Read MoreBig Hero 6 is one of those films that just has so much potential. Having a special place in my heart, the movie from Walt Disney Pictures was based on a comic book series from Marvel. It follows 14-year-old Hiro Hamada (Ryan Potter), as he comes to grips with losing his older brother in a tragic accident. With the help of
Read MoreMinions: The Rise of Gru has finally come to theaters after 2 years of delays thanks to the pandemic. I’ll admit, this wasn’t something exactly on my radar, nor was it even something I was expecting to see in theaters. But, there we were, on a Saturday, with nothing to do after lunch; somehow we all landed on this. Then, to
