GamerTab That was an excellent one.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
asdfsddg Watched this last night, wasn't expecting much but to my surprise it catches your attention after sometime with it's great adventures of time travelling and little bumps of comedy. Have complete set of emotional values that every Father and Son should have. A good family time movie, worth your time and also gives you some history lessons that's keep you interested.
terrigunmor Mr. Peabody and Sherman are two characters from the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. The show was a modest hit, and lasted from 1959 to 1964. So many years after the show's cancellation, people went on to make films based on the series. These are Boris and Natasha (1992), Dudley Do- Right (1999), The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000), and then Mr. Peabody and Sherman (2014). Sadly, none of these films were successful in the box office. And although Mr. Peabody and Sherman made more money than its budget, the film still created losses for the filmmakers. It's kinda hard to believe how a TV series can become successful but its film adaptations don't do so well in theaters. Perhaps ever since the show got cancelled in 1964, things about it pretty much disappeared from people's minds. And perhaps reception of the show would have a been a lot better had the studio people picked a boy to be that flying grey critter.
christophermathai I have decided to watch and review the movie, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, I will know summarize the movie without spoiling the movie. The movie starts when Mr. Peabody ( a dog) shows that he is different than most dogs. He also talks about how he adopted a little boy who is now seven named Sherman. Because, of Peabody's intelligence, he has won a Nobel Prize award and even has a penthouse in New York where he raises Sherman. Mr. Peabody's most important invention is the Wayback, a time machine that he keeps hidden. He uses the time machine to teach Sherman about different periods of history. One day on a school day, Sherman's class is learning about George Washington. When a girl named Penny, tries to answer a question, Sherman contradicts the idea and argued against it. The is argument becomes a fight where Penny mocks Sherman for being a dog. It was told that Sherman bit Penny. Peabody is brought to a counselor who says that she will inspect his lifestyle to see if he is a good parent. One night, Penny and her parents come to Mr. Peabody's house. Mr. Peabody impresses Penny's parents which his skill, while Sherman shows Penny the Wayback.I will now make analysis of the Mr. Peabody and share my opinion. I believe that the movie tried well to show different points of history, but it didn't fulfill its promise. I believe that it should have more accurately expressed the events, but I admit I liked the choice in each of the events. I believe that this movie expressed a lot of equality, stating how if a human can own a dog, a dog should be able to own a human. It also showed the effects of persuasion when Sherman would want to do everything Penny told him to do. Since I have been to few of the places in the movie such as Florence, I enjoyed the settings in the movie and almost remembering it to be just like it was in the movie. If I were to grade this movie on a scale to 1 to 10, I would give it a seven. I believe that this movie won't become a classic, but it is better than most animated movies these days.
S.R. Hunt I'll be honest, I never watched the "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" cartoon growing up. I mean, I might have, but I don't remember. Anyway, I decided to watch the new movie not to long ago, since I love time travel stories. And... I'm very mixed about this movie. On one hand, I like what (I think) they did with Mr. Peabody. I get this vibe that Peabody being told he can't be a good father because he's a dog is a metaphor for LBGT people being told that they can't be good parents because they're gay. I don't know anyone raised by LBGT parents, but I'm not against it. Also, Peabody is a very interesting character. I like the jokes surrounding each era they travel to. And, Mel Brooks cameo, you can't go wrong with that. But on the other hand, I really really REALLY hate Penny. This b**** just p***** me off. She is just so mean to Sherman, that I wish she had her hand stabbed in Egypt. I hoped they would drop her off in the Jurassic era, I hate her that much. And my other problem is, why doesn't Peabody just home school Sherman? He's pretty much the smartest thing in the world, so why doesn't he just teach Sherman himself? Anyway, I'm very meh about this movie. There are a lot of things I liked, but there are just as many things that I hated. But I will give it this, it is one of the best movies based on a cartoon in recent history. If you like the original cartoon, then you might like this. If you're like me, then you can watch it once and call it good.
