I can't say the name of the movie "Rango" without thinking of Scooby Doo. The way he mispronounces most words by making them start with an "R"...I can't help but wonder if he named the movie and it should actually be pronounced "Tango".
We went to a movie this weekend, and my son was given the choice between Gnomeo and Juliet and Rango, and he went with Rango. It wasn't awful, but I can't help but wonder if we would have been better off with Gnomeo and Juliet.
First of all, I'm not a big Johnny Depp fan. Particularly when it comes to children's films. His versions of Willy Wonka and Alice in Wonderland creep me out.
Rango did not creep me out, but it was definitely a little more raw than it had to be. To quote my husband, "Could they possibly have used the word 'hell' any more times?" It was unnecessary. Also, their use of the word "damn". Most recent animated films have managed to not use even mild obscenities.
There is almost always adult humor in animated films, and normally it goes undetected by kids and is fun for the adults. The humor in this one didn't amuse me much. Rango had a "friend" which was the top half of a naked barbie doll. In a conversation with said friend, he asks "Are those real?".
The best parts were a foursome of singing owls (But that, too was ruined when they showed them all hanging from nooses while they sang about someone who was supposed to die. Poor taste.) and a wise armadillo.
If your child really wants to see it, I guess go for it, but if you can convince your child to see Gnomeo and Juliet instead, that might be a better idea.

I have enjoyed reading. .Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic.
The topic that your blog deals with demands lots of research. Thanks to you who has provided the intricate information in simple words.
Alice in Wonderful is a good movie but I don't think it's for the very young audience. Johnny Debb was good but I found his character very creepy!
Having read this material, I have learned for myself a lot of the new. Thanks
We saw Rango, too, and i was disappointed. I don't really care for Johnny Depp much, but the kids wanted to see it. All through the movie, I found myself closing my eyes *just for a moment* and then I even did the "head bob" thing where you almost fall asleep and startle yourself awake. I totally agree with your synopsis of the movie and wish we, too, had seen Gnomeo and Juliet :) take care!
Well not much laughter. Moans and sobs of pre-teen fright whenever Rattlesnake Jake slithered into view, threatening murder
Very good service, very convenient to work, thank you. "Very useful and nice site! "
