Pickled Wookiee

Funny Girl, starring Barbra Streisand is about a girl who rises to fame in New York. It follows her wish to preform on stage, and her crazy love life.  It is full of soaring songs, sung by the one and only Barbra Streisand. The Funny thing about this movie was that, over all, it wasn’t funny. When you sit down to watch a movie called “Funny Girl” you expect some good laughs; and sure, it had a couple little giggles here and there, but the wrap up of the movie was depressing. You watch a girl make a lot of bad choices, and have a pretty bad outcome from all of it. It’s realistic, and there’s a good moral to the story, but its nearly three hours wasted on a sad ending. The only things I can give it credit for? The music was amazing  and Barbra acted her role with feeling. You’ll also learn a good lesson when it comes to falling in love, and how cautious a girl should be. (continue reading…)

Swan Princess is an animated film based off of the story of “Swan Lake”. It was recommended to me by a 6 year old girl, and I was surprised that it was a decent movie. It was a fun movie. It didn’t measure up to some of Disney’s princess flicks, and a few of its musical numbers were tedious and out of place. The story’s message only scratched the surface of what it could have been, but it was a kids movie, and I suppose you can’t get terribly deep with kids before you lose them. On its good side, it had humor,  sweet  fairy tale romance, and it was clean. With a beautiful princess, and handsome prince, and a group of cute and witty animals, this movie certainly will appeal to younger children, especially girls. (continue reading…)
