The Nut Job
Starring: Will Arnett, Brendan Fraser, Gabriel Iglesias, liam Neeson, Katherine Heigl
Rated: 5/10
The rat colony is in for a harsh winter — the chill, the hunger, the lack of food and a hunt that is getting the rodents into risky human territory. But no, this is no dark animation film full of pathos of suffering.
It is one of hope and humour, one of determination to get to, well, those nuts that will carry them through the cold. The pack is cutely animated and quite alluringly sketched, coming up to general Hollywood standards. But this is a South Korean make with even a cartoon of its world famous bad boy Psy. He comes in at the end and potters around Gangnam style, trying his best to engage you in the flowing credit lines.
As for the film, it is okie-dokie types which your kids on vacation may like to spend time with.
