I don't know why it seems like we're always watching cartoons - not that it's a bad thing, but we can often have trouble agreeing on movies. I guess cartoons are always a middle ground!
Home - I have no idea why this movie was in theatres for so short a time. It was awesome and very funny. It's possible that translating Sheldon Cooper to a socially awkward alien could be a little grating for some, but Jim Parsons and Rhianna are just awesome together.
The Nut Job - I can't tell you much about this movie because I fell asleep half an hour in and woke up ten minutes before the end. It's a Canadian/Dutch/Korea production and the animation is pretty fantastic along with big name voice talent - but it was just way too long to tell the competing stories of squirrels and crooks planning their own heists. It's based on a short animation that is much funnier.
The Secret Life of Pets - this movie was all I hoped for after all the hype. It was hilarious and lots of fun as Duke and Max struggle to become friends. The budgie didn't get a lot of screen time, but it was adequate. My favourite scene was when the dogs end up at a sausage factory - so weird! The thing that really stuck out in this movie for me though was that for a movie set in New York, it's not very multicultural at all.
