Movie Review: Who is Simon Miller?

P & G and Walmart have put together another great Family Movie Night for us, Saturday, August 6 on NBC at 8pm ET/7pm CT. Who is Simon Miller? This is the story of a family that is about to have their lives changed forever by learning a secret about dad that they could never have guessed. I don't want to give away the details but the movie is a mix of Dan Brown's The Davinci Code, The Brady Bunch, and James Bond.  How can you go wrong with that mix?  I would say this film is appropriate for all except the youngest kids in the family. My 8 year old for instance is going to love this one.

The cast really seems to jive well together. Robyn Lively plays the wife who is married to Simon Miller - played by Loren Dean. The characters are developed surprisingly well for such a fast moving plot. As a couple on film these two really seem to hit it off, and the results make for a great show. The Miller kids played by Drew Koles and Skyler Day were really great. Both kids are likeable for their own reasons, including quick wit, and intelligence. This show is suspense filled, with a clearly defined set of good guys and bad guys, perfect for children viewers. I will let out this secret - it is a happy ending as usual!

Family Movie Night really is a chance for the family to sit down and watch a movie that you know has truly been designed for the family. I have enjoyed watching these films with my kids, and it has given me a greater appreciation for television as a family event. Keep up the good work!  I have become a willing supporter of family movie night and am looking forward to the next movie!
