FLUSHED AWAY

It's been a while since we've posted a film review for a kids movie. Not because we haven't seen a few flicks in the last few months. But because we hadn't seen something we all really enjoyed...until now. Flushed Away, is a hilarious new flick that'll have you and your children laughing from the moment it starts. Personally, I always have a soft spot for British humor so I was already pre-disposed to liking it. The film tells the tale of Roddy, a civilized mouse who lives in an upscale London home and is treated as if he were a family pet. When an unexpected guest drops by while the family is out of town, Roddy winds up being flushed down the toilet into a world filled with mice and slugs. Sounds gross, but it's actually really funny. In fact, my favorite part of the film was every time the slugs burst into song. Of course there's a sinister side - an evil frog is after the girl that Roddy depends on to bring him back home and he of course, in James Bond fashion must attempt to save the day. If you haven't seen this film yet, then definitely put it on your list. It's one of the best of the season...except of course for Over the Hedge...which just came out on DVD! Time to add a new entry to your collection! For more fun with Flushed Away, Click Here for games and previews!
