the reason we GO TO the movies - is not really for the kids. they are small, and just as happy in front of a dvd. so we pay the outrageous movie prices for movies that us adults can enjoy too.
planet 51 was dull. the kids liked it ok. they weren't overly animated about the jokes like they were with monsters v aliens or Up - but they seemed engaged. on the other hand, i think i dozed off 6 times.
