My Thoughts:
This one...while entertaining... is not a great one. I didn't find many of the characters likable and the story line was predictable. I felt the cast did a fine job though, the problems I have with this film is with the story itself. Over all I would say it is worth the time put in to watch it. But don't expect too much from it.

My Thoughts:
I like the way they did this DVD... because not only is the reunion film on this disc, but also the 2 part series finale to remind us what happened at the end of the series.

As for the film itself, once again we enjoyed every minute of it. The entire Russo family returns except for one. That being older brother Justin. Once again this is a fun story for the entire family. But I recommend watching the series before watching the films.

This is a film I seen several times now, It is one I really like alot.One of my favorites of the Disney Channel films.

There was literally no one that bugged me when I saw them on the screen. Well worth the time put in to watch it. Give it a chance...it might surprise you.

My Thoughts:
Well, going in to this one, i've seen mixed reviews. And the trailer was decent enough. But the movie wasnt too bad actually. We got some cool moments here and there. And there was a few good scare moments aswell. Its a fairly "small production" tho. Mainly just one actress trough-out the movie. The story was uknown to me, before watching it. But i've understood that there are a few movies about the same story. All in all,  a fairly ok horrorflick with some good moments here and there.

My Thoughts:
This is a cute little film...though I do admit parts were a bit slow and I did feel my attention drifting from the movie at times. While they did have some... I think the sisters could have had a little more fun with their magic after discovering each other. Over-all it is worth the watch. Though not sure how often I would watch this one.

My Thoughts:
Woah, that was actually alot better then i expected it to be. I remember i watched the first one, and i thought that was ok. So i wanted to check this one out for a cheap penny. And the movie delivers (for me anyways) we got a good story, some few mentions to the first movie. Some real good moments here and there. And i have to say that this was a creepy movie in the correct way. Really liked what they did with this. But you should watch the first one, before watching this. All in all, a good one!

My Thoughts:
First let me state that I never read the comic... so I can not compare the two. I have been told various things about the comic so do know the differences here... but that is about it. When watching I was a little surprised that you don't even see the Joker till half way through the film. While I enjoyed the film... I definitely seen better Batman animated movies. I think this one could have been hyped a little too much for me before seeing it. What happened between Batgirl and Batman at the beginning of the movie seemed a bit on the weird side to me... but didn't bother me as much as some people. Over all a decent watch... worth the time... but don't get your hopes up too much for it.
