The Shawshank Redemption

Ok folks...This is one of the best movies out there.

Morgan Freeman..and Tim Robbins get 5 stars outa me on this classic film.

Two imprisoned men bond over a number of years, finding solace and eventual redemption through acts of common decency.

The ending was great also!!

If you have not seen this movie..then get it!!


Hell Boy

This movie was great.

I thought it was gona be cheesy,but I was very wrong about this film!!

Ron Perlman is awesome in this movie,and Selma Blair is just breath taking all around.This is a good movie for the family too.


Who's Harry Crumb

I loved this comedy..and so miss John Candy.

This movie is full of laughs,and a great cast also helps make this one of the best John Candy movies ever.

You'll also love the cute Shawnee Smith who's in this movie also..:)

Harry Crumb is a bumbling and inept private investigator who is hired to solve the kidnapping of a young heiress which he's not expected to solve because his employer is the mastermind behind the kidnapping.


Blood Diamond

Leonardo DiCaprio..and Djimon Hounsou make this a movie worth watching.

A fisherman, a smuggler, and a syndicate of businessmen match wits over the possession of a priceless diamond.


Jeremiah Johnson

My favorite Robert Redford movie.

It's about a man who's had enough of society heads into the mountains to become a mountain man.

This has to be one of the best movies ever made.




Tombstone

This is one of my most favorite Kurt Russel Movies.He plays Wyatt Earp in this film,and I couldn't think of a better actor to play the part.

Val Kilmer also does an outstanding job in this fil..along with Sam Elliot & Bill Paxton.

Charlton Heston even has a small part in this film.

An awesome movie for every western collection!!


Dirty Harry

We should have more Police Inspector Harry Callahan type cops on the street now day..:)



The Boondock Saints

This is the first part of the series of The Boondock Saints.

Lota funny parts in this movie too.Make sure to check out the sequal.I heard that's just as good as this one.

I love Willem Dafoe in this movie.This guy should be in more movies.



The Terminator

A human-looking, apparently unstoppable cyborg is sent from the future to kill Sarah Connor.Kyle Reese is sent to stop it.

This is my favorite one with Arnold Schwarzenegger.Bill Paxton has a small part also..as a punk rocker street thug.(kinda finny).


Raiders of the Lost Ark

I love this series with Harrison Ford.It's a classic that never gets old.

A true adventure film, something for all the family.One to watch over and over again.It'll make your kids want to become an archaeologist.




Sleepy Hollow

Another great Johnny Depp movie.

Ichabod Crane is sent to Sleepy Hollow to investigate the decapitations of 3 people with the culprit being the legendary apparition, the Headless Horseman.

More Johnny Depp movies here.

This was a great Sean Connery movie.I wana find more of his stuff to add to the blog.

The Day After Tomorrow

This was a great Dennis Quaid movie.

Lota great action in this movie,and a very interesting look in what it would be like if our weather decided to make a change for the worse...You'll love this flick!!


Apocalypto

This movie was directed by Mel Gibson.

I wana get this one for my collection.This is another movie a person can watch over..and over again for a life time.

As the Mayan kingdom faces its decline, the rulers insist the key to prosperity is to build more temples and offer human sacrifices. Jaguar Paw (Youngblood), a young man captured for sacrifice, flees to avoid his fate.

This is a movie based on events in the Yukon Territory in the 1930's.

Albert Johnson known as the Mad Trapper..but he's really not the mad trapper.

The Full Monty

I love this movie!!

It's a Brittish made movie about six unemployed steel workers who form a male striptease act. The women cheer them on to go for "the full monty" - total nudity in other words.

Gotta remember these are just average guys also who are from all walks of life,and out of work.

You will laugh your butt off at this film!!



Independence Day

This is one of my favorite Will Smith movies.

Bill Pullman does a great job also..and so does Jeff Goldblum.

Randy Quaid is also unforgetable in his role.

The aliens are coming and their goal is to invade and destroy. Fighting superior technology, Man's best weapon is the will to survive.

From start to finish this movie keeps you glued to your chair!!







A Knights Tale

This was really an entertaining movie.Full of good laughs,and even a couple parts that make ya cry.

Dont let this movie being decribed as a comedy,or romance turn you away.It's a good movie for everyone.The guys & gals both love this film.

A peasant squire takes up the identity of his master when the knight suffers an untimely demise.So Heath Ledger takes up his sword and heads to the tournements himself in his place.

Lota great acting..and alot of great stars.Including Paul Bettany,Mark Addy..and Rufus Sewell.
