Meet the Robinsons(2007)

This afternoon,went to IOI Mall to watch this movies with my wife and irfan, and twice i fall asleep. This is the first time i slept in the cinema hall...what the hell going on...i'm not recommend it for adults & kids..irfan also say its a boring movie...what can i say more....

The animation was very similar to Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and was decent but not really anything new or groundbreaking. Their characters in the movie is recycled from other movies or other Walt Disney/ Pixar cartoon character. What i can say is there's no orginality and no new character to be proud of...Meanwhile their props such as building and time machine transporter...are interesting...

A lot of the jokes in this movie felt as if they were trying to be funny rather then funny but the Dinosaur really steal the show.

Below some of the reviews from other sites:
"… one of the worst theatrically released animated features issued under the Disney label in quite some time." - The New York Times

"… who knows whether the project is meant to be earnest, ironic, post-ironic, made for adults, made for kids, made to teach lessons, or made to be watched in an altered state?" - Entertainment Weekly
".. A Children's animated film of considerable depth" - Rotten Tomatoes


I learned my lesson, next time, I should check the review from the internet before make any decision to watch the movies.

It was quite fast paced and excellent animation but as mentioned above it doesn't really get anywhere, the plot does buildup rather well but never really takes off. Still a pretty good, colorful movie for kids with a decent story and a positive message behind it. Other than that there isn't much new here. As a conclusion, it's not worth to spend RM21.00 on this movies and give a 2 star out of 5 star.
