Meanwhile, Daniel Radcliffe’s latest effort, Guns Akimbo is an absolutely wild ride, and if you’ve got children around the house, How To Train Your Dragon and the two Spy Kids movies will keep them more than entertained. Plus, there’s Where the Wild Things Are, which will provide enjoyable viewing for the entire family.
