excellent animation

fun, unexpected characters

I found the story in this movie to be a fun twist on the typical "alien" movie . . . we are the aliens this time! Strong message of giving your all to help others and accepting those who are different from you. The entire family will enjoy this movie together! Extremely well done!

Toy Story Rated G Toy Story 2 Rated G |

each includes a special exclusive sneak peek at Toy Story 3

Toy Story and Toy Story 2 set the standard for computer generated animation and for telling a story children and adults will love! My children grew up with these stories and now my grandchild will be able to enjoy the new Toy Story 3! Strong messages of accepting and helping others and the value of friends and family. You can not go wrong with these two movies and every family should have their own copy . . . that they are available on Blue Ray is a bonus! Tremendously well done!

new character - first time the heroine is a black girl - tremendously well done!

I love the unique characters, lively music, deep colors and the strong messages of what really matters - family, love and friendship. I didn't like the voodoo themes and found them very intense and frightening - I'm surprised this movie was able to get a G rating - I think a PG would be more appropriate due to the intense and frightening scenes. I do appreciate that the voodoo was presented as the "bad" it is and the main character chose wisely to turn away from it, but would have liked to see more imagination in the storyline that would have allowed for some other "bad" guy - one not entrenched in voodoo. The movie overall is presented with the old Disney storytelling I grew up with. I liked the creative twist to the old Princess and the Frog story, but would definitely recommend that parents watch this movie with their children and talk about the things they see in it. Overall, it is extremely well done.

Old Dogs Rated PG - for some mild rude humor |
-
Favorite Features -
-
now available on blue ray/dvd/digital copy combo packs
-
strong messages about family and friendship and forgiveness
-
Old Dogs incorporates a heavy dose of humor - which with Robin Williams I wouldn't have expected anything else. Definitely some silly portions, but overall, this is a story the family will laugh over together. Very nicely done!

Delirious? Farewell Show: Live in London |
 |
- Favorite Features -
- two-disc set with 24 Delirious? songs
- available as a DVD and Blu-ray of the concert as well
- excellent mix of powerful praise songs like "I Could Sing of Your Love Forever", "Shout to the North", "Thank You for Saving Me" and "Majesty" while rocking with favorites like "Deeper", "Sanctify", "HistoryMaker" and the "Happy Song"
Fans of Delirious? as well as those who are not familiar with the group will love this Farewell Show! I wasn't really familiar with Delirious? but recognized most of the songs on this cd - many of them are sung in churches across the country and even around the world. Powerful lyrics combined with truly excellent music make for a cd sure to be a favorite. It is certain these songs will continue to encourage and challenge all who hear them for many, many years - if not decades - to come. Tremendously well done!
