Escape to Witch Mountain


This was my first time watching this movie in its entirety. I have watched the Disney Channel 90's version quite a few times in my youth so I thought they were the same but there were a lot of differences. In this one, the twins already knew each other and grew up together with a family before being orphaned and sent to live at an orphanage. People just seem to accept that these kids have special powers pretty easily in this movie.

Endurance


This movie was a cross between a Documentary and Drama where the actor played the role of himself. It shows his life and determination to get to the Olympics in 1996. It was interesting to see how he lived in Ethiopia, running miles to school each day and hoping to make it in time and then running home to help work with his family.

Enchanted


Oh, I absolutely love this movie! It needs to make a comeback, now! It was so good. 

Enchanted starts off as an animated movie with a princess, prince, and evil queen/stepmother. As part of an evil scheme, the princess is sent off to the real world where she stays with a man and his daughter and makes rodents clean their apartment. It is all very funny and musical and wonderful.
