Christmas Cupid


Another 25 Days of Christmas movie! This one has some great stars in it. It is another take on A Christmas Carol. 


I liked this Christmas movie, yet another re-telling of A Christmas Carol. I liked the cast and I was happy to see a woman in the typical scrooge role. Loving Christmas in the Summer!

Christmas Caper



This next movie is another one from the ABC Family 25 Days of Christmas. It's about a woman who is double-crossed after stealing a diamond and has to spend Christmas with her sister's family in their hometown. 


There are certainly much better Christmas movies to watch. But if you are one of those people who keeps anything holiday related on the TV all Christmas season while you are baking cookies then you may as well add this to your super long list.

Christmas Bounty


The next movie comes to us from ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas. Brace yourself for New Jersey. (I'm from PA) 


I was a little annoyed at the end because I liked the other guy that she did not pick but whatever. Christmas in August! I believe the next movie is also Christmas related! In other news, 4 months til Christmas Eve- Ahh!

Chimpanzee


I am loving the DisneyNature films. This one is called Chimpanzee.


The story was very good - you cheered for the little chimpanzee and his new life. There were really beautiful slow motion close-ups. I just couldn't believe chimpanzees eat monkeys! I didn't know that before but I have been learning a lot with these documentaries.

Child Star: The Shirley Temple Story


This TV movie was on ABC and it is about Shirley Temple and her career in Hollywood.


I enjoyed this movie. I think the actress does a pretty good job portraying Shirley Temple and I love when I can recognize the scenes she is doing from the original movies.

Child of Glass


Next up is a random movie from the 70's called Child of Glass. I believe it was a TV movie. 



This one was not my favorite. It was hard to follow and pretty random.

Chicken Little


The next movie we watched together and it was an animated movie I never saw before! This movie came out during my rebellious teenage years. I'm glad I finally took the time to watch it because it was so funny.


I wasn't sure what to expect, other than the sky falling. This movie made me laugh. Watch it!

Cheetah


There are so many domesticated cats in Disney's World! The next movie is about a cheetah in Africa named Duma that lived with some American scientists and their kids. 


The beginning reminded me a lot of A Far Off Place, with the setting in Africa and a couple of American kids living there temporarily and there were poachers. But this one isn't nearly as scary. The kids set their cheetah free to be wild and hunt but it is kidnapped to be raced against greyhounds. The kids go on an adventure to save the cheetah.

Chasing Christmas


Chasing Christmas was an ABC Family TV Movie. It is a retelling of the story A Christmas Carol. This one has a time travel twist. 


I think they could have told the story a bit better. Maybe I just wasn't in the Christmas Spirit when I watched it!
