Dueling Critics
“[T]he brightest, funniest, sweetest, and all-around best one yet…The animation is exceptionally detailed, supple and dynamic. The interplay of the images with the action and dialogue adds emphasis and clever twists that will reward a second and third viewing.”
“Hollywood’s most tiring movie franchise has finally expired (with any luck) in a spasm of pure hyperactive pointlessness…Cue all sorts of strangely tired, laugh-free goofiness, with none of the funny lines and wit that come as standard with Pixar/Disney films.”
