We saw this at Wimbledon today. It was much better than I anticipated and the kids loved it!!

This was not one of the better animated movies recently - story was poor and characters average. Nice and colourful but 3D added nothing - kids enjoyed it but I was bored.

6/10 from me.

No the best animated movie I've seen, but it was enjoyable. Liked the aliens and how they talked and thought Jim Parsons voice suited the character or was it the other way round? The animation was excellent. Not sure how old the girl was supposed to be, but she sure could drive whatever age she was?? A loose, rather than a solid 7/10 for me

Ohhhh! I thought this was fantastic and enjoyed it more than I ever thought I would. Ok, some of the jokes are a bit lame ("my name's Gratuity but you can call me Tip") but the heart was in the right place. Oh was such a loveable little misfit, the cat named Pig (?) was cute but the monster turned out to be even cuter. Plus I loved the adapted car! And let me see whether I got that right: he turned yellow when frightened, orange/pink when happy, red when angry, blue when sad and green when lying. The only thing I didn't understand was why they talked about boobs so much. :giggle:

not as bad as I thought it was first time, although we had a proper sized screen this time.

I think I napped through a bit of it first time round, shearing off some of the plot consistencies thereby. This time it felt more whole.

Good enough for kids, fairly good for adults, undemanding bubblegum dayglo fun, its main strength remains the eye-popping visuals and breezy soundtrack.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?
