Let’s Review a Movie: Frank and Ollie (1995)

Today would have been the 100^th birthday of an amazing man, Ollie Johnston.  Like Ward Kimball, who I’ve talked about before, Ollie was of Walt’s Nine Old Men.  He brought great personality animation to many of Disney’s features over his long career, along with writing several books including the wonderful ‘Illusion of Life’.  In honour of all of that I’ve decided to celebrate the occasion by looking at the film that documented his life and career, along with the life of his animation partner and lifelong friend Frank Thomas.

Let’s Review a Movie: Psycho (1960)

Halloween is here again so I’m looking at my favourite ‘thriller’ film.

Let’s Review a Movie: If These Walls Could Talk (1996)

A made for television movie that tells the stories of three different women each living in the same house at different times.  The theme of the film that ties the three stories together is a very realistic look at the topic of abortion.  

Let’s Review a TV Series: The Legend of Korra Season 1

I was going to do this as an episode by episode review, but as I re-watched the season my thoughts on the later episodes kept creeping in on the earlier ones so I’m doing it all in one go; this is season one.  Or as I like to call it: how to wreck a lot of great ideas in twelve episodes or less.

Let’s Review a Movie: Batman Gotham Knight (2008)

So far this summer I’ve reviewed movies where Kevin Conroy voiced Batman and given my first thoughts on the final instalment in Christopher Nolan’s Batman franchise.  So let’s look at a film that combines both of these things.

The Dark Knight Rises – Early Thoughts

Well the Nolan Batman trilogy has official wrapped up and I’m very satisfied with the conclusion on first viewing.  This review has spoilers you have been warned.

Let’s Review a Movie: Superman/Batman Apocalypse (2010)

After Bruce Timm and his team worked on several DC Animated TV shows they moved into making animated direct to DVD movies of different DC heroes and stories based on several comic book story arcs.  I’m taking a look at one of the less well received of those releases.

Brave - Early Thoughts

The new movie from Disney and Pixar is out.  It’s the thirteenth movie release for the Pixar company, but with so much good quality from the studio already does it hold up as well as many of its predecessors?  Let’s see.  This review does have full spoilers.

Let's Review a Movie: The Batman Superman Movie (1996)

Okay yes this is just the world’s finest episodes packaged up in movie form.  However, I did buy it in movie form and since I review TV movies here too I’ve decided I’m giving this a full review, so let’s go.

Let’s Review a Movie: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011)

It’s time to take another look at the fourth film in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.  Upon its initial release I thought it was pretty good.  So does it still hold up?  Let’s find out.
