Plots(1)
When Dan Sanders (Brendan Fraser) uproots his family to the Oregon woods to build an 'eco-friendly' housing development, he thinks his biggest problem will be keeping his family happy. But his job puts him top of the local animals' hit list as the feisty creatures set out to teach Dan that green isn't just the colour of money! (Entertainment One)

The somewhat infantile humor that the story is literally riddled with annoyed me quite a bit at times, but given that this is primarily a family movie, I can understand why the filmmakers resorted to it. Ignoring the horrible digitalization of the animals and the annoyingly goofy Brendan Fraser, the movie at least teaches children in an entertaining way that they should protect nature, even at the expense of their own comfort. Of course, the whole thing could probably have been filmed much better. (40%)

Of the all bad things that have happened to Brendan Fraser, these three are probably the worst: 1) He's got pretty fat; 2) He's stopped being funny; 3) He doesn't know it (well, at least the latter).
