I took my two young sons to see this at Fork & Screen and me and my 9 year old loved it! The 6 year old was bored - too much talking and not enough animal interaction for him. But I really liked it - really a 'feel good' movie about parenting, families, etc. I was disappointed by some of the language, it was a stretch for PG (a*shole and d*ck) - I think that they could have cleaned that up a bit as this movie is aimed at kids. Overall would recommend it.
We were so disappointed in this movie. Kevin James was really funny, but the whole premise of the movie is trying to get a girl to like you, versus talking animals. I took my 9-year old and 5-yr old boys (we also had 3 girls w/us aged 6-9) and my boys were not into it. At their age, they were there to see talking/funny animals, not a date movie. There were some funny parts, but I agree w/other reviewers that this movie really pushed the PG rating w/the crud humor, and just the boy/girl relations overall. My young boys were just not that interested in it. Very disappointing, as this movie could have been really good given the cast.
This movie was so cool. Amazing visuals. The whole time I kept thinking, how do they do this?? My only negatives were the language (doesn't seem necessary) and the belly shirts. But the music and the effects were really amazing.
I really liked this movie...the premise is the same stuff different film, but Bullock and Reynolds really work well together and they were great! I thought that it was very funny! Really enjoyed it!
