Little Boy (2015)
Excellent family movie
Not much to say except I'm really annoyed by the critics sometimes. This movie is solid. Has a vintage old-time feel to it. Well acted. Deals with the problems of the times (racism, bullying, war, alcoholism, death) in a dramatic, humorous and clever way.
Great story. Whole family loved it. They dealt with faith in a reasonable way. They pulled heartstrings without being saccharine. The critics are just so dead-set on hating any movie that deals with faith, especially the Christian faith. This movie soft-pedals that faith - but it definitely is a strong element.
Wholeheartedly recommend this movie to families who want to be able to go out together for a movie, and be inspired and entertained at the same time.
Moms' Night Out (2014)
Family-friendly, funny, totally worth it
I don't have much to say except I went with a group of moms, we all laughed hard (to tears, once).
We enjoyed the more sweet poignant moments, and came away from it encouraged.
Ignore the critics.
This is a classic example of the mainstream media bashing a clean, fun, sweet movie.
Well-acted, well-shot, well-intentioned.
We want more films like this.
Hopefully the entertainment industry will see there's a market for it. But the only way they will is if we buy the tickets.
Frozen (2013)
Solid, enjoyable, classic in my book
All I can say is we took 4 kids with us, our own and friends. The audience consistently laughed, reacted, and clapped enthusiastically at the end. My kids and I had the same experience. Funny, touching, decent storyline, fairly good songs (nothing extra special - but it doesn't have to be every time!), beautifully animated. Sidekicks were memorable, hysterical and lovable.
My tween boy, who I thought would grimace at the idea that he had to see a musical with two girls perpetually singing their feelings... walked out of the theater saying it was the best movie he'd seen in a long time - and LOVED it.
