Watch Norm of the North For Free

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

People are voting emotionally.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Studios such as Pixar, Dreamworks Animation, Disney, and every once a while Sony Animation have gone so far to prove they are capable of helming animated flicks to make for a tasty treat for both children and adults alike. Unfortunately, even with a steller cast like Rob Schneider, Heather Graham, and Ken Jeong behind the voices of its colorful characters, this animated comedy can't seem to follow into their footsteps. Norm of The North, another cartoon tackling on ecological themes in the vein of films of 'Happy Feet', is a joyless ride that seems to have nothing offer of a truck load of childish potty jokes and wasted potential on a project that could have amounted to something other than a lazy cash-grab. Although Hollywood has driven far into the age when it is easy to please children of the single- digit category just by making an animated entry and throwing anything that resembles humor, this is one that is aimed squarely at kids and provides zero sense of fun for the adult crowd, even with its intellectual themes on protecting the environment at hand. Directed by Trevor Wall, this film follows Norm (voiced by Rob Schneider), a polar bear living the northern arctic. Arriving on their homeland is greedy real estate broker Mr. Greene (voiced by Ken Jeong) who explores this place and develops a plan on build condos over their land. Alarmed by the threat of losing their home, Norm takes advice from his grandfather (voiced by Colm Meaney) and wise-cracking bird Socrates (voiced by Bill Nighy) to set out to New York City with a trio of lemmings to stop the development. The only person he is able to turn to is no one other than Mr. Greene's representative Vera (voiced by Heather Graham). The computer animation is far from anything special, but that is the very least of the problems circulating this animated rote. For a start, why would anyone want to journey out into the arctic and make build into metropolitan area where there is a lack of good human resources? That place is no place for humans. Ignoring the questionable logic however, the film lacks the fun and excitement that made many animated pictures in the past entertaining hits for both the child and adult crowd. Even when you encounter the voices of actors like Rob Schneider, Heather Graham and Ken Jeong conducting the work behind the characters, you know you are in serious trouble when the best humor the creators can come up with involve a polar bear twerking to music and a trio of lemmings farting and urinating into a fish aquarium. If these the the creators trying to convince us that fart jokes and pee jokes are still funny, they are certainly not doing a stellar job. Arguably the only plus adults can leave with from sitting through this rote is the themes of preserving the environment and protecting your home, although George Miller's 'Happy Feet' executed this theme far more superior. Sitting through this movie, it seems more likely you will find yourself checking your watch more often than getting caught up in the attempts at laughter it tries throwing at you. Like most animated films though, parents should not be too surprised if their child chuckles at least once or twice as it easy to please the youngsters with silly little one-liners and slapstick gags. But for everyone else beyond the elementary-school age, it is almost complete boredom from start to finish. Norm of The North is a charmless animated cash-grab that fails to bring any surprises with its story and overly juvenile humor, and amounts to almost nothing an hour and a half of tedium. There are plenty of animated flicks bound to evoke laughter and excitement in the family of all ages. This movie is not one of them.

this movie is so good my daughter was so mind blown by how amazing this movie is, she actually asked if we could leave early, and it was only 10 minutes in the movie! that just screams amazing! the best part about this film is the lemmings they make the movie 10x BETTER! I just don't understand the negative feedback of this great masterpiece!

Norm of the North is a deep, emotional film, that really stood out to me. From its excellent, coherent story, to its mind boggling-fantastic animation, it is a wonder why anyone can rate this movie anything below a 9.5/10.I give it a 9.7/10, A deep emotional film, that will bring you to tears on your first fourteen viewings. The sooner this is recognized as better than a film such as, Citizen Kane, the sooner we humans will reach our highest intellectual standing. This is Rob signing off.

I watched because looked cute and some reviews said hilarious, 2 kids 12 & 15, wife I never cracked a smile. Seemed like someone thought about how they could cash in on Madagascar & Minions popularity. Plot is very thin and too much doesn't make sense. I like Rob Schneider and Heather Graham but wonder if it is actually the Rob Schneider from SNL. He is funny, his character was not at all. I really wanted to like this but it was pretty lame. I think people rating it so high either have a stake in the movie or a relative. Best part of the movie was the cover.
