Review of Mr. Peabody & Sherman (2014) by Leon B — 29 Nov 2014

Review:

For a kiddie movie, I quite enjoyed watching these magnificent men, or should I say dog, in there flying machine. The storyline was well put together and the attention to detail was spot on. The concept is a bit crazy, but it's the different characters which keeps the movie interesting for kids and adults. Basically an extremely clever dog adopts a kid and they build a time machine so they can go back in time. On the way, they make many friends who help them repair an accident that happened in there past. Strange but true. Anyway, it's harmless fun for the whole family and I'm sure that people will find a character that will make them laugh. My personal favourite was Leonardo Da Vinci and the Spartans. Enjoyable!

Round-Up:

Judging by the money that this film made at the box office, I'm not alone with thinking that this was a will made movie. Personally, the dogs voice got on my nerves after a while but the movie really wouldn't have worked without him. If your watching the film from an adults point of view, the time travel aspect is extremely clever and quite complex but it doesn't make the movie confusing for the kiddies. I hope they come out with a sequel soon because it's hard to find an animation movie which has something for the adults as well as the kids.

Budget: $145million.

Worldwide Gross: $273million.

I recommend this movie to people who are into their animation movies about a dog who adopts a boy and they build a time machine so they can go back in time. 6/10.
