Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

adampkalb This was as great as I expected to be. I don't remember much, but I totally loved hearing Michelle Rodriguez voicing Paz in this film. I also liked how the brother relationship between Tito and Angelo paralleled Turbo and Chet. But I would certainly watch it again because I really enjoy talking about it. This film is very good and under rated, and not just for a Dreamworks film. I just thought it was cool to see a cartoon snail gets super car powers from liquid nitrogen in a race car and get to be part of the car race. If rabbits can be cops in Zootopia, then snails can race in Turbo. It's a very nice tale of inspiration. I also think it's sweet that the dude from Dos Bros Tacos who became friends with Theo/Turbo got to voice Grubber in The My Little Pony Movie.

Hermione Granger A movie about a snail that dreams of racing and then gets the power to do so. Please.Alright, it's not as goofy or stupid as it appears. The CGI is great, and if you can accept the oddness of the plot, it's enjoyable. There's some good humor in there, too. It's worth watching more than once, and the ending is good.As the headline of my review says, it's better than it seems. It's not your best animated/cartoon CGI film; there are tons more out there, but get past the fact that there's a racing snail, and it's likable.

morrison-dylan-fan Whilst being well aware of their major franchises,I've been meaning to catch up on the individual films from Dreamworks. After being delighted by the off-beat charms of Mr. Peabody & Sherman,I raced down to Turbo.The plot:Dreaming of being the greatest racer in the world like multiple Indianapolis 500 champ, Guy Gagné,Theo has one problem:he is a snail. Sliding down a road dreaming of being in a race car,Theo gets caught in an accident involving a supercharger drag racer. Barely surviving,Theo discovers that his DNA has been fused with nitrous oxide,which allows Theo to match the speed of any race car. Outrunning any snail in his path,Theo starts to dream of being the first snail to contest the Indianapolis 500.View on the film:Whirling round the screen in a haze of bright colours,co- writer/(along with Darren Lemke & Robert D. Siegel) director David Soren gives the characters a bold,building blocks-style design,which whilst firing up the primary colours does leave to the characters only being able to express a limited amount of facial expressions,that ends up causing the snails and the humans to have a plastic appearance. Clearly enjoying the sight of Theo on the race tracks, Soren gives the Sports Drama rush a surprising level of stylisation . Breaking out of the shell,Soren follows Theo round the track in extensive tracking shots which display a great eye for tight cornered locations.Making the snail stand out in the pack,the screenplay by Lemke/ Siegel and Soren set the track out with a playful Adventure Comedy,where Theo's sports dreams are slugged by the daily life of a snail. Whirling into Sports movie mode,the writers crack an excellent level of tension by making Theo drive for his dream one that drives a wedge between his friends. Joined by lively vocal performances from Michelle Rodriguez, Samuel (Yel)L. Jackson and Paul Giamatti, Ryan Reynolds gives a terrific performance as Theo,thanks to Reynolds keeping Theo's doubt intact,whilst keeping his excitement turbo-charged.

lisafordeay Turbo is a Dream works animated film released in 2013 and tells the story of an ordinary snail named Turbo(voiced by Ryan Reynolds from The Proposal and that same year he voiced the young caveman in The Croods another Dream works Animated film) who dreams of being a Grand Prix racer as he has an idol who he adores on TV.But since his a snail and his too slow,his other snail buddies thinks his off the rails only when he spends some time by himself, he comes across a car tournament and accidentally goes inside one of the cars which contains a special formula called Nitrogen something that goes into Turbo causing him to be speedy and fast. He later meets a man who is working in a taco restaurant and its not going too well with the customers so the young man decides to take Turbo in his wing and teach him how to win the Grand Prix race. But can Turbo complete and win the Grand Prix? Overall this was a very predicable movie as you know what is going to happen a mile away and it tries to be a parody of Fast & The Furious and Cars from Pixar. The voice acting was great though you know who they are a mile away. And the rest of the premise is silly but this film is aimed for kids not for adults(although I love watching animated movies as a lot of them have adult humor in them,im looking at you Shrek and Tangled).Bottom line if you have kids check it out,if not avoid.
