Unfortunately, that is my highest compliment.  Although Oz, the Great and Powerful succeeds in pleasing their demographic–I was left wanting.  With that said, I am sure many will love this film and kids (especially) will enjoy the story and beautiful imagery.

First of all, I should state that I like The Wizard of Oz, but I am not a fanatic about it.  The new Oz follows its lead in being a wholesome family film, but it does not even get close to its classic status.  While some felt that Disney was taking a gamble in trying to reboot a beloved classic, it seems to have paid off for them (sequel is already in the works).  Hey, they have to make the $$$.

Susan Marlowe CPA looks forward to another movie night

Well, since it is Spring break, I am planning a movie theme night for my nieces and nephews. The theme is going to be pirates. I am going to show the kids Pirates! Band of Misfits and then I am going to give them eye-patches and feed them pirate-shaped cheese snacks. I have found that I can never go wrong with cheese when it comes to this crowd. It should be great!

Susan Marlowe CPA and Miss Minoes

Greetings from Susan Marlowe CPA! I have been watching this adorable Dutch movie called Miss Minoes.

It is all about a young lady who used to be a cat and how she helps a young reporter get great scoops with her cat connections. I do not recommend it for very young children since the villain is an animal abuser (this is not graphically portrayed but it is made clear) and this abuse may be disturbing to more senstive little ones. I would say that the ideal age is 8-10. Be sure to check out this adorable film!
