DVD The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2D Version Only)
Writer/director/editor/special-effects-supervisor Robert Rodriguez (Spy Kids, Desperado) continues to storm the movie world with The Adventures of SharkBoy and LavaGirl in 3-D. A young boy named Max (Cayden Boyd) finds the real world crashing into his dreams: His parents fight, bullies harrass him at school, and his teacher advises him to get a grip on reality. But Max's faith in his fantasies is so strong that his superheroic creations SharkBoy (Taylor Lautner) and LavaGirl (Taylor Dooley) crash into Max's classroom and take him off to rescue the fantastic planet he dreamed up. Towards the end, SharkBoy and LavaGirl crumbles with clumsy story gaps and bland moral advice, but most of the movie explodes with visual invention. A clockwork villain with electrical limbs commands an army of extension-cord snakes; SharkBoy uses his claws to engrave a diagram of the solar system into a chalkboard; LavaGirl's burning feet melt an ice bridge as she runs across it. It's disappointing that Rodriguez's storytelling flounders, but sections of deliciously fluid movie-making make The Adventures of SharkBoy and LavaGirl in 3-D worth seeing nonetheless. Also featuring David Arquette (Eight Legged Freaks), Kristin Davis (Sex in the City), and George Lopez (Real Women Have Curves). --Bret Fetzer
Review(s): DVD The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2D Version Only)
Overpriced, bad acting, 3-D glasses not included!!!
The title about says it all. The movie we bought was over $20. It did not come with 3-D glasses, which pretty much defeats the purpose of buying a 3-D movie. The acting was terrible. Obviously a product this bad should - but does not - come with a money back guarantee.
Robert Rodriguez is back with 3-D
In 2003, Robert Rodriguez released Spy Kids 3D: Game Over, and even included 3D glasses and 2D on the dvd, and now it brought this film out earlier this year, along with both film in 3D and 2D, along with 2D only version, which I had to get from the video store, even through I didn't really know it at the time. This movie has I have hard was based on an idea by his son Rebel Rodriguez, after seeing the scene in Spy Kids 3 (3D) Game Over, in which they took a ride on lava. Most of the story follows a kid named Max, was met Shark Boy and Lava Girl, but nobody will believe him, even his classmates. As the movie opens Max (Cayden Boyd) is telling a story about how he meet Shark Boy (Taylor Lautner) and Lava Girl (Taylor Dooley) to his class, and like I said before, they just don't beleive him. And even his teacher Mr. Electricidad (George Lopez) tells him secretly have class to make some friends, and even that they are just all pretend, and just live in the real world, there is also a Bully Linus (Jacob Davich) who picks on him, even in class, but Mr. Electricidad still defends Max, and tells Linus to stop picking on Max. And at home, all his Dad (David Arquette) and Mom (Kristen Davis) does his fight, you have to wonder if dirvoce is in the question. But luck changes for Max when Shark Boy and Lava Girl shows up in class, even during what looks like to be a tornato, and annouces they are looking for Max. Also Max likes to keep a dream Journel to help him remember his dreams, even the class Bully Linus steals it and messes it up. Shark Boy and Lava Girl needs Max to save thier planet, and they only have 45 minutes left to do so from Mr. Elertic that is also played by George Lopez, and all the rest of the class, or some at least show up at the planet in some kind of role.
Interesting Story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl was very exciting ever since the first minute of the movie start. Shark Boy has rows of sharp teeth in his mouth while anything Lava Girl touches would melt.
A boy named Max was needed to save the world from a large eathquake. Max was a small boy who loves to explore. He also wanted to be like Shark Boy and Lava Girl as super heros, the moment he first met them.
The movie is very intersting when a 3D movie was showing in a cinema. It was like you were in the movie itself. The moment the two super heros were in the 3D movie, everytime you stop to catch your breath, it would be a frentic moment as you can't breath properly.

The simple pleasure of watching a living car squirt oil in a villain's face just never goes away. Disney, in their effort to revitalize the Herbie franchise, has made the wise choice of not trying too hard--aside from a small bit of skateboarding action, just about every element of Herbie: Fully Loaded would fit right into the 1963 original (groovily titled The Love Bug) or its various sequels.

The penguins steal the show. In the sprightly Madagascar, a mid-life crisis inspires Marty the Zebra (voiced by Chris Rock) to escape from his lifelong home, a New York zoo. His equally pampered friends--Alex the Lion (Ben Stiller), Gloria the Hippo (Jada Pinkett Smith), and Melman the Giraffe (David Schwimmer)--then escape to bring him back. Unfortunately, their attempt at damage control persuades zoo officials that the animals are unhappy, so all four get shipped to an animal preserve in Kenya...only a squad of maniacal penguins change the destination to Antarctica. The quartet end up on an island where, in addition to meeting some hedonistic lemurs, they learn about the food chain--and that Alex is a different link on the chain from the other three. Madagascar doesn't...

When a shark accidentally clobbers himself, a small fish named Oscar (voiced by Will Smith, I, Robot) just happens to be around, prompting everyone to believe that he killed the shark himself. This lie soon makes Oscar a celebrity, worshipped by the general mass of fish, wooed by a glittering golddigger (Angelina Jolie, Girl, Interrupted), missed by his best friend (Renee Zellweger, Cold Mountain)--and hunted by the godfather of great whites (Robert De Niro, Goodfellas). Can a vegetarian shark named Lenny (Jack Black, School of Rock) get Oscar out of this mess? The formulaic story of Shark Tale never reaches the giddy heights of Pixar's output (Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc., Toy Story) or the freewheeling comedy of Shrek,...
