Dolphins and Whales 3D

by T Akery May 15th, 2013 | Family
Dolphins and Whales 3D: Tribes of the Ocean is a movie that you will find at your local planetarium. You will need to check the dates and times for your local planetarium to find out when this movie is playing. It is playing in the IMAX theater.

This is a soft story about some of the biggest creatures on Earth. The opening sequence after the title is very breathtaking. It is close up as most of us will ever come to these magnificent creatures. The first whale  featured is the enormous blue whale.

One of the things the movie makes abundantly

Amazing Universe

by T Akery May 10th, 2013 | Family
Amazing Universe is a movie you can find at your local planetarium rather than your local movie theater. The movie utilizes the entire roof screen of the planetarium. You will need to check with your local planetarium to find the running times for this one.

One word of warning. If you are susceptible to motion sickness, you should skip this one. There are some instants where it feels as if you are moving very fast. This happens a couple of times in the movie. The most motion sensation happened at the beginning.

Amazing Universe is a look at our night sky

A Movie Brought Back from Extinction

by James Maynard April 9th, 2013 | Movie Reviews, Sci-Fi
Jurassic Park is the latest movie to re re-released in 3-D. This 1993 classic, directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the Michael Crichton novel, was a charming, classic film, full of ferocious reptiles on the prowl for humans at a theme park full of genetically-modified beasts.

GI Joe Retaliation Delivers Kid-Friendly Action

by Ronald A. Rowe April 2nd, 2013 | Action, Movie Reviews
Fans of GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra may feel a strange disconnect when watching the sequel, GI Joe: Retaliation. Many of the characters, good and bad, from the original were oddly absent from the follow up. Gone without mention are old favorites Heavy Duty, Scarlett, Breaker, Ripcord, the Baroness, and General Hawk.

Duke, the hero of the first GI Joe film, and pretty much every incarnation of the Joes since the early 1980s, got short shrift in the sequel despite the star power of Channing Tatum who reprised the role ... for about 15 minutes. I’m not sure if

by Ronald A. Rowe March 26th, 2013 | Animated, Movie Reviews
The Croods is the newest animated family feature from DreamWorks. The protagonists are a family of cavemen ... um, cave people?... who have outlived all their cave neighbors by meticulously following the patriarch’s safety rules, which could be best summed up in his oft-repeated advice “never be not afraid.” When continental drift causes a series of natural catastrophes the Croods, along with a newcomer named Guy, must leave the safety of their cave sweet cave and find safer ground.

The Croods features an excellent voice cast that includes Nicolas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Catherine Keener, Choris Leachman, and Clark
