My Little Pony: The Princess Promenade (2006)
stunning...
I was watching my two nieces at their house and they insisted on watching this movie, which they apparently owned. I figured, hey, it will save me some trouble. So I go to play the movie and am shocked to find this is not just another typical children's movie, but a modern work of art.
Right from the beginning, I found myself drawn in by the unique and refreshing character designs. Not only did the jovial mise-en-scene create a strong sense of attachment, but the story was unlike anything I had ever seen. The twists, the character interactions, it was all so heart-warming and perfect. The end of the film was an emotional climax, and one of the few times I have ever cried to a movie.
Some people do not believe any one film can ever be perfect, but My Little Pony: The Princess Promenade would certainly be as close as anything can get. It saddens me that so many people have judged this book by its cover (or should I say, film by its box art!) and simply dismissed this as being another trivial cash-in in the crowded children's film market. These people are missing out on one of the greatest stories I have ever had the chance to witness. The film's dynamic appeal to young and old audiences alike is unique and welcome. If you are looking for a piece of cinematography which is an absolute joy, The Princess Promenade is for you.
Snakes on a Plane (2006)
Spits in the face of the common action film
I was lucky enough to get an 11:30 viewing on Thursday the 17th; it was amazing to say the least. The audience was comprised of extremely anticipating fans such as myself, and in the back of my mind I was terrified that the movie would have been over-hyped and a severe letdown. Me, as well as the rest of the crowd, were very pleased. The film doesn't ever lose it's pace, and well-timed comic relief synchronizes perfectly with the bloody suspense in the air. The first victims of the snakes is incredibly memorable, and when Samuel L. Jackson delivers his instantly famous line, regarding his irritability with these mother-loving snakes on this mother-loving plane, it doesn't take a genius to realize this movie is going to be a classic for years to come.
