to infinity and beyond

Advantages: great animation
Disadvantages: can see how improved animation is over the years

...the incorrect way, I watched toy story 2 at the cinema then watched toy story on DVD. My cousins really wanted to see the second after loving the first so I agreed to take them and then borrowed the first one off of them as I enjoyed it so much. Toy Story is about a Cowboy doll called Woody who is Andy's favorite toy. Woody is the leader of all the toys as in this animation all the toys come to life. Unfortunately Andy gets a new toy fir his birthday ...
...not think he is a toy he really thinks he is Buzz Lightyear. Unfortunately the two get lost a few days before Andy moves house and the two have to work together to get themselves home, will they be able to do as they both have two different aims in life Buzz thinks he is a superhero trying to save the world and Woody knowing that he is a toy and belongs to Andy. With the voices of Tom Hanks as Woody, John Ratzenberger, Annie Potts and Tim Allen ...

* A bugs life *

Advantages: Enjoyment
Disadvantages: None

...life< I found that a bug’s life was a great film for both adults and children alike. I thought Flick had some great ideas and used his ideas really well and imaginative, encouraging children to be like him, I loved his inventions and how he carried it through to a conclusion, I also like it how he apologised and how he tried to make amends. Being a student studying childcare I found this film to be a great way to calm children and let them relax. ...

"Lock up the lions or they will eat you"

Advantages: Watching Dick Van Dyke dancing off the junk in his trunk
Disadvantages: None for me

NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM FILM ONLY REVIEW Night of the Museum is a 2006 film that was adapted from the 1993 children's book by Milan Trenc of the same name. When I saw the line up Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Ricky Gervais, Steve Coogan, Owen Wilson and even old timers Dick Van Dyke and Mickey Rooney, I just knew that this was a film I wanted to watch. Night at the Museum opens with sad sack Larry Daley (Ben Stiller) about to need to relocate. ...
...he will become the new night guard. Cecil, Gus and Reginald (Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Rooney and Bill Cobbs) are the three aging and eccentric guards who are being downsized in favour of young Larry. What Larry doesn't know is that these three men have been holding down a considerably more complicated stronghold than anyone could have imagined after the sun goes down on the museum. Larry is about to find out that being a night guard is less about peace ...

Destiny is Written in the Heart

Advantages: beautiful animation, well written storyline, good score
Disadvantages: initially I was put off by it being Barbie

~~~background to the Barbie franchise~~~~ In 1956, Ruth handler, wife of Elliot Handler (cofounder of the Mattel toy company) suggested an adult bodied fashion doll for girls. She got the idea after watching her daughter and her friends play with paper dolls who were adult in appearance, and how they loved to change the outfits on them. Up until this point, dolls for children were modelled on infants or children only. Elliot rejected the notion, ...
...Lilli, ceased production, and designed Barbie and later ken. Interestingly enough, though barbie and ken are marketed as teenage sweethearts, the dolls are named after the Handler children. Over the years, the franchise grew, with international sales making it the number one selling fashion doll in the world, despite imitators and modern takes on the fashion doll appearing. With dolls, clothes, doll houses, vehicles, animals, colouring books, storybooks ...

Cars Is The Best Kid's Movie Ever!

Advantages: lifelike,funny,entertaining
Disadvantages: none

Join Lightning McQueen, the superstar race car, on his adventure to conquer Dinoco. The animation of this film is incredible, it almost looks real. My favorite character is the ever funny Mater. The hillbilly tow truck takes pride in his backwards driving, and will keep you laughing! My sons both love the movie, and will watch it over and over again. It's good for me, I can watch it with them everytime! This movie offers everything...it is funny....it ...
