Movie Review

Movie Title: City of Ember. Based on a book by Jeanne Duprau. Rated PG. A great family movie! Both kids and adults will like it. Movie's plot is well defined. The story line keeps you interested the whole time. Setting: Once there was a city underground where people lived. Lights fixtures from the ceiling above gave them their light. Everything was fine until the city's generator started failing. Story line begins with two teenagers, one girl and one boy, who are given their first assignments working for the city. While working at their new jobs they find out that not only is the city's food source running low but that the electricity for the city is failing more each day. The girl finds a metal box with a map. Together with her friend and her little sister they find an escape exist to the outside world. Billy Murray is quite entertaining as the selfish mayor.

Tomorrow is the first Science Experiment Day.
