A surprisingly good movie. My wife, in-laws, and 10 year old son all enjoyed the show. Ladies, bring some kleenex..... Sandra Bullock was great and you won't recognize Tim McGraw as the CW singer unless someone tells you which character he is. A true "feel good" movie that is both funny and heartwarming.
With today's Hollywood trying to create the most realistic computer graphics possible, it was nice to see a story ACTUALLY carried by the plot AND dialogue instead. Not much attempt was made to have the characters look like real, live, animals, but rather they looked like pleasantly appealing animated dolls. My kids laughed out loud throughout the movie and I enjoyed it as well. The lack of realistic computer animation in no way detracted from the film and, in fact, allowed us to focus more on the story itself. Nice soundtrack as well.
