Shocked at how good this movie was

Rating: 10/10 (31 August 2011)

Let me preface my review by saying I watched this when it finally made its way around to my cheapo movie channel, and I didn't expect to even like this movie much less love it. The characters and acting were much more charming than I expected and funny as well. Loved the slapstick and clever humor. Then, it combined that with sweet tear jerking moments coupled with the fascination of the world that only a child can usually experience. But even for adults, the characters and story draw you into those feelings. And I was constantly amazed at the quality and sophistication of the computer animation. There are many clever aspects to this movie beyond the animation. But suffice it to say, it's a great movie worth seeing.
