    The Prince of Egypt, by Albert W. Vogt III

    One of the easier movies to discuss for a Catholic reviewer is The Prince of Egypt (1998).  That statement is not without caveats, however.  Personally, it is difficult to get through… Read more “The Prince of Egypt, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Shortcut to Happiness, by Albert W. Vogt III

    There is no such thing as a Shortcut to Happiness (2007).  You might also be surprised by how true of a statement that almost was.  Upon doing a little research, it… Read more “Shortcut to Happiness, by Albert W. Vogt III”

    Benny & Joon, by Albert W. Vogt III

    The Accountant 2, by Albert W. Vogt III

    Is it The Accountant 2?  I ask because during the opening credits, it was rendered as The Accountant2.  I get what they are going for since the main character, Christian Wolff… Read more “The Accountant 2, by Albert W. Vogt III”
