Delgo - In theatres December 12th

December 10, 2008

Delgo is a fun, animated action/adventure movie coming to theatres December 12th, 2008.

Delgo features the voices of Freddie Prinze Jr, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Anne Bancroft (in her last performance), Val Kilmer, Michael Clarke Duncan, Chris Kattan and more.

The story takes place in the magical land of Jhamora which is divided between two cultures – the Nohrin, winged masters of the skies, and the Lockni, the terrestrial tribe who harness the mystical powers of the land.  When Delgo (Freddie Prinze, Jr.), a reckless Lockni teenager, forms a forbidden friendship with the spunky Nohrin Princess Kyla (Jennifer Love Hewitt), hostilities between the two peoples escalate, setting the stage for an exiled empress (Anne Bancroft) to exact her revenge and reclaim her rule.

Falsely imprisoned, Delgo and his best friend, Filo (Chris Kattan), must put aside their differences to join forces with a sworn enemy, Bogardus (Val Kilmer), and travel to the mysterious land of Perran to rescue Princess Kyla.  Here they encounter fanciful creatures and discover more than just a kidnapped princess, they learn the value of different cultures and the importance of working together.

Delgo is rated PG and has a running time of 90 minutes.

Fly Me to the Moon DVD Review

December 7, 2008

We recently received the new movie, Fly Me to the Moon, the first-ever animated movie created for 3-D!

Fly Me to the Moon is now available on DVD and features the voice talents of Kelly Ripa, Nicollette Sheridan, Christopher Lloyd, Tim Curry, Ed Begley, Jr., and the legendary astronaut Buzz Aldrin.

My daughter was ecstatic when she found out we were getting a copy to review, she calls this movie “Bugs in Space” and knew more about it then I did.

The cool thing about this movie is that it comes in both 3-D and 2-D (regular version) so you are not limited to just watching a 3-D movie.  The only negative thing I can say about this DVD is that it only came with 2 pairs of 3-D glasses,  I think it should come with 4, so the whole family can watch together. We worked it out and took turns watching the movie.

We really enjoyed this movie and the animation is wonderful. I can only imagine what this looked like in the theater.

The basic storyline is about a young housefly Nat, who is looking for adventure and hatches a plan to jet into outer space with his two best friends, I.Q. and Scooter. In their homemade space suits, they take a wild ride aboard Apollo 11 all the way to the moon. As their families watch at home, the three flies become the first insects ever to journey into space… but this is no ordinary thrill ride. After a potentially disastrous mechanical problem, these daredevil flies must save the day.

Fly Me to the Moon would make a great gift this Holiday Season for children both young and old.

Rating: ★★★★☆ Only because of the 3-D glasses, the movie is wonderful!

Tinker Bell Movie Review

October 29, 2008

We have been waiting for months now for the release of the new Disney movie, Tinker Bell.

Needless to say, we rushed out on Tuesday morning to get our copy and have been watching it every day since. Tinker Bell is my daughters new favorite movie, if you have a 4 year old daughter you will completely understand.

Tinker Bell lives in the world of Pixie Hollow where she lives with her friends Rosetta, Silvermist, Fawn and Iridessa. TinkerBell’s special talent is a tinker fairy (meaning she fixes things), but she rather be one of the other fairies who get to go to the mainland.

When Tinkerbell tries to change herself it only leads to disaster. Her fairy friends help her learn the key to solving her problems lies in her unique tinker abilities, and discovers that when shes true to herself, magical things can happen.

Tinker Bell’s animation is absolutely beautiful and I am somewhat sad to not see it on the big screen. There are 3 more Tinker Bell Movies lines up after this one so be sure to stay tuned!
