Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Posted on February 15, 2020 by ~mw~

Released 11/18/2016                              Rated: PG-13 The difficult thing about this franchise is that we’re coming off of Harry Potter, a series well established before the films even made it to the screen. With Fantastic Beasts all we’re getting is the screenplay … Continue reading →

Posted on October 14, 2018 by ~mw~

Released 09/21/2018                              Rated: PG When I first saw the trailer I was like “What is this? This looks awesome!” A kid’s movie, but awesome nonetheless. I’d never heard of the book before, and didn’t even realize it was one until … Continue reading →

Released 10/16/1998                              Rated: PG-13 This movie has been labeled a romantic comedy, but I have not tagged it as such because I do not believe that label is justified. A rom-com, as some people like to shorten it, is where … Continue reading →

The Deathly Hallows Part 1 Released 11/19/2010                              Rated PG-13 Very few points I wish they’d done with Part 1. The first is the fact that things important to the story here at the end have either been altered or cut … Continue reading →

Posted on February 3, 2011 by ~mw~

Released 11/16/01                        Rated: PG Who doesn’t love the Harry Potter series? Honestly. If you haven’t read the books, I recommend them. Even if you’ve only seen the films, read the books. There’s so much more involved in the … Continue reading →
