One of the best films of 2007.

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2007)

I work at a local theater and have seen all of the sub-par crap that studios have been sending us to watch. I caught an early showing because I work there and went in with the feeling that it might be like Shrek: The Third or any of the other "okay" animated films I have seen in the past year. This movie is so different. It feels like you are watching a live action movie that has been painted with cartoon colors and textures. Everything is meant to look real and at the same time fictional. The characters seem more human than in most cartoons and more time is spent developing the attributes and emotions of each character. The part where they learn how to cook with each other is quite hilarious. You see the bond forming between the two, not like most cartoons where the characters seem to just get along out of nowhere. I recommend this feature to everyone, with the exception of really little kids(ages 4 and under). This has nothing to do with content, but it seems more mature than most Pixar/Disney films and they might lose attention quickly. Also the film is almost two hours long.....so prepare for a lengthier adventure than most!!!!
