appreciated the great animation, but disappointed in crudeness.

Rating: Null/10 (22 May 2001)

My 10-yr old son and I saw the movie together. The animation by Dreamworks is fantastic and the storyline was very clever and original. Unfortunately, crudeness is presented during the opening frame and escalates throughout the movie. I would not see it again for that reason, nor will we be renting it when it comes-out on video. It is truly sad that production companies present such crudeness and family unfriendliness in a film that had such great potential. My son has not commented a lot on the movie, except to ask why such-and-such scene (rude and/or crude) was in the movie. For those interested, we are fundamental Christians. It is SO sad that the film industry does the above-mentioned to "family films". :-(
