FRIDAY FLICK: Gnomeo & Juliet***

ROMEO & JULIET, LOVE STORY OF THE AGES. But if you're not into sad endings, see Gnomeo & Juliet, an animation full of cement heroes, bad guys & forbidden love.


LOVED the creativity:  the ground-eating Terraferminator (Hulk Hogan), a lawnmower on steroids that will make men drool with desire.

LOVED the characters:  the lipsticked frog, the pink flamingo with a Latin accent.

LOVED the casting of voices:  Jason Statham as Tybalt (hot-headed red gnome), Ozzy Osborne as Fawn (yep, the bat-eating, heavy metal Prince of Darkness is in a kid's movie, well, at least his voice is).

LOVED the humor:  "Let's kick some grass."

LOVED the Elton John songs throughout the movie & the whirlygigs at the end.


Hmm, I just remembered this movie was in 3D, but I sure don't recall that. It must have been really subtle; none of that flying-in-your-face stuff.

Written by Walt Disney Pictures, it's just plain fun.

For a little light entertainment, see Gnomeo & Juliet.

May smiles surround you,
