Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore on DVD

Well the secret agents of the canine and feline world are at it again. This time with a new crew fighting the dastardly aspirations of a hairless cat named Kitty Galore (voiced by Bette Midler). Kitty Galore has her eye on revenge. Revenge against dogs and humans.

This film is a cute if slightly trite send-up of James Bond films, including a gorgeous opening title sequence. For the full review of this mish-mash of classic spy films, go here. Both children enjoyed the film and it maintained the attention of the 3 year old. There was no offensive language and little innuendo. Not so much for the adults so I give it a "Press Play".

Despicable Me on DVD

An old school Adams Family style villain. Adorable yellow minions. Three orphaned girls. A recipe for world domination. Mix them together and what do you get? One terrific film.

"Despicable Me" is one of those rare films that is both funny and sweet. It has humor for the adults without ever becoming inappropriate for children. I simply loved it. Both children enjoyed it. My mother enjoyed it. In short, it was enjoyed by all. For the full review, go here.

It is a definite "Stay Up". We loved this film enough to pay extra for the Blu-Ray pack. Also, amongst the special features are three hilarious short films. So that's bonus for "staying up".

Shrek Forever After on DVD

Shrek Forever After is nothing new -- think "Shrek" meets "A Wonderful Life" with a little bit of "Braveheart" thrown in. Yet it is sweetly played out. To see my full review, go here. Both of my children enjoyed it and so did my husband and I. Another nice surprise... unlike other Shrek episodes, there was no extended over-the-top inappropriate innuendo. I found it appropriate for both my three year-old and my six year-old.
