An absolute waste of money

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Being a movie buff, I thought this might be a fun cartoon, but it wasn't really much. The laughs were few and far between.The "history" begins with cave drawings of some men, and then with their legs moving fast. From there, we go to Fr. Roger Bacon who invents the pinhole camera in the 13th century, only to be banished to hell for his invention. I guess that was supposed to be funny.From there, it's on to France and Lumiere's premiere, and then to Hollywood with westerns as the feature attraction (at least in this cartoon.) The cartoon then takes a cheap shot at censors, followed by talkies, television and its impact in hurting cinema attendance, and then some goofy things about different shapes for TVs and movie screens. Apparently, they were making fun of various widescreen presentations in the theater so decided to exaggerate the point. As I said: this isn't much.
