Mrs. Doubtfire
Directed By: Chris Columbus Starring: Robin Williams, Sally Field, Lisa Jakub, Matthew Lawrence, Mara Wilson, Pierce Brosnan, and Harvey Fierstein
"They should have a little disclaimer that says ‘Do Not Operate Heavy Machinery While Watching This Show’. Incredible. This guy used to put me to sleep when I was a kid. Amazing. He has the warmth of a snow pea. He makes Mister Rogers look like Mick Jagger." -Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams)

Grown Ups
Directed By: Dennis Dugan
Starring: Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, David Spade, Salma Hayek, Maria Bello, and Maya Rudolph

The Kids Are All Right
Directed By: Lisa Cholodenko
Starring: Annette Bening, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Mia Wasikowska, Josh Hutcherson, and Yaya DaCosta
Family dramas are a dime a dozen. You don't have to look too long and hard to find a flick that's got some family values. You come into these flicks knowing what to expect, and you generally get it. A little creativity can go a long way in a family flick. That's why I was very curious about Lisa Cholodenko'sThe Kids Are All Right. Wit... Continue reading ...
