This is an adorable film that my son adores and I too enjoy watching, so much so that I often try to influence his choice. Id not heard of Curious George until my brother bought the dvd for my son at christmas, at the same time we spotted the tv series was running and ever since my little boy has been hooked.

Matthew O'Callaghan's CURIOUS GEORGE was released in 2006, an animated adventure I stumbled upon at the theatre one Bacardi-induced evening. I vaguely remembered liking it when some months later, a Gordon's-induced evening, I found myself floating up and down the aisles of my local DVD rental shop in search of something lighthearted, considerably more lighthearted than the bottle of gin I was to finish that night.

He even makes sure he adds some brown paint so that it is the same colour as Grandma?s real medicine! He then boils it up to make sure that everything?s nicely mixed together before ...
The American comedy star performs his stand-up routine at the Beacon Theatre in New York.
