Bostonian916 (449 KP) rated Artemis Fowl (2020) in Movies
Jun 26, 2020
Artemis Fowl was intended to be a Summer Hit for Disney until the world got his with a pandemic. As a result, it was released straight to Disney's streamer with relatively lackluster fanfare.
I now see why there wasn't much excitement surrounding the release.
Artemis Fowl is a classic example of money not being able to make everything better.
The movie tries to explain itself haphazardly and never actually gets around to doing so. Anybody new to the story line with mightily struggle trying to understand what is happening and why. Anyone who is familiar with the story will wonder how they got to this movie from the source material.
I have an eight year old and a ten year old and they both thought the movie was "meh." I think that was being gracious.

May 29, 2021 (Updated May 30, 2021)
On to the movie no spoilers here probably my favourite movie at cineworld this year so far. emna stone as cruella is brilliant In the role been a fan since she was in superbad now let's get to emma Thompson who also brilliant and loves haming it up as baroness totally evil and she knows it. Not forgetting both Joel fry and Paul Walter hauser as jasper and horace who also brillant. overall good movie worth the watch stay to the end credits for extra scene which I won't give away but will u get it

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated Go On by Phillip Sandifer in Music
Jul 11, 2019
Phillip was born in Baltimore, Maryland but moved to Texas as a young man. He can take credit for 22 top 40 Adult Contemporary songs. He has made recordings for a number of different labels, including Disney Records. With Seen Too Much, he makes a much needed statement about cognitive dissonance in society today and maybe clears the air a bit for those of us paying attention.
“I ain’t sleeping well, there just too much wrong
won’t someone help me with an honest song”
— Phillip Sandifer
I think perhaps we have all seen a bit too much in these last few years. I'm glad there are people writing about it.

David McK (3562 KP) rated Lady and the Tramp (2019) in Movies
May 16, 2020
Sticking pretty faithfully to the same beats as the animated original - spoiled Cocker Spaniel, Street Dog, the famous Spaghettis scene (which I can't watch now without thinking of the version with Santa's Little Helper in The Simpsons) - this nonetheless does slightly change parts of the story, with the most noticeable (to me) being the Siamese Cats, who here have a completely new song but are still responsible for Lady ending up on the streets (see, I told you: all Cats are evil!).
