| Meet the Robinsons : 3 of 5 | |

 I'm glad that my local theater is equipped to show Disney's recent 3D movies, since my pal Melinda and I have enjoyed going to see all of them. I think Meet the Robinsons has taken advantage of the 3D process the most so far - many of these scenes were definitely designed with 3D in mind, so much so that it will be interesting to see how it looks on DVD. This is the only Disney animated feature with a good ol' science fiction time travel paradox, which seems a little crazy for young audiences to grasp, but then again, all of the characters are crazy, too! In fact, Meet the Robinsons feels like a bunch of funny, talented storytellers got in a room and threw out every gag they could think of, and then they managed to put them all into the same movie! The story starts out nicely, covering Lewis' childhood situation, but after Wilbur takes him forward in time, it starts to feel really off-course. Thankfully, things definitely come together at the end and there are some great emotional moments wrapped up in a nice quote by Walt Disney (which seems like something John Lassater may have contributed to the film). On the positive side, the animation looks really cool, and I love the extreme character designs. I also laughed a lot, and I appreciated that the jokes had a much less contemporary edge than your average DreamWorks movie. I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the movie experience, but I'm still longing for Disney to bring back some real magic (and I'm confident they will)!
