I saw it today. It's got a standard plot but the animation is absolutely vivid and beautiful and it has a really good cast (despite Will.i.am and George Lopez).

Jemaine Clement from Flight of the Conchords is absolutely fantastic. He plays the villain absolutely perfectly. And the villain song he has is awesome. It's basically what you would imagine if FotC did the villain song for an animated movie and it's so good. Tracy Morgan was extremely funny too (though it's honestly hard for Tracy Morgan not to be funny.

I recommend it. It's nothing like a How to Train Your Dragon or Toy Story 3, but it doesn't try to be like that. It's just a really fun animated comedy that's super entertaining.
and that's the waaaaaaaaaay the news goes

Saw it. It was charming and enjoyable, but not anything amazing. It did have its funny parts, though. The villain's song WAS amazing, but the other songs were lackluster. And the monkeys/will.i.am's bird character were forced humor, so I didn't like that.

Animation movie is very difficult as compared to the others movies which have the original characters.. No these movies required high budget as compared to the animated movies.
