Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides continues to steer the same course as its predecessor sequels, focusing on convoluted storylines that zap all the fun and energy that made the first film so great.
Jake and the Never Land Pirates follows much the same formula as Dora, but with a lot more friendly energy, catchier tunes and a couple of old friends even parents can enjoy.
Ideas and situations that were so carefully laid out in the beginning became after thoughts with little consequence.
It might be filled with endless chases, but I was still completely bored throughout. Despite a glitzy facade of stunning desert visuals, the action felt recycled.

More like an infomercial in disguise for the soundtrack.
Despite a couple of uneven parts that may try the patience of some, the whole of Fantasia is a marvel.
Although magnificent and filled with imagination, Fantasia 2000 doesn’t hold up as being particularly ground-breaking or innovative.
An intimate, albeit uneventful, story filled with flashy graphics but not a lot of substance.
A fascinating behind-the-scenes documentary that charts not only a story of tremendous success but sibling rivalry as well.
Combining honest commentary with archival footage, Waking Sleeping Beauty offers a refreshing look at a side large companies often steer clear of.
