Jaws (1975, PG)
My ultimate favorite movie of all time! Jaws is the best picture that Steven Spielberg directed in my opinion. Talk about a killer shark that terrorizes Amitty Island on the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Loved the characters of Roy Scheider as Sheriff Brody and Richard Dreyfuss as the classic Hooper. Great movie! ;) |

Tim Burton's Corpse Bride (2005, PG)
My truly favorite dark and depessing cartoon, but fantastic as Tim Burton brings another cool dark animated film to the screen. Corpse Bride was amazing and loved the characters voiced by Johnny Depp and Helena Bohnam Carter. Lovable characters and classic. This movie I missed work for an hour to watch with my beloved husband. I will always remember this one as our favorite movie. R.I.P my brian. :( |

Pride and Prejudice (2005, PG)
Definitely one of my favorite Love stories of all time! I can't get enough of it, and it's so beautiful. I love Kiera Knightly who plays the adorable Lizzie that steals the heart of handsome Mr Darcy, played magnificently by Mathew Macfayden. I fell in love with him immediately, with his serious and quiet nature, but ultimately romantic. A favorite of mine forever! |

Bridge to Terabithia (2007, PG)
Don't expect to see a movie just about a Fantasy world. But the story is amazing and touching, with the imagination of what we see through the childrens eyes, we go through the magical and fantasy faze of what world could be out there if you do open up your mind. Great story, and will make you cry. I loved this movie so much, that it's now a new favorite of mine. |

The Return of the Living Dead (1985, R)
Brains!!!! My all time favorite zombie movie! Zombies that couldn't die regardless and hungered for brains. Funny movie with some creepy moments, but I just enjoyed this movis as much, although it tried to be scary, it just ended up being one of the hilarious movies with crazy lines from James Karen and Thom Mathews. ;) |

Pan's Labyrinth (El Laberinto del Fauno) (2006, R)
Great cinematography with wonderful set design and makeup with the creatures. Original story with some intense scenes due to the sadistic acts of a cruel soldier, and magical moments of mystical creatures. It delivers a beautiful story and is amazingly shot with wonderful set designs. An awesome story, and truly a favorite of mine. The music is also a nice touch as well. |

Napoleon Dynamite (2004, PG)
Who would think a nerdy character like Napoleon would be adored by the young audiences of today. With his goofy behavior, and strange antics, Napoleon is the funniest character I have seen in movies. A simple story with corny characters set in the rural small town in Idaho, makes u wonder if there is such people. All in all, I loved the movie, and is a definite fave of mine. |

Hairspray (2007) (2007, PG)
Well, I finally managed to see this movie. At first glance, I thought it was going to be a ridicilous musical...but, I was wrong. It was a very amusing movie with not a bad soundtrack to this suprising remake. John Travolta was hilarious as Edna Turnblad and he had me laughing so much as well as Christopher Walken with his amusing eccentric humor. The movie was great and the actors all were superb and funny. Loved the cameo's by John Waters as the Streaker and Riki Lake as one of the judges. ;) |

Grindhouse (Grind House) (2007, R)
The best film duo does it again. Tarentino and Rodriguez blow away the screen again with the Double Feature films Planet Terror and Death Proof. Not to mention that they add a little spice with Savini's make up effects in this Gorefabulous kick ass movies. Awesome characters to add to the touch with Planet Terror. Although Death Proof starts out quite slow, it's so worth it in the end, that you will be holding onto your seats, and actually cheering on the through the scenes. Love it Love it. ;) |

Bagdad Cafe (1988, PG)
I think I found a favorite in this simple but yet charming movie. Wonderful scripted with great acting by both Sagebrecht and Pounder. Not to mention great performance by Jack Palance, himself in a story of two women with two different backgrounds, but same situation of leaving their husbands behind. The outcome is suprising and will leave you happy with the ending. Great movie and now one of my top favorites!!! Also, love the song "Calling You" which is the theme song to the movie. Charming and wonderful. I give it two thumbs up! ;) |

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007, PG-13)
I was expecting an awesome movie, but was totally let down by the direction and adapted screenplay. Order of Phoenix was full of anticipation, more action with alot of stunning twists and excitement...to which JK Rowling made sure to keep us readers more on the edge. As for the adapted screenplay to this movie, it sucked! Everything was so compressed, or more like crammed in to try to make each scene work, but it lacked so many important scenes as well as putting them in areas it didn't work. I would have preferred Daniel yelling like Harry to Ron and Hermione as well as Dumbledore, to which he states my most favorite quote: "By all means continue destroying my possessions. I daresay I have too many." But, that's movies for you. Stick to the book! Sound score was terrible to make it even worse. A true let down. I am crossing fingers for the Half Blood Prince and hopes it does not suffer like this one. |

Little Miss Sunshine (2006, R)
This movie was realistically charming! Wonderful characters, with the foul mouth Grandpa being my favorite played by Alan Arkin, and to which he won for Best Supporting Actor. Just a simple story of a road trip to attend a pageant for their own little Olive, who's talent turns out to be totally hilarious. Wonderfully scripted and potrayed by all fine people. A classic that should have won, but didn't. Great movie to watch. |

Legend (1985, PG)
Awsome fantasy movie, well done by director Ridley Scott. Set in the most magical place of Legend, is the evil Darkness played brilliantly by Tim Curry, who set's to rule the world by destroying the light and keeping the world in Dark forever. Here comes Jack played by Tom Cruise who set's out to rescue his Lily and to save the planet before it's too late, and with the help of magical elves and fairies. A great movie and a cool soundtrack done by Tangerine Dream. The European version is also well done in the difference of the music score. Loved it! |
