Movie Reviews of G-Force (Two Disc DVD + Digital Copy)

Movie Review: Great movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

Okay,

I admit it. I'm a sucker for the CGI genre of animation. But even if I weren't, I'd recommend buying G-Force, strongly! This is one of those wonderful action/adventure/buddy films that we constantly see, except it's main stars are CG guinea pigs. And you know what? It's hard to tell that the animal actors aren't real animals to which some CG artist has applied facial expressions. In fact, in the scenes involving real dogs and CG animal actors, the average viewer would be hard-put to determine which is which.

And the plot is nice as well. We've got five team members, a vole, three guinea pigs and a fly, who ACT as a team - complete with banter, friendship, competition and individual personalities - who find themselves cut loose from their support systems even as they realize that there's a plot to (Well, no need to give away the story here, am I right?)... Along the way, they face tragedy, adversity and plenty of non-stop action.

Yes, I would recommend this film for anyone's home library.

Summary of G-Force (Two Disc DVD + Digital Copy)

Buckle up for thrilling edge-of-your-seat action and laugh-out-loud fun in Disney?s family comedy adventure G-Force. Just as the G-Force ? an elite team of highly trained guinea pigs ? is about to save the world, the F.B.I. shuts the secret unit down. But these next-generation action heroes ? Darwin, loyal team leader; Blaster, weapons expert with attitude to spare; Juarez, drop-dead gorgeous martial arts diva; and tag-along Hurley ? won?t be stopped. Armed with the latest in high-tech spy equipment, and with the F.B.I. on their tails, the fur flies as they race against the clock to save the world. From the producer of the Pirates Of The Caribbean trilogy and National Treasure, and filled with high-octane action, daredevil stunts, cutting-edge special effects and outrageous comedy, G-Force is fantastic fun for the whole family.
G-Force just might be the best Jerry Bruckheimer action film in many a moon. The film is exuberant, and its premise--don't think big for an animated caper film, think small--brilliantly upends the more-bigger-faster trope of American action films? with cute, little, furry guinea pigs.

Bruckheimer, the action genius behind the likes of the Pirates of the Caribbean, Con Air, The Rock, Armageddon, and many more, here teams with visual effects maestro Hoyt Yeatman, who writes and directs. The combo is potent, and the fact that they streamed their blow-'em-up vision through a film about tiny rodents saving the world makes the whole confection a hilarious family-friendly experience as well as a satisfying action adventure. The premise isn't earth-shattering: oddball, unexpected heroes are called on to save the day (Men in Black, Underdog, etc.). But the lowly guinea pig has been long overdue to get its moment in the spotlight. And now the free world knows whom it can really trust. The film mixes the animated heroes with real-life actors, including the sardonic British character actor Bill Nighy, who plays an evil mogul out to take over and/or destroy the world. The U.S. government, it turns out, has been nurturing a special squad for occasions just such as this. It's just that it's been nurturing them in small pens with wood shavings on the floor and running wheels for exercise. Will Arnett, deadpan and spot-on, plays the human agent who has the unenviable task of wrangling the guinea pig G-Force, and is a deft foil for the bad guys as well as for the mini-heroes.

But the true powerhouse acting belongs to those giving voices to the guinea pig agents, including Sam Rockwell, Penélope Cruz, Steve Buscemi, and, as the voice of a domesticated layabout, Jon Favreau. The film's standout, though, is Tracy Morgan, whose Agent Blaster is bellicose, fearless, and as full of malapropisms as Morgan's character on 30 Rock. (In fact, the viewer keeps half-expecting Blaster to turn to Cruz's female agent, Juarez, and yell "Liz Lemon!") G-Force is full of belly laughs for kids, as well as their action-film-fan parents. --A.T. Hurley
