Turning Red (2022)

The premise resonated with me.  A teenage girl tried to go to a boy band concert, but the mother said no.  So the girl lied.

This is not the best Pixar movie.  Because of the pandemic, I've missed quite a few Pixar movies, but it didn't seem like I missed out on the quality.  The story was ok; the songs were ok; the friendship was ok.  Nothing especially stood out.

Encanto (2021)

So glad that I watched this movie for free.  Nothing was impressive.  It was another teenage girl with (or without) magic power, but she was the one that could save the family!

They sang about "they don't talk about" this thing and that thing, but in the song they did talk about this thing and that thing.  They didn't quite get the concept of holding everything in, huh.  But if everyone kept everything inside tightly, the movie wouldn't move forward.

Pixar's Coco (2017) was better.  I cried so much at that movie.

Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022)

It was confusing at the beginning, and the movie didn't explain the premise well.  However, I got the basic idea after keeping watching it.  It wasn't a multi-verse.  It was a mother's desperate attempt trying to hang onto reality.  It was all in her head.  More like What If... this happened instead of her current life?

Maybe more suited for watching the movie while high.

Salt (2010)

My favorite action romance movie.  A woman’s husband was killed. She went crazy and killed everyone responsible.  What’s not to like?

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)

I forgot this movie had no ending.  It was a cliffhanger and must watch #3.

I was confused by the plot. Math Teacher explained there was no plot.  Disney had a bunch of funny scenes so they strung all of them together to make a movie.

I only liked #1 because Jake Sparrow was more a calculating captain but acting like a fool to throw everyone off.  Every step he took was carefully designed.  Starting #2, Jake Sparrow was more a fool than a captain.

The Addams Family (1991)

A cute movie.  Don’t think too hard about it.  Since the mom was a witch, I wondered about the abilities of the other family members.  I couldn’t get a clear answer.
