Like the old days of Warner Brothers

Rating: 5/10 (7 July 2016)

You have to see this film with the right expectations. The animation is really solid, there's a lot of action and quite a bit of good pop music woven throughout. However, the film is no Zootopia, Frozen or Toy Story. You won't become emotionally invested in the characters in the way you did while watching Toy Story, for example. Pets is actually very reminiscent of the classic Warner Brothers style of cartoons, aka Looney Tunes. Did you ever really care about what happened to the Road Runner or Wile E. Coyote? Probably not, but the show was entertaining for what it was. Slapstick carries Pets. That was obviously the game plan for this film. If you go with that framework in mind, you should be satisfied.
