So you think you know the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Don’t be too sure... One of your favorite fairy tales is turned upside-down and inside-out in what the L.A. Times called "high-energy, imaginative entertainment." With irreverent storytelling, spunk and wit, Hoodwinked delivers a comedy caper for the young, the young at heart and everyone in between.
When the police arrive at Granny’s cottage in the woods to answer a domestic disturbance call, it looks like just another open-and-shut case. But Red, Granny, the Big Bad Wolf and the Woodsman are not your usual suspects, as they have their own dark secrets, wily deceptions and conflicting accounts of the crime. Together, they must put aside their differences and find their own original twist on Happily Ever After in this raucous, genre-busting, animated gem!
Synopsis
Little Red Riding Hood: A classic story, but there's more to every tale than meets the eye. Before you judge a book by its cover, you've got to flip through the pages. For this story, we begin at the end. Furry and feathered cops from the animal world investigate a domestic disturbance at Granny's cottage, involving a girl, a wolf, and an axe. The charges are many: breaking and entering, disturbing the peace, intent to eat, and wielding an axe without a license. Not to mention, this case might be tied to the elusive "Goody Bandit" who has been stealing the recipes of goody shops everywhere.
Ok, I am not going to lie - this is just not the best animated film out there. It did grate on me at times. But it does have its good points - it took a different viewing of the classic red riding hood tale and turned it on its ear. There are some great characters, and great humour, and the evil bunny is fantastic, but in this case, the whole is certainly not greater than the sum of its parts. Good for renting out, perhaps not for purchasing.
Below average animated film has a good idea for a plot, but too many flaws. The animation looks rushed and the physics are all over the place. Has a couple songs thrown in, obviously to stretch this out even longer, and aren't consistent enough, and the film goes 20 minutes longer than it should. An attempt to rival Cars, it fails miserably.
This was a decent Animated film, much like Shrek - very adult and compound with its humour, but still with some unique elements of its own. The police and detective (played by the Frog) try to figure out why they found 4 misc people in a house all feeling threatened. The storylines intertwine interstingly and come to a climax. Unfortunately though, this movie never really gripped you or kept you laughing. Not one worth owning - probably only ever good in theatres.
