Rango [2011]

Genre: Animation, Adventure, Comedy, Family, Western


About:
Rango is an ordinary chameleon who accidentally winds up in the town of Dirt, a lawless outpost in the Wild West in desperate need of a new sheriff.


I love it. I've read a review and I totlly agree about this one:This movie is insane! I read a lot of negative reviews here, and all of them had one common factor: children. Of course it's not meant for your 4 year old kid, It's a Gore Verbinski movie. This guy made The Ring and Pirates of Caribbean, none of them had any child-safe approach about them. if you want to make your children happy, go and watch Mars need Mom or something.

Ranting aside, this movie is one hell of fun journey and a feast for eyes. No 3d, shining bright colors, A good script that gives space to each and every character, strange and beautiful landscapes; the list is quite endless. It also happens to be quite post modern in it's approach. I couldn't believe what I was watching on screen. You definitely will long for a second watch.

in movie Things were not shiny and tidy. It was full of grime, the characters experienced real helplessness and despair; you could feel for them. That's a big achievement for an animation movie.

This is one Yugoslavian horror film. Translate of the title can be "The She-Butterfly". Movie is great. I mean, for the time it's filmed, it's really good. Most of people won't like it because of bad camera, bad special effects, but that's why back then, there weren't any good. So, if you can enjoy old, good movies, just watch this one.
