Feel Free to 'Meet The Robinsons'

Last night we rented Meet the Robinsons, and it is one of the best movies I've seen in a while. The first half is hysterically funny - completely random comments, occurances and characters keep popping up. Obviuosly the second half has more to do with resolving the plot and imparting the message, and it is a kids movie so the ending isn't a surprise, but it is still enjoyable and totally worth it for the off hand dialogue thrown in. The writiers might have been on drugs, but this is one case where randomness works - it is quirky and funny and it all meshes well rather than just being weird for the sake of being wierd. I think this may be a movie that parents like more than the kids, who may not fully appreciate the wonderfuly bizarre.
