‘The Little Mermaid’ movie review

Disney does it right with this live action remake! The expected lush colors and whimsical scenes are all there to dazzle your eyes. I actually don’t recall if I’ve ever completely seen the original animated movie. Halle does a great job of the reinvisioning of the character and Disney includes all cultures. There are a few dark scenes so the littles may close their eyes a couple times. I saw it in IMAX and it was great; I may see it again in 3D.

‘Block Party’ Movie Review

I really enjoyed this funny (some profanity) cultural storyline about an annual event that coincides with Juneteenth. Simple storyline yet fun to watch. If you’re from MI, specifically Grand Rapids there are several drops of the legendary DeBarge family (I thought there would be a cameo) and Marvin Sapp (gospel singer). 80’s music played a lot and it was enjoyable. Playing in theatres for a limited run then showing on BET+.

‘Top Gun: Maverick’ Movie Review

I recently re-watched the original film so I could connect quickly to this sequel released 36 years later, wow, no disappointments. The storyline is similar and predictable yet more in depth. Big thunderous flying scenes that are awesome (time and technology definitely made these better) in the IMAX format (which is suggested). I plan to see it again probably in Dolby. Definitely worth checking out.

‘Eternals’ Movie Review

A brand new crew to the MCU world is being introduced in this film. Ten were introduced yet they don’t all survive this film. Because I’m not a comic book enthusiast, I knew/know nothing about the Eternals. I’m glad Thanos attack and the war against him was acknowledged (why didn’t they help?) There were back stories of each character yet I’m still a bit unclear of the intention of a few of them. And, Thanos’ brother is introduced…and “John Snow” of G.O.T. is introduced firstly quite human but that changes, lol. Not much of Dane in this film yet I couldn’t imagine John Snow (Kit) not having a bigger role. So, I look forward to seeing the continue journey of this crew and how eventually they will mesh with The Avengers (or at 3 of the Eternals). I saw it in IMAX which was great! Yes, there are 2 end credit scenes and both are great!

The capers of Peter continue as his human parents get married yet he still can’t keep out of trouble. Fun and funny for a family outing.

‘In the Heights’ Movie Review

Musicals are either a hit or miss for me, this one is a hit! I had heard great things about this movie/musical yet I was pleasantly surprised that I liked it. The music, singing, dancing and storyline kept me engaged. The IMAX experience was great!

‘Mariah Carey’s Magical Christmas Special’ via Apple TV+ review

Mariah would have to be the Queen of Christmas music! I purchased the “All I Want For Christmas” cd back in 1994 and I knew it was an instant classic. This musical special is delightful with great singing with a few special guest stars.

‘Ruthless’ Streaming Series

ruthless

This is a another television series created by Tyler Perry. A spinoff from ‘The Oval’ that airs on the B.E.T. network this series is about a cult that specifically kidnaps children of parents on their compound. The pilot episode aired on B.E.T. to tease viewers to subscribe to B.E.T. Plus streaming service where this series airs (1-week free trial). I was curious to find out more so I watched the final seven episodes on the streaming service. Held my attention and it’s possibly a series I would like to keep up with (Season 1 – 8 episodes approx. 40 minutes each). Mature episodes.

‘I Still Believe’ Movie Review

I still belive

Based on true story about Christian singer Jeremy Camp, he struggles with keeping his faith while watching the love of his life fight for her life. Definitely a tear jerker and a good family and faith based movie to see.

‘Jesus is King’ Movie Review

Jesus is King

Other than a “short film” which is usually animated, you will probably never see another film this short, that is 31 minutes long. This is the big screen view for the world to see a snippet of Kanye Wests’ Sunday service. Quite frankly it was anointed from beginning to end. Too bad I didn’t make it to performance in Detroit. The focus is Jesus’ Word through music and it remains there.
