If you haven't seen this one, please do - with kids. It's set in Scotland in the middle of a war and the children are concerned about their military dad's well-being. Mother (Emily Watson) tries to keep the dad's death from the kids but they figure it out in the end. To avert the kids' worries, a water creature comes into their lives and grows bigger by the hour. It's funny, entertaining and educational. For the romantics, you'll get a light brush of swooning. The best part about the movie to me is watching the son, Alexander Nathan Etel, and the newcomer, David Morrissey. I have seen Morrissey in a number of movies and he is always awesome. I cannot say enough about the actor - there is a connection. He seems to "get" the roles he plays.
