Fall is quickly approaching, and the family-friendly movie Grow is the perfect way to start the season.I'm eager to see how the tale of pumpkins and sabotage plays out.
About GROW
Welcome to the pumpkin capital of the world, where the pumpkins are epic, the rivalries are fierce, and the competition is anything but garden variety. Dinah Little, a no-nonsense farmer with a tough-as-a-pumpkin exterior, reluctantly takes in her abandoned niece, Charlie. Dinah is not quick to affection, and Charlie is not one for sitting still. So she throws her into farm life, sleeves rolled up and hands in the dirt.
Then comes the town’s biggest spectacle, the annual pumpkin-growing contest, a Halloween season tradition that brings out wild stunts, eccentric characters, and record-setting drama. But Charlie has something no one else does, a special knack for connecting with plants that quietly reflects her own longing to feel just as seen and loved.
But as both pumpkin and plot thicken, and rival growers pull every trick in the book, will Charlie and Dinah’s unlikely entry stand tall against the fiercest competition the town has ever seen?
As her pumpkin grows bigger, so does her bond with her aunt Dinah. Together they discover that the real prize is not measured in pounds, but in joy, laughter, and family. What begins as a seed blossoms into an exuberant and hilarious story of crazed competition, found family, and love that grows as boundless as the pumpkins themselves.

I am thrilled to see this and share it with you. One of my favorite film genres is Mystery. With this being rated PG, that means the whole family can enjoy it together.
Internet sleuth (or "webtective") Dot Conner receives a cryptic phone call from her father on the eve of her first day of high school, plunging her into an adventure she never expected to face. As Dot navigates the rocky start of her high school life, she uncovers the first of many clues her father has left behind, setting her on an urban treasure hunt with friends Makayla and Alex. Their quest leads them through the city, crossing paths with dangerous Russian
thugs as they go. What begins as a search for her father quickly unravels into a much larger mystery, revealing his deep involvement in the world of espionage. Amid the chaos, Dot discovers the truth of Philippians 4:13, proving that even in the darkest times, faith can light the way. Written and directed by Andrew Huff, featuring Drew Waters and Jason Marsden. A Huff Media Productions presentation, in association with Pangea Pictures.
Mystery movies, shows, and books are right at the top of my list of favorites. Dot Conner: Webtective, although meant for teens, is a pretty good family movie with a little bit of humor thrown in. You can tell right from the beginning that religion is a big part of Dot's family, and she is proud to tell others of her faith. In one part, they do a video sweep of her bedroom, and on her nightstand stand you see a lamp with Nancy Drew Books nearby, which is a classic nod to one of the greatest sets of mystery books available. Nancy Drew and Scooby Doo are why I enjoy mysteries so much.
This movie moved along well with the characters and plot. I can see this being made into a series quite easily. Dot has a web page where she works through her mysteries with the help of verses from the Bible, a loving family, and some good friends.
