It is entirely predictable!

Rating: 3/10 (18 November 2012)

Looks like I have finally found a winner for the Oscars of that year that the awards should reconsider picking. Rango can be summarized in a line used by one of its characters 'its entirely predictable'...and it really is.
Looking at modern animation nowadays, i am sorry to say, this cartoon has more clichéd elements and more uninteresting characters that are lacking both in terms of depth and intelligence (seriously, is this how they want to fool the kids? Even though it is just a cartoon?). Also, even with a cowboy theme, it appears quite dead as compared to other real cowboy-theme non-cartoon movies. The score could have been much higher if the film is smart enough to introduce the back stories of the main characters -- who is Rango? Who is the female lead? or the villain? or the Mayor? I have no idea at all.
