kung_fu_pandaThis was my very first experience watching a featured film in an IMAX theater and I must say I was extremely impressed. The screen was incredible towering six stories tall and eighty feet wide. Even more amazing was the quality of sound and seating arrangement. The IMAX is the King of all movie theaters.

Kung Fu Panda was one of Dreamworks best animated features to date. The storyline was simple but executed very well and the movie exceeded all my expectations.

Nacho Libre (Theaters)

Nacho Libre is a film good enough for DVD release only. The first twenty minutes of the film is an utter waste of time. Knowing this film is a comedy, you are expecting a big laugh, but they come too far and in between. Actually, I didnt laugh very much at all watching this film. Alot of the good laughs were given away in the previews of this film and although I tried to enjoy it, it was very hard to do so. Skip this movie in the theaters. At best, its a decent rental when there is nothing better to watch on the shelf.

Synopsis: Nacho is a young man who was raised in a monastery in Mexico and now works there as the cook. Fueled by his passion for wrestling, he dons a mask and cape and picks up a partner to compete in a local Lucha Libre tournament to try for the $200 prize so he can buy better food for the kids and achieve respect. When a new nun, Sister Encarnacion, arrives at the monastery, he tries to win her adoration as well while attempting to prove that being a Luchador isn’t a sin and win the grand prize at a battle royal tournament so he can buy a bus for the kids.
