Movie Review – Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
—
Review Coming soon. Grade: B About The Peetimes: I’ve got several excellent Peetimes, none of which will make you miss the main plotline.

Movie Review – OnWard
—
OnWard is just another average Pixar movie. Average for Pixar; better than most anything else. The trailer reveals the gist of the story, but the central theme is left out. I won’t ruin it for you here by saying what it is, but it has the Pixar magic. What Pixar does consistently– and better than…

Movie Review – Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters
—
I must admit, I enjoyed Percy Jackson much more than I expected. It isn’t the sort of movie that will win any awards — however, the craftsmanship was first rate. It’s a good story that is well paced throughout. In fact, I found myself getting lost in the story, which isn’t very common since I’m…

—
Parental Guidance was the perfect choice for a Christmas Day movie. Of course I had to see it for work but since it was Christmas I took my husband and daughter to see it with me. My husband and I are going to be grandparents any day now so this was a super fitting movie.…
