Condorito: The Movie

While this film had a promising "schlock" beginning that had me in hopes, that soon gave way to lame. By 20 minutes I was bored at the poorly-written script. By 30 minutes I was questioning the sanity of the writers and director. I managed to get through the entire movie, to realize it hadn't brought a single laugh out of me. That's a pretty sad statement for something supposedly a comedy.

This is pure Saturday morning child-food, and even children would likely be bored. Evidently based on a popular (and funny) comic strip (some strips were shown during the credits and for me were the high-point of the film), this flick evinces none of the ingenuity and humor of the comic. The characters are cliche and droll, the story line predictable, the only up-side the cuteness of the animated well-endowed "babes"-- which reliance doesn't give much credit to a child's film.

Disappointing. It may keep a 5-year old entertained... or not.
