Monsters, Inc. is an amazing movie with a unique world. The movie introduces Monstropolis, a city powered by the screams of children in the human world. The screams are collected by the monsters working at Monsters, Inc. using closet doors to enter the children's rooms. 

Despicable Me is a good movie. The movie starts off showing us how Gru, the protagonist, plans on stealing the moon fueled by the motivation to top the thief who stole the pyramid of Giza. With the help of his minions, this plan takes an unexpected twist when he agrees to adopt three children. 

Coco is an amazing movie packed with emotion and depth. The movie begins with how Miguel dreams of becoming a musician, but their family is against it because of their history with music.

Minions is an okay movie with lots of fun moments. The movie introduces and shows how minions have existed since the beginning of time and have evolved from single celled organisms with one goal, a goal to serve the most evil masters but often they result in their masters death. In this movie, we see the minions look for a new master, a master who would fulfill their requirements. This was the main goal of the movie and once it is achieved we see a simple story take place. 

The fifth season of LEGO Ninjago Masters of Spinjitzu was spooky/amazing. This season introduced a new threat that appeared at the end of season four. As I learned what this ghost wants throughout the season, I also learned newer information about Sensei Wu’s past. Now the ninja do not have their powers because a ghost named Morro possessed Lloyd. Moro is after the realm crystal that is in the first Spinjitzu Masters resting place with a location of unknown origin.

The fourth season of LEGO Ninjago Masters of Spinjitzu was mind-blowing. I loved watching every minute of it because it had a lot of action, adventure throughout a secret island, mystery about Zane, and suspense. This season began with the ninja going their separate ways after the death of Zane. Lloyd brings them together and they receive an invitation to the Tournament of Elements where they are promised that Zane is alive.

The second part of the third season of Ninjago Masters of Spinjitzu was outstanding. I loved how the ninja were backed into a corner but ended up figuring a way to win. The second part of the third season began with the Overlord capturing Lloyd and the ninja outnumbered by the amount of nindroids they had to face. The Overlord’s plan did not end up working so he knew that the only way to become his original form was to get the golden weapons that collided together in space.

The first part of the third season of Ninjago Masters of Spinjitzu was amazing. This season is completely different from the previous two in terms of more action, a better storyline, and a “supercharged” villain. In the first part of season 3 you see that the Overlord is back but trapped in a digital prison. After the destruction of Ninjago City the people rebuilt their homes and called it New Ninjago City with hover cars and hover copters.
