November 1, 2018 By TC Frugal Mom

Disney’s The Nutcracker and the Four Realms is in theatres on November 2nd, and to celebrate, I have FREE printable coloring pages and activity sheets to share with you!

About the movie:

All Clara (Mackenzie Foy) wants is a key – a one-of-a-kind key that will unlock a box that holds a priceless gift. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyer’s (Morgan Freeman) annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key—which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. It’s there that Clara encounters a soldier named Phillip (Jayden Fowora-Knight), a gang of mice and the regents who preside over three Realms: Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers and Land of Sweets. Clara and Phillip must brave the ominous Fourth Realm, home to the tyrant Mother Ginger (Helen Mirren), to retrieve Clara’s key and hopefully return harmony to the unstable world. Starring Keira Knightley as the Sugar Plum Fairy, Disney’s new holiday feature film “TheNutcracker and the Four Realms” is directed by Lasse Hallström and Joe Johnston, and inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann’s classic tale.

Disney’s Christopher Robin is Nice but Has No Magic

August 2, 2018 By TC Frugal Mom

My family and I love Disney and Winnie the Pooh. I grew up with Winnie the Pooh toys, books and even a Winnie the Pooh dresser when I was a baby, so I have always loved the characters, as do my kids now. So for months we were looking forward to seeing the new Christopher Robin movie, which is out in theaters this Friday, August 3rd.

We got to see Christopher Robin earlier this week, and I will admit my family and I had mixed reviews.

Christopher Robin is a live-action movie about Robin, now a grown-up and played by Ewan McGregor. He has a wife and daughter, and a high-level job at a luggage company in London that is taking over his life. So much that he has to work the weekend he had planned to go to his childhood cottage with his family. His wife and daughter go and he stays behind, trying to figure out how to cut 20% from the company’s budget. This same weekend, his stuffed childhood friend Pooh can’t find Piglet, Tigger or any of his other friends, so he finds Christopher Robin to help him. In the end, Christopher reconnects with the stuffed friends from his childhood who show him what’s really important in life. [Read more…]

March 4, 2018 By TC Frugal Mom

Disney’s A WRINKLE IN TIME opens in theatres this Friday, March 9th, and I have some FREE printable coloring pages and activity sheets!

A WRINKLE IN TIME is a science fiction fantasy film based on the 1962 book by Madeleine L’Engle.

About the movie:

Directed by Ava DuVernay from a screenplay by Jennifer Lee based upon the beloved novel by Madeleine L’Engle, A WRINKLE IN TIME is produced by Jim Whitaker and Catherine Hand with Doug Merrifield serving as executive producer. The film also stars: Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Michael Peña, Levi Miller, Deric McCabe, André Holland and Rowan Blanchard, with Zach Galifianakis.

Meg Murry (Storm Reid) is a typical middle school student struggling with issues of self-worth who is desperate to fit in. As the daughter of two world-renowned physicists, she is intelligent and uniquely gifted, as is Meg’s younger brother Charles Wallace (Deric McCabe), but she has yet to realize it for herself. Making matters even worse is the baffling disappearance of Mr. Murry (Chris Pine), which torments Meg and has left her mother (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) heartbroken. Charles Wallace introduces Meg and her fellow classmate Calvin (Levi Miller) to three celestial guides—Mrs. Which (Oprah Winfrey), Mrs. Whatsit (Reese Witherspoon) and Mrs. Who (Mindy Kaling)—who have journeyed to Earth to help search for their father, and together they set off on their formidable quest. Traveling via a wrinkling of time and space known as tessering, they are soon transported to worlds beyond their imagination where they must confront a powerful evil. To make it back home to Earth, Meg must look deep within herself and embrace her flaws to harness the strength necessary to defeat the darkness closing in on them.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is Entertaining for All Generations (My Review)

December 13, 2017 By TC Frugal Mom

Get ready for laughs, surprises, and edge of your seat action in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. The battle continues between the First Order and the Resistance, and we (finally!) find out how an aged Luke Skywalker responds after Rey has tracked him down on the planet Ahch-to and offers him back his light saber.

As Star Wars episodes tend to do, the movie weaves several stories into one as familiar characters connect with new ones and bond over a common mission.

Right at the beginning, there is laugh-out-loud sarcasm between Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) and General Hux (Domhnall Gleeson) blended with thrilling battle scenes and explosive action.

We meet the Porgs, cute little critters with big, endearing eyes that live on Skywalker’s planet (of course, the kids will love them).

And then we’re thrown into plots within plots that blend together smoothly and give us a deeper understanding of how the characters came to be.

The new characters include Rose Tico (Kelly Marie Tran, above), a brave Resistance worker who goes on a mission with Finn to an impressive casino city called Canto Bight; DJ (Benicio del Toro), a mysterious hacker; and Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo, played by Laura Dern (below). Amilyn is a Resistance Leader who is firm but quirky and mysterious. [Read more…]

Disney•Pixar’s COCO Review & Free Printable Activity Pages

December 8, 2017 By TC Frugal Mom

Disney•Pixar’s COCO is in theatres and it’s a wonderful movie. Have you seen it?

COCO is about a boy named Miguel who dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz. However, his family has banned music in the family for generations. So desperate to prove his talent, Miguel has to travel through the Land of the Dead where he meets a tricky character named Hector who helps him discover the truth in his family’s history.

My family saw the movie and we were pleasantly surprised. Though first, I admit I thought the idea of a family animated movie being about a little boy visiting the Land of the Dead (and having to make himself look dead to fit in) was a bit creepy to me. But by the end I was in tears and loved it. It had such a touching message about family for all ages.

Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a Mexican holiday honors and remembers friends and family members who have died, and supports their spiritual journey. What a wonderful tradition, and how beautiful to value the lives of loved ones who have passed on. The movie is about this holiday and its significance not just to the living but the loved ones who have died.

I don’t recommend this movie for younger kids – the images may be a bit spooky and the content is over their heads. I’d recommend it for ages 9 and up. My 7-year-old didn’t really like it but my 9-year-old loved it.
