Review
This children's comedy is loaded with star voices. There is a certain level of fun trying to guess who voices which character, with a few obvious ones. The best performance was Hank Azaria for his role as Gargamel. He was perfect for that role. This has gotten good feedback from children which is good since it should be the target audience, but it also a good movie to adults. Especially, adults who grew up watching the cartoons. As far as children go, the ratings would probably be higher if only reviewed by kids. Taking into account that adults are going to watch this too, it probably not rated as highly as it could be rated. It is good movie for the kids, with enough humor that the adults won't hate the movie. That being said, if there are no children or you did not grow up enjoying the cartoons, pick an alternative movie, because the movie is geared more toward children. There are probably more choices available that would be better use of your time, if you choose to use that time watching a movie.
