The Next Karate Kid
Trying to recapture the hart gripping action of the original and they didn't quite succeed.

The Next Karate Kid
The Karate Kid, Part II
Not much of a comedy, not much of a drama. Plot seems like it needed help so they threw a storm into the mix.

The Karate Kid: Part II
The Karate Kid
This movie lets you root for the underdog. It has bullying, racism, poor vs good training, a love story that crosses economic boundaries, and a lot more stuff.

The Lone Ranger
This is one of those movies that doesn't have a target audience so it kinda misses with the kids and with the adults. It's a strange reboot of a western story with a powerful ending.

The Lone Ranger (2013)
Sister Act
I put a warning on this for some violence and the theme of gangsters and call girls, but those themes are a small part of the overall story. It's cute and the kids will love it, at least mine do.

National Treasure
A good movie to encourage history lessons, maybe. At any rate, an interesting way the movie unfolds like a treasure hunt.

Mission: Impossible
The movie that started it all. If you watched the TV series as a kid this movie reaches back and uses bits and pieces so the 'older' crowd will recall the past excitement with the franchise. There is a lot of interesting action that…
The Lego Batman Movie
Ends well. It has a great message about family, selfless-ness vs selfishness and wraps up very well.

Cars 3
This episode recaptures some of the intrigue of the first movie, but misses on the action.

Cars 2
This kinda becomes a movie that adults and track with more than the children, as it's a template from James Bond (and what child has seen a James Bond). But it misses the mark for adults too. It's really a story of Tow-mater and his…
Cars
A good story. It also teaches that our elders just might have wisdom we should listen to, even though they are old.

Night at the Museum
I stayed away from this movie for a long time thinking it was a horror type movie. I was pleasantly surprised to laugh out loud at the story. If I had realized Dick Van Dike, and Mikey Rooney were in it, I would have known better.

The Amazing Panda Adventure
This is a great movie if you've just adopted a Chinese child. If you've watched this movie before traveling to China, you think "oh that's just low budget stuff that wouldn't happen in reality." Then you see a lot of the same stuff in…
Maleficent
I was pleasently surprised by the story, but again there is magic used which falls into the category Scripture warns us to avoid. (I don't think that means for us to avoid the movie but familiarity unfortunately opens kids up to avaliability…
Spider-Man
As a story about the beginnings of Spiderman, I really like this movie. I don't remember if there is anything bad outside of his uncle being shot (following the comic-book storyline).

I put a warning on this movie because it's very violent and has some sensual forms.
