October 16:
Monsters, Inc.
(animated comedy, rated G) If you liked
Shrek and
Toy Story, then
this tale is sure to delight. Mike (little green monster) and his
pal Sully (fuzzy purple & blue monster) capture children’s screams
for their employer, Monsters, Inc., which then turns them into
energy. Things go topsy-turvy when one little girl follows them
through the closet into their world.
November 20:
Bruce Almighty
(comedy) Bruce Carrey plays Bruce Nolan, a television reporter who is
unsatisfied with his normal life. When he curses God for a particularly bad
day, God responds by challenging him to take over and see if he can run
things better. After a day of hysterically disastrous decisions, Bruce
learns that a human can’t fill God’s shoes.
December 18:
Deck the Halls (comedy)
This slapstick holiday heart-warmer is about a small town optometrist who
has always been known as the town’s "Christmas Guy." All is well until his
new neighbor out does him by setting out to create a Christmas lights
display that can be seen from outer space. The rivalry goes to ridiculous
extremes until both begin to understand the meaning of Christmas.
