Good fun

Rating: 6/10 (16 June 2014)

Sweet, feel-good movie. Quite predicable and not laugh-a-minute funny, and mostly quite empty for most of the movie, it has a good heart and finished strongly. Probably more a kids movie than an adults movie though.
Animation is great. Voice stars are interesting, as you wouldn't know it was them, the impressions are so original: Steve Carell, Russell Brand, Jason Segel, Julie Andrews. Even has Jermaine Clement (of Flight of the Conchords), Will Arnett, Kristen Wiig, Danny McBride and Jack McBrayer (of 30 Rock) in minor roles.
Not a classic, but good fun nevertheless.
