This week, it’s a movie dear to our hearts – it’s Lilo and Stitch!







This 2002 movie is a tale of a young girl's close encounter with the galaxy's most-wanted extraterrestrial. Lilo is a lonely Hawaiian girl who can’t seem to do anything right. Then, when she goes to adopt a new dog, she gets more than she bargained for with he turns out to be an experimental creature from space! She names him Stitch and teaches him what it means to be part of her 'ohana, the Hawaiian concept of family. In time, Lilo helps unlock Stitch's heart and gives him the ability to care for someone else.







So come along with us on a Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride that’s going to take you... Deep in the Plus!















Stitch is such an amazing character, and while everyone knows him, when was the last time you watched this classic animated movie? After the first movie, there were a series of direct-to-video sequels and a TV series, but none of them come close to the quality of the original.







This week, we're joined by Maleko McDonnell, host of "Good Morning Hawaii" and a big fan of the film. Maleko offers some amazing insights into the care and details that Disney took into making this movie feel authentic to the Hawaiian setting.

Each week on Deep in the Plus, we pull a different movie or TV show from the Disney plus vault and tell you the history, the details, give our review and tell you if it’s worth your time.







This week, we have a classic for you, the very first Disney movie to star Haley Mills – it’s Pollyanna!







A young orphan Pollyanna, played by Hayley Mills, believes life's most difficult problems can always be surmounted by a positive attitude. But when she moves in with her very proper Aunt Polly, played by Jane Wyman, Pollyanna is introduced to a range of disheartened people who challenge her upbeat outlook.







Not to be discouraged, she sets to work spreading hope and good cheer. However, when the entire community begins a campaign in opposition to her aunt, Pollyanna's goodwill is strained.







So travel back to a simpler time as we experience an American classic and we take you deep in the plus.







Pollyanna







While this was the first Disney movie for Haley Mills, she went on to star in some unforgettable films for the company such as The Parent Trap, In Search of the Castaways, Summer Magic and That Darn Cat!







In the 1980s, she also came back to reprise her role as the twins, Susan and Sharon, in Parent Trap II and again in Parent Trap III!  I can only hope we get a chance to see these on Disney+ someday.

This is Deep in the Plus! Every Friday night, we screen a new film or TV show on Disney+ and go over its history, details, and let you know if we think it’s worth a watch. This week, we review the 2006 football drama based on a true story, Invincible, starring Mark Wahlberg.



Picture it: the year is 1976, the city is Philadelphia, and things are looking grim for our protagonist Vince Papale (Wahlberg). After his wife dumps him and he loses his teaching job, the 30-year-old seems to be lost.



A truly unprecedented event occurs when the new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, Dick Vermeil (Greg Kinnear), announces that they will have open tryouts for the team. Will this opportunity give Vince the chance to turn his life around?



Invincible



Disney is no stranger to true-life sports dramas celebrating underdogs such as McFarland USA, Miracle, Remember the Titans, and Glory Road. While this movie did not make a huge splash at the box office, it did pull in a respectable $58.5 Million, and I would definitely count it among the better films in this genre.



The cast, which also includes Elizabeth Banks, Michael Rispoli from The Sopranos, and House of Cards actor Michael Kelly is strong, and the story has a lot of heart. However, despite it being touted as a true story, Disney definitely took more than a few liberties with the details to play up the drama.

Welcome to Deep in the Plus!



In this 1993 live-action retelling of Alexandre Dumas' classic tale, D'Artagnan (played by Chris O'Donnell) travels to Paris hoping to become a musketeer, one of the French king's elite bodyguards, only to discover that they've been disbanded by Cardinal Richelieu (played by Tim Curry). The Cardinal secretly hopes to take the throne for himself.



Fortunately, Athos (Kiefer Sutherland), Porthos (Oliver Platt) and Aramis (Charlie Sheen) have refused to lay down their weapons and continue to protect their king.



Come along with us as we travel back to the time of the Musketeers as we take you, Deep in the Plus!



Three Musketeers



These stars were possibly at the heights of their careers when they joined forced for this film. Kiefer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen, Chris O'Donnell and Oliver Platt do a great job coming together as an on-screen team.  Yet, this movie seems to have missed the mark with audiences as it only made $54 million at the box office and received very lukewarm ratings from critics.



Does it deserve a second chance? Is this the BEST retelling of The Three Musketeers? Watch our show and decide for yourself.



And don't forget, in every episode of Deep in the Plus, you'll get bonus recommendations as we present our "Pick of the Week." This is where we offer suggestions on even more gems from the Disney+ vault. Don't miss it!



Our review of The Three Musketeers is the 16th episode of Deep in the Plus! Make sure to go check out our previous episodes reviewing the back catalog of Disney content on the Disney+ streaming network:

Welcome to Episode 14 of the Deep in the Plus Saga…



Here’s where we go into the Disney+ catalog and take an in-depth look at some of the movies and TV shows that you haven’t gotten around to yet, and we break them down to see if they’re worth your time.



This week, in honor of May the 4th and Revenge of the Fifth – It’s Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars!



Our friends Phineas and Ferb are living happily on Tatooine, just one moisture farm over from Luke Skywalker. They love simply hanging out and creating new adventures under the twin suns, however, they find themselves thrust into a global rebellion when the plans for blowing up the Death Star accidentally fall into their hands.



So let's join the boys, their sister Candace, Perry, Dr. D, and the rest of the gang as they do Star Wars! And May the Force be with you, because we’re going... Deep in the Plus!







This was originally delivered as two separate episode of the "Phineas and Ferb" series, but Disney+ has made it one show and put it out as a combined special for your convenience!



What's unique about this Star Wars parody is that instead of casting the characters in the roles of Luke, Han, Leia, and crew, this story happens alongside of the events of Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope! As a matter of fact, it's very similar to the Timon and Pumba 2004 straight-to-video movie: The Lion King ​1 1⁄2.



So, is this Star Wars episode of "Phineas and Ferb" worth your time? Watch our show and decide for yourself. Do you agree with our thoughts?



And don't forget, in every episode of Deep in the Plus, you'll get bonus recommendations as we present our "Pick of the Week." This is where we offer suggestions on even more gems from the Disney+ vault. Don't miss it!



Our review of Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars is the 14th episode of Deep in the Plus! Make sure to go check out our previous episodes reviewing the back catalog of Disney content on the Disney+ streaming network:

This is Deep in the Plus!



Each week, we pull a different movie or TV show from the Disney+ vault and tell you the history and the details, plus you give our review and tell you if it’s worth your time.



This week, we have a classic for you. It's not a DEEP pick, nor is it the first thing you chose when you logged in to Disney+ for the first time, but it’s Walt Disney’s animated masterpiece, Lady and the Tramp!



This 1955 animated classic follows a coddled cocker spaniel named Lady, whose comfortable life seems to be slipping away once her owners have a baby. After a series of unfortunate events, Lady finds herself on the loose and on her own, until she runs into a tough stray mutt called Tramp who teaches her the rules of life on the streets. A romance begins to blossom between the two dogs, but their many differences, along with more drama at Lady's home, threaten to keep them apart.



So grab a bowl of meatballs and spaghetti and join us on this lovely Bella Notte, as we go... Deep in the Plus!



Lady and the Tramp



Lady and the Tramp was the first film distributed by the Buena Vista Film Distribution company. It was the 15th Disney animated feature film, and the first animated feature to be filmed in the CinemaScope widescreen film process.



And while it was made in the golden age of Disney animation, around such classics as Alice in Wonderland (1951), Peter Pan (1953) and Sleeping Beauty (1959), it doesn't seem to get the same love. Its only presence inside Disney Parks is Tony's Town Square at Walt Disney World, and it's only been Tony's for about 30 years. However, the film did receive a direct-to-DVD sequel in 2001 and a Live Action remake on Disney+ in 2019.



So, does this movie deserve to stand with the rest of the animated features of it's time? Watch this episode and decide for yourself. Is this movie for you? Do you agree with our thoughts?



And don't forget, in every episode of Deep in the Plus, you'll get bonus recommendations as we present our "Pick of the Week." This is where we offer suggestions on even more gems from the Disney+ vault. Don't miss it!
