Andy had to do a CineCheck at the Odeon theatre in Stoke this weekend, so I decided to go with him. He got to see the movie for free but I had to pay.
It was Shark Tale, an animated comedy that pokes fun at the mafia movies (Godfather, Goodfellas, Untouchables etc.) and we both really enjoyed it!
As with most American comedies, I was the only one laughing in the theatre at certain points (they really spoofed a lot of things -- my favourite was how they gave the shark that Robert DeNiro voiced a mole on his right cheek!! Too funny).
As with all silly comedies though-- you have to be the right combination of relaxed, giggly, and in the mood for a comedy. Otherwise you wouldn't enjoy this movie. It was definitely in the "leave your brain at home" category. But as I said, we both laughed a lot and came out of the theatre giggling about it. And it's the first film I've been to in a long time where people have actually clapped for the film at the end when the credits roll.
