DVD Review: Prep & Landing

This holiday season lacks original Christmas programming. It’s either a repeat from 1977 or a holiday spinoff of a popular movie from 10 years ago. Thankfully Prep & Landing is neither one of those. Though it originally aired in 2009, it’s the exception to the rule. Entertaining for both kids and parents, I liked it [...]

PBS Kids Rocks! featuring Ozomatli

My love of Ozomatli is well documented. As I sit and wait patiently for the formal release of an Ozokids album, they are kind enough to tease us with just enough to tide me over. First it was the Happy Feet 2 Video game Soundtrack and now it’s 4 songs on the just released PBS [...]

If you haven’t yet seen the charming Ramona and Beezus, it’s well worth checking out for your next family movie night. Beverly Cleary’s beloved character, Romona Quimby, comes to life in a rare family film that has a little something for everyone, not just the elementary aged kids the film is marketed at.

DVD Review: “Princess Protection Program”

Posted by Scott Malchus on July 7, 2009 · 2 Comments

Princess Protection Program (2009, Disney) purchase from Amazon: DVD When the DVD for Disney’s latest, Princess Protection Program arrived at the house, my daughter could hardly contain herself. The constant ads on the Disney Channel and the casting of TV stars Selena Gomez (Wizards of Waverly Place) and Demi Lovato (Sonny with a Chance) made it seem like this film was going to be a tweenage masterpiece, or at least something fun.
