An okay movie.
The animation is not the best yet it's tolerable. It does have a moral code of the cliché of not giving up in yourself and believing in yourself.
I think children would be able to sit though the first 45 minutes before the ADHD kicks in.
I say enjoy this film for what it is.

A warm and entertaining family movie
I was not expecting to like this movie very much but thought I would give it a go. Turns out I throughly enjoyed this movie as it had a great storyline was beautifully colourful and had a good amount of heart.
I'm not sure when people starting basing a movie's likability on it's level of animation/CGI special effects but they are missing out when they pick every little technical flaw apart. I didn't notice any problems with the animation because I was too busy allowing myself to enjoy the movie. Silly me not documenting every flaw of every movie in a notebook.
I definitely recommend this movie if your looking for a fun way to fill your time. But please leave your jaded adult world views and expectations at the door and just enjoy.
AmAzing Water Animation Surprises the Birds
8.2 of 10. The second awesome film of 2012 Samuel L. Jackson is in (as a key character voice),and it's very different from Django Unchained, although there's an underlying common bond in working together in each film.
Besides making you want to pet birds, maybe not the vulture-like marabous, the animation doesn't get nearly enough credit. The lizards are bordering on life-like and the waterfall and mist (not to mention sand and other colored dusts) simply has never been better outside of actual filming of waterfalls. Even the bird poo is as gross as in real life.
As for the character voices, I was concerned that Nemoy and Jackson would dominate the audio and distract from the story. Instead, they both give surprisingly understated performances where you need to listen closely to identify them. Even Goldblum deserves credit because I still don't know which character he voiced.
Dear Oscars/Academy, you failed us again. Do any of you actually watch animations/cartoons?
