“The Princess Diaries” Movie Review
“The Princess Diaries” Plot Summary
A socially awkward but very bright 15-year-old girl being raised by a single mom discovers that she…
Great Movie for the ‘Awkward’ Girl in All of Us.
I remember when I first watched this movie. I was an intensely tomboyish preteen and pretty much against all media with the word ‘Princess’ even associated with it. Needless to say, I was not super excited when my cousins came over and popped this bad boy(err..girl) in our VCR. I honestly didn’t expect much: Disney, princess, tiaras, romance, please
But as I began watching it, I soon realized that I identified completely with Mia,(Anne Hathaway) an extremely awkward teenage girl who was rebellious, weird, unpopular, and yet, was offered the one thing that almost all teenage girls dream of: princess-ship, complete with new looks, limos, balls, gowns, hot guys, and power. Whoop!Yet, she practically had to be dragged into it kicking and screaming. Forget preppy hair do’s! Just leave me alone! Here was a princess story I could relate to! Mia wasn’t some whistling girl with a pure heart who caught birds on her fingers while working at a terrible job, that really wasn’t that terrible because she made it fun! She was an ungraceful chick who had learned to cope with the hardships of life, but not in the usual way. Everything about her was weird, and she liked it like that
But Mia had to grow up during this movie. She went from awkward to awesome in a matter of two hours. I loved the transformation were she went from laughed at, to applauded for by the end when she slams ice cream all over Lana’s(Mandy Moore) cheer leading outfit(something I personally loved because I was not particularly fond of cheer leading at this point..) Overall, great chick/ teen girl flick. It makes you believe that no matter how messed up your life is or you are, you still have a chance to be some super cool girl. And who doesn’t want to be a princess? Really.

“Cliffhanger” Movie Review
“Cliffhanger” Plot Summary
A botched mid-air heist results in suitcases full of cash being searched for by various groups throughout the Rocky Mountains.
one of Stallone’s best and a great movie.
There are those who hate Sylvester Stallone no matter what he does and/or says. While I have many movies that he has done that are awful, CLIFFHANGER is and an aptly film that is terrific from start to finish. Stallone gives a cautiously measured performance as a rescue climber who seems to have lost his edge after a horrifying accident. When a Federal Treasury plane crash lands in the mountians with a band of ruthless murderers and thieves on board, it is up to the rescuers to do what they do best. They find out about the plane’s cargo and it’s passengers only too late. Renny Harlin directs CLIFFHANGER with style and energy to burn. Stallone, Michael Rooker, and Janine Turner are the rescuers and John Lithgow leads his band of criminals through the mountians looking for three suitcases filled with untraceable cash. CLIFFHANGER has some incredible scenery and camera work and it’s script is literate and intelligent
I do have one curious question? Was it really necessary to have Lithgow speak with an British accent? Never to quibble over technicalities, CLIFFHANGER is a solid action picture; fun, exciting, and well worth 2 hours of you time. CLIFFHANGER-***1/2 out 4.

“Schindler’s List” Movie Review
“Schindler’s List” Plot Summary
Oskar Schindler uses Jews to start a factory in Poland during the war. He witnesses the horrors endured by the Jews, and starts to save them.
A film for all to see….and learn.
‘ I….pardon you.’These words spoken by Amon Goethe (Ralph Fiennes) during the film can be aptly used to signify the themes of this film: power and forgiveness
I am part of the post war generation who has been lucky enough not to experience any major war. And after watching this film, I have deep respect and feelings for those who suffered during these times, be it the Holocaust or the Nam war. This film was just waiting to be made and I’m glad it was the right man who dared to take up the challenge. Any other person would not have done it justice
The film focuses on how a German named Oskar Schindler saved the lives of thousands of Jews by employing them to work in his factory during WWII. However, I feel the film’s primary aim is not to show us Schindler’s kindness but the horrors of war. There are some of the most true and graphic scenes here ever captured on celluloid. People being shot for no particular reason, hiding in fear, stripped and gased, abused……so much so that viewers watching it for the 1st time will be deeply affected. We have never got to see this ‘flip side’ of the war in many Hollywood productions which only focuses on action and their unrealistic ‘gung-ho’ heroes. ( Another excellent film would be ‘Saving Pte Ryan’ by Spielberg again ) War and its horrors are finally and faithfully recreated for the audience
Like the film Raging Bull, its shot beautifully in black and white to reflect the era and tone of the film. Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes are excellent, esp the latter for his frightening protrayal of Amon Goethe. The scene where they discuss about power is a classic and the subsequent one where Amon ‘pardons’ a young jew remains as one of my many favs!

“Hook” Movie Review
“Hook” Plot Summary
When Capt. Hook kidnaps his children, an adult Peter Pan must return to Neverland and reclaim his youthful spirit in order to challenge his old enemy.
Love it !
Love the cast first of all. From Maggie Smith a goddess in my eyes to Dustin Hoffman and Robin William to a strange inclusion of Phil Collins. They all fit in well together so well. A magical story of Hook which take me into a wonderful fantasy land of what kids should dream about. This superb production should not be pulled down, for it is essentially a children’s film but I love it. My kids thinks I am a big kid but I don’t care. Julia Roberts as Tinks id Fab ! I am not the biggest fan of Robin Williams but I do like his portrayal of Peter Pan
A magical movie for the entire family
Granny included !!
