Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas (1977)

Heartwarming and fun
I have watched this so many times. It one of my favorite Christmas stories directed by Jim Henson.

When a poor otter family sees the opportunity of a town talent show to make some much needed cash, they seize on the opportunity.

The songs and morals in this short TV movie make this great fun for the whole family.

The songs from Paul Williams will keep you humming.

Jesper
It wouldn't normally be my cup of tea but I liked it alot it's heartwarming tale about the origins of santa Claus told thru the eyes of the town postman jesper. Jesper who stats as a bitbof a egostst self absorbed prince who only cares about number one but takes the kindness of the town's children and Klaus for him to see the error of his ways. Anyway totally recommend this movie to anyone

Wonderful, heartwarming movie
Just finished watching and had to write a review. This was so beautifully done. It was about the man who interviewed Mr.Rodgers for a magazine article and the lessons he learned from him. Tom Hanks was amazing as Mr. Rodgers. It also made me remember my childhood and the things I loved about Mr.Rodgers. I had a tough time as a kid, i had seizures and kids made fun of me. I remember Mr. Rodgers having children on the show with disabilities and it made me not feel alone. I really loved this movie. It had a good lesson to it too.

Heartbreaking and Heartwarming
I picked up this book, because I loved The Fault in our Stars. I thought this would be similar and decided to give it a try. Over all the two books were very different from each other. Stella has a lot going on, and a need to be in control of her life. Her backstory is great, and all of the characters were equally well thought out. This was a great read, and I'm looking forward to the movie.

Sweet and heartwarming
I think I am in love with Saoirse Ronan. She played this character with such charm and grace I was rooting for her almost immediately.

After a young Irish girl leaves her family to come to the US, she meets a young man who falls for her. Tragedy strikes back at home and the young woman has to make some difficult choices and decide what makes her happy.

Who says you need lots of characters, a complicated story and/or CGI characters to make a movie great? This movie has none of those things yet I thought it was very satisfying. I was hoping she would decide her life in a certain way and was happy when she did.

The movie looked marvelous and the acting was all great!

The Incredibles (2004) might just be the best superhero movie of all time. #Review
There are very few films as perfect as “The Incredibles”. Not only does it work flawlessly as one of the finest ever examples of a superhero movie, it also serves as an insightful deconstruction and analysis of the genre itself and still finds time to satirise the rise of entitled fan culture with a prescience that would be chilling if it weren’t so spectacularly on the money. Did I mention it’s terrific fun, too? Laugh out loud hilarious, clever, heartwarming and exquisitely structured, it’s one of my two all-time favourite screenplays. In case you haven’t twigged yet, I’m quite a fan...

Fighting with My Family (2019)
Fighting with My Family (2019)
2019 | Biography, Comedy, Drama
Honestly, I was going to watch this film regardless because it has Jack Lowden in it, and I'll watch anything with him in it.
This is very much a movie made for wrestling buffs, and luckily, I have a cousin that's been obsessed with it, so I've had exposure. And, while that may be the target demographic, it is equally accessible to the non-wrestling audience. It's very much a story about family, and the dynamic between the actors made it completely believable. It was really heartwarming and funny, and even I, with my little black and un-beating heart, got choked up at times.

Predictable
Very Basic, but still Enjoyable Enough
You know, I actually enjoyed this film. Yes it’s predictable and doesn’t do anything that hasn’t been done before. AND it feels like a typical Liam Neeson film. Not to mention the one dimensional bad guys.

But I can’t help but love Liam Neeson. And I’m a sucker for those “older man helps kid” storylines. I find the film heartwarming and it somehow struck a cord with me. Plus it wasn’t too long so it didn’t feel like it dragged on. Not an amazing movie by any means, but I found myself fairly engaged.

Fight For What You Love The Most
Remember The Titans- is a excellent movie. Its powerful, moving, heartwarming, dramatic, family-moving, and based on a true story. Also it has a excellent cast. Both Denzel Washington and Will Patton are excellent. I didnt realize that Ryan Gosling was in this. He is so young in this. Anyways its a excellent football movie.

The plot: In Virginia, high school football is a way of life, an institution revered, each game celebrated more lavishly than Christmas, each playoff distinguished more grandly than any national holiday. And with such recognition, comes powerful emotions. In 1971 high school football was everything to the people of Alexandria. But when the local school board was forced to integrate an all black school with an all white school, the very foundation of football's great tradition was put to the test.

Its excellent.
