Simply fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (27 June 2013)

Sadly, I didn't watch this film in theaters. When I saw the trailer, I became excited -I grew up watching old classic black-and-white horror movies with Dracula, the werewolf, Frankenstein, the invisible man, the mummy etc- but as soon as I saw that Adam Sandler was in the cast, I turned away. I let my dislike of Sandler get in the way of watching this extraordinary film. Luckily, I found it -albeit a few months later- and it's easily among my favorite animated films. It's smart enough for adult audiences and yet, still has that ability to nurture and cultivate one's imagination. Thank you for the laughs and the tears and the wonder, Hotel Transylvania!
