Elf!

This is really the funniest Christmas movie I have seen. It's about an elf that was raised by Santa and the other elves, but he is really a human. He starts to notice that he isn't fitting in so he has a talk with Santa, who then tell's him his dad is somewhere in New York City. He gets a job at mall and falls in love with another human, but he doesn't know how to express it because he has never been in love before. He does all kinds of crazy things that would seem normal in the North Pole, but not in New York. Spaghetti with syrup, and making toys out of furniture are a few of the crazy ideas he pulls out of his sack. Will he get the girl he loves, or will he make a fool of himself? Watch this Christmas movie with the whole family for lots of laughs and to get into the Christmas sprite.

White House Down

This movie is great. I'm not really into action movies but I loved how thrilling it was. I loved Channing Tatum in this movie, who wouldn't? Haha, I loved that it had a family theme, a love theme, and a action/thriller theme. It is about someone that applies for a job as a secret service agent for the president, but it isn't looking too hot for him. After the interview, he promised he would take his little girl on a tour of the white house. While they are on the tour, the white house is attacked. By who? You'll just have to watch and see! Regardless, the man who applied for the secret service job ends up protecting the president as well as trying to get back to his daughter.

The Intouchables

This movie is so inspiring. It is the story of a man that is disabled and has no feeling in his body from his neck down. He hires a man that is from the "opposite side of town". This man is big, African American, and has a history with drugs. Why would a rich man hire someone like this when he could get a man that has a college degree in this field? Because Driss doesn't give the man pity. This movie is set in France and the movie is all in French. It is a blending of romance and comedy, you will laugh and cry at the same time! Even though the movie is French, it is still amazing. It is based on a true story which makes it even more incredible.
