This review of the third entry in the Herbie series is due to the request of an animation and film friend of mine, Mike Kobela. Without further ado, here’s my review of the 1977 sequel, Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo!

Hello readers,

Once again I’m sorry to delay my next review, but there are some events going on in my life that are keeping me busy. I have a family wedding going on this week as well as a family member in critical health condition. So dealing with the busyness and emotions related to these events will prevent me from updating this blog until September 18. Thanks for your patience!

Post Delayed!

Sky High was a film that I’d never seen before; it seemed too much like a Disney Channel film to me. But, everyone else in the world seemed to have seen the Mike Mitchell-directed film and loved it! Did I end up loving it as well? Read on to find out!

Well folks, it’s been 5 years since I started this live-action Disney blog! I can’t believe it’s been this long! I had originally planned to watch all the theatrically released live-action Disney films on my own time, but it was comments made by my blogger friend, swanpride, which made me decide to blog about my journey as well!

In 5 years, I’ve watched and reviewed 108 theatrically released live-action Disney films with Oz: The Great and Powerful being my very first review! And there are still so many more theatrically released live-action Disney films that I haven’t gotten to review yet that will keep me busy for another 5 years or more!

Thank you, all you readers out there who continue to read my blog, for your support! Let me know in the comments what your favorite review of mine has been!

Guess the Movie I’m Reviewing on August 14, 2018!

Emil and the Detectives is apparently a German novel that has had multiple film adaptations over the years. One of those adaptations (the 1964 one, to be precise) was actually made by Disney themselves! Is the Disney film any good or is it better left forgotten? Read on to find out!

The Odd Life of Timothy Green was a live-action Disney film that when I saw it for the first time years ago, I thought that it was once of the worst live-action Disney films I’d ever seen.

Granted I hadn’t seen Prom, The Country Bears, or Old Dogs yet!

I mean, this was the film that persuaded Internet reviewer, Doug Walker, to resurrect his previously cancelled Nostalgia Critic character! So when the time came to review this Peter Hedges-directed film, I wasn’t looking forward to it. Was it as bad as I remembered it? Let’s find out as I review The Odd Life of Timothy Green!
