asdfsddg Watched this last night, wasn't expecting much but to my surprise it catches your attention after sometime with it's great adventures of time travelling and little bumps of comedy. Have complete set of emotional values that every Father and Son should have. A good family time movie, worth your time and also gives you some history lessons that's keep you interested.

Animated Antic Out of all the cartoons that aired on television in the 1960's, the best one by far was probably "Rocky and Bullwinkle". While the animation was cheap (as most shows were back in the day), it's was great featuring some funny laughs and memorable characters that will be remembered for years to come. They were also many other segments during the show with the most famous being one involving a intelligent canine named Mr. Peabody and his boy Sherman who go through many various places in time thanks to Peabody's latest invention, the WABAC. Flash forward fifty years later, and the duo have now appeared for the first time on the big screen thanks to the help through DreamWorks Animation and "Lion King" director Rob Minkoff, and I can happily say that I was satisfied with the results they brought. "Mr. Peabody and Sherman" has the same charm and clever humor that the show had while adding the right amount of heart leading to a very enjoyable movie.For the past years, the gifted Mr. Peabody (Ty Burell) has been tutoring his adopted son Sherman (Max Charles) on history while using a time machine called the WABAC. They have gone through many different places at different times, like the French Revolution or the days of Van Gogh, the list goes on. Having travelled thru time for many years, Sherman has become a very educated student in history which angers a jealous girl named Penny (Ariel Winter) leading to a fight that ends in the principals office. Worried that Sherman might get taken away by an angry Child Protectives Services agent (Allison Janney), Peabody sets out to make peace between the two kids hoping they can reconcile. However, Sherman's only way of impressing the girl is the time machine, which results in her getting lost in Ancient Egypt. After warning Peabody about the incident, Sherman and him go off on a crazy time adventure to try get Penny home.While many other time travel movies have basically outdone flaws that were present in the show ("Back to the Future" is a notable example), the story still feels rather faithful and funny. One notable addition was a new backstory involved with Peabody finding Sherman which I liked better than the cartoon as I thought it lead to the movie having some good heart to it. The story,however, isn't without its flaws. While I heavily enjoyed the bits involving the time travel, the subplot about Sherman being taken away was very unnecessary. It felt very forced into the story and even to the worst part of the movie which, without spoiling, involves one of the characters defending the other.  The animation was pretty good. While it does have some awkward moments involving characters drawn specifically in a 2D format being turned into computer models, I thought the environments created felt faithful. The colors also popped out of the screen which I always love to see in DreamWorks' movies. The characters are also pretty fun. I particularly enjoyed the father-son relationship of Peabody and Sherman. I thought it was handled perfectly which lead to some good emotional moments. The new characters might turn people off though. While I thought Penny was a nice addition and thought she had a good chemistry with Sherman, I did not like the CPS agent. She was a perfect example of a one-dimensional character as the only emotion I got from her was anger. That's it. It was frustrating to see no other emotions coming from her. However, it's really a nitpick."Mr. Peabody and Sherman" was a very fun movie.  I thought that, despite it's problems, it had a fun story, some good animation, and some really funny characters. While children might get confused by the movie at parts, I think that the film will entertain them. I certainly was entertained, and I think that's worth the price of admission.

MikesIDhasbeentaken I think this one went under the radar a little with all the other animated movies that have come out, but this has great jokes, it's educational to everyone, and has jokes for both children and adults thrown in.This is a funny movie for all ages and I would def recommend if you want to watch a movie your children would like but don't want to be bored yourself. I wondered why this movie isn't more highly rated on IMDb, and saw one reviewer calling Mr Peabody a 'narcissistic megalomaniac' hahaha, no... no he isn't, it's a cartoon, and a comedy... but essentially i get it, it's not as good as the cartoon you watched when you were younger... oh and the same reviewer thought that the romans were in the Trojan horse, ahem.

S.R. Hunt I'll be honest, I never watched the "Mr. Peabody & Sherman" cartoon growing up. I mean, I might have, but I don't remember. Anyway, I decided to watch the new movie not to long ago, since I love time travel stories. And... I'm very mixed about this movie. On one hand, I like what (I think) they did with Mr. Peabody. I get this vibe that Peabody being told he can't be a good father because he's a dog is a metaphor for LBGT people being told that they can't be good parents because they're gay. I don't know anyone raised by LBGT parents, but I'm not against it. Also, Peabody is a very interesting character. I like the jokes surrounding each era they travel to. And, Mel Brooks cameo, you can't go wrong with that. But on the other hand, I really really REALLY hate Penny. This b**** just p***** me off. She is just so mean to Sherman, that I wish she had her hand stabbed in Egypt. I hoped they would drop her off in the Jurassic era, I hate her that much. And my other problem is, why doesn't Peabody just home school Sherman? He's pretty much the smartest thing in the world, so why doesn't he just teach Sherman himself? Anyway, I'm very meh about this movie. There are a lot of things I liked, but there are just as many things that I hated. But I will give it this, it is one of the best movies based on a cartoon in recent history. If you like the original cartoon, then you might like this. If you're like me, then you can watch it once and call it good.
