Curious George Review

From paper to pixels, mischievous monkey Curious George makes his way to the silver screen in a children’s full-length animated feature film. To preserve the retro spirit of the book series created by Margret and H.A. Rey in 1941, George’s world is rendered with 2-D animation. 

Celebrities lend their voice talents to Curious GeorgeWill Ferrell plays Ted, The Man With the Yellow Hat, Drew Barrymore plays a school teacher and Ted’s love interest and Dick Van Dyke plays a museum curator.  In a banana-split-second, the plot revolves around Ted and George attempting to save the financially struggling museum that Ted works at.

Curious George is a fun little flick that stays true to the classic books and will be a treat for the tots.  After the jump is the music video for Jack Johnson’s single "Upside Down" featured in Curious George, which combines live action shots of Jack within the animated world of the mischievous monkey. Catch Curious George in theaters today!

Awwww George..

Oh that’s cutiie.. my litlle sister love it !!

I love Curious Geaorge! And I love Just Jared!

My son would be so psyched if I won this for him.

Going to see CG again tonight for the 2nd time. George is very, very popular at our place!

Curious George was my favorite when I was little and now he is my sons favorite. I still have my original Knickerbocker stuffed animal Curious George, he has a couple of small holes and is missing a nostril but I can’t bring myself to throw him out.

My kids loved this movie! We have seen it twice this week!

I took my 2 year old grandaughter to see the movie this past Saturday. Before the movie we went to Toys R US and purchased a Gerorge Doll that you can tickle and he laughs. She sat and watched the entire movie on my lap with George. She is too little to sit in the movie chairs, they fold up on her ! We loved the movie and it was just like old times when I would take her mommy to see movies :)

just wanted to say your blog is awesome! love the new layout as well.in terms of curious george, i think the jury’s still out on the movie thing… lotsa people are still freaked out by the fact that he’s tail-less =)

thanks for the video, I can’t believe that the CG soundtrack is the #1 album in the country right now!
