Once upon a time, there was an Ogre (Mike Myers) whose swamp got overrun by intruders from fairy tales and Disney movies, including Pinocchio, three little pigs, and a big, bad wolf. All are refugees from the kingdom of the wicked Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow). With the help of an articulate donkey (Eddie Murphy), Shrek sets things right and, along the way, wins the love of Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz), who has a secret but endearing flaw. Computer animation with great humor and, even rarer, heart, makes it a great cartoon movie for family night.
REUTERS - Diversity - or the lack of it - among Academy Award nominees has overshadowed this year's Oscars, but 44 percent of Americans do not support the idea of boycotting the movie industry's biggest night, according to a Reuters/Ispsos poll. Yet that does not mean Americans are happy with the way Hollywood portrays people of colour, or that it makes enough movies that appeal to minorities, the poll showed. The findings come a month after a furor over the omission of any actors of color among the 20 lead and supporting acting nominees for a second straight year, and the absence from the best picture contest of critically acclaimed hip-hop movie "Straight Outta Compton." The omissions prompted directors Spike Lee and Michael Moore, along with actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, to say that they would stay at home on the night of the Feb. 28 Oscars ceremony in protest. Civil rights activist the Reverend Al Sharpton and some groups have called on the public to hold demonstrations and to "tune-out" the ceremony, which is usually watched by about 40 million Americans on television. The Reuters/Ipsos poll, however, showed that just 23 percent of the 2,423 people polled online agreed with an Oscars boycott over the issue. The same percentage had no opinion, and 44 percent disagreed. The survey was conducted about three weeks after the largely white, male-dominated Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which votes on the Oscars, announced it would double the amount of women and minorities among its ranks in the next four years. However, Americans believe Hollywood has its work cut out for it in terms of the numbers of black, Latino and Asian-Americans in front of and behind the camera, as well as the movies the industry produces. Forty-four percent of those questioned said they believe Hollywood has a general problems with minorities and 30 percent said movies made in the film industry's capital do not accurately reflect the racial diversity of the United States. (The Reuters/Ipsos poll was conducted from February 8-16 and has a credibility interval of plus or minus 2.3 percentage points.

If you'd rather be kept up at night cackling instead of screaming, might we suggest Mel Brooks's classic horror movie parody? Brooks and his leading man, Gene Wilder, collaborated on a screenplay that found the funny in the Frankenstein of Mary Shelley. Pulling from the iconography of the Universal monster movies of early Hollywood, Brooks found fresh soil to plant plenty of absurd bits, from a fixation on pronunciation (Frahnken-STEEN!) to sexual innuendoes and a monstrously fun dance number. Gene Wilder, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Cloris Leachman, Madeline Khan, and Teri Garr commit fully, making every sequence electrifying fun. 2ff7e9595c
