My kids loved this bird.. His voice was amazing.. his confidence was awesome and the trials he came across made it more realistic.. They loved the characters and how his friends helped him out. Very cute and sweet story. I am glad we got to review this one.

Farmer Brown has a labor problem when his cows go on strike. Imaginative and very funny for kids of all ages.

And remember - Duck was a neutral party.

A good typical early 90's action film. A group of terrorists take hostages at the local boarding school where the kids have some very important parents. It has some good action scenes and a well assembled cast. If you missed this before it's well worth a watch.

Meh.
I may be one of the few people on this Earth that wasn't a big fan of the greatest showman. I watched it and appreciated it, but it's not something that I will be reaching for to watch again. The kids seem to really like it though.

Tried watching it, got through the first 2-3 episodes and found it forgettable. I absolutely loved Super 8, so it's not that I didn't like it because it focuses on kids, but I think it just takes too long for anything to actually happen to catch my attention.
  
review to follow

but would just like to say ... once my kids have read thru this ... if they squish a chocolate pudding on a bullys backside ... or make a really big puke mess (that looks like the recipe inside this book) ... that it is not MY fault. okay???
  
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I think kids will get a kick out of this charming, welll-illustrated book. I have my doubts as to whether these animals are "gross" but it's still a fun read.

Good humor and a positive message. (0 more)
It was a very cute movie. It had very good humor for a kids movie, even if some was a little grown up.( "I call it 50 shades of yay"). It also had a positive message about not using violence in a conflict.

Not the greatest movie, but well worth watching with the children. The kids really enjoyed it, so I would suggest going into this one looking for a decent children's movie. If you expect more for the adults, you will be sorely disappointed. And yes, the accent was horrible.
