Enter director Gore Verbinski. Verbinski has directed a family movie before, with the massively underrated Mouse Hunt a real delight. He's best known, of course, for helming the first three Pirates Of The Caribbean movies. Yet, for my money, Rango is the best thing he's done to date.
For what he brings to the movie is a live action eye. There's never a feeling that the movie started as an animated film, rather a film to which animation proved best suited.
Verbinski controls every millimetre of his frame, injecting lavish detail where appropriate (backed by the wizardry of ILM, for whom Rango is its first full-length animated feature), and calling on the skills of Roger Deakins (as Wall-E did) to ensure the visual look of the movie is exceptionally striking. The result is a film that's brilliant to just look at, and one that takes advantage of the camera flexibility that animation offers. And not just for the sake of showing off.
But there's more. Verbinski co-wrote the story, too (with John Logan penning the screenplay), and it has tips of the hat that might just send your geeky goosebumps off the chart. So, a breathtaking aerial action sequence is played out, Apocalypse Now-style, to Wagner's Ride Of The Valkyries. There's a campfire with the beans being passed around, a la Blazing Saddles. You'll get tinges of Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas. Of umpteen westerns. Of The Lion King, even. And it's topped off with a stand-up-and-applaud moment where we get to meet the character whom Timothy Olyphant is voicing.
At its best, it's arguably as ambitious as anything even Pixar has put on the screen.
There are, nonetheless, small considerations that may hold the film back in some people's eyes. The pacing might not suit all. Particularly young audience members may (and I stress only may') find some moments a little too much, and in other places, there's plenty that will go over their heads. And, if you really, really hate westerns, then you may find a reason to dislike this..Netwebsite.In Is A Free Movies Website Where You Can Watch Full Movie Free. To View The Full HD Click Here
