GOAT in AMC Dolby

GOAT in AMC Dolby

FINALLY I am providing my 1st movie review in 2026!!

From the Studio that gave us Spider-Man across the Spider-Verse comes a new entertaining Animated Film, Goat.

The story follows a small Goat (Will) who has big dreams about joining the Pro League. Will soon gets a once-in-a lifetime opportunity to join the pros and play “Roar Ball” a high intensity co-ed, full contact sport that is dominated by the Fastest, Fiercest animals on the planet.

Will’s team mates are not thrilled about having a small goat on the team because he is small and his skills are unproven. But of course Will is determined to prove he belongs and he wants to revolutionize the sport and prove once and for all that size does not matter and “Smalls can Ball”. The story unfolds from there…

The voice cast is outstanding. The animation is excellent and the story provides a solid message for young and old. There is enough familiar action in GOAT to show it belongs among the best animated movies.

Goat is worth a look!!

This is a 4 Star Movie!!

Mufasa: The Lion King in IMAX

Mufasa: The Lion King in IMAX

In this installment, “Mufasa: The Lion King” enlists Rafiki to relay the legend of Mufasa to a young lion cub Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala, with Timon and Pumbaa lending their signature commentary along the way. 

The story is told in flashbacks, the story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka–the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny. Their bonds will be tested as they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe of White Lions. The story unfolds from there…

This is a decent prequel and the younger set will be entertained, but this installment would have been better served if shown as a fully animated movie. The photorealistic animation style was ill-served. The IMAX aspects were very good.

A nice tribute to the late James Earl Jones who has loaned his voice to “The Lion King” Franchise.

This is a 3 Star Movie!!
