Good movies this Christmas

I just saw both The Tale of Despereaux and The Day the Earth Stood Still yesterday, and they are both on my recommendation list. The Tale of Despereaux is mainly about a mouse who isn't afraid of much of anything, there are also a few smaller stories that are linked together in the end. There was a lot of good talent that went into the film, and it was very well done.

The Day the Earth Stood Still is another spectacular looking science fiction movie. Lots of neat special effects, and there was a pretty good story to it. As well, if you want to see John Cleese in a serious role, here you go. He usually plays funny roles, for example he was in Rat Race, Shrek 2, and Die Another Day. So if you want a good disaster movie, here you go.

As well, Traitor has been released on DVD. As well, if anyone cares, The House Bunny is also out. There are a bunch of movies that are arriving on DVD and Blu Ray right before the holidays and after. Both Death Race and Burn After Reading are coming out before the Holidays. Afterwards, we get a bunch like Eagle Eye and Ghost Town.

Less than a week till Christmas, hopefully everyone has plans, it is a great time to be together as a family.
