The Secret Life of Pets 2 - Movie Review

History

I picked up the first Secret Life of Pets movie when the digital code was very cheap. I believe it was a 2 for $5 at the time. The movie was better than I expected. Being a completist with may things, I felt the need to pick up Secret Life of Pets 2 to complete the collection. It helped that it came out the same time as Godzilla: King of the Monsters. 

Review

Patton Oswalt is a great comedic actor and voice actor. His most famous voice acting being Ratatouille. Who could resist watching his character meet Harrison Ford's serious character in this movie. Harrison's character reminded me a lot of his character in Six Days Seven Nights. I was actually surprised that this was only part of the movie. There is a second story happening at the same time. Both stories merge about a two thirds of the way through in a satisfying way.

I have to admit, I initially put on the movie to test out my affordable theater room that I plan to post about soon. The movie's story and pace kept me interested and I ended up finishing it when I had only intended to make sure the projector's focus and alignment work working. I think many people will find at least one thing in this movie that will keep them interested in watching it until the end.

Rating

I would rate this at least a SD movie. It is worth picking up for under $7 in HD. I was able to pick up my HD copy for $7 at Family Video with their buy three for $21.

The Flash - Movie Review

 Surprise Ticket I recently purchased The Doom That Came To Gotham and Justice League x RWBY animated movies that were on sale at Vudu this week.  I received a bonus of $8 off to go see The Flash movie from each movie.  So both my brother and I utilized the discounts for a rare trip to the movies.  Of the two animated movies I purchased, I highly recommend the Justice League x RWBY crossover movie even though it is Part 1 and Part 2 does not currently have a release date yet. Review While The Flash movie was decent, positive reviewers of the movie have obviously not seen The Flash TV series that just completed its run on The CW network.  The story in the movie and the special effects were much better in the TV series than in this movie.  Obviously, TV series has a longer time to tell a story.  Some of the movie’s special effects looked like they were from a couple of decades ago.  While this was only mildly distracting from the movie, it is defini...

Disney+ On Disc

  Change Is Coming Recently Disney+ has been cancelling content like the Willow series among other content on their service. This has given me pause as to what will happen to this content if you want to watch it. Series like the Mandalorian and the final season of Clone Wars were on available through the streaming service. The new idea that this content might eventually be removed from the service to never be seen again was a real possibility. Now we have some hope. I recently received an emailed from Marvel Entertainment. Generally, I would take a quick look and discard it but this one I had to look into more. The link pointed towards Best Buy or Walmart to preorder but I did find Loki Season 1 and WandaVision Season 1 available on Amazon. My hopes started to get raised. So with some quick searches, I did find in fact the Mandalorian Season 1 and 2 will be released on disc later this year. Here are the release dates per the email and what I found at the retailers. Loki - September...

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes - Movie Review

  New vs Old The original 1968 started a series of five movies the last being Battle for the Planet of the Apes . The current series started with the 2011 Rise of the Planet of the Apes  with Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes  the fourth in the series. While similar in concept, I do not anticipate Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes  to be the last in this new series. The original series focused on what I consider the human’s side of the story. The current series focuses on the ape’s side of the story. Based on the ending, I suspect there will be another movie to come. Review You care for the characters and the story moves at a good pace. You hardly notice it is nearly a 2.5 hour movie. You can watch the movie for simply the entertainment or you can find a message about coexisting. There are several surprises in the movie which is something I look forward to since I have seen way too many movies. I appreciate the cinematography in this film as way too many movies get t...
