Bolt, a review by addicted2dvd

Bolt
Bolt tells the story a dog who plays a heroic dog in a hit TV show and has some trouble recognizing that he doesn't even have superpowers. This becomes something of a hindrance when he is accidentally shipped from Hollywood to New York City. From there he has to make his way home with the help of a manky old cat and an overweight hamster in a plastic ball.

John Travolta

My Thoughts:
I decided to watch this one with my daughter, Brittany today.  We both enjoyed this one. It is very cute... and a fun storyline. Another one that I definitely plan on adding to my collection.

A rather typical comedy. Guys tries to win back girl but she has now another boyfriend who seems to be perfect. But I enjoyed it.
Hank Azaria is type-cast as the new boyfriend who seems perfect at first and reveals his true nature towards the end.
There is a nice cameo by David Walliams, who plays a character which reminds of Sebastian from "Little Britain" without the hairstyle.

Rating:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

EPISODE 5: NO PLACE LIKE HOME
While on her nightly patrol, Buffy finds a glowing orb which leads her to suspect there's an unnatural force behind both her mother's growing illness and her sister Dawn.

My Thoughts:
Another good episode... in this one we find out exactly where Dawn came from... and we meet the new Big Bad for the season. Glory. I wouldn't say Glory is my favorite of the Big Bads... but she is pretty cool. I will definitely enjoy this season more then the last.

EPISODE 6: FAMILY
Tara inadvertently puts everyone in danger when she secretly casts a spell on her friends after her family arrives in Sunnydale to celebrate her birthday.

My Thoughts:
Another good episode... this one centering around Tara... In this one we find out why she stopped that spell for locating demons from working last season.

EPISODE 7: FOOL FOR LOVE
After being impaled by a vampire, Buffy turns to Spike, who claims to have killed two Slayers, in an attempt to learn how other Slayers met their end.

My Thoughts:
Another episode I liked... In this episode there is a flashback showing Spike getting turned into a vampire... and him defeating 2 different slayers. They kinda messed up here though... in the second season.... in the episode School Hard Spike said that Angel was his sire... but yet in this episode it shows Drusilla siring him.

EPISODE 8: SHADOW
Buffy has to face both her mother's critical illness and the growing threat of Glory's continuing search for the Key.

My Thoughts:
This is a pretty good episode... I liked the snake creature... but I have to admit this episode (not to mention the upcoming episodes) was/will be hard for me to watch... what with my mother being ill at the moment.
