Movie review: Son of the Mask

Manny picked this one. From what I had seen I wasn't expecting much from this movie but it FAR exceeded my expectations!

It was REALLY good. MUCH better even then the first movie. This one was completely different and very creative with lots of great special effects and a very good plot/storyline (well not academy award winning plot or anything but entertaining).

I think for us the movie was made better because it centered around the basic theme of father/son love and the story was mainly centered around the cutest little baby boy who happens to be slightly younger then my son right now. so it had a big cuteness factor and a lot of "awwwwww" moments.

Throw in a great Halloween party scene and that is always a BIG plus for me, especially at this time of year-- and its my favorite holiday.

We liked how the story centered around the actual Norse gods and myths so it added a whole new dimension of fantasy to the film that the 1st film lacked.

I highly recommend this DVD. Its also great for kids and Shayna loved it...BUT its not one of those movies adults hate either. best of both worlds!
