Flushed Away is a charming film that will certainly entertain children and may even produce a few laughs from the adult crowd as well. When Roddy, a civilized uptown rat, is flushed down the toilet, he finds himself in a sewer adventure as he struggles to find his way home. This movie features a colorful cast with some talented voice actors. The film also features some fun and catchy music. The story is a too strong, but the comedy is. A villainous frog (Ian McKellen) is hoping to make a mess of Roddy's life, along with everyone else in the sewer city including a Rat named Rita (Kate Winslet). Rita befriends Roddy and helps him in his quest for the surface which leads to all kinds of trouble, comedy, and narrow escapes. Although my expectations which have been set somewhat low by most of Dreamworks attempts at animation, Flushed Away surpassed my expectations. Although the film still isn't up to par with Pixar greats, you still should check this one out.Read full review
Saw it with my wife and our eight and four years olds. The kids loved it, and the wife and I got a few smiles from the slugs who serve as sort of a Greek chorus for the action. Expect a short starring them on the DVD, ala the penguins in Madagascar. For the kids the Rube Goldberg inventions in the Rat City and the never really very threatening action sequences worked really well, and the few half-hearted stabs at "grown-up" humor were on the level of grabbing on to something while floating in sewer water that ended up being a candy bar, so no serious danger there. For adults there were some French frogs doing most of the jokes you'd expect, including a Monty Python and some mime bits, but not much. And the voice talent was a little bland considering the cast. The kids were clamoring to see it again immediately, though, and both my eight and four year olds rated Flushed Away as much better than Ice Age and a little better than Cars, though not as good as Monsters Inc. or Nemo. So I guess it must be pretty good.Read full review
Flushed Away is a highly entertaining, humorous movie for all the family. An animated offering from the Dreamworks / Aardman team that brought us Wallace and Gromit; it stands apart from the many other animated films that were brought to use in 2006 - with superb visuals, a captivating plot and a lot of multilevel humor that has something to appeal to all ages! This movie is set in the depths of the London Sewerage system - hardly the setting one would expect for a kids movie - but this segway provides the opportunity for lots of humor that one could expect from this setting - though nothing too offensive - just silly fun! Roddy (played by Hugh jackman who does a very authentic British accent) -is the society mouse who lives in one of the most affluent areas of London - in a palatial cage; he finds his path crossed with Sid the sewer mouse played by British commedian Shane Richie - the perfect authentic Cockney to work this part! Suddenly Roddy is thrust into sewer life leaving all his riches behind - and there begins a funny adventure with many characters that help develop the plot and inject humor...the singing slugs are not to be missed, popping up at every opportune moment to lend us a tune! Roddy meets Rita played by Kate Winslet - and they work together to get him home - but of course there is a twist which leaves Roddy wondering just what to do! This is a fun filled movie, with a perfect run time of a just under 90 minutes! Perfect length to keep the family entertained and the plot engaging! Well worth a look!!Read full review
First things first, the kiddos loved this one. Second things second, this review is mainly from an adult's perspective, as I am mainly an adult. Flushed away is a solid children's movie, with plenty of toilet humor and fart jokes to entertain the kids throughout. It is often a bit lowbrow for the adult of at least average intelligence. The vast majority of the humor is - go figure! - sewer related, or dealing with bodily functions children and the developmentally disabled find humorous. Long story short, though at times cute, this might be one to turn on while you're doing the dishes, or working on that crossword puzzle that's been giving you trouble. You won't miss much - the jokes are telegraphed way ahead of time, and even if you miss a plot point or two, the movie is just as enjoyable. It's cute, but it's not Ice Age or Finding Nemo. The thing is, kids love it, so my rating is very likely low for people with children. I would bump it up to 4/5 if your rugrats are into this kind of humor (and I have yet to meet one that isn't).Read full review
