Saw
Not just another bloody disgusting movie... But one with a smart plot and a twist that'll make your head spin!

Saw II
Not as good as the first but still a solid horror movie with some scenes that'll make you turn your head away from the screen...

Beowulf
An interesting movie with a fine plot, although the ending and effects were a little disappointing.

Saw III
3 movies into this series proves that sequels almost never live up to the original creation. Despite this fact, Saw 3 is a good piece of horror and gives Saw fans more insight towards John's pre-Jigsaw life and of course brings Amanda's story to a...

Saw IV
Definitely the worst in the series so far. Saw 1 was amazing, 2 and 3 had their good moments but this one is nothing compared to the others! I hope Saw 5 turns out to be better than this, clearly this series needs Leigh Whannell to stay interesting.

Transformers
Amazing visual and sound effects! That what drove me to see this movie. The plot is not bad and the characters are well presented, it even gets some little laughs here and there, but there are always the dumb moments where Bay tries to make a...

Hitman
I watched this movie not expecting much, instead I got a pretty solid action flick that was fun to watch throughout. Yes, it had its flaws because it wasn't as exciting as people would expect from a Hitman movie, but overall there's nothing about...

The Golden Compass
The Golden Compass is not a bad movie, but based on such a great story, it could have been much better. While reading the book I realized directly from the first few chapters how many vast differences there is between the book and the movie. Let's...

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Most definitely one of my favorite movies of all time. Kept me captivated throughout with chilling performances and a wonderful direction. This movie is creative, gory and a great big screen adaption of the legendary Sweeney Todd!

Bee Movie
Dreamworks, you should learn a thing or two from Pixar; if there is no story to tell don't make a movie... Bee Movie had nothing whatsoever that would've made me remember it a week from now. The plot is way too childish and makes completely no...

No Country for Old Men
A very good movie with an amazing performance from Javier Bardem, that guy spills creepy all over the place!

Alvin and the Chipmunks
Alvin and the Chipmunks might not be a smart flick or one that'll amaze you with its brilliance, but it's definitely a movie that all family members would enjoy.

Children of Men
You don't know what you're missing if you haven't seen this yet. This movie is no less than PERFECT! An amazing plot, great cast and obviously the creative Alfonso Cuaron! Definitely on my all time favorites list!

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
I LOVED IT! Pitt and Affleck both gave stellar performances! Amazingly laid out and makes the story really engaging. But what I most liked about is again, Pitt and Affleck's performances... They were no less than amazing and I believe Brad...

Cloverfield
Thrilling and intense throughout. Cloverfield takes you inside all the action when a monster attacks Manhattan. I really liked the movie and was surprisde by how connected I was to the group of characters we followed. The home video camera...

I Am Legend
Despite some plot-holes and the fact that it completely strays from the book, I Am Legend was a very enjoyable movie. Will Smith really delivered throughout and his character was very moving. The movie loses a little of its novelty throughout the...

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Action packed, humorous, and Johnny Depp. What more could you ask for in a pirates movie? I really enjoyed this one although I had my doubts of how good a movie based on Disneyland ride can be. But being a fan of Depp's performances I decided to...

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Dead Man's Chest was quite boring most of the time, and completely not on-par with the first movie. The special effects were very well down but it was not enough to impress me especially with a series that I am not that impressed with in the first...

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
I was never really the ultimate Pirates fan. At World's End might not have been a fulfilling ending to the series avid fans but to me it was as good as these movie can get. I watched it because of the cool special effects and Johnny Depp so I...

Spider-Man 3
Despite its superior visual effects Spider-man 3 fails short when it comes to character depth, an element responsible for the success of the first two movies.

The very crowded villains scene clearly gave the writers little space to...

Crash
The smartly "crashing" plots, the great performances and the chilling background music makes Crash a must-see for every Drama fan. Thandie Newton's performance was a highlight for me especially in the car accident scene.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
I loved The Lord of the Rings since I saw the first movie. This third and final part is the finest of all with some solid performances, amazing visual effects and Peter Jackson's direction, Return of the King is no less than a masterpiece!

The Day After Tomorrow
Although the characters are as icy and flat as all the snow in this movie and the plot is a little too far from the truth, the cool visual effects makes it very fun to watch.

The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe
An amazing picture that captures the magical fairytale by C. S. Lewis and is enjoyable for both books fans and new fans. The movie succeeds on every level from the story layout to the great visuals and performances (I thought Tilda Swinton was...
