Jack Black is not the first person that comes to mind when thinking of the hero in Gulliver’s Travels, but that is who this movie gave us. So we have a protagonist that acts like Black’s character from School of Rock.
The film tries to modernize a few things. Black works in the mail room of a large New York publishing company and is smitten with a beautiful editor of travel articles. When a job opens up in her area he applies, though he has no writing skills. So he plagiarizes an online article for his job interview and gets the job.
Once hired he is immediately sent to Bermuda on assignment. As he passes though the Bermuda Triangle he gets caught up in a storm and is almost killed. But he survives and washes up on a beach of an uncharted island. When he awakens he finds he is restrained, and there are many little people surrounding him.
He has arrived in Lilliput.
The rest of the movie follows the famous storyline, but of course it has been tailored to fit Jack Black’s comedic style. This film can be watched by the entire family without any problem.

Disney’s Tangled is an instant classic. No debate. Finally, they have again made a family movie that can stand alongside their 1990s classics (The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Aladdin, (Tarzan).
A sort of retelling of the original story, Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) is stolen from her wealthy parents at a very young age by Mother Gothel (Donna Murphy) and locked away in a tower. She does this because Rapunzel’s long hair is able to keep Gothel young. With each passing year Rapunzel wishes even more that she could escape and see all that the world has to offer.
One day shortly after Rapubzel turns 18, a very handsome robber named Flynn Ryder (Zachery Levi) breaks into the tower and discovers her by accident. After hearing her story Flynn agrees to get her out and away from the castle, which he does. What follows next is a series of fantastic adventures that these two get themselves into trying reclaim what they lost. Along the way they inevitably fall in love, just like in any other Walt Disney movie.
I dare you to try to take your eyes off the screen while the movie is running. The CGI (a Disney first?) is spectacular and looks as lifelike as any animated movie ever made. The attention to detail is incredible. If you look anywhere in the background you will see many smaller characters and events going on. And the music is just what you would expect from Disney.. simply great.
Tangled is a landmark movie from a studio that has once again found itself.

When a young ambitious tv producer of a New Jersey morning show abruptly gets fired, she hires in as the new producer at a competing but struggling forth place morning show. With an eclectic group of anchors and reporters at her disposal, she attempts to save the ratings and the show.
Rachel McAdams plays Becky Fuller, a very resourceful and spirited young professional who dreams of one day producing the Today show. This is a role that you might expect to see played by Anne Hathaway, but Miss McAdams is perfect in the role.
When she lands at the local fourth place network IBS as the producer, she is immediately confronted with a group of angry and odd personalities.
Her first decision is to fire the very creepy, sex obsessed news anchor. She replaces him with local tv legend Mike Pomeroy (played Harrison Ford). Pomeroy wants no part of this, but Becky is able to blackmail him with a little known clause in his contract.
Working as the number two anchor, and sitting next to Pomeroy, is no-nonsense and egotistical ex-beauty queen Colleen Peck (Diane Keaton). Her no-nonsense abrasive manner and continual attempts to bring attention to herself rub Pomeroy and everyone else the wrong way.
The movie follows how McAdams must make these battling personalities work together in an effort to revive the morning show’s sinking ratings and save the program

Life as we know it has probably the saddest undercurrent of any romantic comedy I have ever seen.
The movie begins as two single people, Holly Berenson (played by Katherine Heigl) and Eric Messer (played by Josh Duhamel) are thrown together via a blind date setup by mutual married friends Peter (Hayes MacArthur) and Allison (Christina Hendricks). Holly and Eric immediately take a strong disliking to each other, and in fact never finish the date.
Afterwards Holly and Eric live their separate lives, occasionally running into each other at different places around town. But they are suddenly and unexpectedly thrown together when a tragic event occurs.
Their mutual friends Peter and Allison are killed in a car accident. At the reading of the will it is revealed that they left guardianship of their one year old daughter Sophie to Holly and Eric, along with their huge home.
The rest of this movie deals with the two friends trying to put aside their mutual distain for each other and do the right thing by watching over Sophie.
