“The Wild Robot” REVIEW
“Kung Fu Panda 4”: Review
Jack Black is back as Po tries to master his inner spiritual leader training while also trying to find his next protege. One thing about this newest addition, it shows audiences to not underestimate the most unlikely candidate. It’s a message that is refreshing to see especially in this world.
In addition to Black, the film also brings back Dustin Hoffman who reprises his role as Shifu and brings new voices including Viola Davis as The Chameleon and Awakafina who is not new to the DreamWorks world as she was also in Migration which came out just a few months ago. All of the voices bring their unique flair to the already familiar Kung Fu Panda family.
At just an hour and 34 minutes runtime, Kung Fu Panda will have you going on yet another Asian adventure where peace is definitely a virtue. One thing about this fourth film, the ending does leave a few questions as to whether or not this is this end. On one side, it does tie up loose edges where one could say this is the end, but also it leaves hope for a future if not for Po at least in his young Zhen protege. All we can do is wait and see.
For now, Kung Fu Panda 4 came out in theaters March 8th and is currently playing in one near you.

The “Boss” Is In
Alec Baldwin is the Boss Baby in the latest animated movie about what happens when a new baby comes into the picture.
Told from the point of view of seven-year old big brother, Tim the Dreamworks Film follows the creativity of little boy as he discovers the truth about where babies come from in the form of a slick dressing, talking boss baby, who has been sent down from Baby Co to stop their arch rival Puppy Co from unveiling their latest puppy creation.
At an hour and thirty-seven minute run time, The Boss Baby will lead you on the creative adventure of a seven-year old and his baby brother as they face many challenges including the ultimate one that all siblings are forced to face, “how to bond as brothers”.
The Boss baby stars an all-star cast doing the voices including Toby Macguire as the narrator and Adult Tim. Young Tim is voiced by Miles Christopher Bakshi. Lisa Kudrow and Jimmy Kimmel voice the tired, overworked parents and Steve Buscemi voice the CEO of Puppyco and former “Boss Baby”, Francis Francis, who wants to do everything in his powers to turn the public’s love from baby to puppy by creating the “forever puppy”
The Boss Baby came out on March 21 and has done far better than expected as it has reached close to 100 thousand since its opening debut and taking number one at the box office for last week.
It’s currently playing in a theater near you. See it with your siblings and you will be pleasantly surprised. It’ll show you the power of brother and sister bonding.
