I am a good uncle and I try to take my brother’s kids to see a movie once in two weeks and I am happy to say that this film was pretty great and I recommend seeing it in the theaters. I spent some extra cash to see it in 3D and I think it was totally worth it because the film was pretty incredible visually and 3D enhanced the experience. My niece and nephew also really liked this film and that is pretty rare to find a film that both kids and adults can watch together and enjoy it together. I thought that the characters were well developed and likable and i liked the story and the theme of the film. Overall, I think this film is worth your time and money and it must be seen on the big screen. -
I went to see this film with my little niece and we both had a great time watching it. We saw it in 3D and I definitely think it is worth the extra cash because the film is pretty amazing visually. It is amazing to see how far animation has come, I was very impressed with how this film looked. I thought that the characters were interesting, relatable, and very likable and that is why I really enjoyed watching this movie. My niece really liked it as well and it is hard to find a film these days that both adults and children can enjoy together. Overall, I think it is a great family film that will make you laugh and you will have a good time watching it. -
Your first indication that the latest computer animated romp from Dreamworks is not exactly the best animated film you’ve seen is that it’s releasing in March. Any cartoon worth its pixels is released in the summer or Thanksgiving thru Christmas season.
Your second indication should be that it stars the voice of (wait for it) Nicholas Cage. Yes, the ever-grunting and cheerless Cage who long ago gave up the dignity of acting for commercial success (it’s like a d*** Cheney false choice!) is the star attraction in a movie that is supposed to make youngsters laugh and cheer. Good job, casting department.
Since it’s set in prehistoric times and purports itself to be about the first family road trip EVER, you can expect a lot of tongue-in-cheek references to The Flintstones. It sort of helps that the movie is co-directed by Chris Sanders who made the winning and charming Lilo & Stitch over a decade ago when he worked at the Mouse House, but this film doesn’t have the strength of character or depth of relationships that made Lilo so memorable.
It does have a gruff father (Cage) who is constantly battling it out with his teenage daughter (Emma Stone), especially when it comes to the handsome stranger (Ryan Reynolds) they happen upon as they make their way to a new cave. But since it’s all so stock and cliché and only features a small amount of laughs for the grown ups, this one is straight kiddie fare. It will come and go in a few weeks time, and no one will remember it in a year’s time.
