Source Little Big Soldier is one of my favorite Jackie Chan movies. This pseudo-historical twist on an unlikely buddy comedy is a journey you really need to consider. It is a hilarious adventure with a powerful and relevant message. I have watched this movie in both the original Cantonese and its English dubbing. While the dubbing... Continue Reading →
YouTube Movie Review: Eragon (2006)
Source I read the Eragon back in high school, back around the time when the movie was coming out. I loved the book and I remember the excitement I felt about watching the movie. I remember exchanging that excitement for disappointment because the movie didn't hold the same magic that the book did. I decided that today,... Continue Reading →
YouTube Movie Review: Hackers (1995)
Source Hackers has not aged well. The dialect, fashion, and story feel obsolete. Don't get me wrong, there are some interesting characters but it is hard to get passed how cheesy the movie is. I would rather spend my time watching Wargames. It has a similar story but is done a lot better. If you've seen the live... Continue Reading →
YouTube Movie Review: A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)
Source A.I. Artificial Intelligence is a live-action adaption of Pinocchio set in the future. It features a great cast playing interesting characters in a cool-looking world. My only complaint is that it is a bit on the longer side. Some of the scenes are a bit drawn out, but I enjoyed the experience nonetheless. As far... Continue Reading →

I consider it a very influential movie from my childhood, although it had been a while since I last saw it. I have to... Continue Reading →
YouTube Movie Reviews: Last Knights (2015)
Source Here is a fantasy movie that doesn't require much commitment. Last Knights is a last-stand movie like "Rogue One" where the heroes go on this suicide mission to restore Morgan Freeman's honor. It is set in a fantasy setting, but do not let the fact that it is fantasy scare you. You do not... Continue Reading →
YouTube Movie Reviews: 10 Cloverfield Lane (2016)
Source I found myself enjoying this movie up until the end. The acting is what makes this movie work so well. John Goodman's character is amazing! His character is what gives the movie most of its suspense. I will commend the film's ability to effectively tell a solid narrative through the interactions between three people....

YouTube Movie Reviews: Superhero Movie (2008)
Source Superhero Movie is a parody that should not have been made. I remember not liking it when it first came out, but not much else. It has not aged well since. This movie relies heavily on farting. This movie fills its dead air with fart jokes because it doesn't have enough material to fill... Continue Reading →
Youtube Movie Reviews: Galaxy Quest (1999)
Source There isn't much to say about this movie; this is a good one. Watch it! It is a Star Trek parody that ends up being the "Star Trek" movie we've always wanted. It is funny, it is suspenseful, it is exciting, and it has real character growth. I honestly believe that it achieves more... Continue Reading →
