Movie Suggestions Please
DH and I want to go to the movies later on today. Not sure what to see - I don't like violent movies so I wouldn't see Blood Diamond or something like that. We were thinking maybe The Pursuit of Happiness? Doesn't look like much is out there right now...
All suggestions welcome!!
Thanks!

Ahh - forgot about that - I want ot see We Are Marshall but I don't think it's playing anywhere near us
Go watch TPOH right now so you can tell me if it's worth seeing - lol.

I'm indifferent to Beyonce, so she didn't affect me one way or another, but it is worth going to see it for Jennifer Hudson's performance alone. She is amazing! Everyone in my family who saw it, LOVED it, including my dad, who said he would go see it again. He NEVER sees a movie twice!

We just got back from seeing the Pursuit of Happyness. I would say it was okay, not great.

Why? Is it based on the Jim Henson Labrynth?

Two minutes into the movie an innocent gets his face bashed in with a glass bottle. Then shot to death. Just not my type of movie. DH knows this. Really have no idea why he would suggest this to me.
Here is the synopsis from MSN
Synopsis
Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro returns to the phantasmagorical cinema that defined such early fare as Cronos and The Devil's Backbone with this haunting fantasy-drama set in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War and detailing the strange journeys of an imaginative young girl who may be the mythical princess of an underground kingdom. Her mother, Carmen (Ariadna Gil), recently remarried to sadistic army captain Vidal (Sergi López) and soon to bear the cruel military man's child, shy young Ofelia (Ivana Baquero) is forced to entertain herself as her recently-formed family settles into their new home nestled deep in the Spanish countryside. As Ofelia's bed-ridden mother lies immobilized in anticipation of her forthcoming child and her high-ranking stepfather remains determined to fulfill the orders of General Francisco Franco to crush a nearby guerilla uprising, the young girl soon ventures into an elaborate stone labyrinth presided over by the mythical faun Pan (Doug Jones). Convinced by Pan that she is the lost princess of legend and that in order to return to her underground home she must complete a trio of life-threatening tasks, Ofelia sets out to reclaim her kingdom and return to her grieving father as Vidal's housekeeper Mercedes (Maribel Verdú) and doctor (Alex Angulo) plot secretly on the surface to keep the revolution alive. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
