Spiderwick Chronicles (2008)

Troll leader
You probably haven't seen this movie, but it's called Spiderwick Chronicles.

It's about a  person who makes this book that trolls want, but one day he gets drifted off by magical creatures and a boy, his mom, his sister and his brother move in the house. But they don't know about the book so they await the dangers of the magical book.

There are a lot of fantasy creatures like trolls, griffins, flying flowers, magical sprites and other amazing creatures. The end is happy because the girl finds her dad, who was in a magical land and has not aged. But this time she goes with him to the magical land.

I have seen this movie two times--at the movie theater and at my grandma's house because I got it for Easter two years ago. I'm in the middle of reading the book series, but my sister has already read the whole entire book series. I think you would like this movie.

Life of Pi (2012)

Pi and Robert Parker
I went to go see Life of Pi in the movies. It is a sad and heart-warming movie about a guy who gets stuck on a boat with a bunch of animals.

Life of Pi has a lot of Academy Awards. I think it is my favorite movie. I'm not trying to give anything away, but in one of the scenes his brother and parents die. I probably didn't give it away because you've probably already seen the movie.

I don't think it's based on a real story because that would be crazy. There is no other movie like this one, I am not surprised.

My favorite part is when he gets to that Venus flytrap island and finds the human tooth. It made me feel sad and I had this tingly feeling like I was going to cry.

I personally think this movie is awesome and that you should see it. I hate when the monkey and the zebra get eaten by the hyena.

One last thing before I am done: The Mad TV show made a funny version of this movie, and in it he gets stuck on a boat with Dr. Seuss and he loses all the food and other funny stuff.

The Hobbit (2012)

I went to see The Hobbit with my Dad, Sister, Grandpa and Grandma. It was about when Bilbo Baggins (Frodo's uncle) was young.

Bilbo's bad house guests
First, Gandalf puts a sign on Bilbo's door so that dwarves could have a meeting there. Next, the dwarves and Gandalf come over, but Bilbo did not expect them and he does not like what they do.

My favorite part of the movie was when they fought the orc leader, Azog.  My least favorite part of the movie was that I wanted more, but that's what part 2 and part 3 are for.  By the time I see part 2, I'll be nine! And by the time I see part three, I'll be ten! I can't believe it! 

I haven't finished the book so I don't know what happens in part 2 and part 3.  I haven't seen the whole Hobbit movie series, but I have seen the whole Lord of the Rings movie series.  I think you would like this movie.  I can't wait to see part 2 and part 3!

Thor

I went to go see Thor in the theater last summer. I was very excited to see it, because I like superhero movies. I even had the Thor movie magazine, and so I knew some of the things that were going to be in the movie.

Thor is an action-adventure with lots of monsters and people from different planets. In the beginning, the Jotuns came to steal the Casket of Ancient Winters. There was a big ice monster, and many other enemies.

I really liked the action. I liked all the special effects. The enemies that Thor and his friends had to face were mostly made out of ice, which I thought was really cool. The only things I didn't like about the movie were when the Destroyer turned bad, and when Loki turned bad.

You should watch Thor, and if you have, I bet you thought that it was very good!

Bye bye!
