pure tripe

Rating: 1/10 (5 November 2001)

a couple of funny gags can't save this pile of thirteen-year-old-minded mush. Multiple fart jokes from the get go signalled a long 90 minutes for this viewer. The film was completely disjointed, with no cohesion of story, structure, character or pace. Each scene seemed to have been created by a different crew, with the total suddenly mashed together at the end. Why this film has been so successful is beyond me. If you want CGI supported by a SCRIPT, watch Toy Story 1 & 2. This was a 90-minute sitcom (a badly written one at that), with some big name voices all going through the motions as "characters" that were nothing but unimaginative derivations of their public personas.
