This has a great cast and there are things you can do using this animation technique that you couldn't do with just a regular film, BUT...there is just too much that is overdone here and it distracts from the story. The special effects just call attention to themselves rather than being a seamless part of the story. That--and using Jim Carrey's considerable talents--seems to have been the reason for making the film. If it distracts anyone from watching the less flashy, more heartfelt, far superior George C. Scott version, it would be a shame. ( ) no reviews | add a review
