This seems to be a German phenomenon at the moment: films that look professionally made, but that are outright disasters because of their thorough lack of originality. Germany is the engineering country, after all, so why to expect a funny and inspiring and witty story? Right, and somebody decided it was necessary to make this story into a 3D version so that the expensive equipment pays off. There is not a single funny thing in here, everything is ripped off other films, none in a good way, all in a clumsy, “it worked in Ice Age, we should do that too” way… there is no funny character, there is no witty dialogue, and if you are older than four and hence able to read, you will have no surprises with the plot whatsoever. Boring, uninspired waste of time.
