Robots
I liked just about everything about this movie. It's a pleasure just to look at it, and there's a Rube Goldberg nuttiness to the whole thing that I really enjoyed. The transportation system in Robot City is worth the whole price of admission.
The plot (young robot goes to big city to follow his dream, encounters real problems) is just an excuse for plenty of slapstick, with all kinds of joking references to other movies thrown in. There's so much going on all the time that you'd probably have to watch the movie several times just to catch half of the stuff that's being tossed out there.
And I'm always amazed at how good the acting in some animated movies is. I don't mean just the voices (and this one has an amazing cast in that regard), but the facial expression and body language of the animated stars.
You can watch Robots and feel good for a long time afterward. Check it out, if you haven't already.
