Toy Story 3

First of all, if you make a good movie you don't need 3D, unless you are trying to be visually astounding. The entire Toy Story series has no need to be such a spectacle. With that in mind, I decided to see the regular version instead of the 3D version. I suspect that there would be little difference in my review either way.

Toy Story 3 was exactly what I thought it would be. It was fun and by the end you realize just how attached you are to the characters. You feel sad that Andy's all grown up. But don't worry Toy Story 3 has a great ending.

My only criticism is that it took itself a little to seriously. There's a scene where all of our favorite toys are facing certain doom. This is not unlike any other cartoon movie, but I thought that the scene in this one was over the top dramatic. It switched to an adult move at this point that I don't feel was very kid friendly. I'm not a parent to shelter my children but I found this scene to be a little too intense. Charlotte closed her eyes and I told her when the toys were ok.

Besides that I was very pleased with Toy Story 3. It was a great way to spend a hot summer afternoon!

Green Book AMC High Point 8 Superior This was a great movie. It made you laugh, it made you cry. It was a really interesting look at a topic that's been looked in to many times. Even though the theme was the same, this movie felt fresh and original. I can fully support this movie for Best Picture.

Alita AMC High Point 8 Superior Aka Totally B.A. I took the kiddos to see this movie, mostly because it's a girl power movie and Charlotte loves those kinds of movies. Holy crap! This movie was awesome. The story, the acting, the special effects. James Cameron proves again that if you get a cool idea for a movie and spend a s### ton of money on it. You get an epic film! One of the few movies that I was happy at the end that there's going to  be a sequel!

Isn't It Romantic

Isn't It Romantic AMC High Point 8 Excellent This movie started very poorly. Awkward scenes and questionable camera decisions. Then it got warmed up and it ended up being a cute funny movie. It needs a lot of work to get the top rating, but by the end I enjoyed myself. The soundtrack is awesome!
