Add a CommentDelightfully entertaining and light heartfelt fun, MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN felt like the intellectual's BILL AND TED. Coming from someone who wasn't overly familiar with its ROCKY AND BULLWINKLE origins, I'm glad they did explain themselves at the beginning. It was interesting and definitely informative for kids. My only fault would be that the little girl who Sherman befriends seems to be a bit like a bad seed, rotten to the core, and despite trying to show her changing and growing, she never quite feels like a good person to me. Other than that, loved the film, and sure, I'd recommend it.
This movie does not come up to the standards of the original clips from the Rocky and Bullwinkle show. Besides, nobody should be deluded into thinking that the 'history' depicted in the movie is in any way supposed to represent the facts. A disappointment.
An awesome callback to one's childhood television viewing that anyone can enjoy. Some may even learn something about history. Highly recommended.
