How the West was Fun

Recently I discussed the movie "The Challenge" in which Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen were the stars. That was a later movie filmed by the girls in which they were older and more mature. Another one of their movies that is a favorite in my family is "How the West was Fun".

Recently my children and I watched "The Challenge". We are great fans of the Olsen twins and have several of their movies. "The Challenge" was filmed when the girls were older and is based on a television reality show.

I was pleasantly surprised to turn on the television and find that "Where the Red Fern Grows" was about to begin. It had been several years since I had watched the movie or read the book. The G rated Doty-Dayton Productions movie was released in 1974 based on the novel by Wilson Rawls.

Made after the tradition of "March of the Penguins," the new movie "Arctic Tale" is a documentary about life in the wild. We begin our story with the birth of Nanu, a polar bear cub, and her little brother.

Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)

At last, a family movie that we truly can all enjoy, from my husband down to my toddler. "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" had something in it for each of us. Mr. Magorium (Dustin Hoffman) is a very old man, and I don't just mean elderly.

High School Musical (2006)

Ever since "High School Musical" debuted on the Disney Channel in 2006, it seems everyone with a preteen or who is a preteen is talking about it. I decided to watch it and see what all the hype was about, especially after seeing Monique Coleman on "Dancing with the Stars" a couple of seasons ago.

Funny Girl (1968)

"Funny Girl" was Barbra Streisand's first film, but you would never guess it. She performs in this movie as though she'd done it a thousand times. Every line, every song, is perfect.

The Cheetah Girls (2003)

Sabrina Bryan was my favorite competitor in this last season of "Dancing with the Stars." I knew she was a Cheetah Girl, but to be honest, all I really knew was that the Cheetah Girls were some kind of girl group.

Support Your Local Sheriff! (1969)

I'm not much one for westerns, although I'm trying to broaden my horizons. I didn't get a traditional western out of "Support Your Local Sheriff!" - instead I got a slapstick spoof, and I loved every minute of it.
