WALL-E Disney/Pixar
3 recommendations
"I love this movie, one of the few movies to actually make me cry great for children and my favorite Disney/Pixar movie to date."
Tootsie - 25th Anniversary Edition
1 recommendation
"I recently pulled this one out from the back of the cabinet, dusted it off and tossed it into the DVD for a moviefest night with my kids. God, I can't believe I had forgotten how great it is! The kids have requested it a few times since so it is definitely one of the flicks that retains its charm from one generation to the next."
Pete's Dragon
4 recommendations
"Remember this one? Let me jog your memory. It was a live action children's film featuring an animated dragon that only Pete could see. And Mickey Rooney was the boy's uncle or grandfather. Great kid's film. Do you think if this movie took place today Pete would be medicated? Probably."
The Iron Giant (1999)
1 recommendation
"Great visuals and a strong story line set in cold-war America keep me coming back to this fantastic fable that focuses on a young boy and his new robot friend. Get out the hankies because the whole family is apt to get misty eyed as the boy and the Iron Giant attempt to evade government agents who wish to destroy that which they don't understand. A powerful film with a pacifist message."
Ratatouille (Widescreen)
1 recommendation
"Ratatouille is a rare breed of children's film- one in which the grown-up jokes are actually intelligent. Remy's quest to become a gourmet chef is deliciously fun, funny and suitable for all palates. My daughter wanted to cook for days afterward."
Howl's Moving Castle
2 recommendations
"Miyazaki's characteristically glorious animation joined to a plot penned by one of the greats of children's fantasy- Diana Wynne Jones- equals one fabulous film. It's a great blend of magic, adventure and romance- and it's pretty much strictly PG (there's some violence). My daughter and I both enjoyed this film equally- which is pretty rare- and boys will like it, too. I didn't even mind watching ..."

"A movie about two young girls, Satsuke and her younger sister Mei, who move into a house in the country with their father to be closer to their hospitalized mother. Satsuke and Mei discover that the nearby forest is inhabited by magical creatures called Totoros. They soon befriend these Totoros, and have several magical adventures."
Comfort and Joy
1 recommendation
"This movie is great it's basically like the woman's version of Family Man. A professional business woman ends up in an accident and when she is helped by a stranger things are so different she ends up being a mom of two, married, and basically not so rich anymore. She starts to learn the real meaning of family, and life."
Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope
5 recommendations
"BEST MOVIE EVER!!!!! The mytho-poetic epic space opera for all ages, STAR WARS is a timeless classic. It hardly needs any introduction at this point but it is worth noting the scope and depth of George Lucas' vision. He created an entire universe and infused it w/an powerful sense of drama and titanic struggles between good and evil. Darth Vader is one of the most archetypal and evocative vill..."
