Stunning

Rating: 8/10 (26 May 2007)

This was a movie you couldn't help but enjoy, sure the storyline was a bit basic but i loved how they managed to include so many songs and dances into the film, also the themes of survival, brotherhood, the passing into adulthood and friendship was great.
I didn't really get how Mumble was the slowest in his physical growth though, i mean even after his first love Gloria had about 8 kids he was still malting his baby feathers.
but i think there's a huge gap between a good film and a cinematic wonder whose name you will forever recognise, this was somewhere in the middle, a really good movie but only deserving of an Oscar and no more, and the simple reason i feel was that the storyline was just too basic.
