Disclaimer: This is not a scooter post, though there were a couple of motorcycles in the movie.
I went with my family to see Bedtime Stories, starring Adam Sandler, this evening. The movie can be summed up in one word:
Hilarious.
It's a family friendly tale of a goofy guy who's life kinda stinks, who suddenly is asked by his sister to watch his niece and nephew for a week. During that time, he tells them some bedtime stories, which they add to, and their additions come true later on.
It's cute, funny, and not full of all the garbage that Hollywood seems to put in every single movie that hits the big screen. Sure, there's a little potty humor, some kissing, and a few scenes of women in bikinis, but nothing that would be inappropriate for children. After all, kids hear worse humor from Spongebob on TV, they see their parents kiss (or teens in the mall, unfortunately...gross), and they see women in bikinis at the town pool (some of whom should have left the two piece at the store).
All in all, it's a clean, family friendly film that you can take your kids to without turning red every two minutes or having to remind them "don't you dare say that word" just as often. Plus, it has a cross-eyed guinea pig...what more can you ask for?

Hmmmm. This one's going to take a little more persuasion. I detest Adam Sandler's idiotic behavior in many of his older movies and it's going to take a long time till I give him the opportunity to prove that he's moved beyond that. Nevertheless, when a regular guy like Paul recommends a movie, it's hard to say I'll never watch it. Maybe...
