Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

Mihai Toma Theo is an average garden snail but unlike his buddies who make fun of him all the time, he has big dreams of overcoming his condition and become a racer. As unlikely as it sounds, after an accident where he gets infected with nitrous oxide, he gains some very special powers, car powers that is: lights, radio, reverse beeps, the lot, but above all, SPEED! And what is he going to do with it you might ask...well, race of course, but not just anywhere, no sir, in the Indy 500!!! With the help of his new snail and human crew, he's going to give his best shot to win the most prestigious race of all.It's an intriguing story, although a bit over-exaggerated (even for animation standards), which features the great adventures of Turbo, the racing snail, from his humble but harsh beginnings till the moments he truly becomes famous, thus fulfilling his lifetime dream. I truly love this film's animation and its style, not to mention its great music, but its story isn't going to blow your mind, not even close. It's a very good movie but it is certainly left behind by masterpieces like Cars, Brave and others.

adonis98-743-186503 A freak accident might just help an everyday garden snail achieve his biggest dream: winning the Indy 500. I haven't seen Turbo since 2013 and my god the film holds well. The voice acting is great, the soundtrack is amazing especially the slow motion sequence with Turbo getting threw a wheel and 'Eye of the Tiger' playing in the background is simply spectacular. The film packs some great comedic moments and dramatic moments too, it's suspenseful during the final minutes of the race and it has great animation and messages for kids such as believing in your dreams and friendship. Not everyone will enjoy 'Turbo' but if you give it a fair and share chance it won't disappoint you also a sequel wouldn't be a bad idea honestly.

morrison-dylan-fan Whilst being well aware of their major franchises,I've been meaning to catch up on the individual films from Dreamworks. After being delighted by the off-beat charms of Mr. Peabody & Sherman,I raced down to Turbo.The plot:Dreaming of being the greatest racer in the world like multiple Indianapolis 500 champ, Guy Gagné,Theo has one problem:he is a snail. Sliding down a road dreaming of being in a race car,Theo gets caught in an accident involving a supercharger drag racer. Barely surviving,Theo discovers that his DNA has been fused with nitrous oxide,which allows Theo to match the speed of any race car. Outrunning any snail in his path,Theo starts to dream of being the first snail to contest the Indianapolis 500.View on the film:Whirling round the screen in a haze of bright colours,co- writer/(along with Darren Lemke & Robert D. Siegel) director David Soren gives the characters a bold,building blocks-style design,which whilst firing up the primary colours does leave to the characters only being able to express a limited amount of facial expressions,that ends up causing the snails and the humans to have a plastic appearance. Clearly enjoying the sight of Theo on the race tracks, Soren gives the Sports Drama rush a surprising level of stylisation . Breaking out of the shell,Soren follows Theo round the track in extensive tracking shots which display a great eye for tight cornered locations.Making the snail stand out in the pack,the screenplay by Lemke/ Siegel and Soren set the track out with a playful Adventure Comedy,where Theo's sports dreams are slugged by the daily life of a snail. Whirling into Sports movie mode,the writers crack an excellent level of tension by making Theo drive for his dream one that drives a wedge between his friends. Joined by lively vocal performances from Michelle Rodriguez, Samuel (Yel)L. Jackson and Paul Giamatti, Ryan Reynolds gives a terrific performance as Theo,thanks to Reynolds keeping Theo's doubt intact,whilst keeping his excitement turbo-charged.

pearlksp Why would no alarm bells go off for the production people of how they are presenting people to little kids? Mexicans boiled down to unsuccessful taco entrepreneurs? The black snail being some sort of hip hop tough guy who thinks he's fast but is slow? Snails are hermaphrodites. Even in this case the primary players are portrayed as male. Male factory leader. Male head speaker. Male main character. Male human characters. Male hero for the snail. Have females again been zipped off the planet again? Allegorical sure, but here's a female. Flirty lipstick snail as girl in a gang. Such opportunities lost.And the world is a big bad world where danger is everywhere. Everyone mocks the hero and continually colleagues die and they collectively shrug. Bird and big are killed for humour I presume. Really? This is the best they could do with the imaginations of themselves and their audience?
