| Despicable Me 3
by Dacey Booker, July 5, 2017
Though it’s elevated by plenty of laughs and a fun new bad guy, Despicable Me 3 would’ve benefited from a little more focus…and, dare we say it, more Minions.
|
| Cars 3
by James R Whitson, June 21, 2017
Cars 3 is a little too similar to the original model. But with fun characters, nice writing, and top of the line animation, the film easily leaves the previous entry of the franchise in the dust.
|
| Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie
by James R Whitson, June 5, 2017
With fun animation, hit-or-miss jokes, and a meandering plot, Captain Underpants is a mixed bag, somewhere between “not bad” and “not great”, and more tepid than epic.
|
| Wonder Woman
by Dan Short, June 2, 2017
Wonder Woman is a pretty good superhero movie and the best DCEU film to date, boosted by Gal Gadot’s performance and director Patty Jenkins’ storytelling.
|
| The Red Turtle
by Randall Cyrenne, May 14, 2017
The award-winning Studio Ghibli film, that actually is a European production, has characters that never speak, but the film has plenty to say.
|
| Tangled: Before Ever After
by Ben Simon, April 21, 2017
The Tangled television series kicks off with this debut movie, whose job is simply to restore Rapunzel’s golden locks for the ongoing show in an entertaining enough fashion.
|
| The Boss Baby
by James R Whitson, April 11, 2017
While there is some fun for kids in The Boss Baby, adults sitting with them will be wishing they were at the grown-ups table instead.
|
| Sing
by Ben Simon, March 30, 2017
Fun and funny, with a killer, wide-ranging soundtrack that overcomes its cartoon karaoke concept, and some great character animation, Sing turns out to be the best singing contest on screens right now.
|
| Beauty and the Beast
by Dan Short, March 28, 2017
While it manages to be good, the live-action adaption of Disney’s animated classic suffers from glaring flaws that make the film a disappointment given the hype and ambitions.
|
| Miss Hokusai
by Randall Cyrenne, March 27, 2017
This tale of famous Japanese artists – a man and his daughter – is told using Buddhist ideas of life’s simple pleasures, rather than trying to fit a Western-style genre. Its rewards are subtle and may be unexpected.
|
| Moana: Ultimate Collectors Edition
by Ben Simon, March 14, 2017
Disney’s second animated smash of 2016 is this brilliant action adventure musical from masters of the craft John Musker and Ron Clements, and this disc presentation is as solid as they come!
|
| Mickey And The Roadster Racers
by Dacey Booker, March 14, 2017
This Mickey Mouse Clubhouse spin-off offers plenty of slapstick-heavy action for kids, even as some adults wonder how much mileage Disney can get out of it.
|
| Legend Quest
by Dan Short, March 14, 2017
Endure the rough start and one will find Legend Quest to be an exciting, dramatic adventure filled with scary creatures and fascinating mythologies to explore.
|
| The Powerpuff Girls: Tiara Trouble
by Dacey Booker, March 13, 2017
Though it may not capture the absurd magic of the original series, the new Powerpuff Girls still provides plenty of laughs for both kids and adults.
|
| Trolls: Party Edition
by Dacey Booker, March 3, 2017
The delightful DreamWorks musical hit looks great on disc, even if the number of extras included isn’t exactly hair-raising.

|
| The Lego Batman Movie
by James R Whitson, February 12, 2017
Despite a thin story The Lego Batman Movie is an extremely fun ride with great animation, music, and acting. Though maybe next time leave the more dreary plotlines to that other Dark Knight.
|
| Pinocchio: Walt Disney Signature Collection
by Ben Simon, February 6, 2017
Walt Disney’s epic masterpiece joins the Signature line, with a typically light treatment where the (lack of new) supplements can’t hold a candle to the brilliant feature.
