Movie Night: Puss in Boots.

Review #213: Puss in Boots.

Cast
Antonio Banderas (Puss in Boots), Zach Galifianakis (Humpty Alexander Dumpty), Salma Hayek (Kitty Softpaws), Billy Bob Thornton and Amy Sedaris (Jack and Jill), Constance Marie (Imelda), Guillermo del Toro (Comandante, Moustache Man), and Mike Mitchell (Andy "Jack" Beanstalk) Directed by Chris Miller (#163 - Shrek the Third)

Review
This film is a spin-off of the Shrek franchise, and it works well enough to not have to depend on it for guidance. The acting is good, with Banderas stealing the show. The film has some good action and while not being entirely different from other animated films, it has enough charm in visuals and gold old action with some fun to win out in the end. It's good stuff for cat lovers as well (I couldn't resist saying that).

To the 97 people who have read this review: How did this review attract you, and how has this managed to be the highest rated one ever?

Overall, I give it 8 out of 10 stars.

Movie Night: Selena.

Review #051: Selena.

Cast
Jennifer Lopez (Selena Quintanilla-Pérez), Jackie Guerra (Suzette Quintanilla), Constance Marie (Marcella Quintanilla), Alexandra Meneses (Sara), Jon Seda (Chris Pérez), Edward James Olmos (Abraham Quintanilla Jr), and Jacob Vargas (A.B. Quintanilla) Directed by Gregory Nava.

Review
This film is about Selena (obviously), the famous singer who brought Tejano music to a new high. The film introduces you to her life from when she and her family performed when she was 10, to her sucess, her secret marriage, all the way until her tragic death on March 31, 1995. The acting is good, especiallly from Lopez in her breakout role. This film is a good biopic about the singer who will always be remembered, Selena (again, obviously).

Overall, I give it 8 out of 10 Stars.
