...Jerky animation and shallow voice acting.With today's technology, there is no good reason to have clunky animation and excuse it as "retro". Excuse it as "rip-off". Hasn't anyone heard of morphing? Or was the director simply on morphine?Sounds like the actors phoned in their lackluster voice parts. If I were George Clooney or Bill Murray, I'd have my name removed from the credits. At least if I were Murray, I would. Clooney's contribution was his standard "I'm too beautiful to act" poor performance.
