I am going to turn into Gordon Ramsay but hell I'm a critic. The animation was f*cking atrocious. The character style was trash. 15 years well awaited, my ass.

I want to like it so much, but it wasn't funny and its computer animation let me down and it had a hit and miss premise that let me down and the voice performances were boring. I give this movie 27%.

Not suitable for children, or really anyone for that matter. With good voice talent, competent animation and a pre-halloween season to play within, this 1.5 hour tour has much going for it, but like Frankenstein's monster, it turns out Not suitable for children, or really anyone for that matter. With good voice talent, competent animation and a pre-halloween season to play within, this 1.5 hour tour has much going for it, but like Frankenstein's monster, it turns out to be over-sized mess that scares children and horrifies adults. Having received free passes to see it a week in advance, I don't like to be unkind, but having made the mistake of taken young children (ages 2.5 and 4.5) to the movie, I'd like to take this early opportunity to dissuade others from doing the same. But if you like to expose your youth to slapstick without the funny, countless suicide jokes and lowbrow dialogue ranging from name-calling to hate-speech, then who am I to stop you. Those drawn by the voice talents of John Cleese (playing here a mad scientist reminiscent of the schoolteacher from the cover art of Pink Floyd's the Wall) will be gravely disappointed, as Mr. Cleese evidently had the good sense to leave the movie after the first 10 minutes. If only I had been wise enough to do the same. Expand

This movie was really awful. We have movie night every Saturday for the whole family and this doesn't make the grade. We watched about 1/2 of the movie and shut it off based on everyone's vote. Thumbs down.

Voices and Music poorly cast and chosen. Found the actors to not hit the right feelings to properly portray the given character. The music in many scenes was distracting and again didn't fit the scene as a whole. At times had to fast Voices and Music poorly cast and chosen.

A movie with slim to none comedy and a pathetic and much-spoofed storyline. The animation, writing, plot, voice acting. All of it was of either median or sub-par quality. I could not find one joke or reference funny. In fact, I could notA movie with slim to none comedy and a pathetic and much-spoofed storyline. The animation, writing, plot, voice acting. All of it was of either median or sub-par quality. I could not find one joke or reference funny. In fact, I could not remember one person in the theatre laughing and leaving the theatre everyone was silent and unaffected. Neither Pixar nor even Dreamworks could ever stoop this low. Expand

This film was full of cheap jokes that neither my eight-year old sister or I found funny, and the plot just wasn't entertaining at all. The characters annoyed me and I couldn't sit through the whole thing.
