The Complete First Season Of Devious Maids On DVD

March 22, 2014 by Momstart Leave a Comment

I’m so glad The Complete first season of Devious Maids is now on DVD. I’ve been wanting to catch an episode of it and wanted to start at the beginning. I love Susan Lucci so I’m was super excited she found herself a project after All My Children was canceled.

The Complete First Season. Meet five women bonded together by their jobs, their dreams and the dirt they sweep under the rug: Aspiring singer Carmen; Rosie, who longs to be reunited with the child she left back in Mexico; Marisol, whose outward identity masks a desperate hidden agenda; and Zoila and her daughter Valentina – both employed by the delightfully unhinged Genevieve Delatour (Susan Lucci).

Before the season is over, illicit affairs will be revealed and depraved secrets exposed, as we learn the sordid details behind a shocking murder. Start your collection with all 13 addictive episodes plus “sin-tillating” bonus features, and relive the intrigue as murder, mystery and mayhem collide amongst the mansions of Beverly Hills!

Talent/Cast: “Devious Maids” stars Susan Lucci (“Genevieve Delatour”), Anna Ortiz (“Marisol Duarte”) Dania Ramirez (“Rosie Falta”), Roselyn Sanchez (“Carmen Luna”), Judy Reyes (“Zoila Diaz” / “Zoila Del Barrio”), Edy Ganem (“Valentina Diaz” / “Valentina Del Barrio”), Rebecca Wisocky (“Evelyn Powell” ), Tom Irwin (“Adrian Powell”), Brianna Brown (“Taylor Stappord”), Brett Cullen (“Michael Stappord”), andGrant Show (“Spence Westmore”).

Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs 2 Now On Blu-ray & DVD

We received a sample

Kids love Cloudy with A Chance of Meatballs and mine were so excited to see it on the TV at home. CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS 2 arrived on Blu-ray & DVD January 28^ththat was yesterday. WOOT.

The Premise:

After the disastrous food storm in the first film, Flint and his friends are forced to leave the town. Flint accepts the invitation from his idol Chester V to join The Live Corp Company, which has been tasked to clean the island, and where the best inventors in the world create technologies for the betterment of mankind. When Flint discovers that his machine still operates and now creates mutant food beasts like living pickles, hungry tacodiles, shrimpanzees and apple pie-thons, he and his friends must return to save the world.

Sony Pictures Animation certainly knows how to make an entertaining animated feature. "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2" utilizes a nonstop, universally appealing sense of humor and endlessly imaginative visuals. This movie is a colorful feature that reminds me a lot of Jurassic Park 3. Because in that movie, they must go to the island, and the difference of course the the reason they have to go to the island but the similarities are there. I mean monsters chase them at every turn.

Check out a few similarities here:

The lab-coated Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader) settles down with his friends to clean up the leftovers and build a new laboratory with romantic interest and meteorologist Sam Sparks (Anna Faris). He’s assisted by his bushy-eyebrowed father Tim (James Caan), chicken-suited mascot Brent (Andy Samberg), police officer Earl (Terry Crews) and his son Cal (Khamani Griffin), Sam’s cameraman Manny (Benjamin Bratt), and his pet monkey Steve (Neil Patrick Harris). Just as they begin the reconstruction, legendary inventor (legendary theme park creator in Jurassic Park 1) Chester V (Will Forte) lands in his helicopter (lands in his helicopter) to recruit Flint to his massive LiveCorp research facility in San Franjose, California, where he secretly plots to use the youngster and his invention for nefarious purposes (none-too-subtly dubbed "Operation Capture the Invention").

It’s a fun adventure full of colossal and cuddly characters that keep kids interested from beginning to end.

Jake & The Never Land Pirates Never Land Rescue #NeverLandPirates

November 23, 2013 by Momstart Leave a Comment

We received a copy for review.

Our family is a huge fan of Jake & The Never Land Pirates, so much so that we’re so excited to have cable again and are able to watch it On Demand. We also find ourselves watching it whenever we’re in a hotel as we travel together. I love traveling with my kids and we love to have adventures like Jake does!

Jake saves Never Land from vanishing forever in the new JAKE AND THE NEVER LAND PIRATES: NEVER LAND RESCUE that was released on DVD November 19th!

Value-Packed DVD Includes 4 Additional Episodes plus an Exclusive Destiny Sword with Glow in the Dark Stickers! In addition to the extras on the disc listed below, there’s a keen inflatable Sword of Destiny inside the package.

In "Jake and the Never Land Pirates: Never Land Rescue," Jake embarks on his most heroic mission ever as the magic of Never Land begins to disappear just as the ancient Forever Tree seems to be fading away. After a mysterious figure known as "The Guardian" arrives to explain that only the pirate who truly believes in himself can save Never Land from vanishing completely, Jake must break off from the rest of his crew and go alone on a mission to save the Forever Tree, the source of magic throughout all of Never Land. Guiding Jake on his quest is Tinker Bell, who makes her first-ever appearance in the series. (The storyline is secondary to the fact that, all the while, Jake is helped by the “Guardian of Never Land,” whose disguise only obscures him partially, making it pretty easy for little ones to figure out who it really is.)

DreamWorks Pictures Presents People Like Us on Blu-Ray Giveaway

October 6, 2012 by Momstart 147 Comments

People Like us is one of the best movies from last year. Chris Pine is quickly becoming my favorite actor because he’s so charming, it just seems to come so naturally to him and in People Like Us he’s a detestable character but his charm and how he changes his attitude makes you just weak in the knees.

From the studio that brought you the award-winning blockbuster “The Help,” comes an emotional and inspirational story about a young man’s journey of self discovery as he connects with a family he barely knows. Starring Chris Pine (Star Trek), Elizabeth Banks (Hunger Games), Olivia Wilde (Tron) and Michelle Pfeiffer (Dark Shadows), DreamWorks Pictures releases “People Like Us” – a must-own, heartfelt and relatable story – on Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, DVD, Digital and On-Demand on October 2, 2012.

“Charming, funny…and heartfelt”

– Scott Mantz,Access Hollywood

The story is inspired by true life events. The “People Like Us” Blu-ray Combo Pack comes complete with bonus material that delves deeper into the story that inspired the making of this great film.

I saw the movie in the theater and I truly loved it. I’m excited to get to own a copy because it’s just a spectacular movie of family and heart and dysfunction at it’s best. The worst family can become the best family when they all stop and listen to each other and learn from mistakes. And sometimes you’ll be surprised about the reasons behind a decisions that you never agreed with and ended up hating someone for. If that confuses you?????

Go watch the movie.
