Total Awesomeness!!

Rating: 10/10 (24 September 2009)

I have seen countless trailers for this movie on Nickelodeon when it first came out. I really thought it would be a really stupid movie.
I was totally wrong! I watched this movie on-demand and fell in love with it! This was the funniest, greatest, most visually stunning animated movie I have ever seen!! (Other than the always incredible Pixar movies) The movie was just so funny! Jack Black did an amazing job, and he made me laugh the whole time! This movie delivered big laughs all the way through, and balanced it out with some more serious, heart-warming scenes, which were great.
The animation was incredible! The landscapes were beautiful, the fight scenes were detailed and exciting, and the characters looked like you could reach into the screen and pet their fur! I loved the slow motion moments.
Another thing, the story was really cool and well written! It kinda seemed like a mix of a classic nickelodeon storyline and the storyline for a Japanese cartoon. It was nothing less than entertaining! Don't think its just another Hollywood mess-up full of clichés and fat- jokes. It's a great movie for everyone!
