Last night, Nicole and I went with some of our good friends, Ben and Molly Simpson to a screening of The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything: A Veggie Tales Movie. I had received an invitation via email a few weeks ago and decided to see how it was. I am not a huge Veggie Tales fan, but interested enough to give it a try.
It turned out to be a decent show. There were some parts where I laughed out loud – some of the plot and lines were just plain silly. But I think that is what you sign up for when you go to see a Veggie Tales movie. It was certainly not targeted at our age demographic. This was evident in the audience there – mostly young children and their parents. No problem though, it was entertaining, free and it was good to hang out with Ben and Molly.
Would I recommend this movie? Yes – particularly to families with young children and to those who are big fans of Veggie Tales. Do I need to see it again? Probably not.

Haha. Wait until you have kids…
I bet you’ll know all the lines to popular children’s movies by heart.
I actually heard the creator of Veggie Tales give a sermon during a conference. He’s really gifted, that man.
Joseph – Yeah, you are probably right. No kids yet though… I think that I may have watched a video of the talk. The director of student ministries at church shared the video from the national youth workers conference. Good stuff 🙂
