The complaint I've heard by wiredog (2.00 / 0) #5 Mon May 12, 2008 at 12:50:09 PM EST
Is that it is somewhat lacking in plot, characterization, and everything else needed in a movie. Except for the visual effects.

Apparently even the monkeys aren't funny. If you can't get a laugh out of monkeys..

Earth First!

I thought Chim-Chim was funny. by nightflameblue (2.00 / 0) #6 Mon May 12, 2008 at 01:13:54 PM EST
I also heard the complaint that the plot is "confusing."  Mrs. NFB and myself think if you can pay attention for thirty seconds, you can figure out the plot.  And it's a pretty good plot too.  It's basically a kid finding his way to manhood with his dad being a butthole while his mom pulls the family together.  Sure, there's side-story stuff about corporate sponsored racing and all that, but it's basically just a movie about finding your way to adulthood.

I think people got distracted by the colors and decided it can't have a plot.
