Children’s Book Review – Bunnicula
I’ve been doing a little light yoga reading routine each morning. I put my legs in the air for 10 minutes, before I even get out of bed, to take me from sleepy to wakey in a gentler fashion. Hey, it’s Doctor Approved! I decided to take this daily time to read through some kiddie…

Movie Rewatch Review – Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
My favorite of all the Harry Potter films — and books for that matter — this is just an A+ good time. If you like a quest-type adventure story, Goblet of Fire is a fine addition to the ranks of high fantasy. Unfortunately, I can’t speak for how well this tale holds together if you…

Movie Review – Soul (Pixar and Disney get it right, again)
โ
Soulย is one of those films where you see a still or a short clip and you think โAha! A childrenโs film; something to keep the little crotch goblins quiet for a bit.โ Then you notice the Disney and Pixar names plastered all over it and, thatโs itโฆ itโs a kidโs film. But then something starts…

First Time Movie Review – Jingle All The Way
โ
Jingle All The Wayย is, most definitely, a Christmas film. I know thatโs obvious but, with all the โis it or isnโt itโ arguments and articles doing the rounds, I thought Iโd better make sure everyoneโs aware that Iโm aware what Iโm talking aboutโฆ for a change! So whatโs it about? In short, itโs about Howard…

First View Movie Review – The Muppet Christmas Carol
Maybe itโs a generational thing. I was starting college for the first time whenย The Muppet Showย was first aired. Iโve never seen Sesame Street. Well, not more than the odd clip on TV; enough to be aware of some of the history of the beasts. Throw into the mix the absence of children to have to…

Rewatch Review – The Nightmare Before Christmas
โ
Full disclosureโฆ I am a big Tim Burton fan.ย Iโve seen and enjoyed all of his films. Yesโฆ even hisย Planet Of The Apes! And the thing is that you tend to think of him as a live action director, albeit with an eye for the more cartoonish aspects of life.ย So, is that why he…

Rewatch Reviews – Arthur Christmas
โ
First off, I LOVEย Arthur Christmas! It is funny, entertaining, and endlessly re-watchable. The talent on display is awesome and the attention to detail is breathtaking. There are so many little things that you either see for the first time when you watch it, or can point out to other people who havenโt spotted it. Itโs…

A US Classic From A UK Perspective – A Christmas Story
A little backgroundโฆ At the start of the decade a change in circumstances meant I had a lot of spare time during the run up to Christmas. So what was I going to do? What I did was got hold of a load of Christmas films and thoroughly got into the spirit of the season.…

Movie Review – The Croods 2
This is definitely a young kids movie. There’s lots of super saturated bright colors and silly cartoon antics that the characters almost constantly go through. In that light most young kids will probably like it. However, I wonder if they’ll like it anymore than just watching any old cartoon movie again for the 12th time…

Indie Movie Review – Emily and the Magical Journey
I have to admit to feeling a bit like Groucho Marx over this filmโฆ โWhy, a four-year-old child could understand this report. Run out and find me a four-year-old child. I can’t make head nor tail out of it.โ Itโs a family film aimed at feisty, imaginative young girls, and I am far from being…
