AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.
Tockinit not horrible nor great
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
SnakesOnAnAfricanPlain I think I have vague recollections of this from childhood. I was able to see it again recently and it's the kind of all-loving Christmas cheer you would expect. The story is about a young worm that moves into a new town. He tries so hard to make new friends, that he keeps messing up and breaking stuff. This is kind of annoying now that I'm older. He does stupid things, like moving a ladder someone is standing on. No wonder worms don't want him around. But, this is all about second chances, and seeing things from the outsider's perspective. The vocal talent was all round pretty good, and not ridiculous cartoon annoyance you'd expect. Apart from the Mayor who had the most forced speech impediment. There's an original song which is a little depressing, but in a good way. The darkness of the animation, only makes it feel warmer towards the end.
ppgman Jerry Reynolds and Rachel Rutledge do a perfect job contributing their voices to this movie fit for everyone of all ages. A lovely movie made with the best animation and songs. Supreme writing, directing, producing, and casting. I suggest you pick up a copy today!
Jonathan-42 Seems like a dream really. I still feel sick when I think of the almost five bits of shiny, flat America that I spent on this thing. That is all. Oh. It turns out that I need to have four lines of commentary. There. This should cover it very easily.
