2006 - Little Miss Sunshine

Not saying Kick Ass isn't good or that I don't have stupid movies on my list.  I guess I've just cut back on watching movies that look dumb based on their previews in the last few years.

89 Lean on Me

I think you have the 1986 movie Stand By Me where kids go looking for a dead body mixed up with the 1989 Lean On Me where Morgan Freeman plays a badass cleaning up an inner city school.

Given this, I will now assume that on your list you will replace this selection with the obvious choice for 1989 kids movie, The Wizard.  (It is actually 2nd on my list for all movies for 1989)

Quote
True Lies (1994)
141 min  -  Action | Thriller  -  15 July 1994 (USA)
Motion Picture Rating (MPAA)
Rated R for a lot of action/violence and some language
:dunno: If you consider it a kids movie more power to you i guess

I love "chick flicks" that are good. That's why I have Sleepless on my favorite list, and why I didn't highlight Crazy Stupid Love, PS I Love You, The Holiday, Music & Lyrics, and Love Actually. In fact that has nothing to do at all with what I said.

Looking at the movie releases, 2005 was a pretty sub-par year, but Hitch was just a bad movie. I would probably go with Batman Begins or Sin City.

I should mention that I found that exercise excruciatingly difficult to accomplish. I had no thoughts on practically the entirety of that list and felt I could give most of those pictures anywhere from "bad" to "very good". Having said this, this is not a response to mocat's inquiry, as I believe michigancat has responded appropriately.
