I somehow managed to see quite a few movies in January and they were all very good.
First my girlfriend Janet and I took our kids to see Charlotte's Web. Yes, Jesse decided to go and he even sat through the whole thing!! It was a little touch and go the last few minutes but we made it!

Then my sister-in-law Cindy and I saw The Holiday...great chick flick! Jude Law is really quite captivating...never really noticed before...how have I missed that?

Then Emily and I went to see Arthur and the Invisibles. I had no expectations going in...all I knew was that the critics didn't really care for it (which doesn't usually mean too much). I had no idea there were so many celebrities involved with this...Madonna, Emilio Estevez, Robert DeNiro, David Bowie. It turned out to be very entertaining and it was perfect for Emily's age.

This past Saturday Cindy and I saw Catch and Release with Jennifer Garner...another great chick flick! All through the movie though it was driving me crazy..where had I seen the main male character before?? I finally had to google his name, Timothy Olyphant, I just couldn't place him. Turns out he's the guy who played one of the main characters in one of my favourite shows (which noone else I know has ever watched!), Deadwood!! Let's just say he looks a lot different when he's not in his wild west sheriff's gear. You will enjoy him in this movie...even more if you saw him in Deadwood and realized ahead of time who he was.

The previous weekend Emily and I saw Night At The Museum. I was afraid it was going to be scary for her but a few people had seen it and said it would be fine. We both enjoyed it...Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson crack me up!!!

If you're ever wondering about a kid's movie...what it's about, what age group it's best for...I have a website I like to refer to. It's www.nickjr.com. Then you go to the Parenting section and then Flicks for Kids. Obviously you still have to use your own judgment..only you know what your kids can handle but I've found it to be quite helpful before.

Can't wait for February and March movies, saw some interesting trailers recently (I love watching trailers!). Happy viewing!!
