'Planes' Video Review + Keri Russell as the Cool Mom

CC reviews Disney's "Planes" for mom.me

If you haven't yet had a chance to check out Disney's new animated film Planes, you might want to head over to mom.me to check out CC's and my review of the movie.

While I thought it was cute but felt a little familiar, CC thought it was amazing. And what I loved about her review was her total enthusiasm -- and that unexpected reference to Justin Bieber. That made my day.

And speaking of movies, I caught a sneak peek of mom Keri Russell's newest movie, Austenland, from Stephenie Meyer's (Twilight) production company. The Sony Pictures Classics pic stars Russell as a 30-something woman who uses her life savings to visit a Jane Austen-themed resort in England. Let's just say she's obsessed with Mr. Darcy. It's a fun romantic comedy for the Pride & Prejudice set.

I was able to chat with Stephenie Meyer and Keri Russell at a press conference last week. Head over to mom.me to read 5 reasons why Russell is the cool mom.
