I was recently asked to write up a little something about a movie that was just released for sale this past Tuesday. After looking over the storyline of this movie, I think it will fit with my readers just right.
The movie is called FRANK. (rated PG) It’s an adorable story fit for any family or animal lover. Quite honestly, I would want to see this movie even if I weren’t a Mom. Then again, I’ve always been a huge fan of family films.
Here’s First Look Studios’ description of the film:
“When a suburban family inherits a summer home on an idyllic island, they decide to escape the big city to try and bring their family closer together. As they get settled, a mangy, injured mutt named FRANK wanders into their home. Fearful of a stray pet, the father, played by Jon Gries (Napoleon Dynamite), tries to take the dog away to protect his family. However, the children beg to keep FRANK. Seeing that this is the first time his children have united for a cause, he makes a compromise with them to nurse FRANK back to health and then put him up for adoption at the end of the summer. But they soon discover the importance of FRANK in their lives and how much love he has brought the family. As FRANK teaches them to be together, he risks his life to save them in ways no one imagined.”
If you have seen the movie Napoleon Dynamite, you’ll remember Jon Gries playing Uncle Rico. He is hysterical and I think he would fit into the role of “Dad” just great.
What are you waiting for? Go pick up this movie and have a family fun night!
Oh, alright...I’ll give one away to one lucky reader. (I know! It's my first EVER giveaway! Now you know why this post is so exciting for me!)

I'll have to check this movie out, if I don't win it that is! Thanks for the reveiw. It's always hard to know what's actually family appropriate based on reading the backs.
