Maxine's Baby: The Tyler Perry Story (2023)
Probing and Insightful!
Hearing how young Tyler was brutalized was heartbreaking. The whole time I wished his stepfather would apologize, but when the nephew tried to visit the man and he cursed him and closed the gate on him, I knew that man was evil and didn't have it in him to show compassion. If one message was clear, that was how much he loved his mother. I wondered why we didn't get to meet any of Tyler's siblings and what type of relationship he has with them. Another thing I observed was that his mean stepfather lived in a nice home, while the aunt who clearly loves him doesn't. He said he supports his family but the documentary only indicated support to his stepfather, who don't even deserve it! It was disappointing that we didn't get to meet Ahmad, his son. It was weird how they hid his identity through the entire documentary. I recommend watching!
The Little Mermaid (2023)
We loved this movie!
This movie did not disappoint. It had great graphics and cinematography, the story brought out all the emotions sadness, joy and laughter. Halle Bailey was a perfect choice for this remake. She is young, so beautiful and talented. We never took our eyes off the screen!!! Our four year old who had only been to the movies once before, was mesmerized by the real look of the mermaid tail swimming through the ocean. Halle's soft voice and vocals really sounded like what one would imagine a mermaid would sound like. All of the characters were believable and the actors did an exceptional job bringing the storybook to life!
