Love It!

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2012)

I really enjoyed this film. The first thing that came to me, was it brought me back to my childhood. I am 19 now, and a visual effects student, and i noticed the old things, like "oh! they used the same font!" and me and my friend sitting there singing the theme tune.
If you loved the first two you will certainly love this one, as its a blast from the past, but mixed with the new technology makes it a great viewing in my opinion. I think it was great to learn all about Kay this time, and find out why he is his sinister self, and it brings back your love for all the characters.
I thought the VFX were particularly good, which gave this film more aesthetically pleasing look compared to the previous ones which obviously, technology has advance to help them improve. I personally don't have any faults with it, though i think maybe i would pick up on something when i see it again, but the non stop action of it just, for me, keeps you engaged so well, that if there are any slip ups or faults, you don't really see it straight away. I feel that this film, was particularly great in 3D. Sometimes i feel films don't need 3D like Harry Potter was just pointless "oh that tree is moving" but for this i thought it really made the viewing experience better and brought the feeling you should get, that you're about to get a spike through your face! Although i was surprised that it was a PG, but i guess with the alien fiction nature its fine!
A Great family film, and a very good revival!
