Film #32: FROZEN (2013)

This film was truly awesome, I love Disney but this was so much more. The plot was simple to follow, which is always good for a children's film but it still had a wonderful plot twist to it that I wasn't expecting. The songs and singers were both amazing also! I can't wait for it to come out on DVD and to watch it again repeatedly!

Film #29: THE RISE OF THE GUARDIANS (2012)

Another child's animation film, I know I'm slightly obsessed with them but they're awesome! This was surprisingly good with more good animation. The storyline was a little dry at times but towards the end it really picked up. It also contained the wonderful voices of Chris Pine, Hugh Jackman and Jude Law.
I really liked this film and would watch it again.

Film #28: MONSTER'S UNIVERSITY (2013)

I had high hopes for this film as the first was so good but was slightly disappointed in some ways as nothing could beat the first film. But it was still a good film and I would happily watch it again it was full of laughs and unexpectingly adorable characters like Squishy. Although I felt in some ways that this film was too childish there were moments where it just became completely unbelievable even for a Disney film, it was too colourful and jolly for most of the time. My favourite Disney/Disney Pixar films are those with dark moments in too such as the Lion King  with evil Scar and Toy Story when in Sid's room. But I suppose I would think like that as a 17 year old watching a Disney Pixar film.
The animation on the film was amazing though I was stund by the amount of detail out into the mise en scene such as the fur on the monsters.
It was a good film but you can't beat the original Monsters Inc!

Film #27: THE ODD LIFE OF TIMOTHY GREEN (2012)

This film was alright, I wasn't amazed by it but I wasn't disappointed by it either. It was simple and family friendly and acted very well. But it's one of those stories that is so fantasy right from the start that there becomes a large gap between being the greatest film ever and being ok. The film was good and a nice story line but I won't be rushing to watch it again any time soon.

Film #26: THE HUNGER GAMES (2012)

This film was phenomenal! I mean talk about the ideal post-modernism film to watch and analysis! Jennifer Lawrence was so good, she was so suited for this role as she is both pretty but ordinary so was ideal for being the normal person that could have possibly been picked but then in the end volunteered herself but that's besides the point.
I honestly have waited too long to watch this film and should have done it way before now. I can't wait to watch the second one!
