    Park and his team’s creative modelling skills make the films magical, but in replacing them with computer graphics this game delivers pretty average fare. That said, its cartoon visuals and helpful prompts should keep younger children amused for hours.

    Compared to most movie-inspired games, this one is certainly in with the best of the bunch.

    One of the best movie tie-ins you'll play. [Nov 2006, p.135]

    There doesn’t appear to be much depth here, but there is a lot of fun to be had in replaying certain challenges to beat your previous times, so you get more out of it if you dig a little deeper into this seemingly shallow pool.

    Vastly superior to nearly every single movie-based video game I’ve personally played throughout the entire year. That being said, the game still doesn’t have what it takes to compete with the big boys of the action/platform genre.

    The co-op gameplay is what makes this game special, and while there are enough bugs and hitches in the co-op mechanic to ensure players will be annoyed a little on their way to the fun, it's still a worthwhile experience.

The game is hilarious fun with drop in co-op and a story and characters that are just as enjoyable as the source material. A few bugs can muddle things up but any frustrations can be quickly reduced with either the varied and enjoyable gameplay or the levels; or just beating people like a crazed psychopath. This is certainty one game both kids and adults can enjoy to its full extent; together if they want. Great music and audio with on point voice acting tops this little hidden gem off.… Full Review »
