Rush Cocky Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Picked it up the day it came out. There are a lot of questionable movies out there, but this is not one of them. My son and I both LOVED this movie when we saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really nice to see a movie that isn't totally formulaic, isn't it? (Pixar >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Disney) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southernjim Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 Disney back in the day (Lion King, Aladdin, you know what I mean) was friggin' fantastic. Now they've turned into a bunch of pimps. (a la Miley Cyrus) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fridge Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 I finally saw this. It has been on my hard drive for a while and hadn't got round to it..... I was expecting the usual Disneyesue schmaltzy sacharrine, and I was very pleasantly surprised. What a charming story, told with just the right amount of characterisation and very emotional without descending into crude button-pushing. Very impressed indeed.

sdhonda Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 They are independent in the creative area. This movie tore me to bits. Shows how powerful a "kids" movie can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
