It's been awhile since I've seen a movie so good that it became my "new favorite movie".
And we watch a lot of movies.
So I'm always thrilled when we find one THAT good.
And we did.

It's one we've been wanting to see since we first saw the previews.

The biggest draw to me was wanting to see Jodie Foster in a comedic role.

The very-close-second reason was because it has Gerard Butler in it.
You know, Gerard Butler??!! The hot, Scottish, guy?
King Leonides?
Attila the Hun?
Timeline?
But I digress....

And let me tell you, my husband is so wonderful that he will take his Southern accent and do a really bad Scottish accent just for me!!

Oops! Still digressing.....

It also has Abigail Breslin, who's a phenomenal actress.

Yeah, it's awesome!
Lots of adventure.
A homeschooled kid.
Strong parental love.
Laughter.
And it's actually a family movie.

If I'm really good and get my "to do" list done, I'm going to reward myself and watch it again today.
If I don't get it all done, I'm gonna watch it anyway.
Sort of a consolation prize.
