Kung Fu Panda 2 is a barrel of rollicking fun with more storyline and far more action than the first. Finally, a movie where the 3D is actually put to use in an imaginative way that actually adds to the entertainment value. And, like the best animated films, the script provides tons of laughs for, not just kids, but every age group.
TGATP doesn’t understand all the hoopla around Bridesmaids! It just wasn’t funny. I am well past tired of the “Revenge of the Nerds” thing that is going on in Hollywood and…
Produced by T.D. Jakes and Tracy Edmonds, Jumping The Broom is a fun romantic comedy that will put a smile on your face and warm your heart.

It is very important going in to understand that The Adjustment Bureau is NOT “Inception” or “the Matrix.” I expected a story as intricate and amazing as those films and was sorely disappointed.

That said, there are few films more charmingly romantic than this.
