Turbo (Reynolds) is a snail that dreams of competing as an Indy 500 racer – a dream that seems farfetched until a freak accident imbues Turbo with the abilities of a race car, including super speed! He is captured by snail-racing enthusiast Tito (Pena) who soon discovers just how fast Turbo is, and decides to enter him in the Indy 500 to race against actual cars.
I wasn’t expecting much from this, theorising it was just another overhyped piece of rubbish from Dreamworks who have been pretty hit and miss in recent years, but I actually thought it was pretty entertaining. Granted, none of the voice talents were anything special, and the idea doesn’t feel that original (basically taking the characteristic of something and reversing it has been done before, even as recently as Planes), but the story worked pretty well, and the overall message is a fun and informative one for kids, showing them that they should never give up on their dreams, no matter how farfecthed.
