Review of Flushed Away (2006) by Jacob — 18 Dec 2013
The story and characters are not the most deep or sophisticated as something like Chicken Run but this film is still a lot of fun. The characters are likeable and charming. The story is flowing and engaging with some nice humor.
Additionally, there is tons of visual appeal and attention to detail. Aardman takes a simple and cliché story and makes a fun and enjoyable film that is definitely worth checking out. Aardman is studio miles ahead of Dreamworks, which makes it sad that this is their last film with Dreamworks as their films are rather enjoyable.
While it’s a shame this film didn’t do well at the Boxoffice and ended Dreamworks’ partnership with Aardman it’s a good film to go out on. Flushed Away is a children’s film with a lot of heart and charm that will appeal to anyone especially animation fans and was more than deserving to get a nomination for best animated film as opposed to Happy Feet.
