Narrated by Rick Sebak, the documentarian who invented the "scrapbook"-style of chronicling memories through film, 'Kennywood Memories' is a thoughtful, sweet, and nostalgic look at the century-old amusement park Kennywood in western Pennsylvania. For many of us, Kennywood is the place where dreams are made of and a summertime staple that can never be missed. Even now living in California, I visit the wonderful Kennywood every single year and remember all the great days & nights spent there.
Even though Kennywood has changed plenty, 'Kennywood Memories' shows us all the great rides from the past we remember . . . and some many of us never got to see. A century's worth of history is included in this documentary, which (like many) is an annual viewing tradition prior to actually going back to the amazing park itself.
Overall, there isn't a single bad thing I can say about this documentary, but I would love to see Mr. Sebak revisit the park for another documentary to show all the changes (especially now with the first new roller coaster in years being built this year).
Final Verdict: 10/10.
