Alice
This is not your typical Alice in Wonderland. This is SyFy's version and it is great. Also since it is SyFy's version and only has been aired on SyFy it is not movie rated. But at the most it is TV-14, but I really don't think it would be that extreme.
It is about a girl Alice who while looking for her new boyfriend Jack, follows the "white rabbit" into the looking glass and into Wonderland. Through a sequence of events she learns that all humans that come into Wonderland are called oysters because the Queen has drugged them and is sucking out all of their emotions to make tea. So Alice teams up with Hatter to try and find Jack, and stop the Queen.
Now this synopsis may sound very strange, but let's face it... Alice is strange. But I promise it is a fun take on an old story and is a good movie. It has humor, it has romance, and even though it is about 3 hours long it goes by quickly. So rent it!

Old Dogs
Rolo Grade: B
Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Popcorn Grade: B-
Percy Jackson thinks he is an average teenage boy going through high school with ADHD and dyslexia. He has a loving mother and a very rude step-father. He does not remember his real father who left when he was just a baby, but Percy soon finds out that his real father is Poseidon, god of the sea. Percy then gets shoved into this world full of gods, demons, and crazy teenagers. All in all Popcorn liked the movie. It had some great action and the story line is just fun. He would recommend spending the money to see this movie in the theaters.

Fame
Rating: PG
Rolo Grade: C-
If you are in the mood for music and dancing then you might want to watch this movie, but that would be the only reason. However if you are really in the mood for a movie with music and dancing I could recommend better ones than Fame.
This is a movie about a bunch of kids at the Performing Arts School in NY. There are little plots here and there, but mostly it is supposed to portray these kids trying to be famous and "find themselves". Really this movie was a bad version of Step Up, Save the Last Dance, and High School Musical. The only reason I am giving this movie an average grade is because there was some good dancing and music, but if you are thinking about seeing this movie I would say don't. You should watch one of the other movies I have mentioned.
