Mr. Peabody & Sherman

Mr. Peabody is a genius and (oh yes) a dog. His brilliance always got into the way of him being adopted. He discovers baby Sherman in an alley and adopts him. Sherman inspires him to invent the WABAC time machine. At school, Sherman is bullied by Penny Peterson teasing him that he's a dog. Sherman invites the Petersons to a dinner. Sherman disobeys Mr. Peabody and takes Penny on the WABAC. Mr. Peabody and Sherman must go back to ancient Egypt to rescue Penny.

This is a good clean children's movie. The jokes are mostly puns delivered by Mr. Peabody and Sherman saying "I don't get it." It does well in the way of most modern animations. I like the light touch and the round smooth faces. It gives it an easy comfortable innocent feel. On top of the well-made animation, there is a real heart. That puts it as one of the better kids' movies. The adoption storyline is really touching and compelling.
