Now this is the perfect definition of family entertainment. It’s always nice to see the whole family in action. This is a story of a family of superheroes, who tried their best to be (un)super, but the times would just call for them to be such. I loved each of the lead characters because they’re [...]
I wonder how Roger Ebert (my idol movie critic) would react to his own review of Cars after the film went on garnering awards. He said Cars was the least beautiful of John Lasseter’s earlier works, Toy Story and A Bug’s Life. I tend to disagree since there are lots of factors that make this [...]
The mutated life-size turles are back!
It would have been nicer if Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles had a 3D version, but still this movie doesn’t fail to entertain. My childhood memories came back in flash upon seeing these well-missed turtles

This actually is Robert Zemeckis’s follow up to Polar Express, Zemeckis having fallen in love himself to children’s animation, big thanks to the influence of Steven Spielberg.

The actors are so engrossed with their animal characters that even Nick Nolte had to research his role just as his voice would be that of a [...]
In 1998, A Bug’s Life was Disney’s November answer to the September release of Dreamworks Pictures, Antz. When Disney was still a separate entity from Pixar Animation Studios, the former contracted the latter to come up with another interesting CGI film, as follow up for Toy Story. Yes, Pixar was also the force behind Toy [...]
Toy Story was the revolutionary 1995 computer-animated hit that started it all. It was Pixar’s first feature film, and it’s said to be the first computer-animated film to be completed. This was surely a new adventure for Tom Hanks, who did the voice of “Woody†the lead character. He was on top of his career [...]
This movie was based from the 1982 novel by Stephen King, entitled “Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemptionâ€. But take note, the late great sex symbol Rita Hayworth was never on the film, but her pin-up served more than just an inspiration (or male energy & imagination inducer) for a guy who’s imprisoned.
It has a very [...]
