Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey Review/Giveaway


Oh how my 6 year old LOVES Curious George, in fact we call him our little monkey because he is just like him. ALWAYS into mischief but always with good intentions. So when I was offered the opportunity to review a copy of the new Curious George movie Curious George 2-Follow that Monkey I was excited as I knew my so would do his excited dance. Trust me when I say he did not let me down! He cracks me up. As I child I loved all the Curious George stories, we did not have the moves or TV shows WAY BACK THEN so I do enjoy watching them with him.

I popped the movie in for him and I will admit I did not watch the whole thing with him as I took advantage of the TV sitter to get dinner ready. I did hear giggling and belly rolling laughing coming from the living room and at one point I even heard a VERY familiar voice, Matt Lauer. I knew he was "in" the move but did not know what character he voiced until that moment. I busted out laughing as he voiced a TV anchor by the name of Hark Hanson, HILARIOUS I tell you hilarious! I am sure his children got a HUGE kick out of that! This movie did not disappoint, he LOVED it and claims it is his new favorite movie of all time. That is huge in his world.

From the back of the DVD:

The world’s most beloved and inquisitive monkey is back in Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey, the fun-filled sequel to the hit animated movie. Join Curious George and The Man with the Yellow Hat as they set out on a madcap cross-country adventure to reunite Kayla, a homesick elephant, with her family. This unlikely trio faces all types of comic calamities and colorful characters and in the end learn that with family, friends and determination you can achieve anything. Featuring the voices of Tim Curry, Matt Lauer, Jamie Kennedy and Jerry Lewis, Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey, “proves that family, friends—and curiosity—are number one.” (Francine Brokaw, Los Angeles Family Magazine)
