Welcome to the most recent "Movies I Watched This Month" post, highlighting the movies I watched, profiled, and reviewed during the month. Whether it’s revisiting older classics, discovering movies for the first time, or catching up on titles I’ve long meant to see, this monthly recap highlights everything I watched over the past few weeks. In April, I watched, reviewed, and profiled 6 movies.
Below you’ll find the full list of films I watched in April, along with my ratings and brief thoughts on each one. Some were great discoveries, others were a bit more mixed, but all of them were part of this month’s movie journey.
James and the Giant Peach is one of Disney’s strangest and most visually unique films, both one of its strengths and its biggest hurdles. Stop-motion animation has to be admired and is impressive in this film, giving it its own distinctive personality. The characters are charming and carry a lot of emotion through the film, making the “found family” aspect really stick. It’s a creative, offbeat film that stands out for its imagination, which I can truly appreciate even though I didn’t love it. Be sure to stick around after the credits (or fast forward) for a bonus scene.
DMFE Rating: ★★★¼☆ (3.25 out of 5 stars)
