TS3 lives up to its predecessors

Lee Unkrich and company at Pixar do it again, incorporating imagery, story, and emotion from the first two movies in this series while adding new characters to love and with whom we can connect. No spoilers here, but suffice it to say that you'll need a few hankies, as is often the case with Pixar movies. Where others try and fail, Pixar knows that attention to detail and story above all else is key to Oscar gold and, better yet, longevity in this medium. Do yourselves a favor and see this movie--preferably several times. And then hug your kids and play with them and their beloved toys.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

New Moon Sets a New Standard

If "Twilight" = tasty appetizer, "New Moon" = the first course, full of meaty Quileutes, mouthwatering vamps, & just enough levity to not get completely sucked into Bella's depression. The movie is tightly written & filmed & only rarely strays from the book. Alongside some cheesy moments are many intentionally funny line from old reliables (Jessica, Mike, Charlie) & Emmett, Alice, and the wolves. Taylor Lautner is phenomenal and perfectly embodies what makes Jacob likable and necessary to the story. Having devoured this ample and satisfying first course, I anxiously await the second course of "Eclipse," and dessert (I hope of "Breaking Dawn." If you love the books, you'll be happy with this latest cinematic interpretation.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
