Review of The Princess Diaries (Wide Screen) by
sadoldbag
Advantages: Some watchable comedy, reasobnable performances
Disadvantages: Ridiculous storyboard
...but is watchably comic enoughof the time to avoid the need to grip the sick bucket all the way through. My three year old daughter also enjoyed it in passing, though she couldn't concentrate all the way through.
The film was mde in 2001, and there is now a sequel.
The main character, Mia, opens the film as a bright but gawky schoolgirl in San Francisco who is uncool in the high school environment and so nervous of speaking in public she throws ... ...country. Her grandmother the Queen (Julie Andrews) devotes time and effort to coaching her to take the throne so she herself can abdicate, and she gradually changes into an A list princess who attracts media attention and all the A list boys she can handle.
Julie Andrews does a competent job of being regal, despite the ludicrous premise that she didn't even tell her grandaughter of her heritage until she was 15. Some cute and touching scenes develop ...

Worthy Third Installment
Review of High School Musical 3 - Senior Year DVD by
katygriff
Advantages: Fun
Disadvantages: None
I love High School Musical and I saw the third one at the cinema last weekend now for the second time as I love it so much. It is the most fun and fantastic film and follows on from the first two very well due to its slightly more grown up feel and songs and dances. This review will hopefully tell you why this trilogy has been finished off perfectly with this fab third film.
Story of this film is that it is senior year at East high school and everybody ... ...This film shows that the high school musical franchise is as strong as ever and the third installment still captures all of the Disney magic and once again leaves the audience wanting more. I have to say that this film is definitely one you should go and see if you want a couple of hours of pure fun.
The film lasts for just under 2 hours which seems long but it goes by in a flash and as always with these films it is a Universal certificate. You ...

...of water and watching the Care Bears movie? I was quite surprised that hubby didn't even object to this, and actually seemed quite excited about the film! He must have been feeling delicate too.
Care Bears - The Movie
I used to like the Care Bears - I was never a huge fan, but had a couple of the bears, including Birthday Bear (my favourite), and used to get Care Bears films out of the video shop along with My Little Pony, and Herbie goes ... ...film, it's the first Care Bear's film, and was released in 1985, but I'm sure I must have seen it at some point.
So, onto the story
In the orphanage the children are ready for bed, and want a bedtime story before they go off to sleep. So, the orphanage owner Mr Cherrywood (voice over by Mickey Rooney) tells them a story…..about a time when people stopped caring.
Care-a-lot is where the Care Bears live, and it's such a nice place to live, ...

Mist is suitable for all ages , although aimed at children , I know ... ...absolutely love this film ; Mist is so cute and cuddly , and the characters of the other dogs are really amusing too ; my favourite being Mist's snobby Auntie Fern! I loved the voice-overs and narrator as they make the story sound so much more exciting and I loved the different accents and voices that the older dogs were given. The voice overs were good , but I thought the filming was really good too and I could even watch it with the sound on or ...
