How embarrassing, I love this movie
12 January 2012
Well I'm glad this review allows for some level of anonymity, because what comes next could get me cast in one of those unmanly beer commercials. As the Dad of two, I've probably been forced to watch ~100 animated films. The BLT is without question in my top 5… and the same goes for my kids, who wanted to watch it over and over again. Yes, the title and premise are silly enough, but what's really wimpy is how emotionally attached you become with the characters. In the classic mold of "The Wizard of Oz" and "The Incredible Journey", this band of vulnerable underdogs is determined to reach their destination, and have to overcome all kinds of obstacles. I think it's an especially great move for little ones, with just the right amount of drama and suspense… though some parts might be a little scary for the overly sensitive. The music is really catchy also, and unfortunately, have found myself singing it in business meetings, lunches and while hanging out with friends in the man cave; NOT GOOD!
