Rango


Rango
This movie-goers delight may be aimed at kids but will appeal to connoisseurs as well. Our hero is a chameleon, who accidentally lands in the desert and discovers a small town populated by talking animals. Their water has dried up, and no one knows why. Things go in his favour and he finds himself made sheriff, tasked with tackling the local baddies and solving the water crisis. The film abounds with movie references and pays homage to some of the great westerns of the past, most of which will go over the kids' heads.

107 minutes.

Pam Grady quote iconThe entire cast is charming, but especially Depp as the little lizard with big dreams who gets to be the star he's always wanted to be in this fresh and funny movie.

Chicago Sunday Times
Roger Ebert quote iconRango is some kind of a miracle: An animated comedy for smart moviegoers, wonderfully made, great to look at, wickedly satirical, and (gasp!) filmed in glorious 2-D.

eye Weekly
Adam Nayman quote iconA few overly antic action scenes can't dull the buzz of invention: if there's formula in Rango, there's also genuine alchemy.

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconThe first animated film from ILM is also the first memorable motion picture of 2011.

Rolling Stone
Peter Travers quote iconRango is like nothing you've ever seen.

ScreenIt
T. Durgin quote iconRango is one of those movies that it is a feast for the eyes, but offers little emotional pull and plenty of head scratching.

Tomatometer quote iconIt may not be as charming as it thinks it is -- and it certainly isn't for kids -- but Rango is a smart, giddily creative burst of beautifully animated entertainment.
