°°°°The boy speaks English, the girl speaks Russian. How they understand each other.°°°° Where are safeguards with binocuars (out of The White House)?!! Where even cheap GPS/Glonass etc. Devices. Where survival kits on kids? They may die even without sabotage in forest when they go rafting and boat cracks naturally. Where survival whistles, ropes, alarms, knives, survival pens etc. Where cellphones?

My family first encountered this movie on a flight across the country. Both of my children were delighted with the story and the adventures of the two kids in the White House. It was the first time either of them showed any interest in anything resembling politics and we had a nice conversation about what it may be like being the son and/or daughter of an international leader. Upon our return home they both insisted on purchasing the DVD and when we all watched the movie as a family I could see why they enjoyed it so much. Both children in the movie were delightful in their portrayals of regular kids being thrust into the world of political intrigue. The action scenes were suspenseful and fun without introducing foolhardy antics and the dialog was suitable for kids and tweens (and Adults!). Zane Austin and Francesca Capaldi carried the movie admirably with an obvious rapport between themselves. And it was clear they were, as Francesca put it, "Dog Persons". If you and your family is looking for a fun, down to earth movie with talented kids that make a good impression on the audience this movie comes highly recommended.

Max, the saviour of the White House, manages with ease to entertain us all. I personally love this movie. It fills you with warm feelings. It's enjoyable and fun to watch. Perfect for an evening spent with your dear ones.
