Starring …………….. Tami Stronach , Noah Hathaway and Barret Oliver


Director…………. Wolfgang Petersen



Synopsis



A trouble boy dives into a wondrous fantasy world though the pages of a mysterious book.



Warning spoilers ahead



My Review



Back years ago I did this review but figure this classic needs a re review of a great 80’s movie called the Neverending story which is book as well so figure I will rewatch and see if I miss anything this is why I miss last week review because I needed a little more time to write this one so let great started on this great classic movie which I am watching years and years ago.



The movie starts with amazing intro with music and look to be a dream just amazing you don’t see that much for movie now do you then bastion wakes up it was indeed a dream nice one though for as bastian wakes up after that talks to father played Gerald McRaney who been in many roles they pick right guy for father role even though it was short role he was a great father figure character that for sure.


After that it goes too where he being bullying not cool in my view but this way story starts anyway I think I see kids in the goonies movie maybe? They put him in trash he gets out but they go after him and he hides in book store he meets a old man then see book the neverending ending story the old man tells him about the book how does he know about book being magic unsure maybe he has something to do with book or part of it maybe sort of mystery on who old guy was maybe 1 day when I read the real book it will tell me anyway kid takes the book some say he stole it but nope.



The book was so important he even skip class funny not one teacher notice or anyone see him go in closet or attic something anyway this where story starts with eerie creatures and even a big guy name rock man huge rock and other characters have a snail then we get name rock fighter does that means he fights rocks lol the other person is night hawk and they are talking about land disappearing bye main villain of movie the nothing weird villain but fun it pretty turns everything into nothing what cause is a ? Mark so the crew go on a little trip to see child Empress then they see her castle it is indeed beautiful indeed 80’s style made even the music in back ground made that look along with camera angles so good then after we meet atreyu a brave warrior he giving a powerful necklace as well so he must go on a quest to find out how to stop the nothing so where does he go well into swamp of sadness I hate this part of movie I don’t like the horse gives up and sadness swamp gets him but not atreyu he on his own he try to answers from another weird looking creature but he does say to travel a lot of miles you think there is quest will end and sadness of swamp almost got him lucky Falkor the luck dragon save him from eating bye wolf Falkor is best dragon in my view he one I would like have if you go on a quest he wakes up and makes a new friend along with other people as well the women voice sounds like the same actress who was In Willow I wonder hmm so old funny guy who fights with his wife funny how them 2 fight anyway it picks up as he must pass 2 gates to get too the gate that could help him out but he must be careful gate number 1 is smart and both can kill you fast he did make it he was lucky though.



Now on to magic mirror gate which is found out truth on who you like kind of evil that image of yourself shows up and your true Identity is this where it gets odd atreyu as he see bastion in mirror see Atreyu and him are same it does make sense because both share the same emotions as well like when it time to eat but eat at same time and when horse died both was sad so they are connect and this mirror shows truth on who you are it not as bad as old guy says so after see that Bastion flips out for a min but then goes back to story.



The last gate tell him the child like empire needs a new name but not bye him but by a human child hint hint guess that where I think I know where story going this movie has a good build up as well that how so where has atreyu landed where painting on walls show what he been though and then evil wolf is waiting just as killed the wolf the nothing is destroyed everything this was last one as well now there nothing left but ivory tower still stands there and once again some of best shots with camera indeed and soundtrack makes that special so child like empire and she said he not failed and he brought human child yep it was bastion so this was his story interesting so dreams he dream was from this book guess this was his story after all so only way to save them is giving her a new name and he does only them 2 are left but where heck are they look to be nothing anyway he can have any wish he wants now.


So what his first wish riding on luck dragon Falkor and also you see everybody back even horse see he not dead after all a happy ending for Fantasia anyway how did the movie end let say with a little revenge from start of movie that was funny just a great movie this was.



Well no doubt I love this movie it is one of best movies made based on book as well lots of fun good effects great acting this felt like it was real was not acting felt like it was in my view there still a lot of questions I have I do have the book now so maybe will find out there when I read it this movie came out when I was a kid back in days I still have vhs somewhere I think it is a fun movie to watch for years I been watching it and I was happy got to review this one again.



The neverending story (1984) rating 8/10

Porky’s II: The Next Day (1983) movie review

Starring…………. Dan Monahan, Wyatt Knight and Roger Wilson



Director………. Bob Clark



Synopsis


The wild teens of Angel Beach High take revenge on religious KkK bigots who target their school play for casting an indigenous teen in a play



Warning spoilers ahead



My review


Number 2 of the porky’s movies series didn’t know they had a number 2 so figure will review this but will this be better then first movie Is question so let’s see.



Movie starts off with a little highlight from number 1 and title of porky’s 2 after a nice intro goes to one of character trying to get morning wood funny way to start I was hoping the coach from first movie is back I mean they have to bring her back she was most funny character of first movie that I see that is for sure after watching for 15 mins does not look like they got her back for 2 here which is a shame so will be tough to move but let’s see how they do look like Charlie has his eyes on a new girl Kate her name is.


This might be tough to do what is storyline for part 2 because you don’t want to go same way as first one must have something different like make still funny after watching first 30 mins see some jokes that are funny some but not out of this world yet hopefully it will but there one moment where guy dress up as girl in a play look like that was little funny but silly this also seem to be water down as less crazy so far here less nudity it is feeling like a tv movie way it showing less nudity and sex jokes as well.


There is a weird part when they go to grave and odd stuff with women die think this was joke on pee wee think that what they call him think it was funny a little bit but silly but do think the guy dress up as dead is funny as well.


So how was the last 15 mins of movie go well ending with huge jokes at dinner party and stuff nothing too funny well sort of but not sure what heck they are doing though it was a ok ending for a alright movie.



There some funny spots but not as funny as first one was this was can of low on comedy some and little bit boring as well even if it try to be funny did some but not as in no way this near classic first movie in my view will say it was ok now there is a 3nd one which I may review sometime but not soon is all I got to say.



Porky’s II the next day (1983) rating 6/10

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) movie review

Starring……….. Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor Joy and Charlie Day


Director…………. Matthew Fogel



Synopsis



A plumber name Mario Travels though an underground Labyrinth with his brother Lugi, trying to save a captured princess.



Spoilers ahead warning



My Review



Well after see this have to say as fan of game have to say this was very well done and first was worried they would mess it but from start to finish it was great story was good on how they build brothers from losers to hero’s slowing it was great story also like how when they got Mario land and Lugi was lost Mario meet princess peach and ask for her help meeting at first was something but after talking her into she said she help then after that.



Comes training part where you had to master a maze of traps that was from the game like traps you go though was good princess nailed it at 100% at first almost like she know what she doing Mario took a little bit to get right but he got it after some try’s after that battle between home and Kong was good he use power up to beat as kong agrees to join them at first them two didn’t be friends unit the end though which was funny some as well.


Browser was sort of funny they made him a comedy character do I think that was little too much no problem Jack black did a good job as voiceover on as him cgi did look great lots of Easter eggs with them driving carts sort of reminds me of Mario cart game also like how roads was in sky it almost like video game fight at end there good battle with bowser there at end like how they beat him by grabbing magic power let say the ending was great in the end it was great.



After it was over I said wow what a movie it was one best super mario bros yet and you should see it if your Mario fan as well. That all for this Labor Day movie review I will have the neverending story movie review up Saturday so unit then have a good rest of your Labor Day.



Super Mario Bros. (2023) rating 7.5/10

In time (2011) movie review

Starring……………….. Justin Timberlake , Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy



Director………… Andrew Niccol who also write this movie.



Synopsis


In the future where people stop aging at 25, but are engineered to live only one more year, having the means to buy your way out of the situation is a shot at immortal youth. Will Salas is accused of murder and the run with a hostage.



Spoilers ahead warning




My Review



Never heard of this movie so will see if bad or good so let review start also movie stars Justin Timberlake as well that should be something to see movie starts off with his character mom who look young remember you only live unit your 25 they could least push up 60 or 65 for age that what I think so how do they know how much time they left well they have a countdown on there arm which is good for checking into places only 7 mins allready thinking this movie maybe weird I mean with the whole 25 age limit sounds silly but still might be good though also I worder how much you pay to buy more time to live that should be interesting what also he is framed for murder so he have to make a run for it as well later on mom time run and she dies at young at of well 25 so I wonder if this how he framed as well also I guess if you want kids have them at young 25 age is limit too after his mom death he will now be fighting against the rules.



So far 26 mins Am I finding this a little bit boring nothing happen yet but maybe story will get better and action will pick up some also a women with short hair has her on eye him well maybe she now be a important character to the movie.


Also again it is weird see everyone so very young having daughters and son but again age limit Is 25 so you have to pick the right time young age again the plot of this movie is very odd but will find interesting as well.


Interesting how life spare on this movie is going to by time you must hurry to boot time up on it if not and it runs to 0 your dead so race is on for Justin character to stay alive and Hide from the police who are looking for him.



So far just see that still slow after a hour and still some what boring a little bit acting is ok not best though there is one cool part where they drive truck though the bank of time and everyone gets a free life boost thanks too them .



They search for 1 million year life spare and find it now question is how will keep it safe from bad guys who also looking for it as well so they give huge life spare to everyone who needs it good move in the end the bad guy let say run of time it was close but lucky to get more time and it ending well ok ending where they are going after more big banks that could of lead to number 2 I think but this movie was not good enough for another one.



Well have to say needed more action the story was good start but as movie keep roll on it was a little weird too me as well otherwise the acting was ok with Justin and Amanda Seyfried yep that her in short hair hard to tell that her though characters ok but they needed a little more to make Justin a true hero did not see much of that so would I watch in time again maybe not too sure it was in the end will say ok also one more thing they could of least give us a nice fight then bad guy running out time fast that was letdown let’s say




In Time (2011) rating 5/10

Director………….. Gary Ross



Synopsis



Two 1990s teenage siblings find themselves transported to a 1950s sitcom where their influence begins to profoundly change that colorless, complacent world.



Warning spoilers ahead



My review


Well after two teens fight over remote it broken then Don knotts show up nice to see him anyway he brings them a new one a magic remote with 1 press of button can take you anywhere so is he a wizard or something not sure any teens played by tobey maguire and Reese Witherspoon who was good in this playing there characters so after fighting again they somehow worder up in tv show Pleasantville seem like they are stuck as Don knotts get mad at them and leave them there for a little while so they are stuck in a tv show so things pick up as they start connecting with folks of Pleasantville like teaching them things from there world like cough sex which they never heard off how heck have you not figure that out I thought that odd so girl teaches them to make out and then they Slowy start changing color pretty much that whole film which I thought was good the ending did pick up as soon as people got mad about changing to full color but a nice speech changing there views so now do they get back only teen boy gets back as teen girl stays there as soon he gets back he has a nice talk with there mom and what odd she did not ask where his sister at could of least added that but it ending let say a colorful way and ok as well.



Well have to say not a bad movie not best movie the acting was great will say but story was ok little weird but in the end still liked this would I watch this again probably anyway happy cornfest another one here in my hometown and figure to release this early for today so have a great day and rest of your weekend.

My review


I figured I do this one for review on my birthday was going to review new Ghostbusters but needed a little more time on that so going with this a Tom hanks and Meg Ryan classic not sure if I see this or not but anyway see it so here is my review you’ve got mail from 1998.



So how does this movie start with computer stuff with title you got mail pretty cool intro there it like a model of city in computer cgi stuff then it goes from that to real life intro is little bit long but not too bad as well then we see Meg Ryan her character name is Kathleen and look like she talking to a guy on computer this was 90’s so internet was aol man or man how internet has changed so pretty much start off two people sending mail too each other day here the catch both live in same city as well so opening so them walking by each other tom hanks character name is Joe so Joe and Kathleen she works at store as Joe works for a head of company who own by his father.



They both seem fun people as Joe is good with kids and Kathleen is good with kids as well telling story to them in book store Joe and kids go in so is this where they will meet for first little did they know they are sending mail too each other yep they do meet now question when do they start falling in love but there maybe trouble ahead as another book store is opening and guess who works for that store Joe and this book store is biggest as well so before they fall in love they may feud with each other.



The book store is taking her down a lot so Joe Is trying to help her by chating with her online this is good movie on so far 45 mins in so far. Not have fall in love in fact she attacking Joe now well joe did her to do it so blame on him funny wait unit them two find out truth well they made a date on too meet and Joe finds out it Kathleen first so how do things go he does go in well things don’t go too well at all between them at all she still does not know he the guy yet and thinks guy she was meeting did not show boy she will be in for a huge surprise lol.


Her friends think he a killer in newspaper that odd no way she bye that at all so after there fight Joe is not sending her anything he mad 😠 at her he needs to get over it and tell her truth but he makes up story at first try too send it but could not pretty much so far they are doing a good job building up this one Tom hanks and Meg Ryan acting been great in this one as well great acting.



Joe gets stuck in elevator for a while after that goes to book store of Kathleen is closing which is sad look like Joe win but later on after a talk with his father he felt sorry so he goes to visit her they talk and he says words from mail I think she slowing figure out but she still does not know come on it is Joe still they doing a good job on building up just as thought big reveal comes at the end because there only ten mins left so he set up a date to meet her on Saturday so she goes to meet and well she figure out it was Joe as movie ends with song over the rainbow not sing by judy but still a nice version of it and it ends with them kissing a beautiful ending to a great movie.



Very good the acting and story was great tom hanks and Meg Ryan performance in this one was great best moment was at the end building up was great to the ending a good romantic movie this proves that two people can fall in love just by e-mail as well that it my for this birthday movie thanks for all birthdays wishes on SoCal media so far birthday going well and was happy to review this one on my birthday thanks again and have a good night.



You’ve got mail rating 7.5/10

Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam (1985) movie review

Starring……….. Jim Varney , Glen Petach



Director…………. John Cherry III



Synopsis




Dr. Otto grows a hand of top of his head and tries to destroy the world.




Warning spoilers ahead



My review


Taking a look Ernest first movie or Jim varney this first of Ernest movies series by the way Ernest only appears for 2 mins in which is odd no that not all time jim is in he plays other character including an odd character, Dr. gloom in my a man with hand in back of his head trying to kill the world mistake it Dr. Otto character who mess with people life so he is a god or something not also this movie is weird because it goes to different characters of who jim playing would of been nice to just play a few but I see many movies of Jim he does this good so this start of many movies he does so is this how Ernest comes about as Dr Otto turns into and this how series start that what I was thinking maybe would be a odd way to start off Ernest character though.



After watching this 30 mins not sure where heck it going because again to hop Jim as many characters if you like him in many roles then this movie for that for sure will say his costumes is kind of wacko for his Dr Otto look too me and little weird too me because I see many of Jim movies and never see him as bad guy before that for sure.



So I was worder how will his first movie ending my guess was probably a not good ending or weird ending so does Dr. Otto win or no well still does many characters like to know names his play but so many don’t have time to list him so Dr. Otto seems to be after 2 people here at end again plot of this movie was written odd so never know which this goes at the end well 2 people show up at Dr. Otto house so will final 10 mins end up being a battle or not well he turns into many characters then fights they end up trying to get rid of machine to see if that weaks him or not well Lance press the right button pretty much destroyed Dr. Otto place go up in flames so is that end will Ernest snow up at the end? Yeah, it’s only for two minutes this time but turns out to be a little twist maybe that how it started not sure it ends with him saying know what I mean.



Well I see many of movies have to say this one could have been better would have like to see more then 2 mins of Ernest if this was his first movie what a odd one it was funny some but plot was odd will say it ok movie but bad as well some not all of but some was bad as well just think this was start of many funny movies as well think after this years later came Ernest goes to camp one of his best films yet never thought see him in his first movie he would play bad guy and lots of roles as well it was ok but he could of least trim it down a little on that only problem I had with this one and better plot as well.



Well that it for this weekend review see next Saturday for next one.



Dr. Otto and the riddle of Gloom Bleam (1985) rating 6/10

Starstuck (1982) movie review

Starring…………… Joey Kennedy , Ross O’Donovan and Margo Lee



Directed by………….. Gillian Armstrong



Synopsis


A teenage girl, with dreams are becoming a famous singer tries to secure a a spot on the local TV talent show..



Warning spoilers ahead



My review


After watching this have to say it not a bad movie with lots of color hair that 80’s for you indeed that for sure story is about a teenage girl try to be famous after watching first 10 mins it pretty much is a story also I think this was filmed in Australia back in the 80s. I can tell it sounds like an Australian movie like type which Is not bad also songs are interesting as you get deep in the movie does it still hold on and be good let sort of music starts picking up and will she get her big break or not is question.



Well have to say last 31 mins was not bad look like she was trying to get on stage maybe they turn her down but she would not give up and try to get on big stage that could take to places she never been too well as she was by the way character name is Jackie well have to say it was ok her brother who I think that is got laid as she singing on stage with song Starstuck and it ended in weird way let say but it was not best movie I say story was little confusing.


While I didn’t mind acting Jo Kennedy was good she got a great voice and must say after watching this it did feel like 80’s with costumes and hairstyle and hair color. By the way, I must say most of the music was pretty good but again the story was confusing. I mean it started off good for the story, but then once she got towards the end, it kind of went down a little bit to me so I had no clue where it was going so did I enjoy it will say yes it was fun watching it but will say interesting could of they end it in a better way thought the ending was silly a little yes but funny.



So will say was this comedy movie or musical both in my view so Is worth checking out full movie Is on YouTube but make sure you put year 1982 if not will come up with tv series and not movie as for now have a good rest of your weekend and sure next Saturday will have another review up.

Black Adam (2022) movie review

Starring ………..Dwayne Johnson, Aldis Hodge and Pierce Brosnan


Director……………. Jaume Collet - Serra



Synopsis


After 5,000 years in prison, Black Adam is free- however, a team known as Justice Society looks to return him to eternal captivity.




Spoilers ahead warning



My Review



Time for another new one a movie starring the rock aka Dwayne Johnson this week review is called Black Adam from 2022.



Movie starts off in year 2600 telling story of evil crown not a bad start because I have not one clue what this movie will be like all I know is a familer face is in it I think though young boy at that start is character black Adam seem to be powerful now they hop to future after story of black Adam now a group maybe looking for that crown why my guess probably will make rich or is from one of group past not sure yet if Dwayne is playing a good guy or bad guy guess I found out her in a bit.



She finds the crown but might too late bad guys was there as a attack then she unleash him yep black Adam look to be very powerful as well what a opening there good effects look like he a god type character with them powers lots of kick ass to start it can of look like as well he is a good guy he did save them from missile from bad guys but they may think he too powerful to be free in this world so they may have to find Justice society and they show them show up.



Meanwhile black Adam wakes up in a house where he has no memory where heck he is he meets woman that awake him and said I have no business being here so he leaves crash though walls least he could use door but he from past where they did not use door much lol.



Back to Justice society where they planning on finding black Adam then hawkman is showing then dr fate is shown as well they should not be fighting against each other but they think he a big threat so let them fight I guess but good luck he more powerful then Justice Society they do throw everything at him when heck of a battle that was pretty good action in this one for now black Adam is gone for now but later the one free him try to tell him he is a hero but he thinks not so Justice society try to talk to him they sort of get along a little but still lots to iron out.



Well almost a hour In and a hour left of movie have to say good action fights scenes so far acting is pretty so far surprised to see pierce Brosnan in this one as dr fate very cool so far he fits role very good and Dwayne so far has been good as black Adam character as well so pretty good on acting and effects story is ok little confused if they after black Adam or keeping crown Again think it crown that they need keep out of bad guy hands.



Then he become a ugly god so now he will be tough to stop justice society try to stop him but dr fate may of got his view of future so he leaves his friends behind and go after demon his self he then awakes black Adam he the only man powerful enough to face this Demon dr fate lost his life but black Adam did show up so final fight will be black Adam vs demon.



Was not a bad fight they used an old trick from dr fate to beat demon at the end good move after that it ending with black Adam accept he is a hero after that went to credits but there a huge bonus credit at the end while this could be great not sure if it lead anywhere though that would be one heck of a team up or battle very interesting is what I say.



As for the movie was not best but it was good Dwayne did a good job in super hero role and effects of fighting was good for battle lots of action as well acting was good as so did I like this one yes it was very good to watch another one of Dwayne movies I have not see many of his movies so was happy to review this one as well so in the end black Adam was a great movie well that it for this review have a great rest of your weekend.



Black Adam (2022) rating 7/10

The ruby ring (1997) Movie Review

Starring………. Emily Hamilton, Emma Cunniffle, Patricia Ross



Director………… Harley Cokeliss


Synopsis


Young Lucy McLaughlin’s father had lost his job and to help make ends meet she is sent to live with grandmother. To help her get over loss, the old lady gives Lucy a magic ring which grant her two wishes



Spoilers ahead warning



My review


Before I start this is tv movie and is not on dvd as well so it was not in theaters where did air not sure because it was made in 1997 so will be checking it out to see if this was a classic or not it list under Tubi classics movies.



Movie start off with a teen character name Lucy who not happy with way things are going with her life so on her birthday her grandma gives her a ring ruby that can give you 2 wishes so she wishes for a better life well she got her wish as she is send back in time and Is put in castle as what they think is a maid so her wish came too but not life she wanted dress up working in castle as maid and what worst she lost ring so she if she wants to get back in her time she must find the ring and time not on her side she only has 24 hours to wish to go home or else wish will stuck forever and she trapped in time.



The plot of story is pretty much her trying to find the ring that silp off her finger in castle when she arrive in that time and castle arrive she does find the ring but others do as well thinking she steal it so they keep it away from here and well be rude to her now she must find a way to get though that and get ring back before thieves do little be chessy but acting did hold up some as well in this and sort of adventure movie as well with race again time to get back ruby ring that gives you wishes what kind of wishes maybe money would it turn you evil if you wish’s for it maybe but right now it look like it send you too anytime you want with that 1 catch as well.



Also there is some romance as well she does fall in love with a guy though sort of know they throw that in but that ok because would be interesting to see how that plays out though if he buys her story or not she try to tell anyone but no one believes it unit close to end though and helps her out.



So was there anything mind blowing at end any well after returning she goes to visit castle and finds a painting that look like her and she meets what May of been great grandson of guy she fall in love with after that not much with just a walk to castle with sun set at end not a bad ending but would of like something more there.



As for movie it was good did like it acting was pretty good story a little bit chessy but that ok should of added that one of person that she work with was a family member or something that would of been cool but ending on who lived in castle in her time was ok maybe she fall in love him they did not say pretty much that hint there at end though not a bad way to end it. So is the Ruby Ring worth your time to watch yes I would right now it on YouTube. Tubi so you have many chances to see if you like there a little bit of drama in it but not bad as well.



That it for this weekend review see you next Saturday for next review.



The Ruby Ring (1997) rating 7/10

Teen witch (1989) movie re- review

Starring………… Robyn Lively, Dan Gauthier and Joshua John miller



Director……….. Dorian Walker



Synopsis


High school misfit Louise, at a loss for romance, discovers magical abilities, but teenage witch finds that she can’t conjure herself true love , so what?



Spoilers ahead warning



My review


Doing a re- review from 2013 I did for teen witch and see if I can find anything more good but trust me will not be easy that for sure.



This silly movie starts with a dream moment between Louise dream about hot guy name Brad I think character if I remember right this drag on for about almost 4 mins wow what a long dream but then she wakes up and her brother eating chocolate under bed what point of that not sure so allready 5 mins still haven’t found anything new that I miss yet that is not a bad start just when you thought it a dream Brad is real the boy in her dreams.



Well looking into this movie she is Bully a little her teacher is total jacksss then it goes to a silly song where girls sing I like boys it is a bad song with bad singing as well this drag on for bit unit coach stops them thank god enough of that my head hurts a little after that.


Then movie drags again with Louise drools if you like him then just go tell him then having put us though this in first 15 mins of movie well then she almost gets run over by Brad at night yes this movie has odd times school is in daytime and her riding home in dark did she got lost unfortunately they never told us can off odd though.



She goes to a psychic who said she get powers on her 16th birthday after that it goes to teacher teaching them about sex ok that pointless as well.


Then later she finds necklace that could start her magic powers popular girls invite her to hang out with them yeah right they hook her up with one of girls cousin who is a goofball then whole at dance she wishes Brad will talk to her and it happens for a few mins.



1 hour left and I have found much new that I miss still the same same will say effects are ok but it just plot is still silly effects are sort of cool will say a little bit.


1 half was not bad and just when it was started to get good with her powers this was start of downfall this where drama with Brad starts where she try and try to put love spell on Brad it did not work but before that she gives teacher a little revenge it was funny then mom found the doll and put in wash machine while he goes though car wash lol that was funny and can of pointless as well.



Top that rap was kind of silly as well but least she help out her friend as well after that this where the movie got more and more silly too me she now what a spell to be popular so she must get a jacket of her favorite sing Shana but will it work or not is question she does get by security and Shana gives her Jacket and after that this where start to get silly to me after this moment.



Remember in 2013 review when I review this said this movie put me to sleep this where it start after she become popular and turn on her friend as well Brad drama pick up again after a little kissing for 3 mins after that she starts to question about spells.


Pretty much the whole film from there is her drag herself down she lose a friend as well which is sad her become popular maybe she getting way to much and is become way over too much though.



It did as now she question herself was doing spells worth this pretty much the final 10 mins they could of least give it a short time and put things back to normal and big problem is same thing I say when I review this movie in 2013.



The ending is not bad but things that didn’t make sense at all she never made up with her friend and did she stop magic for good they did not tell us and just ending it like least they happy I guess but would of like a little bit more I feel bad for her friend though.



After rewatch what again is my final take well first half was good with her finding her powers but was she a witch or not they could of least say if this run in family like if her mom was same as her that would of been great story telling  pretty much it was her Brad story which is ok this was 80’s where teen movies like though so in end will say it was not worst I see but will up from ok movie to good so will rating will go up or not is ?



Teen witch (1989) 6/10

Johanna Enlists(restored Edtion (1918) movie review

Starring ……………… Mary Pickford, Dougles MacKearn and Monte Blue



Director…………… William Desmond Taylor



Synopsis


Living a quiet life on isolated farm with family, Johanna’’s dreams of romance come true when an entire army regiment arrives on her doorstep.



Spoilers ahead warning



My review


Figure this week review will be on Mary PickFord movies from back in 1900’s silent films she done a lot so going to take a look of her next film her called Johnna Enlists that is restored so here is my review below.



Movie starts off with a little note about missing parts of film so that why it is only 1 hour 5 mins it happens with old films like this they are lucky to even find this rare footage.



Before I get started I am watching this on Tubi so for anyone want to check it out it is on there Tubi has some of her films not all but a good fair amount they are indeed worth checking out even though some has chessy music.



First 5 mins so how great she was at acting her character is about a quiet women who looking for romance but stuck with children you can tell she wants to get out of this pickle and find someone who will take her in Mary Pickford is very good at romance roles then army come and use her land they payed the family Joanna offers one of them to stay in bed whole she sleeps in a basket isn’t that a little un comfortable hmm not to her I guess also do note there are some still photos to fill in do missing footage this starts to happen at 30 min mark does not bug me at all still amazing they found that being over 100 year movie then at 30 min mark footage returns that good news for now.



Johnna still try to find romance with someone still think she has a eye on one guy but he not into her yet there was a odd moment where she taking a bath and one of guy almost walks in on her good thing she cover up there funny moment I wonder which one she ends up with they all seem to like her and can’t force on anything so they have a meeting to see which one she ends up with the big ending is coming up or else probably end in heartbreak it does end up with 2 guys fighting over her no choice is made yet as they are order to move on now to Germany as movie ends with Mary in her outfit nice tribute there and great ending to a movie.



A very good film from Mary Pickford films as well great story as well for a movie that came out in 1918 as well should review more of her movies sometime soon well that it for this weekend review have a good rest of your weekend.



Johanna Enlists (1918) rating 7/10

My Review


That right another week and another classic movie I am looking forward to review this Saturday I see this in theaters back when I was kid and have see this version for years hopefully this was not disturbing parts are in as Alice in wonderland did so here the review of beauty and the beast.



Movie starts off with a nice view of castle and and story being told this how prince become the beast it was good start now he find the true love to be human again before rose falls or else is doom then it goes to belle again forgot this was musical well have not see this one singing goes on for a few mins or 3 but it pretty good if you want a calm way to start out of classic once she meet beast I am sure it will get dark but anyway prince wants to make Belle his wife not sure if she wants him lol at all he is goofing after that we meet her dad who is scientist after that he takes off to fair but takes a wrong turn and winds up lost look like he lost well he winds up in dark castle and run into beast and is cage after that prince next step to try to get his love is set up a wedding only problem is she said no funny part he get throw in mud after that she see her father horse then she goes to that dark castle trade places with her father now this where story starts as they start off rough he gets mad after she does not want to join him for dinner and he say she only eats when he he does but later Mrs Potts who is voiceover by great Angela Lansbury rest in peace by the way she is wonderful in this movie she does Mrs Potts great in this one as they say song be our guest great classic song too but they better be careful if beast finds out he will be mad Belle goes to check out west wing which is she was told not to go she gets caught and well gets yelled at by beast another fight this time cause her to leave then she attacks by wolfs guess he came in and help her beast he saves her but he got hurt but she did say thank you and he said welcome after that prince is still thinking he married belle dude give up you big goofball.



After that he say her the a huge library of books so he being nice to her for now things are going ok between them for now dance part was very well done as well very beautiful Mrs Potts singing in background but then after see her father in mirror he look sick so beast let her go can of sad for beast though but as soon as she got home the big goofball Gaston still trying to get her he is creepy dude that Gaston the bad news is now Gaston see the beast and goes after him so everyone goes to castle this going to be a big battle here at as it Gaston vs beast here as he try to kill him one heck of fight here man so rude in the end battle Gaston fall to his death he deserves it but he stab him before falling they made it look like all hope was lost she said she loves him and well spell was broken as everyone went back to normal everyone turn human so how does movie end with a dance nice ending to a beautiful classic movie.



Once you watch classic movies they go bye and it was great one as hats off to everyone for the voiceovers only character I did not like was Gaston he was big goofball way too much into Belle there he was also mean happy he got that ending he was nuts and it was great transformation at the end as well great movie I am happy got to re watch and review it best character to me was Mrs Potts she was nice person or tea pot you ever see great character and great family film this is as well so many grow up see this as well something to you could watch for a family night movie indeed nothing disturbing well let say Gaston was a disturbing one because he was way into Belle much but that it nothing bad though about this one.


Well now it back to drawing board on finding next one to review sure I will come up with something to review so unit then have a great rest of your weekend.



Beauty and the beast 1991 rating 8.5/10

Starring…………. Kathryn Beaumont , Ed Wynn and Richard Haydn



Directors……….. Clyde Geronimi , Wildfred Jackson and Hamilton Luske



Synopsis


Alice Stumbles into world of wonderland. Will she get home? Not if the Queen of hearts has her way.


Spoilers ahead warning



My Review


First week of 2 classic movies I grow up watching as a kid no was not born in 1951 but did see this growing up in the 80’s which was my childhood era.



I got this on blu ray and it look pretty cool for an old movie picture look nice and clean look like it came out in this era picture does they did a good job on putting this on blu ray.



Now this one is a lot different then one I did early well yeah that one was short this 1 a little bit longer 1 hour 15 mins so it same story almost but with different characters and the one who voice Alice name is Kathryn Beaumont who does voiceover she is very good also there one part of movie that a little disturbing where oysters get eat up bye walrus and he said they were good did not show it probably would of got lot of complains If they show them being eat up they could of least left that out though.


Anyway after that Alice meets rabbit again he thinks her name is Mary Ann well she goes in his house and some reason grows huge and her legs come out out of house that goes on for a good time unit she gets small again after that meets the rose she was very nice to Alice then started singing a song called golden afternoon they should of had a sing along for this classic as well on blu ray they were nice to her for a bit then kick her out after calling her a weed after that she meets Caterpillar in form of letters there talk ends as his changes his self into a butterfly but does give 1 huge tip to get big again so she takes that advice and gets big again not long eats the other side and gets small but then lick mushroom and gets to her Normal size then after the famous goofing Cheshire Cat one of favorite characters he is one funny cat and also mysterious as well he comes and go anytime too you never know when he shows up and leaves I find that character very interesting as well he helps her out some but quote his said is this we’re all mad here. I’m mad your’re mad nice quote after he goes away Alice goes to mad hatter tea party which was silly in my view but funny after that she wants to go home but how is question look like she lost in woods then she cry for about 5 mins unit Cheshire Cat shows up again and tell her to go meet queen before she runs into some one painting the roses red and she joins in as in painting them red this later upset the queen but she then later ask Alice to play a game of croquet or something what a mood change if she don’t she lose her head the queen says that a lot as well just as game is getting good the Cheshire Cat show up and pull up queen dress embarrassing her but then he disappeared very fast after that they go trial over that can of silly but I guess as movie Is getting close to end most of all characters she meet early show up the mad hatter as well then Alice grows huge again and then small then queen says off with her head and then they go after Alice then she heads back to door and then wakes up with both of them leaving for a tea a nice ending.



A very good Alice in wonderland movie from 1951 a few things was little disturbing like oysters getting up a little but otherwise every thing was good pretty good characters as well so happy got to see this movie again here tonight and get review this one next week will be another classic review with another movie I see in theaters as well it is like this but different so looking forward to review that movie find out what it is next week unit then have a good rest of your night.

Alice’s Adventues in wonderland (1910) short film review


Starring…….: Gladys Hulette and Yale Boss


Edwin S. Porter - Directed by


Synopsis


Film” Alice’s adventures in Wonderland” based on the novel Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll .



Spoilers ahead warning



My review


This part 1 of 2 Alice in wonderland movies feature 1910 and 1951 reviews part of classics reviews nights figure I do both tonight since I feel like writing so here is my review of 1910 version due note this only 10 mins since it silent film also I don’t think I see this over 100 year film so let see what it has.


Starts over with title and white rabbit then 2 girls outdoors then rabbit comes along and go down the hole then one of them follow him that Alice yep then she goes down and then drinks a bottle of something probably wine lol whatever it was cause her to get small it pretty cool effects but for a 10 min film it goes bye fast anyway she grows again after eating cake and then starts crying and then wakes up to river a tears maybe she the one cause all this rain we got nah anyway back to film she then gets small again and now has enter the Garden I wonder if they can fit in tea party maybe this version does not have it yet this was the only 2nd Alice film in history so I am reviewing the 2nd Alice in wonderland film ever made which is cool the characters after this is the Duchess, the cook , the baby and the Cheshire Cat odd cat by the way must say costumes look and yes they do put in tea party which is fun part of Alice in wonderland series one of favorite as well but in this one it is very short due to film only being 10 mins this must of been hard back then you did not get lots of time to film so you have to film what you can well after short tea party we are getting close to end which is cards and queen of hearts some one stole her tarts and well isn’t so they go to court really over tarts must of been important.



So anyway they blame Alice for tart stealing and then cards flip around as she wakes up it was just a dream I think that lady was her mom or sister anyway they hug and that end of this 10:47 film must say it was not a bad film for 110 or over 100 years old film. Coming later stay turned the 1951 version review of Alice in wonderland will be up I hope you enjoy this little per bonus of silent film review.



Alice’s adventures in Wonderland (1910) rating 7/10

Starring………….. Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint



Director……….. David Yates



Synopsis


Harry, Ron and Hermione search for Voldemort’s remaining Horcruxes their effect to destroy the dark Lord as the final battle rages at hogwarts .



Spoilers ahead warning



My Review


This is it the last battle and final review of series went bye fast can’t believe this is the end been a long road of reviews to get here so here we go with the final Harry Potter movie see what I think below.



Movie starts off with a highlight on how first part ending after that logo of movie starts then it shows a shot of snape nice shot of him looking there after that it takes you too where potter at a nice shot of Dobby grave then he goes to talk to goblin from bank and the guy who give his first wand in first movie so Hermione changes into one that killed sirus Helen does so they can go to vault at bank something goes wrong as now they maybe trapped with a monster this is place where next Horcruxes can maybe be found but then goblin turn his back on them and Almost cost them there life’s lucky they got out after that we see goblin that turn his back on him dead he was too greedy that for sure then Harry gets version of dark lord who knows Harry every remember they are connected so might be tough for Harry to control him so they go to dumbdore brother for some info find some as picture of his sister opens here is neville that brings him to rest of gang then after that there a battle between professor and snape good moment but didnt last long as dark lord gives them 1 hour to give him Harry or else all hell goes down this is start of big battle here Harry must find the last Horcruxes and destroy and maybe it will kill dark lord once and for all.



The professor puts a spell that will keep them not sure if it will last as dark lord is attacking it and soon he probably get though and he did no now battle is on let go fight is on now hogwarts is being attacked this test for them after all they learn now will maybe payoff to survive now.



Holy cow a hour in and this amazing stuff what going on Harry found the next Horcruxes and got rid of it but snake is the last one kill the snake kills him forever can of tough to watch there some characters being killed off the one that like ron she was killed same pretty girl after that it goes to dark lord and snape then he kills snape that proves he cares about no one Harry see his death and goes talk to him he tell him to take his tears and Harry does now then dark lord sends a message then one of that scary again. Then Harry goes to see what in snape tears turn out he was friends with Harry mom and there was a plan between dumbdore and snape telling him to me wow turns out snape was not a bad person after all and this was a huge plan it was snape who help Harry out in first part of movie sad ending to snape but he did the right thing he was indeed a hero.



Then Harry goes to forest and golden snitch opens and then Harry goes to dark lord and well gets killed fast so is this end of potter or not well he wakes up somewhere so is this heaven dumbdore Is there as well nice to see them reunite probably for last time they have a good talk and he ask him how he can beat the dark lord he didn’t say too much I think he give him enough to beat and dumbdore left now potter is going to play a game that will think dark lord think potter dead and he not good thing because dark lord force then all to join him Harry does wake up now this is one final battle has started great battle between them but someone needs to step up and kill the snake that will end it and when I see who did it had me cheering this person deserve that glory not going to spoil it, though you have to see from yourself and trust me you’ll be cheering too as well as this mark end of dark lord.



It is now over time to rebuild hogwarts will not be the same with dumbdore and snape so I think Harry time in hogwarts is over so wonder what future brings for all 3 of them well to end it they hope to 19 years later and had a beautiful ending like the book and that it.



Have to say one of best ending to series in my view from start to finish and the one who killed the snake again had me cheering good move to give him the too spot he be remember as hero that save all of them great series this was so out of all them which one I like the best if I had to go in order it will be like this. Number 1 , 2 , 4, and others don’t have time to list them maybe 1 day I will but anyway after see all movies have to say books are still better though but hats off they did good on movies too there a new series coming out of potter series not sure yet if I watch it well that it been fun reviewing the potter movies though good moments and bad moments it been one heck of a ride next week will be moving on from series so unit next have a good rest of your Sunday night.

Director………. David Yates



Synopsis


As Harry, Ron and Hermione race against time and evil to Destory the Horcruxes, they uncover the existence of the three most powerful objects in the wizarding world: Deathly Hallows.



Warning spoilers ahead



My review


The final 2 Harry Potter movies a 2 day wrap up reviews event start today and ends Sunday with the final Harry Potter movie this has gone by fast so looking forward to wrap it up and in this one you have the gang trying to get rid of Horcruxes once and for All so let get going on part 1 of what I think of next Harry Potter movie.



Movie starts off with after what happen at the end of half blood Prince then after intro it goes too everyone getting ready for what is ahead Harry and odd thing hermione erased them from time II guess odd way to start there then after it goes to a meeting with dark lord and snape Is there as well he says he must get another wand to kill potter this one of creepy villain in movie and book history as well too he is pure evil as you see with first 5 mins killing that women and feeding her to his snake indeed scary that was and yuck.



Then it goes back where Harry look back at his family house for the last time as everyone shows up as moody says everyone needs to look like you so everybody must take juice they do and everyone changes into potter this was a great moment hopefully it works as they take off in the air look like they are attacked in the air bye dark lord gang this off not too good start dark lord and Harry had a small battle in the air look like most of them made it back but some did not as moody was catch in death eaters trap and was killed sad quick ending to that character.



Then later it was revealed dumbdore left crew some interesting gifts the one he used at start sort of light that collects all lights give that too Ron some book to hermione and to Harry a sword and gold snitch as well but only problem is sword is missing.



Then at party a messsge was sent follow a attack they were wrap to another place they were attack in cafe but fighting off bad guys look like they are not safe anywhere so they go back to which I think is Sirus home then dobby shows up good too see that character again remember that teacher lady I hated well she back again I see still hate that character.



Anyway Ron, hermione and Harry use that juice that changed them again this time they go where place that is dark place and guess who wearing the Horcruxes it was evil teacher lucky they grab it now run and get out of there now everyone spot him they were very lucky as they just got out of there safe for now they must find a way to the Destory the Horcruxes but how is question they try everything but does not they better hurry this thing is evil and cause angry and hate fast if wearing it long a long time you can tell ron is wearing it and now angry and a fight between them cause Ron to leave he be back just need to cool off got to feel sorry for Hermione here she miss him Harry try to cheer her up with a dance he is a good friend to her it work a little but not much still wonder when Ron coming back not sure.


Then Harry and Hermione find a clue that leads to place where Harry was Born they meet a old lady at grave who is acting odd careful this maybe be a trap because she not saying much turns out I was right as lady turn into a snake let me guess that dark lord snake sending Harry a message or maybe it was not why would his snake attack Harry if he wanted to kill him his self so I think it may of been a message.



Then when sitting there a deer look to be magic showed up when Harry was sitting there is this a clue it leads to a small lake Harry finds the sword but was attacked under water but Ron returns and pulls him up so now is your chance Harry something happen very weird a huge cloud and then odd things happen good thing ron got the job done and got rid of 1 of them but there still another out there so next clue leads to Luna dad about symbol around his neck Hermione tells story of it from books as Luna father said after that his house was attacked not sure if he was killed or not did not sure but his was destroyed as well.



Then after that Hermione and Gang was attacked then she attacked Harry this was a spell turning Harry face ugly show they won’t figure out it us but they take him to where Luna at but then dobby shows and takes them to safe but evil witch throws a knife while he dobby was time wrap unfortunately he didn’t make it and pass was sad to see him go here after that takes you dumbdore grave as dark lord gets powerful wand of dumbdore this where it ends of part 1 leading up to part 2 good ending there.



Well this was not a bad movie good that important character death at end was tough to watch but cliffhanger at end was amazing as well so indeed like this one as well so get ready after death of potter friend it will mean war from here all out and tomorrow night at same time will be big finale review of last Harry Potter movie for now have a good rest of your Saturday night.

Spoilers warning ahead



My Review


The 6 movie we are on boy this goes bye fast before I started review next week is start of finale of Harry Potter series so next Saturday and Sunday will be pretty much ending this series on a two night review event May as well will be finale review the final 2 Harry Potter movies and you see what I think anyway here is review of half blood Prince before we get there so here is review on a Sunday night edition was busy on Saturday so moved it Sunday



Movie starts off with people taking pictures of Harry then title shows up then darkness starts to fall things are about get crazy and first few mins then Harry is show at cafe talking to hot women and gets time she gets off no time for this as he see dumbdore and takes his arm and is wrap back in time or it was quick way to get where your going they enter house looking for someone they find him he was a chair turn into a person that one good way hide don’t blame him for what is going on out there that for sure.



They had a nice chat for a bit then dumbdore took Harry to house where everyone was waiting for they no longer kids now they meet again and I think Harry likes Ginny you be see more of that in this one that for sure then takes you snape with bad guys making you think he one of them maybe or maybe not.



Not sure if they will go back hogwarts as lord Voldemort waiting but he does maybe everything will be ok for now he better keep his eye he then gets kick in face on floor by Draco lucky Luna notice he was there she try to fix his nose think it worked though and so back at hogwarts they were warn about what coming then later I think they took a class that shows you how to make love potions Harry pretty much nailed it after that dumbdore show him a memory bye using it and shows dumbdore talking to young lord Voldemort it was very interesting story between them Harry asked if he know what Tom will become and he said no so looking like he may of visiting him one time.



Then after that lavender brown has her eyes on Ron maybe she likes him remember they are teens so there might be a little on who likes who or ends with who.


While that going on a girl who looked possessed or cursed who was doing this was sending a message and trying to get Harry and his friends in trouble and it work a little as they were send back to there rooms.


Then later hermione see Ron kissing another girl and start crying Harry was there to cheer her up yeah more teen drama that for sure then later at dance Harry heard snape talking to Draco so he may knows what he up to but anyone believe him Is the question.



Then a moment between Ginny and Harry Potter look like it but then a flame come which is they were attack probably just trying to send a message it was edge of seat moment as there house burned to ground.



Then after that look like Ron took love potion and then almost got poison again someone sent bottle of something then after that hermione and Lavender fight over Ron enough with drama this Harry Potter not Harry drama all the time that a joke but I do think they over done it a little bit in this one.



After that Harry found out it may of been Draco trying to kill dumbdore not surprised at all never did like him at all his father is evil as well .



Then later the spider from 2nd movie I think has died he was hagid friend got to wonder did he die of age or not is ? It is something then after hagid drinks and well pass out then professor give Harry one of his memory one on what he said to Tom it was a old memory this how his soul went into many parts this how he keep coming back.



Then dumbdore and potter take a place to a cave looking something powerful they find something that powerful dumbdore drinks they find look to be a powerful stone maybe then some ugly looking things attack Harry but lucky dumbdore got his strength back and save Harry that was close one though he still weak though but bad news as lord Voldemort bad guys are now at hogwarts and a big powerful moment that will change character moment it was not Draco but snape should of see that coming I remember watching it in theaters that moment was tough to watch so after this what does potter do now with out him so harry talks to Ron and hermione about going after them himself but she says he not alone in this as eagle fly and that how it ends very powerful .




Well will say a good movie but drama was little bit too much on who like who but that ending with a huge character death by someone who he thought he can trust was huge as well it was not a bad movie but not on my top favorites acting was still good though will say.



Next weekend is the end of Harry Potter series with a 2 night reviews event next weekend so better get rest up got 2 big movies reviews to write next week so unit then have a great rest of your Sunday.

My review


Another Harry Potter movie review Saturday after last week ready to review the 5th movie of the series so how does this one start off pretty much where 4th ending started but back on playground where his cousin still bullying him he grow up doesn’t he even learn but then it gets dark then they run to a tunnel then they were attack by them things that suck air out of you like Harry fight them off but he broken the rules which now got him is banned from hogwarts for now well he had to do what he had to do fools but then real moody show up and get him out of trouble for now he says he not banned yet but I think Harry must go to court to fight his case on why he use magic also I wonder who sent that letter sounds like Ron mom but was not then after going to building he meets ron and Hermione and also Sirus black as well seem like most of characters from 3nd movie are back now.



So now indeed Harry must go in front of court and put his story online to save him from being banned from hogwarts they would have to be fools to banned him from there if there anyone that can help him it dumbdore and he does and Harry tells story on why he did and still not going well and they still don’t think lord Voldemort is back as well so anyway all this did not matter as they let Harry go on all changes so he not banned from hogwarts now Harry see lord Voldemort everywhere he goes now so it back to hogwarts.



One of hearing ladies is now part of hogwarts let say I do not like her at well and I bet she working with lord Voldemort everyone at hogwarts are fools they still don’t think lord is back didn’t they see one of there own was killed by him very odd.



Mrs Dolores is bad as well as Harry write something it cut Harry with words on his hand ouch she is bad and should not be a teacher that why I don’t like her worst teacher at hogwarts that I see in movies that for sure.



Unfortunately it gets more worst ministry of magic to to control the school so she firing everyone and trying to make hogwarts into something worst he save the teacher job for now dumbdore show up then leaves also this witch is not letting anyway defend there self as well that gives you a clue she might be working for him to keep a eye on every move so Harry try to one up her by running a class with Harry Potter as teacher everything is going well but they better be careful not to get caught or else miss evil witch will be mad and who knows what happen after that unsure hope it doesn’t happen.



Another Christmas comes they do one heck of job added Christmas theme to movies as well keep it up don’t mind it during break sirus and potter had nice chat and Harry thinks he turning in Voldemort but sirus says no way at all.



After that we see something release the bad guys from jail my guess this Voldemort getting his army together things are about to get more dark better started teaching fast Harry then as his was teaching they find out about class here we go they blame dumbdore and take away his powers now look like witch has all power now over hogwarts great now she change it into a s Zone hopefully not they better come up with one heck of plan to beat her better soon because she being mean to young kids potter will not stand to see that and soon will do something. So what better way to beat her well use magic to do so they use lots of it too drive crazy it worked but Harry gets some sort vision of sirus black being killed bye lord Voldemort but then witch catch Harry Potter before they can do anything doesn’t she go away does she but in a great move later they get rid of her for now but I would not bet she will return somehow.



Anyway battle just has started as they go to place where Harry had his version is there place of lord memory’s then they meet father of Draco and that crazy women we see early on now is test too see how they do after all teaching to protect them selfs everything is going well but unit something attacks and his friends are in trouble so what Harry going to do sirus black shows up with some back up and help out good unfortunately he was killed by dear crazy women then after that lord Voldemort shows up and also dumbdore shows up and battles it going good unit he takes over potter he is powerful Harry can fight him come he does as lord leaves and everyone now knows he is back so again lord Voldemort is gone again hopefully now dumbdore takes over hogwarts again now will say that was great battle even though it was death of another character so how does this movie ends just like every time everyone saying goodbye and Harry saying something we have to fight for which he does not and that how it ends.




A better movie it was only thing I did not like is that witch who was mean to them she again gets my vote as worst teacher at hogwarts anyway effects was good got a few new characters as well a good battle at end was sad to see another member close to Harry died that suck bad but got to do to stay close to book anyway a thumbs up to this one I did like and next week is number 6 getting ready after that will get more and more dark can’t wait to tell you what I think of next Harry Potter movie next Saturday so for now have a good rest of your Saturday and weekend.

Movie starts off with a huge snake scary and then title movie pop up and then goes to a guy hearing a meeting going between lord Voldemort yes he back and well that guy got catch and got nailed after that hermione wakes guy up this where they meet a face you see before is there from other series that try to go up against series and well failed cough cough anyway teachers take them a huge seeker game with some of top players this World Cup then something attacked them killing everything in it path and potter again was the one catch in fire as he see a man who standing there my guess one of lord Voldemort followers he does not show his ugly face yet though.




Then at hogwarts it was announced there will be a tournament where winner take all I guess so who will enter this dangerous tournament well they are hand pick by moody his name is guy with odd eye and they show what you win in this tournament it is a huge cup moody is also a teacher as well new at hogwarts we seem to get new characters each movie which is good sort of like book series is that for sure.


Then blue flame starts picking who is enter the tournament this will cause some problems with result coming up for some reason because a name get thrown in which will be shocking name this what cause a rub and well shock everyone that name is Harry Potter this where everybody turn on him thinking he cheated but he did not do this someone did it but who is ?. So now potter must enter the tournament now rather he wants too or not.



This is so bad even his friends turn on him and think he a cheating he try to tell them truth but no one is believe him so wonder how long this goes on unit his friends start believe him and stop giving him cold shoulder this what I don’t like about this I mean after all them 3 been though last 3 movies they don’t believe him now weird.



Anyway potter is on his own for now to find out why so he get a message from black from last movie he is in a fire talking to Harry he does get some info still not an enough to know what going on.



Hermione and Ron still not talking to him get over it will you this again why I don’t like this because drag on a little long almost 25 mins now.



Well Hermione does forgot him because I think she missed him least she come to her senseless unlike Ron yet so first one of tourment has something to do with dragons good luck this will not be easy because you have to get golden egg to win this first round it was not easy also again if you died tournament over for you Harry did get golden egg was one heck of battle though he was lucky after that Ron and talk it out now can we move on from drama and solve who heck put potter in this dangerous tournament.



There is a dance as well as professors get students ready for that with dance lessons now question is who taking who to the dance more drama yeah ok Ron should try and ask Hermione to dance she said she allready has a date I guess.



So everyone is now at dance Hermione does show up dance up nice as well she does sure nice though everything is going well everyone having a good unit Ron and Hermione goes at and fight and well that it as it ends in a sour note between them this is a tease between ron and hermione ok enough drama back to tournament please.



Then Harry Potter nightmares get more and more worst building up to something later on there will be a meaning behind nightmares you will see now they go on to next round of tournament which is more dangerous which will be underwater careful then he see his friends under water is that them or is this a trick is question look real as they did not show early on before next round started turns out it was them and that part of next round well to say them and win he did not get first but 2nd best not bad.



Then first body show up later then wizard ask for tournament to be canned then potter see something that send him back in time he see someone name Barty Crouch JR nice flashback will it mean something later hmm. And as next tournament and last round getting ready this going not be a good ending to tournament and it will get dark which is to negotiate a maze that been grown in the Quidditch pitch at hogwarts who ever touch the cup is winner of tournament it can off off but so is this maze a plant or something look hard no worder they saved the hard one for so it comes down to Cedric they both touch cup but does not take them back but too a place where potter head hurts more and that little rat from 3 movie returns and kills Cedric then with Harry Potter drop of blood bring back guess who lord Voldemort is back now things will get more dark with his return potter is stuck there so how is going to get out and warn everyone well they did a good job with this movie scene here mind blowing stuff well he let him free not that free as we get out first wand fight between potter and Voldemort here it was great effects but it was looking like Harry was going to lose here some how magic opened spirits of dead talk him his mom and dad telling him to let go they help him out see they are there for him as potter got to cup and was teleport back to tournament and that was very tough to watch but for some reason moody grab potter what that about well I know then this was not Moody but someone else pretending to be him he drink that juice that turn him into moody well turn out it was one of lord Voldemort he was the one also who enter potter in tournament and set him up he was about to finish off potter lucky dumbdore show up and saved the day along with others as well he knows that not real moody then guy who look like moody started to change guess juice is wearing off and it was Barty the whole time what a snake.


After that what turn out to be a win for Harry Potter of tournament was canned as death of Cedric death overshadowed the question now that lord Voldemort is back now will anyone believe him is question some do but will others now so how does this movie ending well with 3 of them saying goodbye and watching boat go under water great ending there.



Well off to final thoughts it was better some drama though with his friend turn on him some that did drag out a little long but they did a good job with whole story with who on who side Voldemort is now back so things will start to get dark did I like how they found moody was lord followers thought it was good and little weird as well not bad at all so in the end acting and effects was still good as well it was up some on third movie as well so next is 5 Harry Potter movie I be reviewing next week so will see how story keep on rolling in this long movie series unit then have a good rest of your Saturday.

My Review


On to 3nd movie of Harry Potter movies series it is going bye fast some but still have a lot of movies left to review for series anyway here is what I think of next Harry Potter movie.



Movie starts off with Harry again at his family house the ones who are still mean to him don’t they ever learn Harry is using wand and every time his uncle walks in he goes to sleep so he won’t get catch then his uncle sister show up as well she rude to him as well grumpy old lady then she said rude things about his mom and dad and well Harry used magic oh boy he broke the rules but hate to say it she deserved it so she starts become a huge balloon and flys away this time he get a way his uncle does care good time to go Hogwarts for another year but how will get to station well a nightbus comes and pick him up this one crazy ride funny one as on train he finds about Sirius black and the guy tells him he is a bad guy this guy is feature a lot in this 3nd movie as well.



Then guy says spell against his aunt is now reverse and her memory been erased so no harm done wow he lucky to get off hook here that fast ok then after that he meets up with his friends Ron and hermione so gang back together again ready to solve anything that comes there one thing for sure about movies they sure age fast though on the way to hogwarts the whole train stop and things got dark sort of dark turn for movie here almost like horror vibes something almost took Harry soul or something but the guy who was sleeping got up and save Harry lucky he was there as well that was indeed sort of scary moment there.



The guy who helped potter will be a teacher at hogwarts as well they are called Dementors who feed off you creepy thing it is later Draco tease him about what happen to Harry about passing out he sure is a pain in butt I will give Tom credit he play the bully role very well though in this series.


Later on the gang finds out Sirius black is getting close to school and he is looking for Harry as well someone lady attacks the painting where fat lady stays and she said he is here as in Sirius black is now in hogwarts so time to watch out that for sure.



Then later when Draco was picking on hermione someone throw snowball at him turn out it was Harry under the clock blanket here funny stuff.



Then it gets very serious at 1 hour 31 mins as teacher was working for Sirius black and revealed as well he is a werewolf wonder if he one trying to attack harry then it also revealed that Ron rat was a human name Peter who is another odd character though turns out as well Sirius is Harry godfather as well then professor turns into werewolf as moon comes out oh boy what a transformation that was as wolf try to attack Harry as Sirius as wolf save him so got a wolf fight which was good but short as Sirius is hurt bye the water it just him and Harry but more dementors show up oh boy you know what happen first time and now they come for potter as a light across the river saves them hmm.


But now Sirius is in trouble as no one believe him so Hermione finds a way to go back in time this explain what odd things are happen great move bye her she is very good at magic so they go back in time and re live that day as they see there self very interesting what travel in time can do but they need to be careful and not get catch at all as they save hagid friend or dragon good move so next they try to save Sirius here they see wolf fight as it was Hermione who made the sounds nice plan but now wolf is after them but hagid friend save them then Harry see himself being soul suck away it was Harry all long who saved himself then they go and get Sirius out at least he is free for now time did reset as everything is back too the way .



The one who turn into a wolf quit as he said good by as Harry gets a new broom send by a friend as he went flying and that it no winner of cup this hmm ok I guess.



Let say there was some magic but force more on werewolf’s and stuff it was still a good movie but could of force not a lot on Sirius black there was some good effects I did like how they went back in time and fix stuff to make things right wil give them a plus on that acting was still ok so did this go way off from last 2 yes and now so in the end I will say this movie not best out of 2 before in my view but there still lots more Harry Potter movies to review stay turned next well for next Harry Potter review.



Harry Potter and prisoner of Azkaban rating 6/10

My review


Another week and another Harry Potter movie as I be reviewing the second Harry Potter have not see it for a while so like first movie looking forward to rewatching and review it as well.



The 2nd Harry Potter movie opens up with nice Intro and log of title then it goes to Harry Potter in his room they give him an updated too. Yes he still lives with his aunt who are still mean to him unfortunately they sent him where a elf name Dobby if I spell that right a weird creature the question is why did he come looking for Harry here hmmm.



He came to warn him about something going on at school of magic dobby came there to tell him not to go back to hogwarts Dobby cause trouble for Harry which cause his uncle to lock windows to make sure he does not go back but ron shows up and rescue him as well so now he on way back good bye for now crazy uncle.


So he goes stay at ron and Ginny see him and she look surprise she has a crush on him ron told him keep an eye on that too they drop a big hint between them ahead.



Harry then meets the rest of family then try to get to train station though the fireplace but I think he said spell wrong and it end up In a dark alley with witches lucky hagrid shows up and him up they had a few moments as he meet hermione as hagrid leaves again and later they meet Draco father who is weird don’t think he likes them all yeah.



Then they go to train station Harry and ron can not get though wall that goes to train station so Ron came up with idea of using his mom and dad car bad idea this what if someone will see them and this will make his mom and dad not happy flying car is dangerous as well they make it too hogwarts even though with a bump in the air let say landed in a tree then tree push it out bumping landed there better be careful they may get catch and well got catch they were see by 7 people oh boy snape is pissed he was about kick them out but wizard and professor Mcgonagall show up to save the day.



Then at dinner Ron gets a red letter from his mom and boy she was pissed at him as expected do I blame her well sort of she yell at him in angry was can of creepy see a letter yell.


Later Ron try to help out hermione but spell backfired as Ron now puke up something toads or something only to stop is for it wear off. After that Harry starts to hear some voices in wall sounds like snake sounds after that someone killed the cat and left a message saying chamber has been open beware so something was let out and will put lives of hogwarts in danger this first tease of what yet to come which maybe bad. So now the 3 got a case to look into.



The best part of Harry Potter movies is snitch games are played they are well filmed must of tough since they move around fast in my view but well done this year Draco been added as new captain for his team so it’s Harry vs Draco game ending with Harry winning but something was throwing balls at him then one of teacher try to heal his arm but it backfired and bones in arm was gone ouch and can of silly in my view.



Whole healing Dobby comes and tell him he was the one behind wall not working they angry for a wall then another kid was paralyzed this monster can do that bad things.



So they had a try out to protect each other and be ready in case they are attack and it was Draco vs potter and Draco drew a snake which Harry talk too guess he has powers to talk to snake which later on his claim another kid so Harry goes to talk dumbdore they have a nice talk he gets some info not much though.



Movie gets more odd as hermione makes up a crazy spell that turns them into Draco friends great move to see if they can find more info then Harry finds a book which someone throw at ghost then then he writes in it asking questions the book name is Tom riddle as Harry asked about chamber of secrets so he taking back in time when Tom riddle was at hagwarts so some shocking info was revealed that maybe hagid May of open the chamber of secrets years ago but too me I don’t think then later next victim was find and unfortunately it was hermione this time now things heat up as it up to ron and Harry to stop this thing from hurting more kids.



Then Harry see spiders many and following’s them to probably lead them to a huge spider It was hagid spider from past when potter went back in time Harry Potter got some info now it time to run as spiders are hungry for there blood now lucky they catch up witb his father car now they have to get out of there.



Then they go see hermione but then Harry finds a note with big info turns out snake witb eye is doing this too kids but as they talking someone has kidnapped Ginny now Harry must go there to rescue but where door to chamber at turns out huge sink is door to gate to chamber so Harry open it with way he talks to snakes then rocks fall on way after one of teacher spells backfired so now it up to Harry Potter alone to save Ginny figure story is more him and he must finish so he goes finds Ginny and does but Tom riddle there it was revealed he used Ginny to do them things then it was revealed that Tom is if you guess yep lord Voldemort this is past him or a memory so then he unleash a huge snake Harry did blind it nice move Harry keep running but can he run forever is question how is he going to beat this well hat that brought bye bird give him a sword that is good magic now kill him and he does but now he still has to deal with Tom here.


Harry takes Tom book and stab it as Tom riddle and Voldemort are gone again but trust me this is not end he be back so what happen after well bird has healing powers and so he healed as they all went back hogwarts safe and sound then Harry goes to talk to dumbdore as Draco father show turns out that Dobby master as well he just as snake as his boy is as he does show his hate then Dobby turns on his master and saves Harry that was fast he switch sides after that goes back to dinner and hermione is back as she ok and hagid shows up as well everything as everyone starts clapping for hagid as I think this how this chapter ends me yep does a nice ending.



Another great movie with good acting and mystery and edge of seat action as well as we meet a few new characters as well Dobby as well as Draco father very creepy he as well they are doing a good job keep up with book but just as last review you should read the book if you have not as well it is very good as for movie it was good as well next week will be 3nd Harry Potter review as well so get ready for that as for now have a good rest of weekend.

My Review


This is first movie out of Harry Potter movies I have read the books and now looking forward to review the movies started now with first Harry Potter movie below get ready.



So first movie I see in theaters years ago with a friend so this first time in years I see Harry Potter movies in years maybe this good to get my mind refresh on the series as well I am sure the movie series will indeed do that so how does the movie open with wizard and professor mcgonagall who was in a form of cat turn human she is top teacher of magic school and is very good at magic as well so her and the wizard meet on street there rumors of a boy that is important brought by hagid and they decided to leave him with his aunt and uncle also the boy has a mark on forehead well then it goes years later he is all grow up being bullied bye his cousin and his aunt who is rude as well so Harry got Bully from them.



Then at zoo Harry did get a little revenge some by free a snake but got catch by the uncle and was ground it may look bad now but I am sure things will change though as owl sure up with mail for Harry Potter but uncle try to get rid of them but they keep on coming so uncle run away but then hagid show up and tell the story to him thank god then he see cousin pig out on cake and did magic on him in a funny way then he give Harry a choice to go school of magic or stay there and well he choice to go I would too then staying with them family fools.


First he need to get money so he goes to bank as they unlock his dad safe which turns out be he rich and left his son lots of coins keep a eye out too the one that open safe is a familler voice you see in movies before soon as I heard I indeed know who actor was pretty cool though.



Later Harry try to find a wand he has a few choice but did not fit unit guy found him one then later Harry ask about how is mom died she was killed by evil lord Voldemort and he try to kill Harry Potter as a baby but something stop him hagid said and he still out there as well so they go train station and he told him to go this number he had a go and Harry ask him a question and he was gone guess he on his own to try and find a way to Hogwarts school so with a little help from Ron and Ginny as well keep a eye on her as well her character is very important for series here as well so Harry goes though and now there the train to hogwarts school this where he become friends with Ron as they eat the whole cart of candy which will probably give give them stomach aces later lol then they meet hermione and well made friends with her as well them 3 are very very important characters of the film as well though the series.



Then you get sort into classes by a hat which potter got sort into gyffindor which is good magic good thing he did not get sorting into bad one came close though before that he meet snape and then his forehead hurts him does snape here have a bone to pick with Harry then Harry reads newspaper later and see bank vault him and hagid went too was broken into hmm very interesting.



Then it goes to broom training or flying lessons and the professor see him fly and makes him new seeker so now he got to learn to play like his father then later after class Ron made fun of hermione and then she runs into bathroom crying bad news a troll is out and so 3 friends battle it in a small battle 5 points taken and 5 points giving to Gryffindor for damn luck laugh at tha but ok.



After that seek game has started what you do is get ball as it slytherin vs gryffindor battle the game goes get the ball in the air and throw though the hop to get 10 points most points win but get golden seeker anytime and it over whole playing someone is messing with potter big time look like snape maybe hermione went over there and save the day as Harry got the golden ball and win for his team.



Then after that Christmas time everyone head home but Ron and Harry stay as he gets a invisible clock or blacket it is very cool it is now he can maybe what go on but he has to be careful as well.



Soon as Harry got to hogwarts odd things has happen his forehead hurting someone let troll out and someone messing with his broom someone hates potter and is playing games with him as well remember lord Voldemort well May of got first small look at him later as something was drinking the blood of a unicorn turns out May of been lord Voldemort lucky someone saved Harry though or lord could of grab him there nice build up though.



So big ending is coming up for first movie as they try and find out secret of sorcerer stone they go though guards of the gate first 3 head dog lucky they get though then giant weeds trap them they made it though that but more traps are throw them the final one before getting there is a game of chess and they are players and they can get killed for real ron played the game good but put his life on the line so Harry can pass so Ron got took out as Harry said chess mate and that it so now Harry.



Well then truth comes out it was coward teacher the whole time who was lord Voldemort this was first meeting again between them he was after the stone but he finds out Harry weaks him by touch him as he beat him for now but his soul left so this is not the end of lord Voldemort though but for now Harry win this battle as his soul goes though Harry knocking him out as Harry woke up in hospital wing as wizard and him talk and he said Voldemort will be back.


So one last thing who win the battle of points and came in first which school wins the house cup well with some added points the Gryffindor won the house cup as school years ends so now it back to his aunts and goofing uncle for now as movie ends with train leaving a very good ending.



Well what a good started it was fun watching this one again and see it again they did a good job in this one good acting good effects of magic and great build as well they made Voldemort scary looking as well the only thing I did not like was his family being so mean just jealous I guess and so after watching this is it close to books sort of but I do think you should read first book might have more then movie sometimes they can not fit everything in movie so just letting you but will say they did a very job with this and next week looking forward to review the next movie of the series which will take a bit as there lots of movies so every Saturday night for reviews will be Harry Potter movies reviews unit the end this is end of first movie review unit next week have a good rest of your weekend.
