Review: Nightmare before christmas

10/31/2015

Jack Skellington, king of Halloween Town, discovers Christmas Town, but doesn't quite understand the concept.

This is more of a Christmas movie than it is Halloween.I know it's based in a Halloween world and around Jack Skellington but he wan't to change his holiday to Christmas.I understand why he would want to change it but why did he actually do it?He should have known things would go wrong or that he would miss Halloween.Also why is he so tall?He seems to tall for a skeleton.I like Zero the ghost dog but where are the other ghosties?The dog wouldn't be the only ghost in the Halloween world.There would be a lot more monsters in that world.Also Victor Frankenstein wasn't a monster he only built one.I never liked Oogie Boogie.I think he's the worst villain.I am kind of glad they didn't make a second one though because I feel like it would be the same concept but a different holiday and the outcome would be the same.Except without Oogie Boogie. What holiday would he steal next anyway?Easter?Thanksgiving?Independence Day?They should have added more more Halloween to it.It's supposed to be a mixed movie but it's too Christmasy.

Review: Legally blonde:The Musical

10/25/2015

Legally Blonde: The Musical tells the story of Delta Nu Sorority Sister Elle Woods, and her amazing trip in pursuit of sexy man Warner Huntington III. Along the way she meets friends Emmett, Paulette, and all her Delta Nus see her through.

I really like watching this. I use to watch it everyday before school along with Buffy. It was one of my favorite thins to watch especially when it came to the Bend and Snap. That was my favorite song. I would have loved to see it on Broadway. It's seems very closely done to the movie but different. Either way Emmett is way better than Warner. Warner is a big jerk an he deserves not to have a girlfriend. Who takes someone on a date,acts like they are gonna propose and then dump them? Then later has another girlfriend?That's just messed up.Just because she wasn't a lawyer type person Warner dumped Elle. I find that insane.It makes me wonder if he only did it to be like his brother who married a Vanderbilt. I guess the joke is on him since he doesn't get a job as a lawyer anyway. My favorite in the play are Elle, Paulette, Sirena, Margo, Belar,and Kyle. I really like the Irish dancing they add into it. It looks fun. All that jump roping would be so tiring how are they even singing while jumping? Brooke has got some skills.They mad her and the back ups jump 600 times every morning at 10am. I bet they are wizards or robots if they aren't tired after that.Plus they would have to do it on the stage too.

Review: Pan

10/18/2015

12-year-old orphan Peter is spirited away to the magical world of Neverland, where he finds both fun and danger, and ultimately discovers his destiny -- to become the hero who will be forever known as Peter Pan.

This movie was so bad. Do not waste your money. I was really disappointed. Since when is Peter the son of a fairy prince? They also made it seem like Peter is a kidnapper and I do not remember hearing a story about Hook and Peter being best friends. What really annoyed me is at the end when they said Neverland was the second star to the right and they traveled through the left star. If you want a real Peter Pan like story watch Hook. So much better and it's Robin Williams. I thought the acting was pretty bad too. Even with the explosions and special effects this movie was really bad. On my level of good to bad it is on the level with the Croods and I hated that movie. Tiger Lily doesn't even look like she belongs in an indian tribe. I also didn't like that Hook liked her figuring he kidnaps her in the real story of Peter Pan. I didn't even find the movie entertaining. I can't even describe in more words how bad it truly was . I think they have ruined Peter Pan. I you have seen this movie and liked it then go watch Hook and then decide.

review: The intern

70-year-old widower Ben Whittaker has discovered that retirement isn't all it's cracked up to be. Seizing an opportunity to get back in the game, he becomes a senior intern at an online fashion site, founded and run by Jules Ostin.

I really enjoyed this movie.I liked Anne Hathaway and Jojo Kushner was adorable in this movie.She was good for it to be her first movie.I liked that Ben did everything to make his boss happy including taking her daughter to a birthday party.When they broke into her mother's house I so thought they were getting caught.The cops would have been there a lot quicker than they made it.I believe that if that was real life they would have been caught by the cops.I also liked That Jules and Ben became friends.Jules didn't seem like a person to make friends at first. Her husband was kind of a jerk for cheating on her though. Especially when they have a daughter.I did not expect that.I felt like Adam DeVine's character had almost the same personality as his character from Pitch Perfect,Bumper.I think the cast worked well together. Although what are the chances that his old office is her new office?That the phone book factory was turned into her new online fashion site hq?I kind of saw that happening but I'm sure that's a really low chance of her building being the building that he worked in for 40 years.

A teenager teams up with the daughter of young adult horror author R.L. Stine after the writer's imaginary demons are set free on the town of Greendale, Maryland.

I liked this movie.I thought Jack Black was really creepy when he had to be but I think he did good in the movie.I did not think the movie would be good since they added every single monster that he made to it.I thought it would be too much.I thought Dylan did good in this movie as Zach.I did find some things predictable like the zombies and the graveyard. Graveyards do not belong between a grocery store and a school. I think the creepiest creatures are Slappy the dummy,the clown,the knife throwing gnomes,and the giant bug.My favorite was the invisible boy.He made me laugh.This should be a lesson to never open locked things.Something like this might happen.I know it can't actually happen but things are usually locked for a reason.I'm surprised ll the monsters let the dummy take charge instead of fighting over who got to be in charge.None of them were upset that they were being told what to do.I bet in real life they would all be arguing about who got to give the orders.I thought there was only gonna be one plot twist but there was two of them.I kind of thought it was cool.

review: The Martian

During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet. With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive.

This was really good.I think it would be cool to be on Mars.Mark Watney was really smart to figure out a way to survive. I would have tried but wouldn't have known any of that would have saved my life.I liked Sean Bean and Matt Damon in the movie.I like both of them as actors.I wonder how long he was up there.Space time can be so confusing and a lot different than Earth time.Even if he had died,why wouldn't they have taken him back for a funeral?They left him there.I thought it was even meaner for Nasa to not tell his crew that he was alive until they contacted him.They made them believe he was still dead which is unfair. I wonder if he missed being on Mars though.I probably would.I mean at first being there would be scary but if you've been there so long I would probably miss it.I really liked the Iron Man reference in it.That was kind of funny.How did he survive with help being 140 million miles away?How did he plan that out just so he could survive long enough for the crew to find him?I feel like all that work would need to be spread out somehow for that to have worked.

Review: Hotel Transylvania 2

Dracula and his friends try to bring out the monster in his half human, half vampire grandson in order to keep Mavis from leaving the hotel.

I thought the movie was really cute.Dennis was adorable. They even gave him a little girlfriend.Dennis and Winnie were so cute together.I think it was as good as the first one.I really liked when Mavis visited California.She was jumping all over the place and so full of energy. I thought there was more adventure in it than the first one.Dennis saying Blah blah blah was so cute.He was kind of growing up fast and just curious but shouldn't the wolf pups have been a bit older two?I'm pretty sure they age quicker than humans do.Also I don't think vampires can even look old so Vlad probably would have looked younger .I wonder if they are gonna make a movie about Dennis being older.I wonder what would happen if he was older.Would his story be similar or different and more complex?

A teenager discovers he's the descendant of a Greek god and sets out on an adventure to settle an on-going battle between the gods.

I love Percy Jackson and Greek myths.They did leave out a lot of good parts from the books but I still like it. I know he's evil but I really like Luke Castellan.I like Chiron in this movie way better than the one they used in the second movie.I liked the cast.I really liked Medusa.She was a bit creepy but made it work.I also really loved Rosario Dawson as Persephone.I do kind of want to know how they would pull off the other stuff if they had added it to the movie.Like the Chimera and the fight against Ares or even if they had added Cerberus.I liked Zeus and Poseidon.Poseidon is my favorite Greek god.I love this series and I wish they would continue the movies.I was really excited for the new characters like Thalia,Nico,Bianca,and Rachel.I also wanted to see how the Battle of Manhattan would play out and now it's not gonna happen.I want more Percy.I really dislike when movie series are left in cliff hangers.You already started it so why not finish it?
