Zambezia

My rating: 

Today, I went to see the movie Zambezia with my grandmother and my brother. The movie was in Hebrew, but we still enjoyed it. It is about a young falcon named Kai, who lives with his father, Tendai. One day, Kai flies away from his home to a huge bird city called Zambezia, where he tries to join a group of professional flying birds known as the Hurricanes, but he is only accepted as a trainee. In Zambezia, he meets Sekhuru, the founder and head of Zambezia(also a falcon), and his daughter, Zoe. However, when his father follows him to Zambezia, he gets caught by a lizard! Now Kai must rescue his father and Zoe and save Zambezia from the lizard which threatens its existence. Kai puts his own life in danger, jumps down from the cliff after the lizard, rescues his father and Zoe, and becomes Zambezia’s hero and a full Hurricane. I liked the idea that Kai, as he grows up, is trying to find his identity and become indepentent. At the same time, he remains a good and devoted son to his father and a loyal friend to his newly acquired mates and doesn’t hesitate to risk his life to save them from evil.

Also, here is the Zambezia trailer.

Candy and Clyde

My rating: 

Here is another really fun game, Candy and Clyde! In this game, you can choose to be either naughty(Clyde) or nice(Candy) and do stuff like taking down wall paintings(if you are Clyde) and put trash in the recycling bin(if you are Candy), but you only have 3 lives. So good luck!

Cars 2

My rating: 

Yesterday, I saw the movie Cars 2 again and I enjoyed it like I did in theaters. It’s not as good as the first but will still amuse kids. It is about a tow truck named Mater, who is a race car named Lightning McQueen’s best friend. But one day, during one of Lightning’s races, he is mistaken as  a spy by two secret agents named Finn McMissile and Holley Shiftwell, who want to stop a car named Professor Zundapp. Professor Z wants to destroy race cars who are racing in the World Grand Prix, which is a race around Tokyo, Italy, and London. Now Mater must help Finn and Holley defeat Professor Z and save the cars who are racing in the World Grand Prix, which includes Lightning. The voice cast of the movie includes Owen Wilson as Lightning McQueen, Larry the Cable Guy as Mater, Micheal Caine as Finn McMissile, and Emily Mortimer As Holley Shiftwell. I think it is a movie about friendship and I would recommend this movie for everyone, including adults.

Also, here is the website of the movie. It includes fun games, cool videos (which includes trailes and clips), and more! And here is the Cars 2 trailer.

Ice Age: Continental Drift

My rating: 

Yesterday, I went to see the movie Ice Age: Continental Drift with my grandmother and my brother. We really enjoyed the movie and thought it was funny. It is about Manny, a mammoth, Sid, a sloth, and Diego, a saber-toothed cat, who get seperated from Ellie, Manny’s wife, and Peaches, their teenage daughter by the Continental Drift. It is a true theory of how the ancient “supercontinent” Pangea broke into 7 continents, which include Africa, Europe, Asia, North and South America and Antarctica(In the movie, the Continental Drift is caused by a saber-toothed squirrel named Scrat, who tries to get his acorn in all 4 movies, but barely ever succeeds). In the ocean, they find a huge pirate ship led by an orangutan named Captain Gutt, and the crew includes an elephant seal named Flynn,a small rabbit named Squint, and a saber-toothed cat named Shira, with whom Diego later falls in love. Together, Manny, Sid and Diego must defeat the pirates and reunite with Ellie and Peaches. The movie tells us about the importance of true values like family, friendship and love, is against negative characteristics of pursuit of power and betrayal. I really liked the voice cast of the movie, which includes Ray Romano as Manny, Keke Palmer as Peaches, Queen Latifah as Ellie, Peter Dinklage as Captain Gutt, Jennifer Lopez as Shira, Josh Gad as Louis, a molehog who is Peaches’ best friend, and Drake as Ethan, a mammoth who Peaches has a crush on.
