    Movie Review: Candy Cane Lane

    Movie Review: Candy Cane Lane

    Eddie Murphy’s family-oriented Christmas movie on Amazon Prime has some nice messages, but it also comes with a bit more content than we’d normally expect in a PG movie.

    TV Review: All the Light We Cannot See

    TV Review: All the Light We Cannot See

    Netflix takes a lyrical novel and turns it into a clunky, sometimes crass miniseries. Once again, the book is better.

    Movie Review: Wish

    Movie Review: Wish

    Though filled with references to Disney’s past triumphs, Wish itself comes with unexpected problems and a lack of inspiration.

Plugged In is Trying to Protect You!!!!

I know that many viewers out there don’t care about Plugged In and think they are trying to boss you around. NEWSFLASH: They are not!! They are only trying to protect you and your family. If you see a movie that is 0 stars, I think you know that that is a movie you do NOT want to take your kids to. If you have seen one, (which I HIGHLY recommend you don’t) you probably know that is not a great movie. Plugged In has reasons to rate these badly rated movies (violence, language, nudity etc.). Yes, people curse in real life, but I believe they don’t mention it because they want you to read the review. Another possible reason is that they want to protect kids who may not know what a bad word is. But the point is, this podcast wants your family to get the best out of a film in a cinema, and generally protect your early teens, younger kids, maybe even yourself. Some movies(I will chose not to mention them) are so bad that Plugged In doesn’t even rate them!!!
So I encourage you to listen to these podcasts and look at the website and PLEASE take the time to see how they rate a movie before you go see it at the cinema.

This is good but.

across the spider verse 2099 spidey is the hero. Think. Jesus dying on the cross was a canon event it needed to happen. Imagine spidey swopping down and saving him. God would have to send Jesus again.
