NON3D Works

Rating: 7/10 (29 December 2011)

Quick Review: 'Rango' was mercilessly NOT set in 3D. I don't have a big problem with the brought-back format, but C'mon alreadyit's still just a gimmick. At any rate, 'Rango' relishes in homage to the past Westerns – though it's not technically a Western (too much of a spoiler on why not) – and even then, it's story is really, really old. That said, visually, it's stunning, its attention to detail is that of Pixar-quality, it's hilarious at times and a recommendation for all despite it's too-long running time. Oh, and in spite of the fact it voices one of my all time favorite actors, Timothy Olyphant, they really should've got the real-deal in that great scene. It's a SEE IT. 4/5 Stars.
