- Ever wonder what your pets really do the moment you leave the house? On this family movie review, Isaac and Seth bring real film analysis and honest movie reviews to Illumination's The Secret Life of Pets (2016) — revisiting this nostalgic, wholesome film to ask: does it still fetch laughs a decade later, or has it rolled over and played dead?
They break down Max and Duke's rocky road to friendship after getting lost in the city, Snowball's scene-stealing revenge plot voiced by Kevin Hart, and the surprisingly dark humor sprinkled throughout — plus a little classic movie analysis of why this original story (not a sequel, not based on a book) became the first film in history to open over $100 million without either.
Fun facts you'll want to share: Gru from Despicable Me makes a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo walking his dog early in the film. Will Smith and Chris Rock were both considered for the role of Snowball before Kevin Hart made it his own.
Plus the Kid Test across all four of Isaac's kids, and the official rating — a rare unanimous decision this time. Does it go home, get watched at Grandma's, or get hidden in the attic?

On this family movie review, Isaac and Seth bring classic movie analysis and honest movie reviews to this nostalgic true story — a classic youth movie about ambition, pressure, and what really matters, still relevant among children movies and family friendly films 30 years later.
Josh's journey between two very different chess mentors — the disciplined Bruce (Ben Kingsley) and the aggressive Vinnie (Laurence Fishburne) — sits at the heart of the film, alongside the pressure from his father, Fred (Joe Mantegna), who slowly learns the tournament was never really about him. The cast is stacked: five Oscar nominees on just a $12 million budget, including William H. Macy, Joan Allen, Laura Linney, and Tony Shalhoub.
Fun fact: Laurence Fishburne's role was originally offered to Ice-T, and the film once held a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Plus a trivia question about the real chess rating of the actor who played Josh, the Kid Test, and our final rating — home, Grandma's, or the attic?

Check out our Patreon for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/c/MoviesatGrandmasHousePodcast - Babe (1995) is a family movie that proves a talking pig can carry an entire film. In this family movie review on Movies at Grandma's House, we revisit this nostalgic gem with real film analysis and honest movie reviews — breaking down its surprisingly mature themes, the stunning animatronic work, and whether this wholesome children's film still holds up 30 years later for kids movies fans and new parents alike.
They break down Babe's journey from runt piglet to champion sheep-herder, the surprisingly realistic (and sometimes intense) farm life themes, and the incredible practical effects from Jim Henson's Creature Shop that still hold up better than most modern CGI. Plus the film's stacked cast — James Cromwell, Christine Cavanaugh, Magda Szubanski, and Hugo Weaving — and Granny's official family-friendly rating: B for a few intense scenes.
Fun facts you'll want to share: 48 different pigs were used to play Babe, since the breed grows too fast for one to last the whole shoot. Director George Miller waited a full 10 years to make this film, holding out until special effects technology could catch up to his vision. And James Cromwell starred in another film simply called The Babe (about Babe Ruth) just three years before playing Farmer Hoggett here.
Plus the trivia question about Babe's spot on the American Film Institute's list of the funniest American movies, the Kid Test with Isaac's own kids (fair warning — the intense scenes didn't go unnoticed), and the official rating: does it go home, get watched at Grandma's, or get hidden in the attic?

Check out our Patreon for exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/c/MoviesatGrandmasHousePodcast - Today we head inside the mind on this nostalgic family movie review, bringing real film analysis to one of the most beloved kids movies of the last decade — Pixar's Inside Out (2015). Does this emotional journey through Riley's move from Minnesota to San Francisco still fill all the feels, or has it lost its spark 10 years later?
Isaac and Seth break down the staggering numbers behind one of Pixar's best original movies: a rare 98% Rotten Tomatoes score, an 8.1 on IMDb, and $859.1 million at the box office on a $175 million budget. Plus the gut-punch Bing Bong sacrifice scene that still gets them both, and a genuinely rare split decision on the official rating — Isaac calls it one of Pixar's most personal, beautiful films, while Seth just can't get past how visually overwhelming it feels on rewatch.
Also in this episode: personal memories from opening weekend over a decade ago, the Kid Test with Isaac's own kids, and Granny's official family-friendly rating (B+ for adult themes and frightening imagery).

Does this underwater epic still hold up 70 years later, or has it sunk after all this time?
They break down Captain Nemo's hatred of mankind aboard the advanced submarine Nautilus, Kirk Douglas' scene-stealing charm as harpoonist Ned Land, and the legendary giant squid battle — still one of the most ambitious practical effects sequences Disney ever attempted. Plus the two Oscars this film won (Best Art Direction, Best Special Effects), making it the first fully live-action Disney film to take home an Academy Award outside of documentaries and shorts.
Fun facts you'll want to share: Gregory Peck actually auditioned for the role of Captain Nemo. The underwater footage was shot in the same Bahamas location used for the 1916 silent version. And Kirk Douglas' $175,000 salary was the highest Disney had paid any actor up to that point.
Plus the Kid Test — mixed reactions across Isaac's four kids, with one surprise favorite — and the official rating: does it go home, get watched at Grandma's, or get hidden in the attic?
