If you’re like the normal person in the street, when you think Disney movies, you think political plot points!

Yeah, I was being sarcastic. Even I was surprised after watching this movie that politics played an integral part to this movie’s plot. Based on a memoir written by one of the characters in the film (I don’t know how loosely or strongly this film is based on the memoirs), this musical film is not well-known, as you might imagine. So without further ado, let’s jump into reviewing The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band!

And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD!

It’s about time that I reviewed another Disney Muppets film! After adapting Charles Dickens’ famous Christmas tale, the Muppets are now tackling Robert Louis Stevenson’s swashbuckling adventure! Do I think this is an improvement over The Muppet Christmas Carol which I found to be fair, at best, or do I think this is a film that should have been buried along with the treasure? Read to find out!

And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD!

Just wanna start this review with a shout-out to my long-time follower, kirksroom! He requested me to review this film since October 2014 and only NOW I’m getting to it! I almost got to it a few months ago, but a case of mistaken identity regarding the movie he wanted me to review resulted in it being prolonged even more.

I apologize to you, kirksroom, for taking so long to do this film! So without further ado, let’s see whether I enjoy this “comedic kidnapping caper” as much as kirksroom does! Time to review No Deposit, No Return!

Ah, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day! This was a book that most of us Americans read at least once in our lives growing up. And when we heard they were making a film adaptation of it…I don’t think many of us really cared that much. The story itself seemed unable to be adapted, but then again, I thought the same thing about LEGOs.

And look what they did with that!

So, could Disney pull this off and make this book into an awesome film? Or would the film’s quality reflect its title? Let’s take a look at Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day!
