They are mistaken for Aztec gods and must keep up their farce in order to leave with some gold, and their heads.
It comments on the way some cultures are explored by explorers and in its subtle way, teaches us to open out minds and eyes to the ways of others.
A beautiful tale of fun and friendship, the humour is great for kids, with some adult jokes in there to keep the parents entertained too.
One of DreamWorks great animated films, it is a must for all ages.

The Plot: Sebastian Cabot narrates the adventures of bumbling bear Winnie the Pooh as he battles a nest of vicious bees over a trove of honey, weathers a terrible wind storm and endures the foibles of the hyperactive tiger Tigger, all while singing and bumbling his way through the Hundred Acre Wood. Kanga, Piglet, Owl, Rabbit and Eeyore round out the menagerie in this trio of animated tales adapted from A.A. Milne's celebrated series of children's books.
I also love Piglet, Tigger and Eeyore.
A classic movie, with adorable and lovely charcters.

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.

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
