Ribbit

This is a cute charming emotional animated film with positive messages about friendship, heroism, saving the endangerd species, and being different is the best (if you should them what you are made of). The friendship between ribbit and sandy is handled very well just like real life friends, very authentic, & feels realistic, so you can relate to those main characters. The voice cast is absolutley wonderful & so is the voice acting, but some of the accents are not a perfect fit for the location (the Amazon Rainforest), Australian,german,indian,& French. There are moments where the characters say words that are not real words, 2 moments of the dialogue said from sandy does not make sense & needs to be fixed. Also the bat is a somwhat unlikable character because he is a slow thinker & he makes characters fools of themselves to believe him, & Terrance the toucan voiced by Tim Curry has a laugh that might be poorly directed. The animation went from very nice to top-notch. The music score reflects the mood & narration, & focuses on the mood & narration perfectly. The music score also has full of life. Somtimes a movie with 2 heros & 2 villains heighten's up the good vs evil scale, & it works well. Ribbit the poison dart frog & Sandy the flying squirrel. The Witch Doctor & Kai the Caiman. The story/plot of the movie is good at best because it is very simple to follow (all you have to do is know what the movie is about), & also the story brings in a message about...well, you already know. So the plot of the film makes sense, & it works. Overall: a family film recomended for families and animal lovers. This film is suitable/appropriate/O.K for kids 6 and up.
