Movie Review: "G-Force"

Synopsis: They may look like ordinary guinea pigs...but, the G-Force team is anything but! When they discover that appliance manufacturer Saber is hatching a nefarious plot to take over the world using kitchen appliances, it's up to G-Force to stop him once and for all! They hit a roadblock when the FBI shuts their operation down, and the guinea pigs end up in a pet store.  Will they be able to escape and save the world?

The Good: I love movies like this: live-action, clean-cut, thrill rides.  Though the premise may be silly, the film drew me in, and kept me until the end.  The special effects were outstanding, and the voice work was fabulous, as were the action sequences.  This is the kind of Disney film I enjoy most.

The Bad: Some crude humor was present.  Also, I was disappointed in the ending.

Conclusion: Faithful readers of my reviews know that I have preferred Disney's live-action productions to their animated ones from a young age; see my earlier reviews for more on that story.  So, you'd probably expect that I enjoyed something like this...and I mostly did.  It's not a perfect film, and I don't think I'll watch it again, but, I enjoyed it for what it was.  This is a throwback to the days of old-school escapism, not the gritty realism that we see far too much in media these days.

Score: 4/5
