River City Girls
(2019)

Awesome beat em up goodness
River city girls is a fantastic beat em up. Released only a couple months ago, River city girls has gone up the ranks to be as good as the games that inspired it. Developed by Wayforward, Creators of the Shantae series, River City Girls has girfriends, Kyoko and Misako on a quest to save their kidnapped boyfriends, Kunio and Riki. That's pretty much the entire plot. Slim sure but you're not playing this game for the plot. You're playing it for the heart pumping dumb fun that a good beat em up should do. This game does that and more. Along with the great gameplay, this game has an awesome soundtrack full of adrenaline filled Instrumentals to almost jazz like vocal tracks and all of them sounding amazing. Overall this is one of the best beat em ups I've played in a long time and right up there with Streets of Rage 2 as one of my favorite beat em ups ever.

UglyDolls
(2019)

I'm supposed to hate this but I don't
Everybody tells me this movie sucks but honestly I really liked it. The animation is nice, the songs are surprisingly good, and I ended up really liking The characters. So yah kinda weird with this film. It's one of the few movies that I have a positive opinion on that other people don't.

The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie
(2004)

Does Everything it needs to do and more
This is extremely good. It does everything a movie based off a show should do, better animation, new characters, new locations, and a plot bigger than what a single episode could show. Everything is there but along with all that it has some downright hilarious comedy and quotable scenes that you'll remember for years to come. I have a lot of nostalgia for this movie but even after taking off the goggles and judging it as a film, it's still amazing, something I can't say for films like Hoodwinked which I also have nostalgia for.

Koe no katachi
(2016)

A thrill ride of emotions
An Engaging plot, fleshed out characters, beautiful animation and a dose of complex emotions combine to make one of the best Japanese animated films I've seen. Every time I watch it, I keep on wanting to watch it again, a day later.

Meet the Robinsons
(2007)

One you'll never forget
Nostalgia may clouden my view a bit but I think Meet the Robinsons is one of the best Disney films ever made. With amazing characters and a great heart, this film feels like it was made with love. I really recommend it.

Hoshi no Kâbî Wii
(2011)

Kirby's return to dreamland review
After beating Kirby's return to dreamland for the 2nd time,I can say that it is still as good as when I played it for the first time but some things are off. The game has difficulty spikes throughout where there were a couple of times I felt the game became overly difficult for no reason and it does get repetitive at some points. Taking those aside this is still a gorgeous platformer with great music that any fan of platformers should play.

Aladdin
(2019)

Mediocre
I am completely in the middle with this film. Will Smith does a good job as the genie and his rendition of Arabian nights I like more than the original. Also the film had a lighter tone than the other live action Disney films with a lot more jokes. On the the other side of the coin, the things they added were completely pointless and Mena Massoud (Aladdin) is a horrible actor with an even worse singing voice. Overall I didn't feel like my time and money was wasted but I've seen way better

Houseki no Kuni
(2017)

Absolutely extravagant
Houseki no kuni or land of the lustrous here in the west is a beautiful action/drama anime with great characters, breathtaking visuals and a brilliant soundtrack. Usually CGI visuals in an anime are sub par at best but in this anime the CGI is so fluent especially in fight scenes where it looks like something taken straight from spider-man into the spider verse. Also the music is fantastic with most of it being violins and pianos even the battle music sounds elegant! Definitely watch this one right away! Here in the west it is available on VRV, Amazon prime or DVD.

Tsuredure Children
(2017)

Sweet and emotional
Tsuredure children is a fantastic anime that takes the challenge of juggling 6 relationships all at the same time. This is done brilliantly where it never feels like one couple is seen more than the other. Even though there are 12 main characters, all of them feel unique with distinct personalities. Give this show a watch if you're a fan of romance anime.

Persona 4 the Golden Animation
(2014)

P4G the animation review
P4G is great for returning fans of either the game persona 4 or the anime persona 4 the animation. Bringing back the characters you know and love with great updated visuals and the addition of Marie. For fans of P4, this is a great extension of an already great game/anime. But for newcomers this is an extremely confusing anime that I would not recommend unless watching the original series first.
