It's not possible that this came out the same studios that produced The Incredibles just last year.
Forget the turgid animation (sans Pixar - entirely understandable). The story is demented and unengaging from the start. The humor is annoyingly out of step. The emotional sub-plots are tired and seem to be wheeled out as cliff notes. The music is uninspiring. The characters are dis-likable to a tee. The pacing is too slow, too fast. The embedded movie references just come off as crass rather than amusing. It's a horrible mess.
Yes, your under 7s might enjoy it. But if you have a care for making the world a better place in any fashion, donate the price of your ticket purchase to some worthy cause and let the kids watch any Disney/Pixar DVD instead. We the buying public must question why we should allow this type of sub standard nonsense to pass for entertainment anymore and why we should let our children be exposed to anything less than imaginative, original story lines and quality film making.
Disney, you should be disgusted with yourselves!
