Let The Right One In (2008)

If you are a fan of vampire movies and would like a more unique take on the genre, I would recommend you check out “Låt den rätte komma in” Let The Right One In. The story takes place in the apartment building of one Oskar (Kåre Hedebrant), a quiet 12 year old who is constantly bullied by Conny (Patrik Rydmark) and his two friends, Martin (Mikael...

Slumdog Millionaire

Slumdog Millionaire

I guess a man needs to score 20 million rupees just to get the attention of a woman huh… There is a huge underlying theme in Slumdog Millionaire… yes when you look up the plot you will probably want to ignore it but it is a film that needs to be seen to be appreciated.

The movies that we have been shown about the past all seemed to center around hairy, stupid people battling...

The Lake House

The Lake House

First thing I have to say is that I love Sandra Bullock. Her looks are cute but not over the top and her acting is good so it always makes for a believable character whenever she’s involved. Keanu on the other hand usually comes off as stiff, one-dimensional and laughable (sorry Keanu, but it’s not just me thinking this) however in The Lake House ,...
