A fine kids film about talking duckies
Migration by Benjamin Renner is a cute movie, but it is nothing to ride home about. There were some fun performances by Danny DeVito and Elizabeth Banks, but other than that it is just your typical illumination film playing it safe as possible so they can appeal to the widest demographic. The pacing of this movie was off to me, it felt so short, only clocking in at 83 minutes. The animation is cool, but it just another CGI animated film which we have seen for a decade. I don't know, it just seems by the numbers to me. I just wish they had tried to make this film more unique instead of mashing up scenarios, like how a toddler would smash blocks to see what fits. - jeromesgabilo - 23 May 2024
MEDIOCRE BUT ENTERTAINING ENOUGH
This animation film was such a mid, but I really enjoyed watching it because it felt like a classic film to watch with kids and the whole family. The animation effects and vibes were one of the flawless I've watched this year. The voice dubbings were decent as well, although I really hoped that these types of animated flicks were a bit longer and deeper in plot and storyline. It could have been more enjoyable to watch if the settings were a bit more different from what was expected. Even though this film still delivered, I think it lacks a certain charm that would attract more audience and makes it more watchable on repeat. - gsilecchia - 21 April 2024
