Look Who's Talking Too (1990)

81 mins     Comedy      

I mentioned in my review of "Look Who's Talking" that I remembered enjoying it when it came out but watching it again many years later I was quite stunned how unfunny it was. Well let me tell you that not only does the same t...

Fallen (1998)

124 mins     Action , Crime, Drama      

I am no expert, I have never gone to film school but for me director Gregory Hoblit makes one seriously big mistake early on and that is to make something too obvious. In fact it is a combination of scenes starting with the e...

Collateral Damage (2002)

The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005)

The Fourth Kind (2009)

98 mins     Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller      

So that is the hook "The Fourth Kind" appears to be a dramatization of real events which relate to missing people and in particular alien abduction except it is a crock of lies. You see "The Fourth Kind" is fake, the whole st...
