installment from the Saw series, but compared to the first two films it falls short. I wasn't too fond of the killings, or the new characters, but I did like getting to know Amanda more. I don't know if having most of the film set in the one room (similar to the first) had anything to do with it or not but I definitley enjoyed Saw II more. Overall it's still an impressive addition to the Saw series and worth a look.
155
Thirteen (2003,  R)
Thirteen
A very deep and meaningful film that was hard to like at times simply because the two main characters Tracy and Evie were such horrible girls at times, but props to the actors Evan Rachel Wood and Nikki Reed who portrayed them very well. Holly Hunter was also amazing as Tracy's poor Mother Melanie who struggled to watch her innocent daughter turn into a slut. Not a very enjoyable movie to watch but it had it's moments, but overall an average look at a teenage girl's life turned upside down.
156
Scary Movie 3 (2003,  PG-13)
Scary Movie 3
The Wayans Brothers are no more as the third installment gets Zucker's touch and boy did it work :) Just as impressive as the first; the storyline cleverly links 'Signs', 'The Ring', '8 Mile' and many more films in this movie. Anna Faris is back as Cindy, as is Regina Hall as her friend Brenda, and it makes you realize who knows what the Scary Movie series would be without them. Plenty of funny moments and jokes that had me laughing the whole time. Scary Movie 3 is well worth checking out!
157
Cloverfield (2008,  PG-13)
Cloverfield
There really isn't any other film like it which is why I just loved it :) Stars off fairly slow but once the action kicks in it's hard not to be drawn in. From the Statue Of Liberty loosing her head to the attacks in the tunnels; this film has some very memorable scenes and all filmed with nothing more than a camcorder. You really feel like you're in the moment, shaky camera work and all, and it has such a great, and deceiving, effect on you. Overall Cloverfield is the monster movie not to miss!
158
Spectacular! (2009,  Unrated)
Spectacular!
I saw it as a less corny & budget version of High School Musical but it was still enjoyable to watch. Nolan Gerard Funk & Tammin Sursok were good as the male & female leads but no real stand-outs for the rest of the cast. Storyline was very predictable but sometimes it's fun knowing what's going to happen next :P Songs were also pretty catchy and impressive. Obviously it's no real match for the High School Musical saga or the current Glee TV Series; but it's still good fun and wort a look.
159
The Grudge 3 (2009,  R)
The Grudge 3
Not bad, but obviously no match for the original or the sequel. The film pretty much takes off where the second one ended and I like that we finally get to see what really happened to Jake. Johanna Braddy wasn't a bad lead but compared to Sarah Michelle Gellar she's nothing. The storyline was OK, slightly boring at times, as were the death scenes. The last half hour shared similarities to The Amityville Horror which I found rather odd. Overall not bad but could've been better.
160
Funny People (2009,  R)
Funny People
It's funny, but in order to really enjoy this film you need to be a real Apatow fan which I am not so I couldn't really get into it. Adam Sandler is slightly irritating as film star/comedian George Simmons but Seth Rogen is quite likeable as Ira. The storyline kind of goes off into a different direction half way through which is odd. The jokes are funny but if you're not a real comedy fan it's probably not the movie for you. Overall it's funny but only Apatow fans will really appreciate it.
161
Anaconda III (2008,  Unrated)
Anaconda III
Not bad and definitley entertaining but it's nothing compared to the first two Anaconda movies. While the CGI work is quite shocking, the storyline wasn't too bad and the characters were good too. Crystal Allen was fine as the female lead but this film probably could have survived without 'The Hoff' there to screw it up. Good death scenes, good action sequences, and overall I was entertained throughout the film so if you're up for some corny Horror/Action then this is the way to go.
162
Saw IV (2007,  R)
Saw IV
The fourth Saw film in the Saw series is probably the least interesting despite having the most twists and turns. Jigsaw and Amanda might be no more but that doesn't mean their presence isn't still there, especially in Jigsaw's case as his work is still carried on. I like the fact Rigg (Lyriq Bent) is the main character this time as he's been featured in the previous three films. Good storyline, creative death scenes and overall an impressive addition to the series :)
163
An American Haunting (2006,  PG-13)
An American Haunting
A reasonably good Horror/Thriller that has quite a few jumpy moments as well. It's probably up there in the top 5 or so films that actually scared me too. Storyline is good despite taking a different turn near the end. Acting is also very good with Rachel Hurd-Wood a real stand-out. As I mentioned the final moment of the film are quite a surprise and it's kind of a twist I never saw coming. Overall worth a look, but it won't please everyone.
164
The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior (2008,  PG-13)
The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior
A reasonably good sequel to The Rock's 'The Scorpion King' but obviously doesn't come close to matching it. It's pretty much everything you'd expect from a straight to DVD film sequel but sometimes it's fun to watch a corny movie like this one. Acting was pretty good, storyline maybe not so much as it seemed to drift around the middle before finding it's way back near the end. Overall it won't please everyone but fans of the first film might end up enjoying it like I did.
165
Hostel: Part II (2007,  R)
Hostel: Part II
Better than the first (which I don't really remember too well) and despite being a difficult film to watch because it's so gory; it had a good storyline and characters, plus Lauren German was brilliant as Beth. The death scenes, well one in particular, will stay with you long after you see the film as it's truly disgusting yet brilliant for a Horror film. Eli Roth (director/writer) sure has a sick and twisted mind, but for a Horror film it's great and fans of the genre will be pleased.
166
Sorority Boys (2002,  R)
Sorority Boys
Nothing like a college movie to get some good laughs, and in the tradition of the 'American Pie' films 'Sorority Boys' is full of good laughs and jokes. Barry, Michael and Harland are hilarious as three college students that dress up as girls to try and get back into their original Frat House. The storyline is very creative despite probably being done before. There are a few hilarious moments that I laughed out loud for as well :P Overall a great comedy well worth checking out for a good laugh.
167
Sky High (2005,  PG)
Sky High
A more than impressive Disney flick with such a creative concept, storyline and characters. Sky High is just a breath of fresh air compared to most kids/teen films coming out these days. Lead by an all-star and strong cast Sky High is perfect for kids, teens and even adults and appeals to all ages. The creative superhero powers are also very clever. Overall a very impressive Disney film I'd highly reccomend anyone to check out :)
168
Scary Movie 4 (2006,  PG-13)
Scary Movie 4
Just as good as the first and third installments and still providing plenty of good laughs along the way :) The fourth installment of the 'Scary Movie' films is probably the most creative blending the storylines of 'War Of The Worlds', 'The Grudge', 'The Village' and more all together for one hilarious movie! Anna Faris and Regina Hall are back to provide even more laughs as well. While some jokes simply don't work, majority do. Overall Scary Movie 4 will keep fans of the series more than happy.
169
Obsessed (2009,  PG-13)
Obsessed
An extremley intense Thriller brilliantly acted by Idris, Beyonce and Ali with a strong storyline and characters. Ali Larter is perfect as the seductive Lisa, and Beyonce plays a strong role as wife and Mother Sharon. Irdis Elba is also quite good as the lead character Derek, but the ladies probably steal the show. A very intense storyline that really shines near the end of the film. Overall well worth watching and Thriller fans should get kick out of it :)
170
House of Wax (2005,  R)
House of Wax
Easily the best Horror film I've seen and my favourite film of all time. Why? Because it simply has everything it needed to be an effective Horror film. The storyline/plot is very creative and the whole 'wax' idea is brilliant. Cast and Characters are also spot on with very likeable characters portrayed by a strong cast (even Paris Hilton isn't too bad). Death scenes are very memorable and gory, plus some very cringe-worthy moments that complete a perfect Horror film that is a must-see!
171
Saw V (2008,  R)
Saw V
Once again the Saw films deliver another great addition to the series with the fifth addition getting back to the goods similar to the first and second films delivered. While it can be easily to get lost with flashbacks, etc. if you really concerntrate it's not so bad (but it's one of those films best watched on your own so you can do this). I liked the concept with the five victims chained in the room, and I also liked Brit & Luba's characters. Overall another impressive addition :)
172
Final Destination (2000,  R)
Final Destination
A solid effort and addition to the great Horror films that have come out of this century, and it's spawned some great sequels too so it's great to go back and see where it all started. A strong all-star cast and a very creative storyline made this an instant hit and it's hard not to love it. Corny and cliche' maybe but still highly entertaining to watch. Ali Larter is a stand-out for me casting wise. Overall a great suspensful film that will make you think twice about life and death.
173
Final Destination 2 (2003,  R)
Final Destination 2
While it doesn't match the original it's still an impressive sequel that should keep fans of the first happy. A.J. Cook is pretty good as the female lead, but it's good to see Ali Larter back who continues to shine like she did in the first. The death scenes are once again very gory and some really stand-out! Acting was great, but the slight letdown was the storyline which did get a tad on the corny side here and there. Overall an impressive sequel well worth checking out though :)
174
Final Destination 3 (2006,  R)
Final Destination 3
An impressive addition to the trilogy that's better than the second and just as good as the first. The rollercoaster crash at the beginning of the film is a great opening to the film and could just put you off rolercoasters for a while. The storyline runs well and is lead by a strong cast, despite Mary Elizabeth Winstead not being as strong as Ali Larter. The death scenes are once again very creative and as gory as ever. Overall a must see for fans of the first two films!
175
Saw VI (2009,  R)
Saw VI
The best Saw film in the series! From start to finish this film will have you on the edge of your seat and I just loved it :D The 'games' are by far the most creative that any Saw film has had, and many unanswered questions are finally resolved. Fans of the series will be very impressed with the latest installment because it stays true to the first Saw films but brings in new elements as well. Overall the best of the Saw franchise and well worth checking out!
176
The Final Destination (2009,  R)
The Final Destination
Another impressive addition to the Final Destination series, though it's probably my least favourite. Great idea and concept having the opening scene at a race track, and there were some very cool scenes and moments (I particualry loved the car wash scene :P). Could have been casted better as I didn't know barely any of the actors, and they weren't so great either. The lead character Nick had nothing on the previous leads either. Overall well worth checking out and it should please Horror fans.
177
Turistas (Paradise Lost) (2006,  R)
Turistas (Paradise Lost)
A very suspensful Thriller that will have you holiding your breath, literally, while watching it! I just loved it :) The concept was a great idea and the storyline, characters and actors were all brilliant. While it's slow to get going when the action starts it never stops. The final scenes in which the underwater cameras take charge really stand-out and are painful yet intriguing to watch at the same time. Overall Turistas is a brilliant Thriller that is definitley worth seeing.
178
Titanic (1997,  PG-13)
Titanic
A brilliant film that doesn't deserve the hate it seems to receive despite winning 11 Academy Awards. The love story between Jack & Rose is well done and well acted by Leo & Kate. The storyline is perfect right down to the final dramatic moments of the ships sinking. The scientific moments of the film (especially the beginning) are slightly boring, but from the moment the ship hits the iceberg the action never stops. Overall a brilliant film and one I'd highly reccomend to anybody.
179
Friday the 13th (2009,  R)
Friday the 13th
A very impressive slasher flick and an improvement on the other Jason films I've seen. Storyline was a great idea and while some of the characters weren't very likeable, some were like Clay (portrayed very well by Jared Padalecki) and Jenna. Jason once again provides some very cool and creative death scenes that really stand-out. I also liked the fact that you thought the five characters at the start were the mains, but obviously they weren't. Overall a great Horror film and I just loved it!
180
The Uninvited (2009,  PG-13)
The Uninvited
A very impressive Horror film that had the twist of all twists near the end! Emily Browning was an impressive female lead playing young Anna. The storyline was very clever with some surprising moments and a twist ending you will never see coming. There are also some very frightening and jumpy moments that had my heart racing! The twist is what really makes the film and probably wouldn't be as great without it. Overall a Horror film worth checking out!
181
The Forsaken (2001,  R)
The Forsaken
An enjoyable vampire flick that's low on gore but still has a great storyline and likeable characters. Nick (Brendan Fehr) is a book of knowledge when it comes to vampires but he's one of the best charactes, and Johnathon Schaech plays the perfect villain along with Phina Oruche as Cym. It's low on action right up until the end, but there's plenty to keep you entertained throughout. Overall it's not up there with the great vampire flicks but it's one worth checking out :)
182
War of the Worlds (2005,  PG-13)
War of the Worlds
A great action packed disaster flick. Tom Cruise is OK as the lead, but it's the storyline and disaster scenes that really make this film. Some scenes in particular really stand-out, and without giving too much away some scenes are also a tad boring. Dakota Fanning is also very good as young Rachel as is Justin Chatwin as Robbie. Overall it's an action packed film well worth checking out :)
183
Deep Impact (1998,  PG-13)
Deep Impact
The perfect disaster flick with some mind-blowing scenes near the end and a great storyline. While it's a little dull here and there seeing as the 'good stuff' only happens at the end, there is some essential character building that needed to be done. The space quest was rather interesting to watch too. Morgan Freeman is great as the President, and Tea Leoni is rather likeable as the female lead. Overall it's up there with some of the great Disaster films, and it's one not to be missed.

Hairspray (2007,  PG)
Hairspray
One of my all-time favourite movies, and a brilliant musical! The fun and vibrant atmosphere of the film makes it a joy to watch and the music and songs are so catchy and enjoyable. The cast really work well together and newcommer Nikki Blonsky is perfect for the lead role of Tracy Turnbland, and props to John Travolta for playing Edna. Definitley an improvement on the 80's original as well with a much stronger message and better performances from the cast. This is a must-see!

Their Eyes Were Watching God (2005,  Unrated)
Their Eyes Were Watching God
This film really made me notice Halle Berry as an outstanding actor. The film is such a beautiful story of Janie Starks and her journey to discover herself and who she really is. The storyline has so many beautiful and also some sad moments but it's a great journey to go on. Halle Berry is the obvious stand-out and has portrayed Janie very well. The story's message of finding out about love and living is delivered so well and so clearly as well. A must-see and a film I just love :D

Anaconda (1997,  PG-13)
Anaconda
An enjoyable Horror/Thriller that's probably not for those who aren't the biggest fan of snakes :P Jennifer Lopez is surprisingly rather good as the lead and Jon Voight is perfect as our secondary villain to the Anaconda. Storyline is also good despite having stereotypical characters and corny moments here and there. Impressive deaths as you'd expect and overall a good solid ending makes for a good enjoyable film that has since spawned another three sequels since.

Anacondas - The Hunt for the Blood Orchid (2004,  PG-13)
Anacondas - The Hunt for the Blood Orchid
Better than the first thanks to a good diverse range of characters and a great storyline. There's also more action involved as well, plus the Blood Orchid quest was a great idea and a rather interesting one too. Johnny Messner is great as the male lead, and KaDee is quite likeable as Sam. Still has its corny moments like the first but it doesn't ruin the mood. Fans of the first Anaconda film should be kept happy. Well worth checking out :)

Quarantine (2008,  R)
Quarantine
Brilliant! Easily the most realistic Horror film I've watched and this kept you on the edge of your seat right from where the action starts. It's slow to begin with but it wouldn't have been effective if everything started happening straight away. Brilliant acting, storyline, characters and the infected residents are absolutley terrifying! I totally loved it and would reccomend any Horror fan that isn't afraid of a good scare to check it out!

The Towering Inferno (1974,  PG)
The Towering Inferno
Not bad for an old Action flick, and it kept me amused and entertained despite being a very long film. Great idea for a film and also not to have a particular villian causing the destruction like most action films these days. The two male leads worked well together as did some of the other characters. Some scenes stood out over others as there were some rather impressive (and sometimes amusing) death scenes. Overall it can still compare to our great action films these days, so it's worth a look.

2012 (2009,  PG-13)
2012
Not bad at all and possibly the best special effects I've seen in a film, but with the good came some rather corny and un-realistic moments here and there. John Cusack wasn't particularry good as the male lead but Chiwetel Ejofor was quite likeable. Storyline was good and kicked into gear rather quickly. It did share similarities to both Deep Impact and War of the Worlds; both which were just as good. The final scenes of the film are probably the best, and overall its definitley worth seeing!

The Unborn (2009,  PG-13)
The Unborn
Enjoyable Horror film with a great storyline and one darn evil kid that's enough to scare the sh!t out of ya :P Odette is suprisingly good as the lead and the supporting cast are also rather good. Little slow to begin with but once those 'jumpy' bits start they never really end. Death scenes are also rather impressive :) Overall it's one of the better recent Horror films that have been released lately and Horror fans should be pleased.

X-Men Origins - Wolverine (2009,  PG-13)
X-Men Origins - Wolverine
Very impressive and should keep the X-Men fans more than happy. Wolverine is back in this prequel to the X-Men films that also features a few other familiar characters like Sabretooth & Cyclops. Storyline is great and keeps your attention easily with some great fight sequences and death scenes. Acting is top notch with Hugh Jackman the obvious stand-out, but Liev Schreiber and Danny Huston also do a top job. Overall I really enjoyed it and it's definitley up there with the great X-Men films :)
