MOVIE REVIEW: UP
Up"So often we try to measure our lives in the great things that we have accomplished... and get discouraged because of that very fact."

This observation on life is one of the themes found in the movie Up, the latest from Disney/Pixar. Lessons on promises, dreams, thankfulness, and disappointment abound. More themes and teaching tools can be found in Kidology's movie review!

MOVIE REVIEW: NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM 2
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian"This is a great family movie. Buy some popcorn, sit back and enjoy!" remarks Kidology CP Team member Nancy Keith in her movie review of Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.

"The cast of characters is enormous. There is everyone from Amelia Earhart, Teddy Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, General Custer, and Albert Einstein. Portraying them is enormous talent from Robin Williams and Amy Adams to Hank Azaria and Owen Wilson."

As with all Kidology movie reviews, we provide children's ministry-oriented teaching tools such as an overview, areas of concern, teachable themes with scripture, and discussion questions.
