Meet the Robinsons (2007)

Irritatingly hyperactive. Overloads on wackiness to the point where it feels like a Friedberg Seltzer movie - dozens of zany characters, genre pastiches, screwball montages, constantly thrown at the viewer in place of story or characterisation. The decision to withhold a bunch of narrative information in service to a big reveal dump an hour in makes the first two thirds of the movie feel even more directionless.
Also, this is pretty damn ugly for a 2007 CG animated movie, and the animation and direction is as spastic as the rest of the film.
Rating: Bad
