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.

Rango
You either like this movie or you hate it. I really like it, but I'm a fan of the unusual antics of Johnny Depp.

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 II
Warning for violence. Not as good as the first.
I can remember watching this movie with our oldest son and parlaying our trip to China to adopt our daughter. I told him we have to go and rescue her.

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.

The Lego Movie
This movie has ingredients for young and old. It's one the kids will want to watch over and over. (If you don't like a dry kind of humor than I don't think you'll like it.)

Shrek
Yes, this is a funny movie. Kinda reminds me of myself, "How can I get rid of all these children so I can have my home back?"--wink, wink.

How to Train Your Dragon 2
This is a good film even though it gets lost in my memory. There is a twist regarding the parents of the protagonist so if a child has lost a parent, it could open wounds.

How to Train Your Dragon
This is surprisingly good. Good build of character. Good development of relationships. Satisfying ending.

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.

Kung Fu Panda
I should give a warning of violence. It is Kung Fu. There's a lot of fighting which, if imitated, can cause injury. So as your family watches the movie, pray your kids have wisdom to act like good boys and girls.
