Flushed Away

We rented this for the kids and I was not looking forward to it. Flushed Away sounds appropriate for a sorry cartoon movie. If it had been up to me alone we never would have rented it.
That said Flushed Away completely surprised us. It was a fun movie for the kids and the adults. The last cartoon that impressed us both was the Incredibles.
It was amusing and clever. The French frogs were hilarious, the sewer rats were actually endearing.

The biggest surprise was Huge Jackman, this man has wide range of talent. Boy can he sing! The slugs are not too bad either ;)

The ending has nice little twist and the humor stays pretty clean. Surprising since all of the action takes place in the sewers.
Good movie and fun for the kids, we will be picking it up for them soon on DVD.

I've heard a couple of other people tell me this. I'm almost tempted to rent it, but Mrs. Kristatos is dead set against.

Is that a bald spot on your head there Kris?
Rent it on a friday night...bring home some choclates and a bottle of wine and if she still isn't into the idea...watch it by yourself. :wink:
