College Road Trip

Next up, a movie about a girl who is looking at colleges and has a very overprotective father. I'm sure I won't be the same way when the kid goes to college..... OK maybe I'm lying. 

The movie was good and entertaining overall. Sometimes that is all you need. 

Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales

Next up is a few episode shorts from Pixar, mostly about Mater. If you really like Cars and love Mater, then these shorts are for you. If you cannot stand Mater and the annoying things he says and does, then skip it. 

It keeps the kid entertained but I'm OK not seeing it again. I'm more excited for Cars 3. 

Camp Rock

Moving along with another DCOM, we watched Camp Rock. This was huge when I was in college (as were the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato) but I had never seen it before now. I think it was because I was anti-Jonas Brothers at the time. I figured they were just brunette Hansons or something. Anyway... 

It isn't my favorite, but it was alright. The kid liked the songs and the overall story was cute. Apparently it was such a big hit at the time they released a sequel... so on to that one! 

Bolt

This movie came out when I wasn't concerned too much about watching new Disney movies. I was a senior in college and we were all into the retro/nostalgic things so we watched old Disney movies from the 90's instead. That being said, I have seen Bolt before and liked it enough - I thought it was cute. It was even better watching it with a 6 year old son, though. Hilarious.  

Beverly Hills Chihuahua

We watched a cute movie about a stuck-up rich dog who is quite pampered. She got kidnapped in Mexico and is saved by another dog who was not so pampered. It was a funny movie and the kid loved it. He liked that there was some Spanish in this movie. 

Bedtime Stories

This week we watched Bedtime Stories. I have to say this is one of my favorite Adam Sandler movies after 2000. It's cute. He tells the kids stories and finds out that the part of the story the kids tell comes true the next day. 

The kid has been walking around since we watched this movie saying "for freeeeee?". Hilarious.
