Hayley and Jeff took me to see the movie Sing the other day. Since Steve had his last day of winter break, we asked him. He refused because he was going to Snot's house, and said we could see it without him. He also said that he might not get to into it. We went instead.
The movie was okay, but not anything special. It was just about a bunch of singing animals. The singing was nice though.
The movie tells the story of six animals, a pig, a mouse, an elephant, a gorilla, a porcupine, and a kola who wants to start a singing contest. He meant for the prize money to be $1,000. But, his assistant typed $100,00 by accident. So now, all the animals want in!
The animals that wanted money the most was Mike the mouse, and Johnny the gorilla. Mike wanted the cash to pay off some bears. Johnny wants to money to pay bail for his father and his gang who get arrested for a heist.
I guess my favorite character was Mike. He's a good crooning, street musician. He is also arrogant, and laughed a couple times when animals got hurt. He was also one of the best singers.
There was also some drama to the other animals. The porcupine's boyfriend finds another girl for the band, with makes the girl porcupine sad. The pig is a mother to a lot of piglets, and works too hard. She gets paired with a pig with a Germen accent. The elephant's grandfather wants her to sing, but she's not sure because of her stage fright.
I guess the movie was kind of cute, but like I said, not anything special. So if you want to jam to over sixty classic songs from recent or past, or want to see some singing animals, this film is harmless. But, you might want to wait to watch it by yourself if you want to sing along. You have to be quiet in the movie theater, if you didn't know already.
