Sorry, this movie sucks

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Blistering performances.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This is the most enticing film I have ever watched. A true master piece displaying the true artistic integrity of film. The underlying themes of a monotheistic society exploring the themes of Christianity and the teachings of the lord. A true masterpiece that really is a work of art and one of the most fabulous film I have ever witnessed. Nicholas Cage has a Masterful performance as Speckles and should have won best supporting actor. This film is ground breaking in the way of unconventional story telling. I love this movie, it cured my depression. Thank you Hoyt Yeatman, beautiful film, 10/10

Oh Disney, what have you done with yourself? The best thing I can say about G-Force is that it appeals to its audience of children--that is, it appeals to kids while offering nothing for anyone else. The soundtrack is essentially comprised of the pop songs of the day, and they often have absolutely nothing to do with the events unfolding on screen. The humor comes straight out of a grade school student's mind (A major joke of the movie is a fat, farting guinea pig). There's very little emotion underlying the story, and no real connection is made to the characters. There is a twist to the story, but it's the kind of Shyamalan-style twist that falls apart under logical inspection and doesn't even fit in. Kids will enjoy it for the cute guinea pigs and bathroom humor, but there's not much for the parents.

OK I am going to pick this apart. The only thing this had going for it was that the guinea pigs were interesting. They were animated OK and you grow fond of them. But here is the problem. The voice overs. Only some of them fit. Penelope Cruz and Tracy Morgan fit for their guinea pig characters and were funny. Steve Buscemi played a hamster and was very funny. Sam Rockwell was the lead guinea pig. I just cannot picture him as a lead for a children movie. Also the last guinea pig was a weakling and a big baby. The voice was Jon Favreau. This made no sense. Then Nicolas Cage showed he has no voice talent and plays a mole. He changes his voice for the role, and it is horrible. The actual live cast was all off also. I just couldn't picture Zach Galifianakis in his role and Will Arnett as a bad guy was a bit off too. I am not sure if they were just taking a chance with this cast, or they couldn't find anyone to go for it. The story wasn't even really that good and what they wanted as a twist ending just twisted your nerves because it was done actually pretty bad. Too bad this movie was not better.

Maybe it's because I'm male and still connected with the child inside, I don't know, but I just like movies made for children. There's something about a simple plot, uncomplicated characters and a happy ending that just appeals to me for some reason. But I digress; we're here to talk about a bunch of CGI rodents.A crack team of specially trained guinea pigs, Darwin, Juarez and Blaster, along with their tech guy, a mole called Speckles are on a mission. They have to infiltrate the home of electronics magnate Leonard Saber and steal secret files from his computer. The files reveal that there is a real threat to national security and the clock is ticking. When they go to show the information to the FBI, things go wrong and it all culminates in the withdrawal of funding for the program. This leaves the head of the program, Ben, a human, trying to persuade the FBI about the treat as the animals escape. They make it to a pet shop where they meet another guinea pig called Hurley and a hamster with an attitude called Bucky. Can the animals escape capture and make it back to Ben in time to save the day? Well, you guessed it; I'm not going to tell you right now.Quite a well made film with some nice CGI creatures. I find that giving human attributes to animals never really works, but it's something Disney has been persisting with for many years. Honourable mentions to the voice talents of Sam Rockwell as Darwin, Jon Favreau as Hurley, Nicolas Cage as Speckles, Penélope Cruz as Juarez, Steve Buscemi as Bucky and Tracy Morgan as Blaster. And the humans, Bill Nighy as Leonard Slater, Will Arnett as Kip Killian, Zach Galifianakis as Ben and Kelli Garner as Marcie.There were one or two good jokes, but not a great deal to make the adult audience laugh. I thought the best scenes were in the pet shop. It's one of those kind of OK films that you could quite happily have on in the background to keep the kids entertained, but not one I'd go out of my way to see again. Over all, not really recommended, but maybe a bargain bin DVD purchase to entertain the youngsters.My score: 5.3/10
