Nola Devlin (Poppy Montgomery) is a frumpy magazine editor who is often teased by her coworkers because of her being overweight. But, during night time, she is in front of her computer screen and then she becomes the famous advice columnist Belinda Apple. But then her secret identity is threatened by the superiors of the Magazine she is working for. So, she's forced to face the issue as her life begins to change along the way.

I actually liked the whole film. There were no evil stepsisters. only an evil boss. No glass slippers just a column in a magazine that is being threatened. And for her to find her true love. If you just want to be entertained... I'd recommend you this.

Princess Rosalinda(Demi Lovato) is in danger! An evil dictator is threatening to take the thrown. She was then placed under the Princess Protection Program, a secret organization funded by royal families all over the world that looks after the princess in danger.

Anyway, this is a typical Disney film. Very good for kids age 6-15. and for teenagers at heart. Not really for adults. :) only for teenyboppers. :)

Overview and Review of the movie Camp Rock directed by Matthew Diamond.

This tv movie centered on a girl named Mitchie Torress (Demi Lovato) who wanted so much to go to a summer musical camp called "Camp Rock". She loves music and is a closet singer/composer. Her mom who got a job to cater to the Camp finally got her in on a discount.

On the other hand, Connect 3 band members Nate (Nick Jonas) and Jason (Kevin Jonas) accompanies Shane Gray (Joe Jonas) to go to Camp Rock to teach dance class as penance for misbehaving in public.

It's a nice good, teenie story. But, i think i'm way too old for these movies. Those teens who are into the Jonas Brother's would sure enjoy this. Same ol plot something you can figure out. :) Entertaining, still. ;)

Some Quote...

Shane Gray: So here's some advice. It's not all about your image. None of it means anything unless people see who you really are. And your music has to be who you really are. It's gotta show how you feel, or it doesn't mean anything.

Saving Jessica Lynch - 2003

Category: TV Movie

Genre: War

Director: Peter Markle

Casts:

Nicholas Guilak - Mohammed Al-Rehaief

Laura Regan - Private Jessica Lynch

Review and Overview of Saving Jessica Lynch a TV Movie directed by Peter Markle.

This TV movie is based on a true story of the rescue of 19 yr. old Private Jessica Lynch by the United States army in Iraq.

The opening went good specially the part where the 507th Maintenance Unit entered an Iraqi territory in Nasiriya unknowingly. They got captured when a mobile Jessica was riding on along with their troop crashed to a big supply truck.

Although there was nothing "heroic" about Jessica being in a hospital bed but, I guess the story is not just about Jessica Lynch but it's about Mohammed Al-Rehaief who was the "hero" of the story. He was a lawyer who risked his life along with his family to help save Jessica Lynch. In the movie, he did not approve to most of his country's ways.

Although, there were a few controversies surrounding the movie which I particularly don't understand. I'm sure there were flaws and a lot of things were added as what was stated before it started. It's just BASED on a true story.

All in all the movie was good. The opening was great. It gives you the feeling of being there minus the blood. You can see it with both eyes wide open (unlike some movies where they show you all the horrific details of a war). The sound effects was good.
