 | | 8. Bugs Life (Blu-ray) | | | Starring: Dave Foley Julia Louis-Dreyfus Director: John Lasseter | | Format: Blu-Ray DVD Release Date: 5/19/2009 |  | A Bug's Life - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: The Masked Movie Snobs - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 5/31/2009 8:18 PM | | Released in 1998, A Bug’s Life was Pixar’s second animated feature. The film had high expectations after the huge success of Toy Story. While I think that Toy Story is the better film, A Bug’s Life tells an imaginative story that can be enjoyed by the whole family. A Bug’s Life is a cross between Aesop's fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper” and The Seven Samurai-based comedy The Three Amigos. The ants spend their time working hard harvesting food for the lazy grasshoppers. One of the ants in the colony, Flik (Dave Foley), building inventions designed to make the work easier. However, his latest causes the destruction of the entire harvest. read the full review | |

 | | 26. Lilo and Stitch Big Wave Edition | | | Director: Dean DeBlois Chris Sanders | | Format: DVD Release Date: 3/24/2009 |  | Lilo and Stitch - 2-Disc Big Wave Edition - DVD Review By: The Masked Movie Snobs - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 3/30/2009 5:58 AM | | On March 24th Disney released Lilo & Stitch in a 2-Disc Big Wave edition. This 85-minute animated film was a huge success when it was released in June of 2002, and is still an interesting and visually exciting film, but this new release appears to be, well, stitched together. Lilo & Stitch take the E.T. formula and turns it upside down as the aggressive and nearly indestructible genetic experiment 626 escapes his prison sentence, makes his way to Earth, and is adopted by the also aggressive Lilo, who loves her unusual-looking dog. read the full review | |

 | | 38. A Bugs Life (Collectors Edition) | | | Starring: Dave Foley Julia Louis-Dreyfus Director: John Lasseter | | Format: DVD Release Date: 5/16/2008 |  | A Bug's Life - DVD Review By: Christopher Null - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 5/8/2009 5:39 PM | |
Disney/Pixar's remake of, ironically, Three Amigos!, is redone with bugs and animated via computer. When meanie grasshoppers (headed by Kevin Spacey) threaten the anthill, well-intentioned clutz Flik (Dave Foley) goes on a crusade to find help. He ends up recruiting a bunch of circus performers instead of real heroes to help the cause. Wacky hijinks ensue. It's a good story (though not as deep as Antz), has genuinely funny characters (much funnier than Antz), and is certainly good for the whole family (unlike Antz altogether). read the full review | |

 | | 41. Lilo and Stitch | | | Director: Chris Sanders Dean DeBlois | | Format: DVD Release Date: 2/15/2008 | User Rating: 4 |  | Lilo and Stitch - DVD Review By: David Levine - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 3/13/2009 5:38 PM | |
There are three essential elements for a polished Disney animated film: rich and detailed animation, inspirational music that is catchy and clever, and a clear message that is easy to understand. Alas, Disneys latest, Lilo and Stitch, fails to live up to any of these. Lilo and Stitch tells the story of two outcasts searching for a place to fit in. Lilo is a young Hawaiian girl who is shunned by her friends because she picks fights and plays unfairly. Her older sister, Nani, is raising her because their parents died in a car crash. The social worker assigned to their case has threatened to remove Lilo from Nanis care because she cannot control Lilos poor behavior. read the full review | |
