Family Picks

Buzz, Woody and Jessie return in this bright animated comedy and adventure as they face a brand new threat to playtime. With the voices of Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack and direction by Andrew Stanton, it is easy, feel good fun for every age. Rated PG and a breezy 102 minutes, it works beautifully for younger kids and the grown ups beside them.

This animated comedy and adventure tells the ridiculous, rambunctious tale of how the Minions conquered Hollywood, unleashed monsters and then banded together to save the day. Directed by Pierre Coffin with voices from Christoph Waltz and Jeff Bridges, it is fast, goofy PG entertainment aimed squarely at laughs. At 90 minutes it is a light pick for families who love the little yellow troublemakers. Screenings are on the modest side this week, so it is worth planning your trip a little ahead.
