Has anyone else seen "Paul Blart, Mall Cop"? I saw it yesterday. I expected it to stink, but I love Kevin James and didn't want to miss something with him in it. I thought it'd probably be cheaper than buying the DVD later.

I was surprised! Kevin James was, as when I've always seen him, good. My husband and I were laughing all thru it. (Kevin James co-wrote it, which is a good sign.)

And there was no sex in it, and I don't remember any swearing. I so hate that, when your kids are small and they wanna see a movie but they gotta hear words we don't use at home so the movie can get a PG-13 rating and not a G that they think no one would want to see.

It was no 'Gone with the Wind', but who wants that out of Kevin James? It was very entertaining!

I'm going to have to catch that one - have been thinking about it. Last weekend I saw Nicolas Cage's Knowing and did not care for it. The best movie I have seen in months, including The Reader, Milk, Slumdog, and Benjamin Button, is Mickey Rourke's The Wrestler. Yes, it's gritty and seedy, but will break your heart. I've already got a copy of the DVD I was so impressed.

Augusta, I so agree! This was a cute movie, and one I was happy to let my 11-year-old son see. And you're right, no sex. And the swear words were minimal. It's harder and harder to find kid-appropriate movies these days.

I was thinking about seeing "Knowing". It looked interesting from the commercials. Maybe now I'll wait till I can rent it . Thanks for the opinions on the movies, kssunflower.

Cheryl, that was the first movie I can remember in years seeing at the movies that I could comfortably take my kids to. (Except for like "The Grinch", and movies targeted for small children.)

I wish movies would go back to (and they closed the door ... Fade out.)
