Rango (2011) 6/10

Starring : Johnny Depp, Isla Fisher, Timothy Olyphant
Director : Gore Verbinski
Running Time : 108 mins

Much-loved pet chameleon Rango (Depp) spends much of his time pretending he is the hero in various action movies of his own imagining, but following a car accident he finds himself in a wild west town called Dirt where he pretends to be a hero and ends up becoming the towns Sheriff. His first course of action : to find some much needed water to replace the towns dwindling source.

I don’t think kids will enjoy this movie – a chameleon doesn’t seem like the most likely choice for the lead in a children’s movie – bit I might be wrong. I personally thought this was okay, but couldn’t really get into what little story there was. It was almost like someone was trying to make an animated version of The Three Amigos, but with just one Amigo!
