The Emperor's New Groove

We gave The Emporer's New Groove...




Berlinda says:
Hello Rob.
Rob says:
So we meet again Berlinda.
Berlinda says:
Why yes we do.
Rob says:
Well, this will be our second review, I have heard nothing but good things from our audience about our first review.
Berlinda says:
Someone read our other review?
Rob says:
Hahaha, very funny, how could anyone resist my review, I mean, my beautiful voice penetrates the screen of millions across this country and a host of others.
Berlinda says:
Riiight...
Rob says:
I'm glad you agree.
Hey hey, just cuz I get more fanmail than you, you don't have to take it out on me on the air.
Berlinda says:
Anyway, we are here to review "The Emperor's New Groove," a Disney cartoon that I enjoyed more than a little kid would.
Rob says:
The same goes for me too, I was delightfully surprised at how funny and downright enjoyable this Disney flick turned out to be. Several memorable characters, and a little more grown up humor added to the appeal of this picture, it seems as if Disney understands that today's kids are not as young as they used to be.
Berlinda says:
And, this movie has a cool game and neat behind the scenes features.
Rob says:
Very true, but back to the movie, it starred voices such as...
Berlinda says:
Are you bossing me around?
Rob says:
No, why do you say that?
Berlinda says:
David Spade plays the young Emperor Kuzco, John Goodman plays Pacha the villager, Eartha Kitt plays the evil Yzma, and Patrick Warburton plays the hilarious Kronk.
Rob says:
For those of you who dont know who Patrick Warburton, he also played a part in some episodes of Seinfeld as Elaine's on again off again boyfriend Puddy. For me, Kronk literally stole the show, just about every action from this character made me laugh out loud, trully a show stealer.
Berlinda says:
Yeah, he definitly won the Best Supporting Actor Award in Rob and Berlinda's Award Show.
Rob says:
I'm glad that you know to put my name first... that way I don't have to change it later.
Berlinda says:
I will ignore that comment.
Rob says:
So... before I have my head handed to me...
Berlinda can you tell us about the special features which surely were well endowed.
Berlinda says:
Unlike someone I know... Well, like I said before there is a cool game, a nice behind the scenes look at the cast, Sting's music video, a dance for kids to learn, and a few other things.
Rob says:
Wow, I know someone who is going to be sleeping on the couch tonight, and her name starts with a B, and ends in an erlinda. But aside from that you are quite right, it certainly deserves some nice marks in the extras catagory.
Berlinda says:
So, overall I give the movie itself 5 stars because it was hilarious.
Rob says:
Well, true it is hilarious, so in the comedy genre itself, I will give it 4 stars, but in movies a 3 and a half stars. But really, if your looking for a good comedy, this is a superb choice at a four and a half star average.
What did u think about the sound?
Berlinda says:
Well, sound was good, same with picture quality...cartoons are not really amazing in either category.
Rob says:
Well now, thats not always true, its the transfer we are looking at here, and disney did a nice job with the transfer to DVD, but there are definately cartoons that simply blow this one away in visuals, but this isnt a movie you buy for its stunning visuals, its comedy is the seller.
So I will give it 3 stars.
Berlinda says:
So, overall we give Disney's The Emperor's New Groove...
Rob says:
4 stars as a comedy, and for me three and a a quarter when you throw all the movies together in a big heap.
Berlinda says:
So, we hope you enjoyed our review, and we hope you come back again!
Rob says:
So you agree with my final decision?
Berlinda says:
No, I say 4 stars no matter what, and since I am writing this webpage it will be 4 stars.
Rob says:
But... I thought we had co-ownership?
Berlinda says:
I write the pages, you sit there and look cute.
Rob says:
Only if you give me an ice pop.
Berlinda says:
Done and done.
Rob says:
Ok fine, but I'm not gonna like it.
Berlinda says:
I'll give you a fruit pie....
Rob says:
Hmmmm...
This is Rob signing out, have a good night at the movies.
Berlinda says:
Bye!
Rob says:
And you have a good night too Berlinda,... on the couch!
