My Take on the Movie

My kids had noticed that a new rendition of the series I grew up with was on The Disney Channel recently and I have to say that I was intrigued. I had yet to watch the new series until I received this and now after watching this I have to say that I loved the new series! This DVD comes with a number of great episodes and really gives you a good feel for what the series has to offer. The series itself has some amazing cast members and they do a great job at making the series their own while still giving a head nod to the original series too. All of the characters were so much fun, but I will be a bit honest and say that I was excited to see what David Tennant would do with the character of Scrooge McDuck, and I was not disappointed! The series has action, mystery, humor and more and is great to watch as a whole family!

My Take on the Game

This game was a blast! I remember playing this game back on NES in 1989 and it was so much fun then especially as this was the heyday of the DuckTales television cartoon. While the game was very similar to the older version, I will say the addition to the HD graphics were spectacular and you get to have a ton of fun bouncing on the heads of your enemies with the can of Scrooge. This was a a lot of fun though it is a bit shorter than I would have liked, as you just get into the game and then the game is done unfortunately. The nice thing though is that there are differing levels of difficulty that you can play to challenge yourself along the way.
