This movie was hilarious. It has a great cast (Anne Hathaway, Anthony Anderson, Glenn Close, Jim Belushi, Patrick Warburton, and Andy Dick) and the animation is crisp and clean. The humor will have both children and adults laughing their buns off. This is one of the better animated feature films to come out in the last 3 years. Final verdict: 4/5 Rent or Buy?: I rented it and have seen it twice on the movie channel. I'm also 22. If you have children you should buy this film for them, if you don't a rental will do. IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you
My family thought this was a cute movie. We enjoyed the spin on the classic Little Red Riding Hood story. Someone has been stealing all the recipe books in the forest and all the bakeries are shutting down. Red Riding Hood's granny is danger of having her recipe book stolen, too. The adventure brings all the characters together at Granny's house, and the detective hears each version to try to figure out who's the thief. This was the neat part. Going through what each character was doing that day... and how they all played a part in each other's story~ and didn't even realize it! The voices were perfect for each character, lots of big stars! Some of the song bits may have been a little long; but the overall the movie was GREAT and we would definitely watch it again!!Read full review
More about Fletch later, but first let me tell you.... I finally broke down and bought this movie, because we were borrowing it from my parents so much. They are in their late 40's and they love it. We have two toddlers and they both love it. My husband doesn't care much for animated movies, but he is actually the one that asked me to buy it!! This movie is loosely based on the fairy tale Red Riding Hood as you probably already know. The all star voice cast includes - Andy Dick, Anne Hathaway, David Ogden Stiers, Glenn Close, Jim Belushi, Patrick Warburton, & Xzibit. What I haven't seen in any reviews, is the fact that it is so far from the expected, you actually should watch it twice to let it all sink in. I must admit, the first time I watched it, I wasn't too hot on it. Then we watched it again and I started to spot all the little details and one liners. (HINT: Turning the subtitles on while watching brings deeper enjoyment as you can hardly understand the chipmunk. Plus you catch more of the jokes.) The wolf by far is my favorite character. He is based on Chevy Chase's character Fletch. He is an investigative reporter that is trying to crack the case of the goody bandit and is forever being mis-understood and suspected. His squirrel sidekick, Twitchy, is a crack up. Together they help crack the case at the end. In the meantime, watch for many "Fletch" references, everything from an afro haired basketball player in a purple and yellow jersey (sound familiar?) to a guy in disguise that can't stop talking and won't give the same last name when asked. My favorite line from the wolf is, "As God as my witness, you will learn to speak." Watch for it in the movie when he is talking with Twitchy. Some other great scenes are when the always prepared, singing mountain goat "does not feel prepared", when Granny's secret, double life is exposed, the slow motion snowboarding fight scene, and the famous Schnitzel Song sung by all the little German children and the schnitzel-on-a-stick truck driver, "Kirk the Woodsman", also an avid endorser of Paul's Bunion Foot Cream, it sends Bunion's running for the hills. Plus many others. All in all, a must have for your collection. 5 out of 5 stars. I really hope they make over more fairy tales in this fashion. Great stuff. Please vote YES for this review if it was helpful or entertaining, even if only a little! Thanks!Read full review
Hoodwinked is loosely based on the Classic story - Little Red Riding Hood, though for us, the original in its short simple rendition, is the better of the two. I got the impression that the producers of this tried to run with the classic story then quickly ran out of original ideas, or ways to expand upon the initial tale and hence we get a movie that simple drags!! The premise of the movie sounds good - take an all star cast including Anne hathaway, Glenn Close and James Belushi, and a much loved tale...and tell the whole story, putting across everyone's arguments from Red Riding Hood, to Granny down to the Wolf...plus add a little mystery to the case...in this case a their who is stealing recipes from the townsfolk and disrupting their business which gives the movie more material to work with. However, this still fails to work....scenes are repetitive, our toddler and older cousin quickly lost interest...the same toddler who will sit through more compex movies such as Harry Potter - was bored and ; and frankly I see why!! There is no real plot...or at least not enough to last the 80 minute run time. The characters are not appealing and fail to draw the viewer into the story and pfr us, we could not care less who was the villain...we just wanted this to end! For me, this and Doogal tie as the most unappealing, unimaginative childrens movies of the year!! An 80 minute bore!Read full review
My wife and I bought this movie for a retarted person with the mind of a five year-old. Then we watched it in view of that mind. The PG rating is fitting. We had watched it before and we both loved it. But when we watched it again thinking through the eyes of a five year-old, we definitely had second thoughts. Some scenes probably may be downright scary for a five year-old. Furthermore, there are four versions of the plot to follow. That wouldn't be very hard for a teenager or preteen with a few friends with whom he or she shares diverse points of view. But for a young child, some scenes could concievably cause nightmares. On the other hand, those familiar with the original tale, will likely be delightedly bemused and amused with this movie.
