After seeing the first trailer of this cgi animated movie, I didn'treally have a big hype for it nor did I know what the movie is about.After watching it, I can safely say it really did not meet myexpectations. Now I know what style and direction it was trying to gobut overall it just wasn't all that effective. The movie also seems tobe all over the place sometimes and not in a good way either. Therejust wasn't the development to care what goes on all that much, I justdidn't care for any of the characters in this movie and what happens tothem. And like I said I didn't know much about this movie and didn'texpect it to be a wacky CGI animated western or a semi-western moviefor kids and adults. I will say the movie did have it's momentsalthough I never heard the word "water" so many times in a moviebefore. And the CGI animation is spectacular and amazing to watch, thequality of the CGI animation really is top notch in this. The voiceactors did a really good job as well, didn't expect much from JohnnyDepp in this but he pulled it off really well. Bill Nighy did a goodjob as Rattlesnake Jake the antagonist as well and really stood out.Overall the animation is solid and very detailed, it was truly amazingto see the CGI animation on the big screen but as for the direction andstory. I could tell what what it was trying to do but wasn't fullyeffective.
