Delgo (2008) |
"
Admirable attempt at independent feature animation is undercut by videogame-quality CGI, cardboard characters and a bludgeoningly allegorical, unimaginative story of tribal conflict and teenagers in love."

Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa (2008) |
"
Sitcom-like sequel to the 2005 movie about clueless New York zoo animals bungling in the jungle, this story about a lion king is no Lion King but a perfectly funny diversion that improves on the original. And the penguins are still psychotic."

Fly Me to the Moon (2008) |
"
G-rated, 3D animated adventure of three plucky young flies who hitch a ride on Apollo 11 plods rather than soars. And maggots with faces aren't cute."
