What’s better to get you in the mood for a new year than a Michael J. Fox movie that we THOUGHT was family friendly?

Elf

The VCR Kids ·

2020/12/15

It’s rare you see a movie and know it’s going to be a classic. That’s the feeling everyone got when we saw Elf in 2003. Does the wacky Will Ferrell and Jon Favreau team up hold up 17 years later? We watched it to get you the answer. Let us know if you agree or disagree with our take!

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

The VCR Kids ·

2020/12/08

Our second dive into the “Vacation” franchise leads us to a much more manageable Chevy Chase outing. Even though Erin was turned off by the relationship this film has with animals, will the thumbprint of John Hughes make this holiday classic worth revisiting?

Edward Scissorhands

The VCR Kids ·

2020/11/24

Is Edward Scissorhands a Christmas Movie? We didn’t think so, but it just might be. Looking for a movie to fill that space when it’s getting cold and you’re feeling lonely?

The Ring

The VCR Kids ·

2020/10/20

The Ring was released at the perfect time to spook us as high schoolers. In fact, it really was a cultural phenomenon.

Black Beauty

The VCR Kids ·

2020/08/25

One of the best selling books of all time got turned into a movie starring Ned Stark, Professor Lupin, and Nightcrawler. Missed it? That’s probably because it was about horses.
