Kung Fu Panda 2

Jack Black is back as Po The Dragon Warrior whose mission in this second Kung Fu Panda is to save Kung Fu against the evil Lord Shen. In order to be successful he must first achieve the next level of his training and find inner peace. Once again the animation is superb and all the main characters return making this a great sequel enjoyable for the whole family.

The Princess and the Frog

This is the story of when hard-working waitress Tiana meets spoiled Prince Naveen (who has been turned into a frog) and their journey to break the voodoo spell that has been cast on him. Along the way they meet some wonderful new friends and of course get into all sorts of trouble. Disney does an amazing job with their first film to have an African-American star. The wonderful visual effects and amazing music along with a ton of comedy thrown in makes this movie a great family film that everyone will love.

Up

When Carl Fredricksen loses his wife he is still determined to finally do what he had always promised and make the trip to Paradise Falls, South America. Of course the method he uses to travel is a little unorthodox...he attaches a ton of balloons to his home and up they go. Unfortunately a local Wilderness Explorer is accidentally taken along for the ride. Disney/Pixar did another great job on this film and it is fun to watch for all ages...of course Russell and Doug truly make the movie.

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

All of your favorite characters are back in this latest Ice Age movie with the addition of a few new ones like Buck (Simon Pegg) and a female squirrel who joins the battle for the nut. Ellie and Manny are expecting a baby and so Sid and Diego are trying to find their place in the world. Along the way they come in contact with some dinosaurs and of course another fight for survival has begun. Fans of the other movies will also enjoy this one.

Monsters vs. Aliens

On the day of her wedding Susan (Reese Witherspoon) is hit by a meteor and all of a sudden she grows into a huge monster with amazing strength. When she is locked away with other monsters by the government all she wants is to go home. When Earth is attacked by an alien robot the monsters are called upon to defeat it and save the planet. This is a very cute movie that is fun for the whole family.

Igor

In the dark and gloomy town of Malaria there are two types of people the Scientists who create amazing inventions and their worthless assistant's the Igor's. For one Igor that is not enough because he knows that he should be a Scientist. When he sets out to create a wonderful new creature and succeeds he is determined to change the Igor's place in the world. I really didn't like this movie and definitely do not consider it a film for children.

Wall-E

When trash starts to take over the world the humans are sent to outer-space with the promise that robots will clean it up so that they can return. Eventually the only robot left working to get rid of the trash is Wall-E, a lonely robot who doesn't realize he is working on a hopeless cause. One day a small space-ship lands and EVE arrives, a newer robot whose mission is to see if she can find any proof of sustainable life. A very cute movie that will be enjoyed by the whole family.

Kung Fu Panda

Jack Black is the voice of Po, a clumsy panda bear obsessed with Kung Fu. When he goes to watch the ceremony of the choosing of the Dragon Warrior and accidentally lands in the middle of it he is surprised to find he is the chosen one. Master Shifu reluctantly begins his training so that he can battle the evil Tai Lung. This movie is hilarious and great for all ages. I think it is one of the best animated movies since Cars.

Enchanted

In the fairy tale world of Andalasia Giselle (Amy Adams) has finally found her prince, but on the day she is to wed him his evil step-mother pushes her into a well that magically transports her to the real world. In this strange new place (New York City) she comes across a man and his daughter who are nice enough to give her a place to stay while she waits for Prince Edward to find her. This was a really cute and funny movie that I think the adults enjoy as much as the children do. A must see!

Bee Movie

The movie starts out with the graduation of Barry Benson (Jerry Seinfeld) who quickly realizes that now he is doomed to work in the honey industry for the rest of his life. Realizing he wants more of a choice in his life he leaves the hive to see what is on the outside. He makes friends with a human florist and on one of their outings realizes that the humans eat the honey that they work so hard to make. He sets out to sue the humans for stealing their work. Not the best animated movie, but I'm sure kids will still enjoy watching it.

Surf's Up

This is the story of Cody Maverick, a penguin from Antarctica whose dream is to win a big surfing contest. He gets his chance when a scout finds him and takes him to compete. Of course when he gets there things don't go as smoothly as he hopes, but with the help of an old surfer he finds his way. I found this cute, but I think the adults will enjoy it more than the kids will.

Meet The Robinsons

This movie is about Lewis, a 12-year old orphan who desperately wants two things, to get adopted and to make one of his inventions work. One day Wilbur Robinson shows up to warn Lewis about an evil villain (Bowler Hat Guy) that is from the future. This starts their journey to the future where you meet the rest of the odd Robinson family. Another cute Disney movie that the whole family will enjoy.

Ratatouille

In this animated movie a clumsy kitchen boy and an amazing rat team up to become the next great chef. Remy, a rat that has an amazing cooking ability knows he could never cook in a restaurant kitchen as himself so he uses Alfredo to disguise who is doing the actual creating. I thought this movie was really cute. I am a fan of the new Pixar movies and find them very creative and enjoyable.
