In Stores August 12, 2008
( Los Angeles , CA ) – First Look Studios proudly announces the DVD release of FRANK. Written by Robin Bradford and directed by Douglas Cheney, FRANK follows the story of a mangy mutt and how he brought a troubled family closer together. The DVD streets on August 12, 2008 at an SRP of $19.98.
When a family retreats to their summer cabin, they hope the idyllic lakeside setting will wash away their petty squabbles and day-to-day worries. But before the coals on the first campfire are cool, their world is turned upside down when their son stumbles upon the creature “terrorizing” the locals — a big, drooling, lovable mutt, FRANK. Much to Dad’s (Jon Gries, Napoleon Dynamite) dismay, Frank may eat his lunch or slobber on his important project, but it is Frank who saves the day and reminds their teenage daughter and rambunctious 9-year-old son that family vacations are about being together and loving one another.
GIVEAWAY:
Courtesy of First Look Studios, I have two copies of Frank (on DVD) to give away to my readers.

With the price movie theaters are charging these days, we usually atch all our movies at home on vhs or dvd. One of our faves that we have watched lately is Mrs. Winterbourne. Our next purchase will be College Road Trip. It looks really funny!
ReplyDeleteNo, I've only seen Batman this summer

We saw Journey to the Center of the earth as a family and it was great fun. I recommend it.
ReplyDeleteThree generations (16 to 70) saw Mamma Mia and all of us loved it. It was a fun movie.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, I guess we were busy, but we have not seen any movies in the theatre this summer.
ReplyDeleteWe have been renting dvds, though.
Thank you!

We saw the Veggie Tales movie in the Spring and enjoyed it. We haven't seen any kind of movie in a theater since then.
ReplyDeleteI saw Alvin and the chipmunks. That was a very cute movie. Saw it at home on DVD. The movies are a little costly.

well.... Kung Fu Panda was so clever and fun.... maybe a tad scary for the toddlers though....
ReplyDeletePenelope was a great fairy tale!!!
I agree with one commenter about NIms Island...
Just wishing I had seen Kit Kitteridge and Wall-e....
Great giveaway.

We saw Everyone's Hero and Dr. Seuss. I heard Kit was a great movie too. Thanks:)
ReplyDeleteWe watched Nim's Island on Family Movie Night last Saturday and it was really good. I would recommend it to anyone.

The last movie we saw in the theatres was Shrek 3 last year, but they did get Alvin and the Chipmunks on DVD and we will be watching that this afternoon. They start school tomorrow, so this is our last play day!
ReplyDeleteThis looks really cute!

We took the family to a double feature drive-in last month and saw Wall-E and Kung Fu Panda. We all really enjoyed both movies.

I could kick myself that we did not take advantage of the free movie Tuesdays in our area this summer! Otherwise, we can't afford to take 5 children to movies! I did hear great things about Nim's Island. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI honestly havn't been to the movie theater at all this summer. We do have a theater in the town next to us that offers free movies, but I have yet to make it.
ReplyDeleteI think the last movie I saw in the theaters was, 'Horton Hears a Who'. I thought it was really cute, but I like the book better.

BTW-- Pleaase sign me up for the contest. :0)
I've managed to see one movie in the theater this summer- Harold & Kumar. Not exactly what I'd call a family film but hey- I certainly felt closer to my daughter after having a date night break. I was in a much more cheerful than usual mood when I cleaned her nappy the next morning.
ReplyDeleteI threw up a blog on it too:

Horton Hears A Who was really cute. It's so hard these days to find good clean family type movies. dyanCB@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteWe wanted to see Wall E but we ended up seeing Mamma Mia! I don't think Mamma Mia was extremely family appropriate as it was highly suggestive and... but the music was fun.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Wall E will be at the top of our rental queue when it's released!

Kung Fu Panda was a great family movie that everyone can enjoy. Hitch was also a family favorite, though I'm not sure if that's good for little little kids.

We haven't seen any movies in the theater this summer. Thank you for the contest.
ReplyDeleteNo we haven't seen any good family movies in the theater. But that is because we haven't had a chance to go to the movies yet this year. To busy, someone is always working. So far we have been watching DVD's at home.

we havent been out to the movies but we watched the sound of music the other day. a classic!
ReplyDeleteKung Fu Panda was fabulous for the entire family!
ReplyDeleteDear Laura,
ReplyDeleteWe saw Narnia's Prince Caspian at the beginning of the summer. C.S. Lewis is a genius, and so are the producers of this film. This movie was soooo worth it.
Thanks!
