Wonderfully offbeat film!

Great Film overall

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Well what go wrong with a film called "The Nut Job"?.Well pretty much everything Is wrong with this, the characters (apart from Andie and Buddy) are so mean-spirited and unlike able, the story is a ripoff of Over the Hedge, the jokes are just nut puns and the humor pretty low brow.Only good thing?, the animation looks pretty decent, It got nice lighting, nice character designs and the backgrounds look pretty good, but yet again, that's the ONLY GOOD THING about this movie.This is not suitable for kids, not suitable for families, It's not suitable for ANYONE.This get a 2/10.

An incorrigibly self-serving exiled squirrel finds himself helping his former park brethren raid a nut store to survive, that is also the front for a human gang's bank robbery. The Nut Job is one of the most underrated animated films of the last couple of years and i don't get it why it got so many bad reviews i seriously laughed threw out the whole thing, the characters were well written and the whole plot although it was recycled from other animated movies of the past it still worked. The voice cast was really good for the most part and i really can't find anything bad about this film it was funny, full of adventure and even sad when it was needed and i'm gonna give it an 10/10.

Honestly this movie was disappointing, especially after all the good things I heard about it. The textures in this movie were so terrible that I couldn't stop getting annoyed watching them. Same jokes, same action. Feels like the whole plot was dull and made up within a lunch break. Characters don't stick and by the end you don't feel very connected to anything. You don't get that feeling of satisfaction or emptiness after a movie ends, no emotions whatsoever, and that to me is a failed movie.For children though, it's alright, but even kids had enough nut jokes in one hour...

In an Oakton city park opposite the bank, Surly the Squirrel (Will Arnett) is an outcast with his rat partner Buddy often stealing nuts from everybody. Raccoon (Liam Neeson) is the manipulating leader of the park and he finds the nut storage at a low. He sends out squirrels Andie (Katherine Heigl) and Grayson (Brendan Fraser) to take from a newly arrived nut vendor cart. Surly refuses to cooperate. The cart vendor turns out to be the lookout for a bank robbery. The stolen cart is launched into the tree burning it down. Surly is banished from the park.Animation has advanced so far that this is really only good for a TV movie on one of those kids channels. The animation is kind of grimy at times but it's good enough for TV. Surly is a rogue character. His sidekick Buddy needs to have a comedic voice. In order to create better group chemistry, he needs to invite Andie to join him in the caper. Also they already broke into the place before which makes breaking in again and again not as interesting. The caper isn't quite as fun as it should be. The start is fine but it gets repetitive. It just gets tiresome and the short running time feels over-extended.
