    Any Bias? Yup, I love the Toy Story movies. I was definitely looking forward to seeing this one too.

    Review: Overall, I liked it. I thought it was better than Toy Story 4, but not better than the first three movies. The message in this movie was thoughtful and gives you something to think about. But, that’s a different topic for a different day. The animation was top notch as usual and so was the voice acting. Even though this was the 5th movie in the franchise, it never felt like it, meaning it did not feel like a cash grab type of sequel. Which is something you can’t really say too often for a long running franchise.

    I wholeheartedly recommend watching it. You won’t be disappointed, especially if you are a big fan of the Toy Story movies in general.

    Any Bias? I loved the show and I was looking forward to the movie.

    Review: I thought the movie was entertaining and I liked it. Not sure why the critics were harsh. It wasn’t perfect by any means, but it was decent & it had its moments. I’d recommend watching it especially if you liked the show. There really isn’t too much more to say to be honest. So this review will be short and sweet.

  • The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026)

    Info: Rated PG. To learn more about this movie, please visit IMDb: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) – IMDb

    Where to Watch: You can rent or purchase this movie at most digital movie retailers. As of this writing, it’s not available on any streaming service.

    Any Bias? Yup, I grew up playing the games and love them. I’m a huge Mario fan!

    Review: While I enjoyed it overall, I felt like it was missing something. It’s like they failed to capture that Mario magic they captured so well in the first one. Some scenes felt forced and rushed in general. This is not a complete waste of time to watch, just don’t really expect terribly too much from it.
