Our review:
We thought that the story line was good, but it was a little hard to follow. And while we LOVE Family Movie Night this was our least favorite of the movies.
The story was all over the place and at times it didn’t make sense. We didn’t like that it wasn’t as family oriented as some of their other movies.
My older kids enjoyed seeing Nathan Kress (Freddie from iCarly) in this movie and we thought that he did a AMAZING job with his role in this movie.
The story was serious, but it also had some great family-friendly humor thrown in. Phillip and Donald were hilarious and everyone loved them.
You may like this movie, but you may not. It’s up to you to decide! 🙂 We can’t wait to see what else Walmart and P & G comes up with! We love their movies even though this one was a dud for us.
