Chronicle Movie
“Chronicle” is a very encouraging type of film; especially, during its beginning scenes. It is light and witty. The film is presented in a very one-sided angle—”so to speak. The audience witnesses: shots taken by the film’s character in way of his digital camera …

DragonLance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight (2008) Movie
I have waited a long time for someone to make a DragonLance movie. I would have preferred a live-action film but this movie is animated. Still, it follows the novel pretty well. This movie is not perfect but it is very viewable, especially if you’re not too fussy.
All …

The Good Dinosaur (2015 Film)
