I was so excited to finally go out and see this marvelous movie. I wanted to go last weekend but we couldn't find a babysitter. At first glance I thought this movie looked like it might be a crude comedy. I was sooo wrong!! I enjoy Steven Carell but know that he's been in some movies that I won't see. Anyway, I went here to review it before we saw it. Its become a habit to go to Plugged in Online before we see a movie. I don't want any nasty surprises after we spend good money. I loved this movie because I walked away excited about life!!!! I love his family too. When I'm a Grandma I want the family environment portrayed in the movie!!! Actually, now would be even better. There's two parts in particular that I looooooved. When the family is exercising together and holding a talent show in the living room.
Oh, I loved Meet the Robinson's too. It had a wonderful message about not giving up. The characters are great! I'm buying this movie, and I don't usually by any.
I'll have to check out "Dan in Real Life", but Meet the Robinsons is a favorite around here, too....great show!
ReplyDeleteWe don't ever go to movies for the same reasons that you are worried about. I do not want to spend a bunch of money on a movie that has crud in it. I've never heard of Plugged in, but it's definitely worth checking out!
ReplyDeleteI took my kids to see Meet the Robinsons at a dollar theater in Idaho Falls last spring. I was expecting it to be kind of lame, but I was very pleasantly surprised! The kids and I both loved it. It reminded me a lot of Back to The Future, only for kids.
