loved it

What a great, inspiring movie. The fact that it is a true story makes it even better. Sandra Bullock does a great job. I read an interview with the real Tuhys and they said their helping Michael wasn't the first kid they reached out to, just the only one who had a book written about him.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I read the reviews and knew what to expect. I liked this movie a lot. I knew the Wild Things were symbolic of Max's home life and looked for ways that was portrayed. I loved the wild thing characters and the funny things they said. My husband and I discussed this movie through dinner afterwards. Someone said that this movie is especially enjoyed by 20-30 year olds who remember the book. I agree. Also like the sound track. The only thing I didn't like was the shaky camera.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This was not what I expected. The tone of the movie was just too dark, ugly, gross and disgusting.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Even if you don't have your own little "American Girl" to take to this movie--go anyway--even just to see Joan Cusack! She's a riot.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

darker than Lion Witch and Wardrobe

I have not read the Narnia books and am not a big fan of fantasy movies. I went with someone who is. I did enjoy this movie though. It is more violent and darker than the Lion Witch and Wardrobe.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie was very entertaining. The futuristic stuff seem plausible and the humor was a delight. It still had the "super hero" element but that wasn't all there was as in some movies.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This was an entertaining and cute movie. I would recommend it for all families. There aren't any very scary parts for the youngest child. Jody Foster is great as usual as is Abigail Breslin.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
