Last night I watched [tag]Shrek the Third[/tag]. It was hysterical! There were some jokes that I thought were pretty dumb, but they were great for a children’s movie. There were also plenty of jokes that adults would enjoy. It was really cool how they incorporated some of the other princesses and gave them distinct personalities. There were some parts that I think aren’t appropriate for kids who are fairly young, but as long as the parents watch the film with them, it is probably okay.

The frustrating part of the show was the baby who cried throughout the majority of the film. I understand that it’s a family film, but I went to a 10:00pm showing because I figured the kids would be in bed. This particular child did not look to be even a year old. I think if you’re going to a movie, whether it’s a family film or not, and it’s a 10:00PM showing, then you should only bring a child in who (1) is old enough to have their own seat, and (2) will make it through at least an hour without having to go to the bathroom. The mother took one of her other kids to the bathroom three times during the movie. Now, I love kids, and I know that going to the movies as a family can be a fun experience, but can you please restrict it to showings before 10PM? Am I being unreasonable?
