This sequel to the first Narnia movie was even better than "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" according to my 10 year old son. The intriguing story of the Pevensie sibling's long-awaited return ...

DVD: The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
I rate this titleonand give itWow! Better than the first one!

DVD: Firehouse Dog
I rate this titleonand give itSurprisingly nice
Went to the movies with my 2 kids (9 and 7) to see The Last Mimzy, which wasn't playing anymore. I asked at the ticket counter if they had information about this movie, like why it was rated PG, and ...

DVD: Eragon
I rate this titleonand give itNot as bad as critics say..
Although my 9-year-old son has read both Eragon and Eldest and definitely found those better than the film, I wouldn't discount the movie altogether, and neither would he. I took him and 6 friends ...

DVD: Kinsey
I rate this titleiffyand give itNot a kids movie at all - but great work
The common sense review of this is very good. It points out the extremely good values that end up getting passed along in this movie. The idea of being "normal" or not and who is to tell who is or ...

DVD: Charlotte's Web (2006)
I rate this titleonand give itAmazing special effects with a heart
I saw this movie with my kids 6 and 9, both of you got choked up, but loved it. As someone who loved the animated version with Paul Lynde as Templeton, I thought this was a wonderful homage to both ...

DVD: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
I rate this titleonand give itIntriguing for kids into martial arts
I watched this movie with my 9 year old son who is a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. He thought it was one of the best action films he's ever seen (which is not a lot). I think it's great that the main ...

DVD: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)
I rate this titleonand give itA very different remake
Although my kids liked this one better, I'm still a fan of the Gene Wilder version. (My kids 5 and 7, site the songs and the scenes of Oompa Loompa land as the cooler parts. Johnny Depp's Willy Wonka ...

Book: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
I rate this titleonand give itmore dark and emotional than others in the series
This was an exceptional read for my husband and I (and we're reading it to our 7 year old). I have to say that it was so much sadder than the others and the reality of Harry's future fate is thrown ...

DVD: The Polar Express
I rate this titleonand give itExcellent family film for the holidays!
I saw this film with my 4.5 and 7 year old kids. I was nervous at first because of the talk of believing in Santa Claus or not, but in the end the story is about believing in the spirit of ...

DVD: Spy Kids
I rate this titleonand give itFull of neat gadgets!
This was a fun movie for kids to see. The only negative to me was the use of "Shitake mushrooms" as a tease for kids almost swearing. I thought that was unnecessary and seemed to be way the movie ...

DVD: Ella Enchanted
I rate this titleonand give itFunny and entertaining
I saw this movie in the theatre with my two kids - 6 and 4 - about 4 months ago. They thought it was fun, and had a great lesson about friendship and standing up for yourself. However, even now, my ...
