      As the people of Wakanda mourn the loss of King T'Challa, they must protect their home from intervening worldly powers, while finding a new Black Panther. This is a good, enjoyable Marvel Film. I found a hidden message towards the climax of the film about forgiveness. If you wanna know more about that in detail, go see the film Cause I'm not spoiling that here. If you looking for a good time at the movies, I recommend this one. Parents, This is a Marvel movie, and it contains your average PG-13 rated Marvel violence, but if you like, click here before taking your kids.

Prey for the Devil

 Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 1 hour 33 minutes

Release Date: October 28, 2022

Director: Daniel Stamm

Starring: Jaqueline Byers, Virginia Madsen, Colin Salmon, Nicholas Ralph, Ben Cross

      This Exorcism movie, is about a young nun who believes she's answering a calling to be the first female exorcist, and she finds herself in in a battle with a young girl who she believes is possessed by the same demon that once possessed her own mother years ago. Parents, This movie is definitely NOT for kids! Even though it's rated PG-13, it does have some scary moments that will probably frighten younger viewers. It is an exorcism movie though, and probably the first one that I've seen. At least in a theater, that is. Although I like the movie, but it is a very intense one. So parents, avoid this movie! If your kids tend to get frightened by some movies, make them avoid this movie.

The Munsters

 Rated: PG

Runtime: 1 hour 49 minutes

Release Date: September 27, 2022

Director: Rob Zombie

Starring: Sheri Moon Zombie, Cassandra Peterson, Jeff Daniel Phillips

     This direct-to-video reboot of The Munsters, is the story of how Herman and Lily munster first met and fell in love, and their journey from Transylvania to an American suburb. This movie isn't as bad as they say it is. I thought is was a pretty good movie. However, unlike most of the movies reviewed on this blog, The Munsters is not playing in theaters. I pre-ordered it on Blu-Ray, but I believe it can be streamed on Netflix, and I bet it's a good movie to watch it the whole family during Spooky Season (aka Halloween). So, if you like Give this movie a look.

DC League of Superpets

 Rated: PG

Runtime: 1 hour 46 minutes

Release Date: July 29, 2022

Directors: Jared Stern, Sam Levine

Featuring the voices of: Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Vanessa Bayer, Diego Luna, John Krasinski, Kate McKinnon

        This animated film is about Superman's dog Krypto (voiced by Johnson), who at first thinks that there's a different meaning to A dog is a man's best friend (or however you say it). Because he and Superman grew up together in a farm near a little known town called Smallville. But when Superman, and the other members of the Justice League are captured. Krypto teams up with a group of shelter pets, and form a league of Super pets, and save the man of steel, and the rest of the Justice League from a evil villain's evil scheme.

     I think it's a fairly good movie. Like I said in the video below, I think it's a good movie that kids will enjoy. Parents, If your kids had a choice, of seeing either this movie, or Minions, Thor, or Paws of Fury, I'd say take them to see this one. Because, if you've been wanting to take the kids to a DC movie, but your worried that it may be a little too violent for them, don't worry, this film is not violent. It's rated PG. It should be ok for them.

     While spending years attempting to return home, Buzz Lightyear faces Zurg and his army of robots, while they attempt to steal his fuel source. This movie, deserves to be on the big screen.
