When you think of Winnie the Pooh you always think of the red shirt, big belly, and the cute face. Well that’s exactly what Winnie the Pooh was. Disney brought it to life like no one else ever could.
Through the hundred acre forest, across the river, and over the mountains. The movie is all about Winnie the Pooh and his friends: Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl, Kanga, and her baby, Roo, and of course you can’t forget, the one and only, Christopher Robin.
I loved every detail about this movie! Especially the cartoon, it’s exactly out of the book. Also, Winnie talks to you, which is really cute. Disney did their magic, and waved their wands, and out three stories together.
I am going to warn you right now, the movie is only about one hour and thirteen minutes. I went to go see it with my dad, sister, and BFF, and we were very surprised that it ended so early, but, that’s coming from a girl who has sat through Avatar (a three hour movie).
It is the perfect length for your toddler. I don’t know if your kid my age would want to see Winnie the Pooh, but me just being me, I have always loved Winnie the Pooh, so when my mom offered me, I couldn’t take down the offer (LOL)!!!
The one thing I would change about seeing the movie was, to see it with my mom (sorry dad), because we have always been Pooh lovers. Haha. Love you mom.
P.S. There is a really cute movie before Winnie the Pooh called The Ballad of Nessie.
P.S.S. Check out this fun video clip that shows the voices of the characters!!!

My sister (a.k.a. Mini Sharpay) were very fortunate to get to watch it and review it, we absolutely loved it! I mean, who wouldn’t.
As a tomboy, I found this movie quite interesting and a moving story. Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure is about Sharpay, a girl who loves pink and sparkles, and her dog, Boi. She gets an offer to audition for a Broadway show to which she cannot say no. After convincing her dad, she goes to New York to live. But, there is one problem--she only has one month to prove to her dad that she can make up her mind and decide what she wants to be. Thinking the audition is for her, she arrives and finds out that the audition is for her dog, Boi. Even though she is disappointed, she still does the audition, singing with her dog. She does great, but there is one problem, there is another person and his dog who also want the part. In New York, she meets cute Peyton who helps her through thick and thin. They slowly become friends, and soon, a couple.
This blu-ray combo pack also includes a blu-ray disc and a regualr DVD disc that you can pop into your car for a long drive. One of my favorite parts is the behind the scenes with Peyton when he takes you on his adventures with Sharpay. See the great video featuring Sharpay that he took for his class at NYU.
There are many great features, including bonus features, sneak peaks, and many other wonderful extras. I hope that you all enjoy it as much as our family did!
My girls and I saw The Sorcerer's Apprentice in a nice, cool movie theater and loved it!
The movie is based loosely on the Fantasia animated movie, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, that stars none other than Mickey Mouse. In this version, Nicholas Cage plays the sorcerer and one of Merlin's apprentices. Let me just say that I couldn't quite see Nicholas Cage in this role, but he turned out to be perfect.

My daughters and I recently attended a sneak peek screening of The Sorcerer's Apprentice, the new movie by Jerry Bruckheimer or, as known in our house, the daddy of The Pirates of the Caribbean. The movie is based loosely on the Fantasia animated movie, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, that stars none other than Mickey Mouse. In this version, Nicholas Cage plays the sorcerer and one of Merlin's apprentices. (see official synopsis below) Let me just say that I couldn't quite see Nicholas Cage in this role, but he turned out to be perfect for the role. I guess having a five year old running around his house has softened the Cage's edge. Jay Baruchel as the apprentice was a fun casting choice. I loved him in Knocked Up. He is like a young Ben Stiller-just looking at him makes me smile. My girls loved Teresa Palmer at the girlfriend.
The details of the story were hard for my girls to grasp (The whole Merlin descendant thing) but they enjoyed it just the same. It is a perfect summer movie that starts moving from the moment you sit down. My favorite scene was an ode to the original film. I think 8 years old is about the youngest I would take, although some people had their toddlers watching it. But who cares what I think? The real reviewers (my daughters) have written their reviews below:
From my nine-year old, Kitty Kat:
I remember that when I was five, one of my favorite movies was The Sorcerer's Apprentice in Fantasia, so I connected the movies to each other.What I really liked about this version of The Sorcerer's Apprentice was that they used the Fantasia version in the middle of the movie. They also used that story and created an outside world or story based on the Mickey Mouse version. They added A LOT of action which made more scary and interesting. On the other hand, Nicholas Cage made it funny. I would rate it 91/2 out of 10.
From my eight-year old, Sara Cinema
I think that The Sorcerer's Apprentice is a great action movie! If I was a mom, I would only allow a child that's older than 7 or 8 to see it. I think that there is a huge difference between the Mickey Mouse Sorcerer's Apprentice and the new Sorcerer's Apprentice! But I also am a person that does not like cartoon movies or videos. If your chid/children like action, this is the right movie for them! I would rate this movie one million!
Official Synopsis
Walt Disney Studios, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Jon Turteltaub, the creators of the “National Treasure” franchise, present THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE -- an innovative and epic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the center of an ancient conflict between good and evil. Balthazar Blake (NICOLAS CAGE) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (ALFRED MOLINA). Balthazar can't do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (JAY BARUCHEL), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It'll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE.
The motion picture reunites Nicolas Cage, Jerry Bruckheimer and Jon Turteltaub, respectively the star, producer and director of the blockbusters “National Treasure” and “National Treasure: Book of Secrets.” “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” marks Nicolas Cage’s seventh collaboration with Jerry Bruckheimer, following “The Rock,” “Con Air,” “Gone in 60 Seconds,” “National Treasure,” “National Treasure: Book of Secrets” and “G-Force”).

My 7 and 8 year old daughters loved this DVD set. I have to say that the Jonas Rockin' the House is not nearly as annoying as their music is. The shows always have a good lesson to be learned and the characters, even though they are rock starts in the show, still seem fairly humble annd nice kids.I would recommend the show for kids 8-14.
