Good evening, precious people! ^_^

*Not necessarily meant to be a wholesome film that you can get a clear message out've, but it does have a few good points you can take from. Such as don't judge people based on their race, for one. The townspeople (mainly Walker) were racist against Sam (due to interracial relationships being illegal) and didn't want Kate to be with him, so he was killed. Course, it was a bad and difficult time and we are since past that type of thing, but it still teaches you and shows you the goodness of people's heart from everywhere and you shouldn't be prejudice to one another. Also, keep your promises. Had Stanley's ancestor been honorable to Madam Zeroni's request, he wouldn't have had that curse put upon him. Thankfully, years down the line, his descendant did the job for him, but the curse wound up bringing endless bad luck to the family until that point, so, basically, do what you are meant to do, before it effects others. An added message to take from this is that justice will always prevail. May not be today or tomorrow or even where we can see it at all in our life time, but evil always pays in some way and everything works out in the end.
*What I love about this storyline is that everything intertwines. All the characters are connected somehow, but not in an annoying, in-your-face way. A clever, aha way. The ending is just pure poetic justice and the relationships built up scattered around the movie are very well done. The moment Kate loses Sam always draws out emotion in me, too. It's a movie you can enjoy with everyone, but it has a lot of things that adults will be able to relate to. It holds your attention good and keeps it balanced with lots of humor, character development and a cleverly written plot.

*There are a few really good messages inside this one. For one, it shows the importance of family and love and brings light to how orphan children feel, and no matter how old they are, they matter too. It's another one of those movies that has to do with the past and shows the consequences of our actions and what we wind up leaving for ourselves and others later down the line. Granted, the fact that Goob carried a grudge against Luis was ridiculous, but in the end, he wasn't such a bad guy (turns out it was really Doris the hat) and he really was misguided on the matter and wanted to be good in the end. Another good message was "Keep Moving Forward", which really encourages everyone to simply do just that. Never give up. If nothing works out the first time, try try again. :)
*The plot itself is what interests me the most. The characters are likable enough and I love the way things build up. It has some corny parts, but for the most part, I can really tolerate it and it closes things off rather well. Nevertheless, it's a great family film!
Sleeping Beauty

*A beautiful classic that doesn't necessarily have too many messages one can pull out. It does have the age-old "love at first sight" subplot that fairytales normally have where Aurora and Phillip have one or two encounters and then they marry, so it's not the greatest thing to teach kids. But it makes up for it with charm, beautiful art and a warm magical feel that'll have a lot of it's more mature atmospheres fly over kids' heads.
I guess you can also point out to kids...not to tick off evil witches?
*Just as I said, it's beautiful and I love the feeling I get when I watch it. It's a true fairytale and has a really great set of voice actors for the lovable characters. You gotta love it simply because it's a fairytale. ^^
The Rescuers
*7.5
*Another one that doesn't necessarily have a lot of a message you can take away. It does explore a storyline involving orphans, so it brings the matter to people's attention and it has a good tendency to make people emotional about the characters. The characters themselves have good moral background and the film explores good examples of friendship and Good Samaritan acts.
*I love the characters so much and the story is adorable. The art is also very well done, very vivid and detailed. The music is also catchy and it isn't littered with everybody singing. What more can I say? It's a classic. XD
Tune in tomorrow for my next post!
