This entire series is lots of fun, and it provides some nice twists to the familiar fairy tale characters. Aimed at kids, any adult will enjoy it.

Moving and heartwarming
Find this one on hulu. A very interesting, enjoyable story about a young girl dealing with her life in a very unique way. The story unfolds very well and the ending is very moving. The special effects in this movie are really good and the young actress did a great job. This is a good family movie you can see with the kids. Really worth a watch, but be prepared(some of you) for tears.

This Netflix original action comedy stars the comedic trio from "Workaholics". The cinematography was good. The acting and storyline was pretty much what you'd expect from this group. There is some sexual and drug use content and a few gross violence scenes so this one really isn't for kids. If you're into "weird and goofy" comedies you'll enjoy this one. There are quite a few familiar comedic faces, as well. I'd say it's worth a watch if you're REALLY bored.

Honestly, who does not love this book. I, sadly, didn't even know about this book until I was in high school but I immediately went out and bought it for my daughter when I first learned I was pregnant. I have since carried on traditional and each of my kids have their own copy.
This book is an appropriate gift for baby showers, graduations, "milestone" birthdays, etc. And if you haven't read it yet then what are you waiting for?

This turned out to be one heck of a thriller. Netflix did it again. Very dark and intense tale that takes place in Alaska. Reading the description barely touches the surface of the movies depth. The story played out great and the acting was very good. The imagery and cinematography were very well done. It's a fairly violent movie so may not be for kids. I'd watch it first and decide for yourselves though, parents. REALLY worth a watch though.

Wow
What a surprisingly fantastic movie. The cast performed great and the cinematography was beautifully done. The story was unique and twisted and captivating. The "backtracking " sequences were masterful. So many twists and turns(some expected, most not) that kept my attention throughout the entire film. While it had some disturbing visuals and somewhat grotesque scenes this horror film was definitely more psychological than anything. Quite the revenge story! Be warned, this one isn't for kids! REALLY worth a watch!!

A Disney game that's actually well done
I love the theme of this game as I have always been a Disney fan.
I bought the expansion the moment I saw it.
If you like Disney, you'll like this game, but be warned it's a bit heavier than you might expect, probably too difficult for most kids.
