Fly me to the moon

Fly me to the moon is a movie that takes place in 1969 during Apollo 11 moon landing. It is about three flies that board the Apollo 11. They landed on the moon with the Apollo 11 three man crew. Join Scooter, IQ, and Nat in a animated comedy.
This animated film is not just funny, but it has historical details into the movie.
My favorite fly is Scooter because scooter eats non stop. He loves food and can't let go of a choclate cake. He is like me , but not as fat or eat as much. Even when his life is in danger, scooter keeps on eating.
My next favorite is IQ. IQ is my favorite because he is the smartest fly I've seen. He knows how to read english, do math,and do science. I just find it funny because how many flies do that.
Another favorite is Nat. Nat is a funny fly that likes to explore. His grandfather helped Amelia Eairheart fly to France across the Atlantic. Nat is just inspired by his grandfather's journey.

This movie is a animated comedy perfect for the Holidays. Rent it from your locatal video store.

Hancock

Hancock is a movie starring Will Smith and is another superhero movie. It is about a loser superhero who saves lives while he causes damage to Los Angles. The citizens of Los Angles hates him, but he saves lives. He was insaulted and called loser by everybody in Los Angles. From a child to adults, they all insaulted him the same way. It wasn't until he met Ray. Ray works for helping the world. Ray wants to help Hancock and his son believes Hancock is his Hero. Aaron, Ray's son, loves Hancock and he thinks of Hancock as a hero or a role model.
Ray decides to help Hancock be more active with the people of Los Angleses. Ray decides that Hancock go to jail for 2 weeks and no hero work. That way crime willm increase and the city will beg to release Hancock. They will release him 2 weeks after because they know Hancock is needed.
This movie has great camera shots, visual effects, and camera effects. They had lots of Shot variety and made me excited. I love how they had Hancock fly. I know that he's on a blue screen, but they created the perfect illusion. I also enjoy how they created the part between super women and Hancock. Hancock got her angry and you can see in the background tornados forming. I just enjoy seeing that part because they demonstrated to me that Super Women is more powerful than Hancock.
One of the cons is the Story and plot. They story goes well in the being with hancock saving lives,but then it jumps to him fighting Super women. It has no connection to the story. I don't think there even is a story. This movie has a terriable story that it made me want to change the channel.
You can watch one time and rent the disc, but don't buy it. It is not worth a rewatch.

Max and Treavor has studied the Earth and believed that there are volcanic tubes in the earth that passes the mantle to the Center of the earth.

Togeather Treavor , Sean, and there Icelandic mountain guide, Hannah, are going to the center of the Earth to find proof for Max's research. In this epic journey, Treavor, Sean and Hannah are going to discover dinosaurs, a terearium at the center of the earth, and extinct lightning birds. They find diamonds, rubies, feldspur, and emerald. This is an exciting journey with excellent camera shots and great visual effects. The camera shots are excellent. I never gor bored from looking at the movie. The Director of Photography is excellent. The movie is suspenseful, exciting, mouth-watering makes me want to see it again and again. I watched this movie at least 5 times and still wants to see more. This movie may have great camera shots, viusl effects, and special effects, it lacks a strong story and plot. It is not creative enough. They should have added to Verne's novel. It is not enough, they did not reach exceed expectations, they aimed for medicroacy. Medicrocy is great, but that is what 95% of the world's population does. Be like the 5% like Bill Gates, Tigar woods, Steven Speilburg, and Zhang Yimou. I am disappointedated at the stroy and plot. I found so excited at the suspense , but disappointed at the story and plot.
