Moms and dads need entertainment and these posts, for one reason or another will do just that
Owning a home is an adventure. Not only is the process of shopping for a house fun and exciting, but there’s nothing better than sitting in a home that you own and relaxing on the couch with your family or pet. Here are the top advantages of owning a home.
A caveat must be added to that title, The Suicide Squad is relentlessly enjoyable as a rated-R movie for audiences that know what to expect from such a film. That’s worth saying because I mentioned to my wife that this was a wildly enjoyable movie, but that she would have hated it. Our son started to pepper me with questions, asking if he could watch it and what aspects of the film he would like the most. Having an 11-year-old see a film that is a solid R-rated movie is a personal choice. For him, the violence in the film would’ve been far too much and he would not have understood most of the film’s context or its numerous, very funny sequences. Back in the day, the 11-year-old version of me would purchase a ticket to a generic family film and then sneak into The Suicide Squad. But this is a brave new world; what’s more likely to happen is that kids will watch it on HBO Max, brag to their friends that they saw it, but not really understand what makes The Suicide Squad such a great film.
There are many reasons why people could love or dislike Jungle Cruise. It stars Dwayne Johnson! It’s based on a theme park ride. It’s based on a theme park ride! Your negative reasons for liking it could easily be someone else’s reason for enjoying it. As a former WDW park employee, I can see many things to love about Jungle Cruise. The first act is jammed with subtle, meta winks to the audience as the film blurs between movie and self-realization that its premise is an audio-animatronic ride based on puns and adventure. That same period of the film is also wildly entertaining and will remind older movie fans of Raiders and Romancing the Stone.
As the film goes on, it will crib too much from those films, but more on that in a moment.
For my James Bond fans, imagine showing someone who has never seen a 007 film Skyfall, and then showing them from the campier Roger Moore era movies. The difference in those films is vast, some people enjoy both equally, while others see one as being a better movie than the other. That sums up Black Widow when compared to other action films or MCU movies. This is a movie that would’ve felt more at home if it were released in 2018. That schedule would’ve also allowed audiences to forgive the numerous flaws that live within the film. However, it’s been ages since we’ve been to the movie theater so let’s all go, unless it’s available on Disney + in a couple of weeks for no extra charge.
Life is all about expectations, isn’t it? Having heard that that Space Jam: A New Legacy was an abomination and the worst thing since sliced rotten bread I was prepared to be complacent in a Warner Bros. train wreck. However, Space Jam: A New Legacy firmly had the pulse of kids aged six through nine in its advertising, so I gamely took our youngest to the theater to see it. Don’t get me wrong, the film is a complete hot mess that attempts to mash up every single Warner Bros IP into a package that will entertain everyone. The result is that there are a couple of funny jokes amid countless movie scenes, puns, or characters that younger audiences won’t get or appreciate.
How are you doing? Have you been staying active and healthy? If you have healthy habits and are eating clean, chances are you have a lot of energy—but what if you don’t?
It must be tempting to take a long-running show, especially an animated one, and make a movie or two from it. The potential profits can certainly be greater, but the work in making, at the minimum, a 90-minute movie is daunting. From the studio’s perspective, if the show has been on the air for a decade or so then audiences, especially those younger ones will forgive an hour and a half that’s subpar. While it might be a slog for parents, they should know better and simply allow the kids to experience some ‘big kid’ time as they see said film for themselves. That’s the way that audiences should look at The Spongebob Movie: Sponge On The Run. Those in the audience who are six to eight years old will be mildly amused and those who are nine and up will find a couple of things to laugh at but will be bored overall.
Am I getting too old for animated films? That’s the question I posed to myself after being utterly bored with four out of the past five animated films that I’d seen. Our boys like those four films well enough, but it was also hot outside, so perhaps they just wanted to sit on the sofa too. We were unanimous in our love for Mitchells Vs. The Machines. After watching The Boss Baby: Family Business my animation faith is restored. It’s a very funny movie that surpasses the original in terms of originality, emotional feels and overall look.
Boss Baby 2: Back in Business is as funny too. It’s not funnier than the first one, but given the overall superiority of the aforementioned terms, it is a better movie. And who would’ve thought that? It’s a property that had a great first film, was turned into a funny television series on Netflix, and has come back to theaters even better. Templeton, how very Empire Strikes Back of you.
Fabulous entertainment for ages 7 and up anytime of the year
