Descendants (2015)
The Children of Tomorrow!
One of Disney's best plot ideas in a century. The Movie had a great plot to work with, and it managed it well.
Watching the teenage versions of Disney's most famous Heroes and Villains interact is both Interesting for younger generations and nostalgic for for people who grew up watching the parents of these children.
If you can look past some minor plot holes,(such as how most villain children only have 1 parent) the story is quite satisfying.
The music elements flow seamlessly thanks to High School Musical Director "Kenny Ortega". The Vocals are outstanding particularly by leads "Dove Cameron"(Mal), "Sofia Carson"(Evie) and Mitchell Hope(Prince Ben).
Overall the movie falls short in very few areas, with some cheesy songs pulling it down a little along with a predictable ending, but the movie is an instant classic among current Disney fans and a must see for all, old and new.
Adventures in Babysitting (2016)
100th Disney Channel Original Movie!
Disney is celebrating its 100th Disney Original Movie with its recreation of the 1987 movie "Adventures in Babysitting".
The movie does well in its own right but when compared to the original version of the movie the movie falls a little flat. There are little to no innovative choices made by the production team in this version. They do manage to retain some of the 80's humor without seeming too cheesy, but some parts of the movie such as the "baddies" seem to have been pulled straight from the previous century.
The cast is chosen well with the banter between Disney Veterans Sabrina Carpenter and Sofia Carson providing a great few chuckles throughout the movie. The charming child actors/actresses in the movie do great to cause mischief without seeming too cliché.
despite the mediocre script and the outdated "baddies" the movie performs well as a comedy for a TV Movie thanks to the great performance by the cast. 7/10 - Worth a watch
Supernatural (2005)
An amazing show, but may be running out of steam.
Supernatural begins in season one as a horror show, the "ghost of the week" plot writing meant that it was easy for people to drop in and out of watching the show while not missing much of the bigger plot line.
This changed however when the writers realized they had created something special with the relationship between Sam and Dean and began to develop their special brotherly relationship even further and focusing on much bigger and in depth story lines that would leave you wondering after after every episode "what happens next!". The show develops dramatically making it one of the best TV series i have seen in a long, long time. nearly perfect with a 9/10.
however after a brilliant ending in season 6 the show had a great opportunity to deal themselves out and call it a day knowing they had made a television masterpiece. It also seemed that they could not pull of any bigger story lines of than what they already had, yet they decided to try.
season 7 started good enough but it seemed to to slowly run out of steam and by the end of the season it came clear that it should of ended the previous season. leaving the show with an average 6/10.
This does not mean that you should give up on the show just yet, the writers may surprise us in upcoming seasons, but the real question is when, how, and will they actually end it?
The First Time (2012)
One of the best teen romantics ever, A brilliant date movie.
This teen romantic comedy is a brilliant interpretation of not just having sex for the first time but also about falling in love for the first time. The movie is a brilliant choice for snuggling up with your second half or by yourself with a smile on your face watching a lovely relationship between two characters.
You can not help but root for the high school senior, Dave who is trying to grab the absolutely gorgeous Aubrey Miller who is perfect girlfriend material. She is different and you can not help but fall in love with her yourself through the duration of the movie.
As i said previously this is the perfect date movie, the atmosphere set in the movie is perfect for a snuggle to someone close to you and the ending scenes will put you in a very loving and happy mood.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (2013)
great show
season 1 started slowly but since then it has grown into a television masterpiece leaving me every week wanting more!! The way the show is written they can change their future plans easily yet it seems what is happening in the end of season 2 was planned in detail in the beginning of season 1. The TV show is also a great way for marvel to introduce new characters try new pans and set up upcoming movies.
Marvels Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D's earlier episodes i season 1 will put many people off the show as it just seems slightly boring and pointless but sticking through those episodes you can see how every little detail in previous episodes are extremely important to the plot and the episodes near the end of season 2 were everything comes together in an excellent display of screen writing.
