[Well today I watched 2 films, Holes (you can see my opinions in the Holes thread) and The Devil and Max Devlin.
I haven't seen The Devil and Max Devlin before and it didn't thrill me. It didn't keep my interest at all. The story itself is quite a good one however I thought it was blatantly obviuos from the start what would happen. I knew he would never go through with it and I knew he would not be punished. I did other things while it was on in the background. Also it felt a little weird at times. Obviously the film was made with pure intentions however when he goes up to Toby at the fair and introduces himself it's just a little weird that he should be after 3 kids. Obviously due to the fact that paedophilia is in the headlines so often today, It just seemed a little creepy. Even though the two leads are big names this film didin't really do much for me. It is another one of those 80s films that Disney made to aim at both adults / children that failed and lead them eventually to set up the "Touchtsone" alias, but unlike some of the others it didn't really stand apart to me.

I watched Treasure Planet! Such an awesome animated movie, with an 'Obvious' storyline.

You thought it was like Atlantis too? Maybe I shouldn't watch this movie then because I didn't like Atlantis one bitRJKD23 wrote:I watched Treasure Planet! Such an awesome animated movie, with an 'Obvious' storyline.But overall, I enjoyed the movie; it reminded me of Atlantis!
It reminded me of Atlantis because of the ADVENTURE theme and finding a 'treasure'!Dan05 wrote:You thought it was like Atlantis too?

Yeah I didn't like it at all either, I was quite disappointed. I kept reassuring myself that it'll pick up as it went alonge but it never did. It's a good thing I rented it first.DisneyFan 2000 wrote:Quite boring. Not the thriller I expected it to be!RJKD23 wrote:Man, that's one movie you only watch ONCE! What'd you think?
