Okay, I should start with a disclaimer. I have a very limited tolerance for animation, and this is going to color my review of this film. My wife, who has a higher tolerance, enjoyed Rango – she should probably review it. But alas, we’re stuck with me.

I enjoyed it too, sort of. It has some entertaining moments in the beginning when he shows up in the town and starts to interact with the town-folk. But after that the film degenerates into the usual schlock-fest, with outrageous chase scenes that go on forever, a political statement (of sorts) about modernity, a cheesy love story, a cardboard villain with a husky voice, you know, all the usual shit that is in every animated feature that is made these days. It was a lot better than Toy Story 3, that much is for sure. But in the end, it’s just more animation. If you like modern animation, you’ll probably like this. If you’re like me, you won’t be missing much if you decide to skip it.
