I'm not much on reviews of anything, but I've actually watched a few movies in the last week...more than I've seen in several months actually!
After Mrs. Haid's mentioning of Julie and Julia, I decided I'd better watch it. It was one that I wanted to see in the theater as well, but, as life goes with two young children, I didn't make it. I actually really enjoyed the movie! It wasn't filmed the way I expected it to be, but I thought it was very easy to follow and I enjoyed the plot. It definitely made me glad that I am not obsessed with food or cooking...I could NOT do some of the things I saw them doing on there. Gag. I don't care how good it may taste, the prep would not make it worth it to me. It did, however, wish that I had some sort of project to participate in for a year. Something to do every day, something to be accountable for (as if I don't have enough already...). So...I did some research and came up with something! Be looking for a post very soon!!!
Santa Buddies. We watched this as our family movie night on Thursday. It was awesome. A little over zealous for a kids movie about puppies? Maybe, but maybe not! We have all the other "Buddies" movies, and the kids do love all of their adventures. I was expecting about the same thing out of this one, but they far surpassed my expectations. The magic of Christmas must have gotten into them or something! The one thing that I appreciated more than anything about this movie was the Christian Christmas tid bits that were added in. Although it was about Santa Claus, there was also "God Bless", prayer time, and much, much more! A must see, I think. It will definitely become a Christmas movie tradition in our home!
The Blind Side. I can't say enough. This was WELL worth the trip to the theater. Although this movie does hit a little closer to home for me currently, I still believe that this is a story everyone should see! I was literally laughing and crying at the same time - several times!
