My Thoughts:
This is another one I borrowed from the library. The actor playing Dylan Dog is Brandon Routh who I know as the latest to play the live action Superman. But his buddy also looked very familiar to me. When I checked it turned out that it was the guy that plays the werewolf in the US version of Being Human.

This film is listed as horror and comedy. While I do see this... it is more of a lightheartedness then a laugh out loud type of comedy. The movie itself is pretty good. I can see adding it to my collection eventually. Though I don't think I will be in much of a hurry to do so.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

My Thoughts:

This one I enjoyed a lot! It has a great story that kept my attention with ease. And I can not remember the last animated film that I watched without singing and dancing! This made for a nice change of pace as well. There really wasn't many in the cast list that I can say I recognised in this one, but the characters were a lot of fun to watch. This is one I would definitely recommend.

A lot of great exchanges between Fraser and his father. Wouldn't it have been for that, it would have been a rather average episode. Also this episode introduces Constable Turnbull for the first time.
