Writers: Susan Gauthier,Bruce Graham
Stars: Meg Ryan,John Cusack,Christopher Lloyd


Plot:
The only surviving child of the Russian Royal Family hooks up with two con men while the undead Rasputin seeks her death.

Personal Review:
This is one of my favorite cartoon movies.It was actually the first one I saw when I was a child.Every time I watch it I get a little bit emotional even though it does have a happy-ending.It's not a princess fairytale like some other films that little girls watch.It's a movie for all the family and I chose to write about it because it is set in Russia during the winter so it has some Christmas spirit in it.Also I love the song Once upon a December,it's like it can travel me to another time..

Meg Ryan-Anastasia
John Cusack-Dimitri

Stars: Audrey Hepburn,George Peppard,Patricia Neal


Plot:

Personal Review:
Finally,after a lot of years I managed to watch this movie.I did like it but not as much as I thought I would and that's because it is one of the best movie ever been created.I think that in my mind I was expecting something that would amaze me and that thing didn't came out as I expected.Of course Audrey Hepburn was really pretty.I do recommend it and it's worth watching just to see the last scene.and one more thing,if you're about to watch it,have in mind that it was made a lot of years ago.

Audrey Hepburn-Holly Golightly

Personal Review: I really wanted to watch this movie because I had jeard some really good things about it but actually I was dissapointed.It was an original idea indeed but it was boring.It was interesting at first but then it looked like the whole family had freaked out and it wasn't really pleasant to watch it happening.I wouldn't bother watching it again but for those who like dramatic movies may look like a challenge..

Director: Mikael Hafstrom
Writers: Michael Petroni,Matt Baglio
Stars: Colin O'Donoghue,Anthony Hopkins,Ciaran Hinds


Plot:
An American seminary student travels to Italy to take an exorcism course.

Personal Review:
It certainly wasn't the best horror film I've seen.It was ok though...At some points I was frightened because I didn't know what to expect but generally it reminded me a lot of "Illuminati".But of course i liked Illuminati more than that.The only thing I have to state is that I'm tired of watching Anthony Hopkins going crazy.He did it once in Haniball and once again in a movie like Haniball so ok stop it now.He is a good actor but I don't need to watch another scene with him trying to kill.


Cast:
Colin O'Donoghue-Michael  Kovak


Anthony Hopkins-Father Lucas Trevant
Alice Braga-Angeline

Rutger Hauer-Istvan Kovak
