About This Blog

Aside from the obviously educational media that teaches children things like math, science and reading, what does a child learn when they go out and watch a movie, or see a video at home? There are so many clever films out there that teach kids morals and socialization skills, but these aspects of a movie are rarely discussed in movie reviews. This blog makes it easier to decide which movies would best benefit a particular child, depending on what issues are affecting them. If you know, in advance, about the topic covered in the film, then you can be better prepared to talk to the child.

You can search movies by title, producer, or even subject matter.

Megamind

Megamind - Dreamworks

Two infants from a doomed planet come rocketing to earth. One crashes into the mansion of a wealthy couple; the other lands in a correctional facility. The end up going to school together, and their very different home lives have very different receptions at the school. The wealthy boy is loved by all. The one raised by prison inmates is scorned, no matter what he accomplishes. Their rivalry turns them into a super hero and super villain. However, the "good always prevails over evil" that is assumed by all, actually, does not work the way we all believe that it should.
