A 78 year old man ties thousands of balloons to his house to full fill a life long dream of his to see the wildlife of South America. After starting off on his journey he discovers a young boy who is a stowaway that wants to explore with him, and also a few creatures will make the journey with him.
Another Pixar film which should be a good one. The movie is rated PG for some peril and action and has a runtime of 96 minutes. Opens this Friday in a theater near you. I will be taking the grandkids to see this one.

Starring: Jennifer Aniston, Owen Wilson, Eric Dane, Kathleen Turner, Alan Arkin, Nathan Gamble and Haley Bennett
This is a story of a man who buys his wife a puppy hoping that he will stall her biological clock and she wont think about having kids just yet. The man is a newspaper writer and having a dog now has given him new things to write stories about. As the family matures and the man and wife finally have children, Marley continues to test everyone’s patience.
I absolutely loved this movie! Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson really showed great chemistry and I loved their characters that they played very well. I loved how Marley was there to comfort Aniston when her husband wasn’t around and how he adjusted to the children as they grew up. Some of the best scenes were Marley intruding on very private family moments.
I love dogs and I found this movie to be very entertaining and I really enjoyed it and there were quite a few laughs. Keep the kleenex close by! How could you not like this movie with a cute and beautiful dog like Marley! I give this movie a rating of a 8.

Starring: Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus, Emily Osment, Jason Earles, Mitchell Musso, Lucas Till, Barry Bostwick and Vanessa Williams
In the last year or so Miley Cyrus has become one of the most popular teen stars stemming from her hit tv show Hannah Montana. Just 16 years old and Miley has made more money than her country singing father Billy Ray. Her latest the animated film Bolt in which she is the voice of Penny has grossed over 114 million at the box office and I would bet that this movie will probably do as well if not better than that one.
This movie will feature 14 brand new songs and a special appearance by Taylor Swift. Based off of the hit Disney channel television show I suspect that amongst the younger crowd this is a highly anticipated movie release. The movie has a runtime of 102 minutes and opens in theaters on Friday April 10th.
I am not really a fan of Miley or Hannah Montana but after viewing the trailer it looks like it will be a cute little family oriented film that I would probably enjoy.
