1. It's sweet
It took me a bit to warm up to the accent Steve Carrell uses for the character but after a point, it started to work for me.

4. We got it from Redbox last week
I wasn't sure what to expect. Great movie for when you feel like something light and heartwarming.

5. It was cute
I liked it. My 7 YO thought it was sort of forgettable, but he's a pretty tough critic. :D

6. it would be a good movie for kids
Edited on Wed Feb-09-11 09:04 PM by BOG PERSON
it is kind of like Up (curmudgeon is brought out of his shell by child who helps him let go of the baggage from the past) but with sort of a wry take on the supervillain business. also unlike Up it is not that likely to drain you emotionally, but that might be what you're looking for in a cartoon.
