Air Bound
SCORE: 82
I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming was sent a reviewable copy
of Air Bound on DVD. This fun little family friendly film is all about
these mice and rats. The main character Gavin wants to go on an
adventure. So he decides to set out and find the ocean. He meets ship
mice, and a young mouse Chester that needs their help. They go on an
adventure to fight off the evil weasels.
There is some mild violence and scary moments in Air Bound. The weasels
look very frightening. The mice refuse to let those bullies control
them. They go to war with the weasels and have a secondary plan. I won't
spoil that for you though. There are moments of sacrifice in Air Bound.
Multiple characters are willing to sacrifice themselves to save others.
Some of the characters die in Air Bound.
The voice acting in Air Bound is stellar. I really enjoyed listening to
the voices in Air Bound. I was shocked that Jon Lovitz was one of the
voice actors. He did an amazing job with his voice for that wicked white
weasel Winston. The music in Air Bound is good and fits the mood of the
film. The animation is good in Air Bound. I love some of the great
backgrounds in this movie.
A lot of Air Bound felt like a video game to me. What do I mean by that?
Certain mice characters like Ace remind me of characters in modern day
role playing games. The same goes for the Owen and Grayson. Their
mannerisms, voices, and attitudes made me think of characters in a
variety of role playing video games. Which is another reason Air Bound
is so comfortable for me.
Air Bound teaches families a couple of lessons. The first is to stand up
against bullies. The second is to go out and see the world. There is so
much to see out there. I have traveled to a variety of different
counties in my life. I have seen some cool and interesting things. So I
can understand the second lesson. I also appreciate the first.
Especially with the forces we fight in this day and age.
