Hannah Montana: The Movie acted as my official introduction to the identity crisis that is Miley Cyrus and her pop-music-powered alter ego. I have two boys, after all. The farthest we've ventured down Disney's empowered-female food chain is Kim Possible (which, for the record, deserves its own live-action film adaptation in the vein of Tomb Raider, yet better). But now, at least, I understand the hoopla surrounding this spunky, cool, and charismatic young performer. Her overly produced musical anthems aren't my cup of tea, but I get why so many people line up to drink what she's serving. read the full review | |

 | | 14. Secondhand Lions (Platinum Series) | | | Starring: Michael Caine Robert Duvall Director: Tim McCanlies | | Format: DVD Release Date: 9/12/2006 | User Rating: 5 | | Secondhand Lions - DVD Review By: Sean O'Connell - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 11/20/2009 6:42 PM | |
Like a similar creature that patrols a certain Yellow Brick Road, Tim McCanlies’ Secondhand Lions is in dire need of a shot of courage. It’s scary to think of how much better this king of the jungle could’ve been had it possessed the sharp teeth of its animal namesake and took a serious bite out of the plump themes of family greed, lost love and misspent youth. What we’re left with are recycled kitten swipes taken by a family-friendly charmer that’s content to coast by on the casting coup of landing Michael Caine and Robert Duvall under one cinematic roof. read the full review | |

Slumdog Millionaire | | | Starring: Anil Kapoor Dev Patel Director: Danny Boyle | | Format: DVD Release Date: 3/31/2009 | | User Rating: 5 | | Video Reviews Available: 2 | | Slumdog Millionaire - DVD Review By: Robert M. Barga - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 4/5/2009 6:38 PM | | Last year, one movie captured America’s hearts and minds. The movie, which was on the path to nowhere (straight-to-DVD release), reached out and was seen by millions of people across the country. The same movie won eight Academy Awards, the most for a single movie since the Lord of the Rings series. That very same movie is now available on Blu-ray and standard DVD. Yes, America, Slumdog Millionaire has just been released for you to own. read the full review | |

 | | 37. Pinocchio-70th Anniversary | | | Director: Ben Sharpsteen Hamilton Luske | | Format: DVD Release Date: 3/10/2009 | | User Rating: 5 | | Pinocchio (1940) - DVD Review By: Christopher Null - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 2/27/2009 5:25 PM | |
Walt Disney doesn't make 'em like this any more. Hell, they didn't make 'em like this for very long at all. Disney's second feature after Snow White, Pinocchio is a scary and perplexing "children's movie." How so? Jiminy Cricket is a voyeur and a womanizer (even of fish). Gepetto builds sadistic cuckoo clocks with women spanking bare-assed children. When inexplicably swallowed by a whale, he even overfishes the whale's belly for all the tuna it swallowed, not realizing his wooden son is in the water. The blue fairy is mean and vindictive. Even the fish Cleo blows smoke rings. read the full review | |

 | | 42. Hannah Montana: The Movie (DVD+Blu-ray+Digital Copy) | | | Starring: Miley Cyrus Billy Ray Cyrus Director: Peter Chelsom | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 8/18/2009 | | Hannah Montana: The Movie - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Ed Perkis - Cinema Blend DVD Reviews Published on: 8/14/2009 1:15 PM | | Its not like Disney is going to kill the golden goose by having a Hannah Montana movie be anything but a bigger version of the television show. It would have been more interesting, however, to do SOMETHING different or unique or daring with the character. Instead, the G-rated good times include lots of falling off ladders, falling into hay piles, falling off horses, and ferrets running up the mayors pants leg...seriously. In between, Miley gets into trouble by never acting rationally or intelligently in any situation. read the full review | |
