Guilty, of over acting

Rating: 2/10 (2 February 2008)

I must have watched a different movie from the "10 out of 10ers". This movie is obnoxious, tedious, and ridiculous. The accents made it hard for kids to understand the characters. The shotgun blasts made it hard for me, a parent, to enjoy the supposed family-friendliness of this movie.
Above all, the relentless over-acted character conflicts are sickening. Guys, if you can't make a kids movie without this level of conflict, you need to start making Rambo 6 (or is it 7?) The graphic animations are inconsistent -- the rats look rat-like while the people look like the result of Tim Burton stylizing a Dick Dastardly cartoon.
Oh, we just lost one of the kids -- he found something better to do.
So what on Earth is all the hype about on this one? Of course with under 500 comments, it is easy to imagine that most of the comments here are paid to be here.
Avoid. Skip the rental even.
