This past weekend I surprised my family with a fun family-friendly movie for our weekly movie night -- The Paper Tigers. They had no idea what the movie was about, but after showing them the trailer of the movie, they couldn't stop laughing and couldn't wait for me put the movie on to watch. So, after we got our popcorn and movie snacks ready, we settled in to watch this action-packed laugh out loud movie from Well Go USA Entertainment.
I grew up watching 80's martial arts movies, so was excited to see a new family-friendly movie like this one, for me to share with my two tween girls. This movie was definitely filled with lots of kung fu and martial arts, as well as lots of laughs. We couldn't stop laughing, as the movie played, and once the credits started rolling, we were all smiles. This really was a cute and fun movie that everyone (adults and kids) enjoyed. And, there were no boring parts or lulls in the movie. As soon as the movie was over, my oldest started talking about her favorite parts, and my youngest asked when we could watch it again.
Since watching it over the weekend, my girls have watched it a couple more times on their own, and we have plans soon for another The Paper Tigers family movie night. I, for one, can't wait to watch this movie with my family. If you are looking for a fun, new movie to watch with your whole family, that will have you laughing from start to finish, I highly recommend The Paper Tigers.

More about this new release:
"Certified “Fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes and critically-acclaimed around the world, THE PAPER TIGERS, a homage to feel-good martial arts films like The Karate Kid, debuts on Blu-ray™ and DVD June 22 from Well Go USA Entertainment. The audience-pleasing film shows how three dedicated kung fu disciples grew into washed-up, middle-aged men—now one kick away from pulling their hamstrings. But when their master is murdered, they must juggle their dead-end jobs, dad duties, and old grudges to avenge his death. The award-winning feature film debut of Director Tran Quoc Bao,
THE PAPER TIGERS stars Alain Uy (“Helstrom,” “True Detective”), Ron Yuan (Mulan, “Marco Polo”), and Mykel Shannon Jenkins (The Gods, Undisputed III: Redemption). The film is currently available to watch in theaters and on digital.
Following its world premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival, THE PAPER TIGERS played numerous festivals around the world, winning the Audience Award for Best Narrative Film at the Boston Asian American Film Festival and the Grand Jury Prize for Best Feature Film at the Seattle Asian American Film Festival.
Synopsis:
As teenagers, kung fu disciples Danny (Alain Uy), Hing (Ron Yuan) and Jim (Mykel Shannon Jenkins) were inseparable. Fast forward 25 years, and each has grown into a washed-up middle-aged man seemingly one kick away from pulling a hamstring—and not at all preoccupied with thoughts of martial arts or childhood best friends. But when their old master is murdered, the trio reunites, soon learning that avenging their sifu will require conquering old grudges (and a dangerous hitman still armed with ample knee cartilage) if they are to honorably defend his legacy.
THE PAPER TIGERS has a runtime of approximately 111 minutes and is rated PG-13 for some strong language, offensive slurs, and violence."
