Thanks for the memories!

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It is a good movie, but is clear not for kids such dark and complex movie.Most of the characters´s personalities are more like a scale of gray instead of black and white! It is not clear who are the good guys or the bad guys making the movie heavy and tense .Children does not see the world with that complexity, for them a person can only bad or only good, not a "mix of bag"! The hero is a clear male Cinderella, he is a really good character, honest person, alone in the world and working for others that does not appreciate his work and take advantage of him. Almost the whole movie the hero suffers emotional abuse.As a male Cinderella he also has a " fairy godfather" represented by an old rich man that just like magic gives him his dream : The jorney to Atlantis! The travel to Atlantis is just unnecessary, boring and it takes 25 minutes of the movie. For me Disney could had cut this part with a song exactly like Pocahontas when John Smith is traveling for the new world.Finally, they arrived to Atlantis and everything start to get illogical. The king/chief refuse the explorers spite of they have been trapped 8.000 years and its society is slowly getting amnesia and disappearing. There is no time to build up the Atlantis´s characters, because it is already the middle of the movie and the actions alredy started. Not only that, you get a unpleasant surprise to discover the characters are alive after 8.000 years of the flood! Meaning that Disney could had built them up at the beggining of the movie since they were going to be alive anyway.After a fast tour around Atlantis, the villans´s personalities show up their true nature that displays some characteristics of mental disosder such as Psychopathy or Narcisism, since they have a need for grandiosity, lack of empathy toward others and believe they are more important than everybody's else.The hero does not fight back over the sabotage and let be clear that the villans are just greedy, evil and selfish looking for fame, power and money over others misery. The cool thing is the hidden message, because the villans could not see the lost the eternal life because they were to greedy to see what was in front of them! At the end the hero reacts and with his incredible-genius intelligence he teaches how to pilot a ancient drone in such incredible 5 min. So the evilest villans are killed and everybody get what they want . The leftover crew did not have a real change of heart and contined greedy , not seeing they lost the eternal life.My conclusion of this movie is that I loved the message behind but it should never had being an animated fiction-action tale or for kids. Please remake this movie but this time not animated

A young adventurer named Milo Thatch (Michael J. Fox) joins an intrepid group of explorers to find the mysterious lost continent of Atlantis.The film has the makings of a cult classic. Joss Whedon was the first writer to be involved with the film but soon left to work on other Disney projects. According to him, he "had not a shred" in the movie, which is a shame. The artistic style comes from the same hand as the creator of "Hellboy", which probably attracted a certain audience. And the protagonist is a descendant of the the legendary Blackbeard, which opened up some interesting world-building possibilities.But the story is not as good as it could be, and the idea of different languages is cool but simplistic. The idea that a language an be translated letter by letter in nonsense, on top of the fact that "Iceland" and "Ireland" would both be in English... that is a bit silly.

Atlantis: The Lost EmpireThe hardest part of getting to Atlantis is convincing your GPS that it is not Atlanta.Fortunately this animated-adventure is set prior to voice-activate navigation.Discredited cartography Milo (Michael J. Fox) finds a willing investor (John Mahoney) for his expedition to the lost city of Atlantis. Paired with a submarine captain (James Garner) and his motley crew, Milo and his maps disembark.They eventually encounter an Atlantean princess (Cree Summer) who needs Milo's help to free her mother from captivity inside of a crystal that absorbed her and the island to protect them from destruction. But Milo's shipmates want the crystal for nefarious purposes.The most underrated Disney movie, this song free, box-office bomb from 2001 has gone on to become one of Disney's few cult hits thanks to its Jules Verne influence and character designs by Mike Mignola.Incidentally most expeditions to find Atlantis ended in mutiny, then cannibalism.Green Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

Disney's 41st full-length animated feature film is a story about a young adventurer named Milo Thatch, who joins a group of explorers to find the lost continent of Atlantis.This movie brings back Beauty and the Beast directors Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise, who gave us quite an adventurous movie full of sci-fi action and drama. Being a film set in 1914, the character dialog didn't sound too slapstick or modern, which fits the story better. The animation wasn't as colorful or vibrant as in earlier animated pieces in the Disney canon, but it is serviceable. The visual effects, particularly for the action and magic scenes, were done well and mesmerizing.However, there was very little storyline to the movie due to its predictable moments, lack of interesting characters and character development and limited intrigue. Nothing really sticks out or captures my attention and there is room for plot holes to fill, as much of the magic roots of Atlantis (like the electrical flying cars and how the Atlantis people survived for so long) were never really explained.Overall, the Atlantis concept of the story is interesting, but the it's not one of the better Disney movies out there.Grade C-
