Movie Review: The Bucket List

29Jun08

Jack Nickolson and Morgan Freeman are cancer patients who share the same hospital room (ironically owned by Nickolson). They soon become friends and together co-write a list of things they want to do before they “kick the bucket” (hence the movie’s name).
The movie is a must-see for all ages, simply because it talks about the [...]

Quick Review: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

11Aug07

I consider myself lucky to have watched Harry Potter and the order Order of the Phoenix the first day it was shown in cinemas, and I’m still bragging about it as if I got my last-minute-ticket by using my charms or spending an extra effort. I was so excited, so maybe just maybe, it had [...]

The Most Hilarious 46 Seconds from The Simpsons Movie

28Jul07

Hahaha I can’t stop laughing at THAT! It was one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. I used to watch the Simpsons when I was a kid, the movie wasn’t that different from the show and though usually that’s not a good sign as was the case with Mr. Bean’s Holiday, the Simpsons Movie [...]

Billboards promoting the new movie Captivity were taken down in LA. The pictures were described as “shocking” and “disturbing” by people who caused the ban. Interesting, do you think these are shocking:

Roxanne

12Feb07

“Roxanne, you don’t have to put on the red light”. I only watched Moulin Rouge a couple of weeks ago on mbc2 and I’m glad I did. First of all, I’m a fan of musical movies so I was greatly entertained by the musical bits. But the reason this movie is now a favorite, is [...]

Arna’s Children

03Dec06

Al-Kasaba Festival closed yesterday with Arna’s Children. It was much better than I imagined it would be. There’s no way you can watch this documentary without getting emotional, I personally laughed and sobbed almost simultaneously at one moment, the humanitarian side of the film was very powerful. I think I’ve never really understood Palestinians who [...]
