Choosing a good film for a family movie night

When you have a young family it is often the case that instead of going out to the cinema to watch the latest new release it is easier to stay at home and have a family movie night. It is cheaper, more relaxed and nobody minds if someone needs a break halfway through.

The hardest part is often choosing what to watch. Check the age rating first and read a short review so there are no surprises. Animated films and classic adventures tend to work well because they have something for both children and adults.

Let everyone take turns picking the film each week, get the popcorn ready, dim the lights and make it an event the whole family looks forward to.
