MIX UP REVIEWS:
Grace (Age 9) - ★★★★1/2
"I liked it because of the comedy and the characters.
My favourite character was Mr Link and my least favourite was the guy with a scar on his head.
I liked the style of animation, it was colourful and detailed.
The story was about an explorer looking for rare creatures."

There's an investigation taking place in Who Framed Roger Rabbit when a detective teams up with a rabbit! For more yeti's and bigfoots look out for them in Monsters, Inc. and A Goofy Movie. There's plenty of odd creatures and funny friendsips in these animated movies recommended here and keep an eye (or an ear) out for Timothy Olphant in Rango and Zach Galifianakis in The Lego Movie.
