American Journey Continues West
Reviewed by dnmbjsjnap for An American Tail: Fievel Goes West at 2010-01-06 12:29:22
An American Tail: Fievel Goes West continues theme of mice as immigrants trying to make it in America and the cats as the leaders who exploit their little opportunity. Due to poverty and overpopulation in the cities, immigrants emigrate west hoping for a better life yet still find exploitation. The theme of exploitation is balanced well with the notion that the immigrants were the backbone of American development as it expanded west. The immigrants were exploited, yet they continued labor in hopes of fortune that was rarely reached. The film also shows that you can be happy in times of trouble if you believe in yourself; a powerful ideal not to lose.

Steve Martin at his best again!!!
Reviewed by freakformovies for The Pink Panther 2 at 2009-05-13 16:58:55
If you saw The Pink Panther 2 and thought it was ok,or terrible then think again. The Pink Panther has been stolen again and this time the clumsy bumbling Insector Closeu (Steve Martin) is on the case to find the pink panther diamond with his sidekick and a group of CIA agents. With lots of action, humor, and some love this turns out to be three/three and a half bones and is also way beter than the first. Rated PG and 1hr. 32 minutes.

A fine effort by the funniest historical comics ever. As always, the references are spot-on, and the humor (although decidedlt British) translates well to the American viewer. The onlt reall silly part was the "space chase" sequence, but I loved ito too, just for being so non-sequitor.

Creepy, creepy, creepy. The effects and events are too much for some, but real horror folks might like it. Just not for the quemish
