I hate this movie, movie! I hate this movie, movie!

Rating: 2/10 (30 June 2005)

This movie was seriously overrated by the majority of the critics. In fact, Entertainment Weekly, which is the one magazine that has the same opinions of mine 77% of the time, gave this movie an A-. Well, let me tell you: Boy, were they doing that movie a favor when they gave it an A-. First off, the movie was absolutely BBOORRRRIIINNNNGGGG and seemed to go forever even though it was a short 85 min. long. Second, where was the freaking' plot? The plot was extremely weak. Also, I swear, most of the sickly giraffe's humor was GROSS(Ex.: He gives Marty the Zebra his 1st rectal thermometer); he needs to be put to sleep if he gets sick that often. That song (Move it, which is like, 15 years old)which the lemurs sang wasn't even fun the 1st time, and by the end of the movie, I wished they were extinct(They played it over & over again...UGH!). Even though it was a "family comedy" (they have Sammy Davis, Jr.'s song "Candyman" playing at one point), my mom & everyone else in my family watching this only laughed about twice. While the little kids seemed to like it, it was not worth the $7 it cost me to get in. The art style also gave me nightmares; the animals were so blocky!If you want to see a 3D movie, rent either any of the Pixar movies or Shrek and avoid this. Because the penguins saved this movie from getting a one (you know a movie's bad when the only funny part is when penguins say "Well, this sucks!"), this movie gets a 2/10.
