No Ordinary Family (2010)
Not good
I watched a few episodes of this show today, and I wasn't impressed. I mean, It's pretty sad when you have to copy your story concept from a Disney Pixar movie (The Incredibles). I honestly don't see the difference between that, and this show except that the Incredibles was much better. The characters had no chemistry with each other, it was if they were simply reading their lines without putting any emotion or feeling into them.The plot was predictable, and it wasn't interesting at all.The character of Daphne (The daughter) was whiny, dumb and unlikeable. The Mom's character was pretty boring, as well was the other family members. If you have any good taste whatsoever, don't watch this show.
Corpse Bride (2005)
Loved it!
The Corpse Bride is one of those films that are hard to forget, mostly because of the visuals and voice acting talents. The story centers on Victor Van Dort, who accidentally gets himself married to a dead girl named Emily . The problem is, Victor was Previously engaged to Victoria Everglot.
The story blossoms from there, as Victor tries to Convine Emily that they aren't meant to be together.
Tim Burton did an excellent job with this film. The characters are very likable and seem to come alive with the Help of actors,Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, and Emily Watson. The ending, though a bit sad was done beautifully and I will always remember it.
It doesn't matter who you are, this film can move you to tears, and still be a nicely scary Halloween movie.
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
I wanted to like this movie.....
I'll start by saying that I think Tim Burton is a genius, and maybe my Expectations for this film were a little high when I went to watch it. I'm sorry, but I just did not like this film. It was creepy and eerie, and the creatures in the opening scene disgusted me. I'm surprised that Disney would produce a film with such bizarre and horribly deformed creatures. The plot was interesting, and the characters were nicely done. But everything else was just to weird for my tastes. If your a person who enjoys a bizarre movie every now and then, watch this film. If you have have small children who are easily scared, then stay away from this movie.
I realize that this is a Halloween movie, and it was meant to be scary, but I think the directors overdid it. I will not be watching this film again.
The Three Musketeers (2011)
A somewhat cheesy, yet colorful movie
I am sort of torn about this movie. It would have been so much better if the directors hadn't made it into a Pirates of The Caribbean wanna-be. There were parts in the film that were done wonderfully, and others were just plain cheesy. The Worst actor of the whole bunch was Orlando Bloom in my opinion,mostly because his performance was overdone, forced, and totally unbelievable.Also, his hair and wardrobe reminded me of a clown, as did some of the other clothes in worn by the nobility. The main character was likable enough. Stupid. but likable.However his chemistry with Constance was practically nonexistent, making the romance scenes a bit awkward.
Although their characters were a bit underdeveloped,The other three musketeers (I don't remember their names)were colorful enough to keep you watching.
If you were looking for a remake of the original Three Musketeers, then don't watch this. It is nothing like the book and The producers should have titled this, The Four musketeers since there are, of Course four of them.
If you were looking for something similar to Pirates of the Carribbean, Then this is your film. The music, the characters, and even bits of the plot are very similar to it.
All in all, this was a cheesy, yet colorful movie, and if your looking for mindless entertainment, then by all means, watch this. But don't watch it expecting it to be the best film of 2011, because unfortunately, its not.
Love Takes Wing (2009)
It's okay...
Before I begin, I'll say that I have always been a fan of Jeanette Oak and her work. I am not however, a fan of Hallmark channel movies.(I've always thought them to be too predictable and repetitive)The Love comes Softly series is no different, except for the fact that it is set in the 1800's. The constant playing of dramatic music is irritating and the acting is far too modern for a western movie.And to be honest, it doesn't stray far from the other Love Comes Softly movies. Girl meets boy, they fall in love and get married, then have a child who repeats the same thing in the next movie. I'll admit that the plot is intriguing enough to keep you watching,and if your looking for a good family film, then this is for you.All in all this movie is your typical, feel good, western-love story.If thats your cup of tea then you will enjoy this, otherwise don't watch it.
