Movie #2176 ........................"Turbo" (DVD)

 Movie #2176 "Turbo" (animated, DVD)   - I had a bunch of animated films that I hadn't seen, so we watched several of them with the kids we had over.  The first was "Turbo" with Ryan Renolds --- which should be a selling feature to me, since I love everything he does, usually.   I must mention that I am not a crazy fan of animation --- never watched cartoons when I was a little kid, and the stuff I like or expect in good animation is a good story, competent voices,  entertaining to adults and kids, and a good strong theme.  So if I judged this one, I'd say it has most of those things, but it just was too long for me.  It sustained my interest for about an hour, but that was it.  I think where it lost me was the actual race, because just going around and around and around in a race seems very boring to watch.  I guess that was my only complaint for this one --- it just never pulled me in to care about the story.  I'd rate it 3.5 out of 5

PS -- a kid, esp. one who liked "Cars,"  would probably enjoy this film a lot!  lots of action and noise.
