Inventive and Funny

Rating: 7/10 (21 May 2020)

Up until the last 20 minutes or so, this captures all the best aspects of a Lord / Miller picture: clever dialogue, sharp humor, honesty in its childlike moralism, and characters that reflect reality even in their over-the-top skin. If the action in the final act wasn't quite so overstuffed (ya know, like a turkey...get it?), it could be a real family classic.
