Truly Dreadful Film
So much average
Really Surprised!
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Turbo is a 2013 American 3D computer-animated comedy sports film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by 20th Century Fox. It is based on an original idea by David Soren, who also directed the film.In a suburban San Fernando Valley garden in Los Angeles,[12] Theo, a.k.a. Turbo, is a snail who dreams of being the greatest racer in the world, just like his hero, 5-time Indianapolis 500 champ, Guy Gagné. His obsession with speed and all things fast has made him an outcast in the slow and cautious snail community, and a constant embarrassment to his older brother, Chet. Turbo desperately wishes he could escape the slow-paced life he's living....Demoralized, Theo wanders onto a freeway to admire the traffic and wishes he was fast on the first star (which is actually an airplane light). Suddenly, he gets into a freak accident when he gets sucked into the supercharger of a drag racer, fusing his DNA with nitrous oxide. The next day, when Theo wakes up, the incident finds himself vested with incredible speed and accuracy, as well as some characteristics of an actual car.
This film has some great qualities and I think it is very rare that you get to see an animation or film about snails, well maybe on Nature Channel.This is a very colorful movie, the characters and the scenes are very vivid, the settings make it all believable and it doesn't seem strange that a snail can compete in a car race :)The whole family enjoyed this one, beautifully made, great characters, lots of comedy for both the young and the older viewers. It has some flares, but Turbo is a very likable character and humble you can't help rooting for him all the way to the finish line.
Turbo - a speed-obsessed snail - dreams of becoming an Indy 500 champion. After he and his brother, Chet (voiced by Paul Giamatti), are fired from their garden jobs, Turbo (voiced by Ryan Reynolds) is involved in a freak accident when he's accidentally sucked into the engine of a street racing car. It's during this he is infused with nitrous oxide - a substance that is able to give super-speed. When he happens upon Tito (voiced by Michael Peña), a mere taco cook who's always on the look-out for the next big thing, he's entered into the world of snail racing. It's here that he meets a hip street-wise snail crew and along with their help and Tito, Turbo's dream of entering the Indy 500 may well become a reality after all.Turbo is a fantastic movie from the studios of DreamWorks Animation, the company that gave us the likes of Shrek and Madagascar. They may not have the reputation of Disney/Pixar, but they have definitely delivered a great film with Turbo.The movie does actually start off pretty slowish, and it gets to a point where you wonder if it will ever really pick up. Thankfully, it does, and it gets much better as it goes on, obviously building up more & more to the big race for the end scenes.Turbo is a bright, colourful, fast-paced movie with excellent animation, especially on Blu-ray with everything being so beautifully crisp & clear. I also loved the soundtrack for the movie as well and the songs used for the different scenes really added to the overall feel for the film.While this may not be one of the funniest animations out there it's still a pretty humorous film and the comedy moments aren't just two or three big moments either. They come in smaller but much more frequent instances and it's these instances that keeps the humour in the film going and ticking along nicely.Overall, Turbo is definitely a great movie to watch and will be enjoyed by adults and kids alike. Very much recommended.
This movie is not good, not good at all. There is much better family entertainment than this. It has nice visuals, but the positives stop there. First off, I think this premise is really stupid. It's about a snail who can go 230 MPH. That's really stupid, in my opinion. Next it's a little too predictable for my tastes. I was able to guess exactly what was going to happen in every scene and it made me feel like I'd already seen the movie. Lastly, the side characters in this movie are amazingly annoying. I wanted the the snail characters to get stepped on the entire movie and I wanted the stereotypical human characters to get a good punch in the face. 4/10, would not recommend.
