 D3: The Mighty Ducks : Mr. Cranky Rates the Movies : D3: The Mighty Ducks
In one of the film's many incongruous scenes, Hans up and dies because Charlie asks him if he "feels okay." In a kids' film, asking an old person if he "feels okay" is tantamount to personally ripping his heart out of his chest and devouring it.
In the original "Mighty Ducks," Gordon (Estevez) would visit to seek wisdom -- now Charlie goes to see him every time he forgets how to unzip his pants to take a leak.
Was the director just trying to throw me off by setting up a conflict between the Ducks and the Eden Varsity team,then resolving it with the unexpected vehicle of a hockey game?

 Rambles: A Mighty Wind
A Mighty Wind is not director Christopher Guest's third film, though one might think that after all the comparisons to his Waiting for Guffman and Best of Show.
At the top of the song list are the much-performed "Never Did No Wanderin'," which lampoons the folk-circuit's obsession with songs about rambling, and "Barnyard Symphony," which seems designed to drive a well-deserved stake through the heart of audience-participation songs.
But what ultimately makes Wind work is the music, written by the pseudo-folk artists themselves and performed with a gusto that captures the best and worst of folk concerts then and now.

 The Hunted Review Movie Review Film The Hunted: Tommy Lee Jones, Benicio Del Toro, Connie Nielsen, Leslie Stefanson, Jenna Boyd; Review by Frank Ochieng; movie reviews, movie posters, celebrity addresses
The Hunted is indeed a stylized attention-getter and some will argue that the scattered doses of implausibility and the extended stages of the vulgar violence is the real clogged heart behind this overindulgent suspense piece.
But when all is said and done, The Hunted is half-hearted material that never is completely compelling or invigorating to overcome its painfully elementary premise that unwisely crosses the likes of Rambo with Jones's 1993 hit The Fugitive.
For obvious reasons, Abby feels mighty affected by Hallam's killings and will lead the search vigorously regardless of the interference that big shot sidekick Bonham poses.

 PCRM>>Commentary>>McDonald's Wrong to Use Narnia Film to Sell Unhealthy Food
For example, if a kid buys a Mighty Kids Meal consisting of a Double Cheeseburger, small French fries, and a jug of low-fat chocolate milk, he or she will consume a whopping 850 calories, 36 grams of fat, 90 milligrams of cholesterol, and 1,430 milligrams of sodium.
The giant burger chain is including Narnia figurines and picture books with its “Mighty Kids Meal,” which features such high-fat, high-cholesterol food items as a Double Cheeseburger or a half-dozen Chicken McNuggets.
A wide range of scientific studies suggest that moving to a low-fat, plant-based diet would dramatically improve our children’s health, reducing their risk of obesity and diabetes and, as they reach adulthood, the danger of heart disease.

Hercules then has to choose between his mighty strength to return to his real parents the Gods and his true love a Grecian beauty Meg, to then learn that it isn't the amount of strenght that he has to prove or show, but it is the strenght of his heart.
Hercules is a brill disney film for all ages, my friends and I are all 17 and we all love singing along to the groovy songs from this film.

 2003 Film Journals - Arts and Faith
But there is such an obvious void at the heart of the film, a lack of the profound weight that Raiders carried.
I've seen many films that are arguably greater works of art than these--Ordet, Andrei Rublev, The Mirror, The Godfather series...
Fun, nicely done, and if it fit in tone with the other films I probably would like it better.

 The Motorcycle Diaries DVD Review at The Z Review UK DVD reviews
Alberto’s attachment to his beloved 1939 Norton 500 is charming and his gift of the gab with everyone, especially women, provides the film with a real heart warming feel.
While Alberto is the comedic element of the film, there is still a noticeable change in the character’s thinking and approach to life, especially after the pair work in the leprosy colony.
Alberto had planned an epic journey, on his motorcycle & Mighty One”, that would take them from their Buenos Aires home in Argentina, through Chile, Peru, Columbia and finishing in Venezuela.

 dOc DVD Review: Tokyo Godfathers (2003)
Image Transfer Review: Due to the lower budget, an animated Japanese film like Tokyo Godfathers will never look as good as digitally transferred Disney fare, but the image on this disc is still mighty fine.
Kon's new film is a near-perfect piece of animation, a lavishly detailed production full of heart and humor, a blend of realism and the magical that feels totally authentic—almost like it could be live action—but is a clear triumph of the form.
It's a fine interview, but the setting is bizarre (a totally white room, with white chairs) and the camera work, schizophrenic (why must interview footage be filmed at an angle from the corner of the ceiling?).

As with Stanton's other writing efforts, Finding Nemo offered the kind of compelling and sympathetic characters not usually present in animated fare, and with his experience as a father providing the emotional heart of the film, almost everyone could find something to relate to in Finding Nemo.
The film was inspired by a fleeting moment of realization in which Stanton observed that his overprotective fatherly instincts were preventing him from properly bonding with his son.
As the decade drew to a close, Stanton also worked as a writer for animation legend Ralph Bakshi's Mighty Mouse, the New Adventures.

 Review - Tron 2.0 // PC /// Eurogamer
Tron 2.0 is a very simple, very harmless FPS at heart and the distinctions between this and your average common-or-garden shooter are subtle.
Tron was a beautiful film that likely wouldn't get more than a passing glance from Hollywood-loving oiks these days, but if you grew up with it like me, then the very prospect of experiencing Disney's unusual adventure from the inside would be impossible to pass up.
The AI of most enemies is also a little rubbish at times, with 'tactics' boiling down to their hiding behind blocks until you come for them, or running straight after you until they inevitably derez thanks to you thwacking them about the bonce with your mighty disc of whoop.
