Movies

I've seen more movies than normal this summer.

Last night the sushi family watched Underdog. It was cute. Not the greatest movie ever, but it was entertaining and fairly clean. ** 1/2

Ratatouille. The best movie I've seen so far. Good clean fun, and it was mostly set in a kitchen. *****

Transformers. Good but it could have been and probably should have been more family friendly. I didn't realize it was a PG 13 movie and I brought along the kids. That was a mistake. I'm probably not the only parent to do this. (I did enjoy the show when I didn't feel like covering my kids eyes though) ***

Harry Potter OOTP: Probably the best Harry Potter film to date. (From a fan of the books point of view) It may have been harder to follow if you hadn't read the books. ****

Simpsons: Gag after gag after gag produce laugh after laugh after laugh. It was better than I was expecting. ***1/2

I still would like to see "No reservations" and "Rush Hour 3".

Until this past weekend I hadn't seen a movie in a theater in over 7 years. It took the Simpsons to break that drought.

7 years? wow. I can't say that I blame you. We could have bought a DVD or two for the same as it was to take the family to underdog or tranformers.

Mel - Hairspray looks entertaining. I think I want to watch the old one before I watch the new one. I'm weird that way. You'll have to let me know how Stardust is. I think it looks like an interesting premise but I'd like to hear if they pull it off well.
