Where the Red Fern Grows (1974)

an Heartwarming Yet Instant Classic for those who read the Book and considered themselves Dog Lovers

[7/10 · 5 May 2024]

For those who grew up reading Wilson Rawls's classic novel, the Film adaptation is still considered a classic since it was released in 1974 (and despite that, it's in the Public Domain).

Where the Red Fern Grows is a heartwarming family classic and a tearjerker at the same time with a magnificent cast including the late James Whitmore (the Planet of the Apes (1968), the Shawshank Redemption) as Billy's Grandfather, great acting, and valuable lessons; plus the Chemistry between Billy and his two Coonhounds Dan and Ann is remarkable throughout both the movie and the original novel of the same name, and the song written by the Osmonds and sung by the late Andy Williams are splendid and despite it's never gotten a soundtrack release. Overall this heartwarming family classic is worth watching for those who have read the book and those who are Dog Lovers and considered this an instant family classic for generations to come after its release in 1974.

Invisible Mom (1996 Video)

an Awkward Cheesy Family Movie that should be watched once

[3/10 · 22 February 2024]

Invisible Mom is the one obscure family film I've always wanted to revisit once more after seeing it on Youtube, though this movie has some interesting yet cheap special effects and the story is kinda awkward since it's "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" meets "The Invisible Woman" (1940); the Cast is okay including Dee Wallace (E. T.; Cujo and the Skateboard Kid 2) and Barry Livingston (who plays a Scientist) of My Three Sons as well as Russ Tamblyn who plays a Villian who works at Josh's father's workplace throughout this movie and the child actors is not great just okay including Trenton Knight (Munchie Strikes Back, the Skateboard Kid 2), Philip Van Dyke (Hey Arnold!) and Guiseppe Andrews (who later appear in Detriot Rock City) who plays a Bully to my big surprise. Overall Invisible Mom is just a very interesting and obscure Family Film from the '90s and for those who saw it once and revisited again years later, but i recommand watch the Inivisible Man (1933) directed by James Whale along with sequels and spinoffs from Universal Pictures and just don't either watch it again with your kids.

The Brave Little Toaster (1987)

the Greatest Underrated Animated Film that many of us watch for Generations

[7/10 · 28 January 2024]

Long before Toy Story (1995) a decade later, the Brave Little Toaster is probably one of the most underrated animated films to ever come out in the late 80s. Plus the film contains differences from the book but is essentially the same story, although the ending differs. In the novel, the appliances trade themselves away to an old ballerina who needs them, while in the film, they are reunited with their former master (named "Rob" in the film). Plus this movie has some Dark Elements that you could find in every Family/Kid Movie from the '80s including the scene where the Air Conditioner with a Jack Nicholson impression (voiced by the late Phil Hartman of SNL fame) explodes after going crazy, the Infamous Nightmare scene where Toaster is being chased by a Creepy Clown dressed as a Firefighter and falls into a bathtub full of water and not to mention all the Cars during the Musical Number "Worthless" being crushed in the Junkyard. The 5 appliances are for example: Radio (voiced by Jon Lovitz) is inquisitive as well as exaggeration and boasting, he also often narrates his adventures in a rather overdramatic style. He sometimes does radio talking from early 20th-century radio announcers, and he repeats major references referring to that era. Lampy (voiced by Timothy E. Stack) is a bright gooseneck lamp and he's outgoing and impatient and has a habit of repeating words he has already said per sentence. He has moments of thoughtfulness, such as when he recalls the time his master Rob changed his bulb and kept him in use. He also has moments of incredible selflessness; Kirby (voiced by Thurls Ravenscroft who voiced Tony the Tiger) is a crotchety old Vaccumm Cleaner who is always being cantankerous and bossy towards the others and also grumpy and stubborn, Blanky is the snuggly yellow Electric Blanket and is overly sensitive and gets upset very easily. He loves snuggling up to the other appliances, although they all initially reject him. And Toaster (voiced by Deanna Oliver who later wrote episodes for Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, and the 7D) is the leader of the group and helps out to reunite their master though considered Toaster is voiced by a Woman (unlike with the Rugrats years later) and despite that Toaster is a Him. And as always, the songs throughout this films are quite good, the first Official song "City of Light" is quite good and definitly the song worth listening to while on a road trip or vacation, the second one called "It's a B-movie" is a combination of Old School Horror, the Monster Mash, Andrew Lloyd Webber's the Phantom of the Opera and '70s Disco and it's the kinda song that everyone would want to listen to when Halloween is around, the 3rd Song "Cutting Edge" is slightly dated including the Appliances in Rob's Apartment, and the 4th and final song "Worthless" is definitly dark and was sung by the Junkyard Cars. Each car sings about his/her life story before he/she gets killed by the Crusher, and all of them contain themes of depression, mental Illness, and even sudicide. Because of this, it is frequently considered as one of the darkest songs in Disney films alongside "Hellfire" fron the Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996). Overall, the Brave Little Toaster is still considered an Underrated Animated Classic for those who grew up watching it in the '80s and '90's and for many generations to come.

Frankenstein and Me (1996)

an Underatted and Obscure 90s Family Film for any Monster Lover both Young and Old

[6/10 · 24 October 2023]

I first saw Frankenstein and Me on the Disney Channel back in the late 90s during Halloween, and I revisited it again on YouTube back in 2014 considering that this movie had probably been forgotten and never gotten a DVD release to this very day. Robert Tinnell is remarkable for directing this almost-forgotten family film set in the early 70s (unlike most movies set during that period such as Now and Then & Almost Famous) and the story involves Earl Williams (Jamieson Boulanger) being a certain Daydreamer and Monster fan along with his little Brother Larry (Ricky Mabe) by the time his failed Actor Father (played by Burt Williams) passed away from a Heart Attack on Halloween night 1970 and now he is left alone with his little brother and his Mother (Myriam Cyr). One day, the Carnival comes to town and joins his best friend Kenny (played by Ryan Gosling) and Karen for some fun until he discovers the Frankenstein Monster Dummy that falls off the back of a Carnival Truck and soon finds a way to bring it back to life. Now I really enjoyed this film after seeing it on Youtube and even Louise Fletcher (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) is remarkable for playing Earl's Teacher, the Story is very good and the music score is very nice and had some sad moments as well and the scenes of Earl Williams' daydreams pay homage to the Classic Universal Studios Monsters films of the 1930s thru 1940s and Hammerhead Horror Films of the late 50's and early 60's, if for those who have not seen this movie is probably worth watching once if for those who have seen the Monster Squad (1987).

Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021)

this Long Waited Sequel truly had a Magic Number

[7/10 · 23 September 2023]

When I first discovered that the long and waited third Ghostbusters sequel was in pre-production for a new generation, I was amazed and wouldn't be released until late 2021 because of the Covid-19 Pandemic despite that this wasn't going to be the Summer Blockbuster of 2020, but Later given a November release the following year and with Ivan Reitman handing down the Torch to his Son as the new director and writer. The third installment takes on new characters in the Ghostbusters Franchise such as Mr. Grooberson (played by Paul Rudd of Ant-Man), Phoebe (played by Mckenna Grace), Trevor (played by Stranger Things fame Finn Wolfhard), and the Easter Eggs from the previous 2 Ghostbusters movie was the perfect touch including the Zombie at the Diner (reference to the Zombie Cab Driver), Ray's Occult Bookstore, Egon's Spore Collection, the Armchair Grab from the first movie, the Symmetrical Stack of Books, Egon's Twinkie along with the Nestle Crunch Bar that Egon earned from Peter Venkman in the First Ghostbusters Movie, and the Ghostbusters commercial featured on Youtube, and who could forget the classic movie homages featured such as the Mountain at the Shandor mining company shares a certain resemblance to Devils Tower in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." The Spengler family encounters several objects moving around the farmhouse, including chess pieces and a lamp. Which is a reference to the Original Poltergeist movie from 1982. Even the Mini Stay-Puft Marshmallow Men probably drew inspiration from Gremlins (1984), which came out the same year as the first "Ghostbusters." even the touching ending is reminiscent of "E. T." when Elliott bids his alien buddy goodbye. Then you have a new ghost in this waited sequel named "Muncher" who feels like a spiritual successor to Slimer, who is based on James Belushi and the film also features an appearance from Academy Award-winning actor J. K. Simmons as Cult of Gozer leader Ivo Shandor. First mentioned in the 1984 film and serving as the antagonist in the 2009 video game, Shandor makes his live-action debut here and no surprise that there's also a deleted scene from the Original Movie gets it due near the end of the movie itself. Overall Ghostbusters: Afterlife is a new instant classic and this long waited for sequel truly has a magic number and still delivers, of course, this 3rd long waiting Installment is worth watching for fans of the Original Ghostbusters as well as new fans of this generation that we all live in.

The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry (2008)

an Unforgettable Christian Drama worth watching

[10/10 · 13 August 2023]

The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry is yet an Unforgettable Christian Drama and a Tearjerker at the same time. The Cast is remarkable, the Music Score is yet Brilliant and the Valuable Lessons and Incredible Film based on this True Story is very magnificent and despite this also being Frankie Ryan Manriquez's (Wayne from Higglytown Heroes, Disney Channel's That's So Raven) last film as a child actor. My Mom saw this movie on RedBox and I recently seen it on Youtube and it was definitly incredible and sad at the same time. I recommand this film to anyone who is into Christian Films as well as Coming of Age Movies like Stand by Me (1986), Now and Then (1995), Saved (2004), and Tree of Life (2011).

Born to Be Wild (1995)

The most heartwarming family movie of the 90s.

[5/10 · 2 August 2023]

Born To Be Wild is one of those animal family movies that stands with movies like Free Willy and Mighty Joe Young (the original before the 1998 remake). I first saw this movie when me and my family watched it on videocassette after its release in the same year and rewatched it on DVD back in 2009. And yet, this movie is heartwarming and tear-jerking at the same time. Plus Wil Horneff (the Sandlot, the Ghost in the Machine, the Yearling (1994)) does a brilliant job playing the role of Rick Heller and recieving a Young Artist Award as Best Film Leading Actor in a Feature Film.

If you Love this movie that you grew up in the 90s. This would make you laugh and cry and teach you about love and respect for animals of nature, plus this beloved family movie is filled with adventure for the entire family would enjoy.

The Railway Dragon (1989 TV Movie)

a Charming Yet, Interesting Animated Special

[8/10 · 19 June 2023]

I first discovered this on Youtube back in circa 2008-2009; and to me, it is yet a charming yet interesting animated special that shouldn't be forgotten or anything. This special always reminds me of something out of Steven Spielberg's Anthology Series "Amazing Stories" which definitly is, the characters yet delightful including the Dragon who is like the Grinch and Emily is probably is the Cindy Lou-Who type in my opinion, even the chemistry between Emily and the Dragon is quite remarkable and despite that Emily's parents aren't shown but heard like you see in a Tom and Jerry cartoon or how Christopher Robin's mother from the New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh at some point. Plus it's no surprise that this animated special was from Canada and Leslie Nielsen (Airplane! The Naked Gun films) is quite remarkable as the narrator. Overall this animated special is quite remarkable and charming including the story, the characters and that beautiful music score itself that will blow you away.

The Rainbow Tribe (2008)

a Heartwarming Family Film worth watching

[6/10 · 25 May 2023]

If you are the kind of person who went to Summer Camp back when you were a kid or simply didn't go to Summer Camp back then, the Rainbow Tribe is worth watching and still a great family film and still funny and even heartwarming as well. The plot follows our main character, Morgan with a serious issue going on in his life and he is looking for a way to deal with it. The second story is about six boys at a Summer camp (one who has anger issues, one who is the spoiled rich kind, one who is the silent/mute kind of kid, one who is a nerd, and the other kid). The boys all have different backgrounds, personalities, and problems of their own. The slapstick and jokes in this movie are just hilarious to yet average including some fart jokes that you could find in any family film, even the music score is splendid and this movie is still worth watching and considered to be a new instant classic.

Tiger (I) (1997)

a Real Obscure Family Movie Nobody Talks About in Years

[6/10 · 17 April 2023]

Tiger may be an Obscure and Forgotten Family Film over the past 25 years since its release back when the PS1 console was so popular and this is why no one talks about this movie nowadays. The plot involves a young boy named Josh living with his family in a suburban neighborhood in California and always wanted a dog but his parents played by the late Dana Plato (Different Strokes) and Miles O'Keeffe (Tarzan, the Ape Man) along with his Older Brother and 2 Sisters in which this family is fewer dysfunctional than the Bundys from Married with Children. Just then he finds an Abandon Puppy in the shed after his Mother Dog, and puppy brothers and sister and the Mother Dog's owner leave him behind and Josh names him Tiger and he somehow talks to Josh which is kinda similar to Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey in which some of Dogs and Cats mouths don't move when they talk. Soon enough his Family agrees to keep Tiger and then Tiger gets stolen by two neighborhood boys. The scene between Josh and his older brother John, when they attempt to locate Tiger with the aid of an alien-looking helmet is comical and has a Twilight Zone twist to it. Suffice it to say, Tiger is rescued. Overall Tiger is a really Slow Family Movie and lacks in pulling in an audience of 5 yr olds despite that nobody wants to talk about, the plot and story are just okay and the characters are just stereotypical at best and the voice of Tiger is just bland since it's nothing like in Babe when he gets separated by his Mother and other brother and sister piglets; even the music score is really kind catchy in today's standards and this obscure family movie from the '90s that kids today wouldn't want to experience.

The Puzzle Place (1994–1998)

a Childhood Favorite of Ours from the '90s

[10/10 · 29 March 2023]

The Puzzle Place is probably by far one of my favorite shows on my local PBS Station growing up in the '90s and it features Puppetry and Live Action. This show was like the '90s Generation of Fraggle Rock and a kid version of Friends (in which that greatest sitcom of all time aired on NBC), and throughout every episode the Kids from the Puzzle Place learn valuable life lessons like Sharing, Dealing with Bullies and Racism, Learn about there Culture and Accent and Friendship as well as learning from everyone's mistakes and Problems, even though this show was taken off the air back in 2000 and considered it Lost Media, plus I would like to see this show on DVD and maybe our kids from this Generation would like to expereince it now that we've watch plenty of Shows with Puppetry such as Sesame Street, the Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, Eureeka's Castle, Allerga's Window, Kino's Storytime, Wimzie's House and many others; and of course this Show still has gain a cult following on Youtube over the years and still is too this very day.

The Deadly Spawn (1983)

the Scariest Low Budget Sci-Fi/Horror Movie of all time

[9 February 2023]

"The Deadly Spawn" is probably one of these science fiction/horror movies I've never seen before since its release over 40 years ago and it's no doubt the most scariest and disturbing low-budget science fiction horror movie ever made and considered Douglas McKeown's only time as a film director. The Plot follows when a meteorite crashes to earth and is seen by 2 teenage campers from the beginning of the film and are suddenly attacked and eaten by the Alien that sorta looks like a mix between an Earthworm and H. R. Giger's creation of the Alien movies starting with the first movie released in 1979 and the film itself is set in a new england town to be exact and no surprise that the characters in this movie including Charles a monster movie buff and his older brother Pete has a passion for science and not to mention Charles' uncle is a psychiatrist and the Aunt involving her mother to attend a vegetarian lunch meal. Plus the characters are stereotypical at first and considering how this movie has a low budget, the Creature Design of the Deadly Spawn along with the tadpole version of the Creature looks simply good and creepy and will give you nightmare fuel for years to come and despite that the movie is 80 minutes long and some of the scenes of the victims either eaten by these earthworms like creatures (including Charles and Pete's Uncle and Ellen) are a bit disturbing and brutal and there's even a twist ending. Still, the Deadly Spawn is one of those movies that everyone should probably see just once and I wouldn't want children seeing this movie, becuase this is one scary low-budget sci-fi horror movie you should not watch alone.

The Mean One (2022)

Dr. Seuss is Rolling in his Grave Right Now!

[11 December 2022]

When I first read online that they were making a Christmas Horror Movie based on Dr. Suess' timeless classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas", It really flipped my mind and was like "seriously?!", one thing's for sure is that ever since the failure of the live-action movie adaptation of "the Cat in the Hat"; Audrey Giesel told every movie executive not to adapt any of his classic stories into live-action films and almost 2 decades later, they never listen! The story is just bland and awkward and so are the characters that are literally just stereotypical characters even this movie has a lot of awkward acting, and cheap blood effects and the makeup design of the Mean One looks just plain cheesy and awkward at the same time. Whatever you do fans of this Dr. Suess story, do not see this since he and his wife are rolling in their graves by now and stick with the Original story as well as the Animated Special animated by the legendary Chuck Jones and even the 2000 film version starring Jim Carrey as the Title Character, plus the 2018 animated movie made by the studio that brought us Despicable Me films; it's okay and decent enough for anyone who enjoyed one of Dr. Suess' best-beloved stories both young and old.

Riverdale (2017–2023)

a Great Show for any fan of Archie

[8/10 · 16 November 2022]

I was first hooked on this show when it premiered back in January of 2017 and back when i read some of the archie digest comics back then, the First and Second Season is good and Season 3 was good as well and the later seasons would later get dark and following the death of Luke Perry's (who plays Archie's Father) death in 2019, Cole Sprouse is remarkable at playing Jughead Jones throught the series and as the narrator voiceover in every episode at the beginning that sorta has that Twlight Zone feeling which is fine.

Plus this show truly has some dark elements and even dark moments and similar to Pretty Little Liars and the Vampire Diaries and this is a show that everyone should check out for those who were fans of Archie as well as everyone else when they read the comics.

One Small Hero (1999)

a Very Decent Entertain Family Flick

[5/10 · 25 September 2022]

One Small Hero is one of the most obscure family movies that is probably worth watching for the whole family with a great and delightful moral no matter what size you are or if you are too little. Joey Cooper is your typical protagonist who's willing to be in the Wilderness club and is also a fan of Cool Man (who is a fictional superman similar to Turbo Man from Jingle all the Way) and lives with his widowed Mother after his Father (who was a Firefighter) passed away a few years ago and always keeps a picture of Him and his father all the time since there's no stopping him on not giving up, despite telling his mother the truth that he did not pass the test for the Wilderness club because of his Coach believes he's just too small (and similar the License to Drive when Les Anderson was too embarrassed to tell his parents how he flunked the test.) so then he hides on the bus with the Wilderness Club campers; On the way to the campsite, they are kidnapped by two crooks (lead by this one guy who has a Beard and wears a green camo cap and even makes me think of the Sheriff of Nottingham played by Alan Rickman or something) after the Bus breaks down. One of the campers is the daughter of a senator, and they want him to release their brother from prison in exchange for the girl. Plus there are even some scenes similar to the 3 Home Alone movies (and before the Infamous 4th Home Alone movie that aired on Television) and the movie itself feels like a family version of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves but set in modern times circa 1999 and minus the Violence, Foul Language and other stuff that's found in the movie with Kevin Costner that's rated PG-13; during one scene in this film, Joey Cooper sets out his camping equipment and wears Sarah's purple bandana after she left it behind after she and the classmates are being held hostage which is similar to that scene in Kids of the Round Table (1995), Joey uses his brain rather than relying on physical strength, succeeding in foiling the kidnappers, and freeing all of the campers. He saves them all and becomes one small hero. I first saw this movie on youtube back in 2016 to my major discovery and despite that it had subtitles in Portuguese and it was a really good family film and yet heartwarming at the same time, the story is very good to great, and the characters are good as well and the moral on not to give up and this is the kind of movie to watch with your family and friends and it's a probably a little Popcorn flick with all the little action scenes as well.

Hardflip (2012)

Depressing Movie I've ever seen

[1/10 · 23 August 2022]

I sat about 20-30 minutes of this movie while watching it on Netflix years ago and the scene of Caleb's Mother getting sick from Cancer and nearly Dying feels so depressing and this movie is just not that great but just average!

Home Team (2022)

a Fantastic Fun Flick

[6/10 · 21 August 2022]

In the tradition of "Rudy", "Remember the Titans", "Little Giants", "the Mighty Ducks" and "the Bad News Bears", Home Team is a remarkable family film destined to be a new classic and the only good film released by Happy Madison Prouductions. Kevin James does a brilliant job playing the role as Coach Sean Payton in a movie based on a True Story and seeing Taylor Lautner (better known for playing Jacob Black from the Twilight Saga) returns from his acting career to play the role as Troy Lambert and some the gags and jokes with the kids are quite awkward, funny and even silly at times (i.e. Puking) and there is a ton of swear words that you would find in a Family Movie like the Goonies, if your in the mood for Football Movies like Little Giants and the Longest Yard; check this out and perfect to watch with Family and Friends and quite a generic popcorn flick.

Summer of the Monkeys (1998)

an Unforgotten Heartwarming Family Classic

[6/10 · 20 August 2022]

In the tradition of "Old Yeller", "the Waltons", "Monkey Trouble" and "Dunston Checks In". This heartwarming unforgotten family/animal film will delight both young and old and those who have or haven't read the book that was based off and written by the Author who also wrote "Where the Fern Grows". Director Michael Anderson (the Oscar Winning Director of Around the World in 80 Days and Logan's Run) does a very good job directing this family film, the Cinematography is Magnificent and so out the Costumes, and the acting is very nice and delighted and Screenwriter Jim Strain (the writer for Bingo (1991)) and Greg Taylor (Prancer, Jumanji, Harriet the Spy) did a good job writing and changing the setting to the Canadian Plains in 1910, plus this family film deals with with many issues common to adolescents such as peer relationships, bullies, sibling relationships, conflict with parents, role in the family, accepting responsibility, sharing, caring,and maturing. It also deals with seeing things from another's point of view. It is pertinent to children and bittersweet nostalgic for adults and there are some scenes that will make you laugh, make you cry and put a smile on your face and the whole family will enjoy it as well.

Plus i first saw this movie on videocassette before i read the book and i recommand checking this out for those who read this book and "Where the Red Fern Grows" at local Public Libraries and Public Schools as well, and despite that this was Independent Movie and being released straight to video and distributed by Walt Disney Home Video back in the Holiday Season of 1998.

Threads (1984 TV Movie)

the Most Disturbing yet Post-Apocalyptic Television Movie ever made

[8/10 · 1 August 2022]

I first saw this television movie on Google Video back in 2006 and watch the whole movie on Youtube as parts of it and of course unlike Alfred Hitchcock's "the Birds" (1963) and Fail Safe (1964), this television movie has no music score at all. In a way this released as well as "the Day After" in America as well as the War Game (1966) (which had been deemed too disturbing for television in the 20 years since it had been made).

Plus the Chemestry between Ruth Beckett and Jimmy Kemp is very delightful since we don't get more screen time of Jimmy after Ruth gave birth or seperated after the Attacks, the story is very decent compared to the Day After and there some really disturbing scenes and some that are extremely dark and the narration by the late and great Paul Vaughan is very superb and I wouldn't want to watch this with little kids and thus having nightmares about these scenes from this television movie.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame II (2002 Video)

a Very Good yet Decent Straight-to-Video movie from Disney

[5/10 · 28 July 2022]

The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 is probably a very good yet decent sequel in my opinion. Of course, the animation was okay and not compared to the original movie since this animation was done by Walt Disney Animation Japan, the voices of the characters were very good and songs are very nice despite that the song "Fa-la-la Fallen in love" which has a 1950s rock and roll melody that takes out of place in the middle ages.

Plus it's a decent fun disney sequel to watch with your family who enjoy the first movie released in 1996 and Jennifer Love-Hewitt is remarkable as the voice Quaismodo's love interest, Madelleine.

The Open House (2018)

the most Dreadful Movie I've ever seen!

[1/10 · 26 July 2022]

"the Open House" is one of the worst movies i've ever seen on netflix and pointless as well, the story is bland and so are the characters who are just stereotypical and dreadful.

Chestnut: Hero of Central Park (2004)

a Very Decent Family Movie to watch

[5/10 · 23 June 2022]

I first saw this movie on DVD when I rented it at Blockbuster back in 2009 and it was decent and heartwarming. The Story is decent, the characters are good as well, and the Chemistry between Chestnut (who is a Great Dane) and Sal and Ray is heartwarming and remarkable. If you like "Bingo" (1991), "Free Willy", "Shiloh", "Beethoven", "Andre" and "Monkey Trouble", you'll enjoy it as much as kids will and Dog Lovers as well.

Trading Mom (1994)

a very decent yet okay and silly family movie that's not great

[5/10 · 4 May 2022]

Trading Mom was the kind of movie I remember watching back on videocassette with my family and despite it being based on the book that I have never read in years and remember seeing the movie again on the Disney channel in the mid to late 1990s. And still it's very decent and okay. Plus Sissy Spacek often play all of the roles compared to Eddie Murphy's characters in "Coming to America" as well as Tony Randell's characters in "the 7 Faces of Dr. Loa" even the chemistry between Elizabeth and her two brothers (Jeremy and Harry who are played by Aaron Michael Metchik and Asher Metchik who played brothers Harry and Jeremy are also brothers in real life) is very sweet and remarkable, the characters are probably from maybe poorly written, not so great to stereotypical and the movie itself doesn't hold up well despite it not having a DVD and Blu-ray release and of course this film was Andre the Giant's last film role in which he plays the Circus Strongman in this film after he passed away on January 27th, 1993 just a year before the film's released a year later and the whole movie itself has that "it was all a dream cliché" since the kids felt there search for a new mom was actually a dream all along compared to North (1994); plus there is this "Work alcoholic Parent" cliché, the "get Grounded" cliché, and the "Be Careful what you wish for" cliché that's happened before including in "Wizards of Waverly Place: the Movie" (2009) and in "Liar Liar" (1997) starring Jim Carrey; and the film itself also had a fecal matter joke, and the bottom line to this film is that no matter what you parents say "you know if they're kind of hard on you sometimes they're trying to do there best they want to do your best" and this film shows that and insured it shows the bond between children and their mother appeals that know just because they may boss you around may tell you what to do they're only doing it just because they love you and they want you to do there best and that's what exactly this movie is about despite how this obscure family movie doesn't hold up very much.

The Package (II) (2018)

What the Hell Did I just Watch?!

[4/10 · 21 February 2022]

I barely sat throughout this whole movie and i completely lost my mind with all these completely freak scenes, the story is totally bland to average, the characters are just stereotypically, and the jokes are just weird and complete insane as well as the pop-culture references (i.e. Justin Bieber) and i recommend not seeing this movie (if any of you are traumatized) or watch it only once!

Sesame Songs: Sing-Along Earth Songs (1993 Video)

a Childhood Favorite of Mine that taught be about Environmentalism

[7/10 · 31 January 2022]

As a youngling, I used to love watching Sesame Street growing up (most pacifically the classics) on my local PBS station. And this videocassette i had growing up along with this and Richard Scarry's Best Counting Video Ever! Really taught me about Environmentalism related stuff like Littering, Water Pollution, respect and take care of the plants, Recycling to Wasting Water; I watch this video all the time as a kid along with sister and still am learning to take care of the earth today much like other shows that have an Environmental Message such as "Captain Planet" and gotta love how Big Bird (played by the late and great Caroll Spinney) sings "What a Gift" near the end of this videocassette which is a clip from the Show itself.
