HOP - April 1, 2011

Hop tells the comic tale of Fred (James Marsden), an out-of-work slacker who accidentally injures the Easter Bunny (voiced by Russell Brand) and must take him in as he recovers. As Fred struggles with the world's worst houseguest, both will learn what it takes to finally grow up.

I SAID -This one was soooo awesome, even better than Mars Needs Moms.  My favorite

part was the karate bunny's with the pink hats.....better known as the Pink Berets.  I really

want to move to Hollywood!

SHE SAID - A story of a bunny who is to take over for his father but wants to follow his dreams of

becoming a famous drummer, takes off to Hollywood and meets up with an uninspired, unmotivated

'hotty' still living with his folks.  This movie was a mix of Alvin and The Chipmunks meets Home Alone meets America's Got Talent.  It is a very thoughtful, fun and 'delicious' movie for all to see.  Who ever thought that you could drool over gun shooting animated chocolate....but I did!  It was scrumptous to watch.  Animation has made it to a whole new level if you feel hungry for chocolate during the show.   If it wasn't for my age, I would aspire to work at the Easter Bunny food plant. 
You have your bad guys too which help make for a good story line.  James Marsden who plays Fred is soft on the eyes as well.  I always enjoy watching him.  A very well done job by all actors when interacting with the bunny.  It's a hard task to act with no one else in the scene and then see the final product.  Good storyline with a good ending.  I think both of us agree that this is the best animated we've seen so far in 2011.  A note to parents whose kids enjoy this movie......make sure that you have these particular jelly beans on hand for their Easter hunt, to make it more memorable. The gold wrapped bunny would be a nice touch as well!
