Animals United (2010)

Konferenz der Tiere (original title)

Genre: Comedy, Animation

*ing:
Voices of Various Artists

Its only after watching the movie I realised the Original was a German movie and not an American Animation work. Now, considering that this comes from Germany a country not known to churn out quality animated movies, 'Animals United' fares decent enough. I personally liked the movie, though honestly I would not rate this as one of my favorites or an animateed movie that I would like to watch again and again ... this one is a decent one time watch. Having said that ... if you rent the DVD or get your hands on a download of this movie, watch it ... it's really not that bad. As the name suggests its the story of Animals in the wild coming together to fight humans who are destroying their habitat. The animals get together to say "Enough is enough and human greed has to be capped". In terms of getting an environmental message across the movie does a good job of entertaining too but somehow the story line is kinda a bit kiddish to appeal for a mature audience. The 5 to 10yr old in your house will love this movie ... but ... you ... with all your baggage will find it difficult to love this movie ... however if you like the movie ... it's good news ... it means a 5 to 10yr old still lives in you :)
So .... yes ... bottom-line .... watch this movie as honestly as you possibly can and try to honestly find out if you have a 10yr old in you :)
