Another movie review: The Wild
The Wild - we took the kids to watch the latest in animated furries. Tina thought it was meh, Vicky was entertained, but not thrilled. We adults thought it was pretty dull. Nice animations, but the storyline was way too predictable and saccharine. A bit like a Madagaskar clone, only Madagaskar was waay better. What is it with Disney lately? Why are all the conflicts solved through violence? We watched that abysimal Cow movie a while back, I forgot the title, and it was so utterly bad, I am still trying to wipe the yodling cowboy from my memory. Will avoid all things Disney in the future, even if the trailer looks promising.
I am getting a bit annoyed with the rampant post-modern "humor" that permeates recent animation films. I appreciate that the film makers try to tmake the movie entertaining for the parents as well, but a good movie needs more than a script full of haphazard tongue-in-cheek references to other movies and fast editing.
I hope Over the Hedge is better, because the kids are really keen on it. So, only 1,5 out of 5 roars for The Wild.

In that case we'll go, once OtH is released, which is in about 4 weeks...
Thanks. :-)
