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.
 

Take the Money and Run (1969)

Rabbi scene

I saw a very silly movie called Take the Money and Run. It's about this guy who does bad things and goes to jail a lot. I thought it was a very funny and weird movie.

It was really knee-slapping when he took the experimental shot and turned into a rabbi for 24 hours.

This is a really good movie that you have probably already seen, but I would watch it again. For those of you that haven't seen it, I would recommend it to you.

There were a lot of jokes that my dad has already told me, like the cello in the marching band. The narrator said really hilarious things in a really serious voice--I don't know how he kept that serious voice. It was also hysterical when the old lady told the policeman in the house that they were from the jail, and she said, "See how they waddle together with those chains?" and the police said, "I just thought they were a very close family."

Me and everybody else were laughing so much. We also laughed about a lot of other jokes in the movie, too. But even though I liked it so much, it's not my favorite movie. If you have seen this movie, you probably thought it was really crazy.

   

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!  

Treasure Island (1934)

Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins

This movie is very suspenseful! It is filled with action and adventure. I read the book first, and then I saw the movie. The movie was different from the book. The movie was a lot shorter, with some things taken out.

There was a guy named Bill that is searching for a guy with one leg, and it appears to be Long John Silver. But Bill dies before he can find him. This little boy named Jim Hawkins goes on a boat with Long John Silver as one of the other passengers, and they become friends. Jim figures out that Silver is a very bad man, but he still likes him.

Jim Hawkins was my favorite character. He's played by Jackie Cooper, who was one of the the Little Rascals! 

I liked that the good guys found the gold first. But the part that I didn't like was that Long John Silver stole four bags of it while he was in jail, and sailed away with them in the end.

I like this movie a lot, and I think you should watch it too.

The Three Stooges

This was when they were babies!

My grandma said that the original Three Stooges was better than the remake. But when I went to see it with my dad and my sister, my dad said it was sort of like the originals.

I thought the funniest part was when the babies started peeing on the Three Stooges. The happiest part was when they got a new orphanage that was even cooler than the old one. The saddest part was when the old orphanage closed down.

The Monsignor said that they needed $830,000 to get the orphanage back, so Moe, Larry and Curly tried to get the money. I thought Moe, Larry and Curly were really funny. I never really saw the original Three Stooges (I saw them when I was really little but I don't remember). So I thought this one was probably better. Even though my dad disagrees.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance

I had to wait to see this movie, because I was punished. But the next week, I wasn't punished, so I got to see it. We live so close to the movie theater that we could walk there!

The movie was about a guy who signed a deal with the Devil. Whenever he gets mad, he turns into Ghost Rider. There was a little boy and his mother that Ghost Rider was trying to save.

My favorite part was a very funny part. It was when Johnny Blaze was on his motorcycle and was turning into Ghost Rider, and making silly faces. The other part I liked was when he went into a giant construction vehicle and when he went in it, it went on fire and he started crushing all the bad guys!

There was nothing I really didn't like about this movie. Even though this movie is not in the movie theaters anymore, you should see it on DVD.

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!
