Bedtime Stories: I thought this was a fun movie for kids. Rod fell asleep, I stayed awake (I sleep in Harry Potter movies). Alex enjoyed it. Some predictable characters that show up in all of Adam Sandler's movies.
Valkyrie: Rod read about the happenings during the WWII in Germany and told me that it was very accurate in this movie. Alex had a lot of questions after the movie so be prepared if you are taking your kids to it. Better find out the answers, too. The fake eye gives a nice touch to the movie.
Yes Man: DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS UNDER 15 TO THIS MOVIE! Alex sat there with his eyes and ears plugged while Rod and I sat there uncomfortably. Should have walked out, but didn't.
No more pop corn for us. The oil gets sickening after 2 movies.
Next up: Marley & Me

Great reviews.
I'd heard good things about Valkerie--maybe I'll give it a shot even though I don't like Tom Cruise.
I hadn't heard of the Jim Carrey one yet. Good to be forewarned!
Add Seven Pounds to the list! I really liked Valkerie as well!
I want to see both of the first ones, and DID want to see Yes Man, but I think you just swayed me the other way.
I really want to take my kids to see Marley and Me as well as Bedtime Stories. I'm a huge Adam Sandler fan though.
Let me know if you see "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." I want to see it, but want to hear what someone thinks first. Will you be my movie critic?;)
