ESCAPE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN (Released to Theaters USA 1975)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì 

Escape to Witch Mountain—interesting concept—presents a movie that still entertains. It serves as a light, easy-on-the-mind movie for a quiet afternoon watch. Actor Eddie Albert adds likeable-ness to the film and sets the movie up for a television series when he learns that there are thousands of children like these two who are lost.

TAMMY AND THE MILLIONAIRE (Theatrical Release USA 1967)

 Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì 

Tammy and the Millionaire—the storyline is a little cliché—serves as a sweet, innocent watch for audiences looking for Cinderella-type stories that are light on the mind. The story is well-written and reflects good ethics and honesty. It is an old-fashioned entertainment piece that is worth its watch.
