Serious Disney fans will love to get this new perspective on such a well-known place. Everybody else will still appreciate watching the incredible undertaking that was Disneyland come together.

If you're able to ignore the overwhelming scent of the '80s, the horrendous costuming will surely shake you free of whatever immersion in the story you've allowed yourself.

The action is cool, if not up with Arnold's top tier work. The set pieces make good use of the assortment of bizarre weapons at play.

It’s not the equivalent of getting everything on my holiday wish list thanks to overcooked plotting, it successfully satisfies thanks to Black’s signature attitude and snappy dialogue.

Heads of State

With its surprisingly deft blend of high-stakes action and lighthearted comedy that bumps against the PG-13 rating, Heads of State is 100% the kind of guilt-free popcorn-chomping good time that Amazon MGM should be making...

If you’re not predisposed to liking horror, you will see things here that you will never unsee. If you’re a genre veteran, know that regardless of your watch history, this film is going to make you squirm.

Ewoks: The Battle for Endor
(1985)
|
Rafe Telsch
|
Aubree Miller is adorable as Cindel, but she recites her lines with a painful lack of emotion or depth, common for an actor of her age. She just wasn't old enough to do more than read the line as she was told to do.

The field is wide open to try and hit on a bunch of different subgenres and monsters, and there are a number of cool ideas that result in fun and freaky sequences, but the movie falls short of fulfilling the heights of its promise.
