A Great Adventure for the Whole Family

Rating: 9/10 (13 August 2011)

Sometimes by brothers insistence surprises me and Rango was one of these cases. It was a late afternoon and my brother had rented Rango which i was already familiar with because of its star studded cast and impressive review. So after much argument over the television i gave in to watch this movie.
I was truly hoping to be impressed and my wish was to be fulfilled in the first half an hour into the movie. Rango is about a Travelling Pet Lizard who is separated from his owners to be stranded in the middle of the Mojave Desert. He then after certain circumstances ends up in a small old western styled town called Dirt. He soon discovers that this rough and rugged town is in a major Water crisis. The problem seems simple until Rango becomes sheriff of the town through his overwhelming acting abilities, immersing himself into the mystery and adventure of the crisis making new friends along the way.
This movies plot is wonderfully simple creating a comfort for the viewer. The humor contained in the movie is extremely well timed and adds the perfection towards the strange and wonderful character developed through out the film. Setting and visuals are beautiful and voice casting was flawless. Johnny Depp as Rango is up to his usual Brilliance accompanied by actors and actresses such as Bill Nighy and Isla fisher.
The reason why i loved this movie was because it surprised me and its non stop action an the occasional laughs making it perfect for all ages. I give this movie 8 out of 10
