Bill's Comments

We heard good things about this movie being entertaining for both young and old, so we went to see it. It was okay and I enjoyed it to a point, but I can't say that you will miss much if you don't see it. However, if you have grandkids that you would like to take to a movie and still see something that you can watch, too, then this is a good choice.
