Hotel Transylvana

Hotel Transylvania directed by Genndy Tartakovsky. 

I have no idea how to say this guy's name, but all I know is that everything he touches is laced with quality: Dexter's Laboratory (a simple cartoon of such genius), Samurai Jack (again a simple idea but made so great by shots of the cartoon were of a cinematic effect and the movie like cut scenes that linger long in the mind when each episode is over) and finally Star Wars: Clone Wars (made to bridge the gap between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, this single-handedly renewed my faith in Star Wars, which was something even the mighty Lucas couldn't do, and Genndy also helped to make Jedi's cool, again something Lucas failed to with 2 [count them 2] Star Wars films). 

This movie is no different. I don't know why I didn't have that much faith, but I will admit I got caught up in the negative reviews of this movie of which I'm happy to say are completely wrong.  This is a gem of movie with good family values, some genuine laugh out loud moments, and some very good set and monsters designs that make this movie great from the second it started. Oh, and by the way it's also a good family and kids movie, did I forget to mention the kids will enjoy it? There's a lot of love and care in this movie. It just shows from the second it starts and moment the credits start to roll. There is so much to enjoy here.  Go see this movie with your kids or just go see it for yourself.
