An average movie

I already saw this movie but, since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out again. To be honest, I wonder why I thought it would be a good idea to watch it again since I didn't like it at all the first time around. And, indeed, the damned thing turned out to be just as lame as I remembered. Sure,ย 
I will have to admit that DreamWorks has been quite productive through the years with their CGI animated features and, as a result, they have become one of the leaders in this fairly competitive market. Unfortunately, they often come up with some rather weak concepts and this movie was unfortunately a good example. Indeed, to make a movie about snails was not really the most inspired idea and, to make things worse, they made this snail fall into some nitro juice to gain some super speed power. I mean, who gave the greenlight for such a stupid idea?!? Eventually, it did feel like a mix of 'Cars' (already one of the weakest movies delivered by Pixar) with 'Ratatouille' (at least, a decent Pixar production). To be honest, not only it was ludicrous but, above all, it was just rather boring. At least, I have to admit that the animation was decent, I wouldn't expect less from these guys, and the damned thing must have been entertaining for the young kids but it was certainly not enough for me. For Ryan Reynolds, it was yet another flop at the box-office and the guy got really lucky that 'Deadpool' managed to salvage what was left of his career. Anyway, to conclude, even though I have seen worse, even from DreamWorks animation, I still didn't care much about the damned thing and I don't think it is really worth a look.
