Review of The Peanuts Movie (2015) by Carl G — 13 Dec 2015
Does The Peanuts Movie break new ground? No, not really. Does it seem as if you've seen all the plot points before(ESPECIALLY if you've read the comic strips)? Yes. That said, there are worse ways to spend 90 minutes or so of your life.
The Peanuts Movie, thankfully, does not besmirch the wonderful memories we likely all have of the characters and the strips(and credit must be given to Charles Schulz' son and grandson who helped write the script).
However, I'm not sure why they felt it was necessary to include 3D...it adds very little, if anything, to the whole experience. Consider this movie as the equivalent of Linus' blanket...comforting, but too formulaic.
