Before they forever alter the past, present and future, Mr. Peabody must come to their rescue, ultimately facing the most daunting challenge of any era: figuring out how to be a parent. Together, the time traveling trio will make their mark on history. (20th Century Fox UK)

There is nothing better than a visually nice, clever animated film with a story that can be both educational and funny with its historical references.

This cartoon is on par with some others, just like Mr. Peabody is compared to some regular dogs. He is more intelligent, has a lot of ideas, he doesn't lack wit or charm, he can impress, he is actionable and touching, and he is suitable for children and adults. Hats off to its creators who have so carefully selected and blended all the ingredients mentioned above. They "made" an impeccable spectacle with everything that it encompasses.

The film is entertaining and has excellently developed characters who maintain their character throughout. I don't like time travel because it is used too often and excessively, but in this execution it was ultimately bearable and fairly functional for the plot, mainly because it didn't delve too deeply into the science. I think this animated film is bearable even for adults. It's like a current family classic where everyone can find something.

Finally an animated movie which has awesome lines, is fun, smart, and not only for the little ones, but adults, too. The feeling might fade away over time. But for now, I liked this more than anything of late, and yes, it’s slightly better than The Lego Movie. PS: Bill Clinton’s best cameo ever.
