Incredible Animation

Rating: 7/10 (3 December 2006)

CGI has come such a long way. I actually spent most of the moving thinking of how much memory it must have taken to create the images on the screen. I could have done without the preaching about overfishing, but that's the cost of doing business these days. Sociopolitical messages are everywhere from cereal boxes to music to movies. I thought the characters were engaging. I liked the use of old standards in the soundtrack. The story is nothing new,"Misfit is cast out of the group, but comes back at the end to save the day". The only twist is that he doesn't get the girl. I'd recommend this movie for its amazing images, incredible animation and great soundtrack.
