ALPHA AND OMEGA (Theatrical Release USA 2010)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 1.7|5.0 Starsì

Alpha and Omega lacks sufficient character development for Humphrey (voiced by Justin Long), Kate (voiced by Hayden Panettiere), Winston (voiced by Danny Glover), and Tony (voiced by Dennis Hopper) to establish credible and believable personalities that appeal to the heart. Even the very good singing at the end of the film can not pull this film out of the dumpster. Directors Anthony Bell and Ben Gluck fail to see the challenges built into this animated feature before it hit theatrical release.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

No. The movie, unfortunately, fails in presentation. The Nut Job becomes the better choice for both time and money investment.
