A small goat with big dreams gets a shot at the pros in roarball, a fast, full-contact sport dominated by the fiercest animals around. It is a recent kid-friendly animated sports comedy, and Elmhurst Park's open lawns make an easy Friday night for local families. If you have young kids in Queens, this is the free outdoor movie closest to home.
