The Metro Chase

I continually look for movies that I can see WITH my grandchildren. This movie was a great choice and they liked it as much as I did. It was great watching the movie unfold and it looks like it could have another chapter or two, maybe they will all go somewhere again, sort of like Home Alone...I would watch every one of them and be sure my grandkids were with me... great family movie. Not 'kid' stuff, it was good clean fun for all ages. Every character in the movie was great...the young boy, Zak, was endearing, his sister and her 'boyfriend' had great chemistry and I loved them both. Tara was as cute as a button. Overall, it was a great movie and we ALL enjoyed it. It is a movie I will recommend to others who want to be sure their children or grandchildren can watch without having to censor it first. Good, clean, fun! So refreshing.

Rented "The Metro Chase" for my niece who absolutely loved it and then requested it for her birthday. It's not easy to find, but definitely worth it. Or since it's a kids' show, just buy it. I would much rather watch this with them than a lot of the other stuff that's out there. It's a pretty predictable story about a boy lost in Paris who helps the police solve a crime. Nothing too unusual there. But Jon Cryer is funny as the very stern teacher; the boy, Christopher Plumley, is cute without being annoying; the scenery is soo nice, and it was great to see Lindsay Felton back. The rest of the cast is good, too! Tara Lipinski is adorable. Very cute!

This is typically formulaic kids' fare. The boy and his sister arrive in Paris, the boy gets lost, everyone searches for him, the boy ends up in danger, the boy catches the bad guys and saves the day and the family is reunited. It seems like a "Home Alone in Paris" for television. Parents will love the music and the sights in Paris! Younger kids will like the boy, Zac, well-played by Christopher Plumley, who uses his wits rather than high-tech weapons and special effects. Older kids will especially like the teens:talented Lindsay Felton as the boy's scared older sister, ultracool John Hooper as the would-be boyfriend, effervescent Tara Lipinski as the sister's helpful friend, and comical Jason Padgett as her hapless boyfriend in tow. And everyone will love that nutty Jon Cryer as Zac's " stern wannabe" teacher because we all had a teacher like that at one time or another. A very nice little movie.

Wonderful movie to watch as a family! My kids loved it! Highly recommend it.

We watched it n french class and its amazing. Lot of intencity.
