Snoopy Come Home (1972)
A real tear jerker :)
I give this movie a six because although it is a favorite, it obviously isn't a masterpiece, but the music is great and it's a must see if you are a Peanuts fan.
I think I saw this movie for the first time when I was about 4 or 5. My slightly older sister and I were at my grandma's house. It starts out with the great "At the beach" number and my sister and I would get all excited, then, "NO dogs allowed!" would come shouting out of the TV and It would scare me. So the movie goes on and they go to the library and snoopy picks out this "funny bunnies" book and starts laughing. My sister and I still go crazy over that part. Then after Snoopy has run away, Charlie Brown does this monologue and sings a song. My sister who is 23 still gets teary eyed when she hears it. So when the local video rental place went out of business, we saw this long lost favorite and bought it immediately.
Secondhand Lions (2003)
A great movie to watch with Grandpa
I found this movie absolutely delightful and I could relate. I spent a few years out of the country and really didn't see many movies. When I returned, I asked my family what I had missed. This was number 3 on their list. Now I think everybody has got a relative, grandfather, uncle, cousin, etc., that is one of those crazy rough and tumble guys that can tell one whopper of a story. My grandpa is just such a person. When I watched it with my grandparents my grandpa didn't get it, but my grandma thought it was hilarious. So, Robert Duvall and Micheal Caine live up to their reputations as phenomenal actors and nail their parts. Haley Joel Osmeth is such a weenier. I guess that is what he is supposed to be though. Anyway, it is definitely worth seeing, probably worth owning.
The Brave Frog (1989)
Horrible, awful, I regret seeing this. Don't let your children watch this trash.
I saw this movie when my 5 year old sister pulled it of the video rental store shelf at random. Big mistake! No plot, nothing slightly entertaining. I remember finding it quite vulgar. The sound effects were so awful. The frog's rib-bit was more like gargling gagging noise. It sucked it sucked it sucked. Since I am probably one of very few people that actually knows this pathetic excuse of a movie exists, I feel obligated to prevent anyone from sharing in the suffering. This was a dumb movie. This movie was horrible. This movie was not worth seeing ever and anyone who sees it should have their eyes gouged out and never permitted to see the movie again. I guess I need one more line in this comment.
