Disney and Pixar have some competition this year.

Rating: 10/10 (15 March 2011)

I can describe how much this movie blew my mind. Disney and Pixar's movies have stole the show with Toy Story 3 last year. This year, so far the crown has to go to Paramount Pictures and Nickoloden Studios for this gem. Johnny Depp stars as Rango, a chameleon that has a bit of an identity crisis. Like he doesn't know who exactly what he is destined to be. One day when he gets stranded out of the middle of the desert after his owners leave the window open of the back of the car and he tries to find some water.
After escaping a hawk, he comes encounter with Beans voiced by Isla Fisher that has occasional moments where she freezes like a statue. She takes Rango to the city called "Dirt" which has gone to waste since their lack of water. And after Rango kills defeats the hawk, he is named town Sheriff by the mayor voiced by Ned Betty. One day, after the water bank has been stolen by prospectors, Rango and the gang set off to go and see where all the water is going to.
This is probably one of the most violent kid movies I've seen. People getting shot at and drowned to death, and the use of the word that references "Dang" and "Heck". But that didn't take away what I loved about this movie one bit. This movie was not afraid to be weird and do things that a kids movie wouldn't do. I think this movie was one of Gore Verbinski's best works since the first 3 Pirates of the Caribbean movies. And this movie should impress all you western movie fans out there. This is a definite full price movie and this is something you don't want to miss out on. Cars 2, Kung Fu Panda 2, and Puss in Boots better wow me, because Rango is the best animated movie this year so far.
