G-Force from Disney is a fantastic children's movie meets action flick that has something for everybody. If you saw the previews and didn't think it would be up your ally, then it's time to give it a chance. This is one of those great Disney DVDs that the whole family, yourself included, will enjoy pulling out and playing time and time again.
The movie is actually produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, one of the masterminds behind many of the biggest action and adventure flicks of the last decade. He brought along some of his big name friends to be voice overs in the movie as well. You'll hear Nicolas Cage, Steve Buscemi, Jon Favreau, Penelope Cruz, Sam Rockwell and Tracy Morgan to name a few.
Collectively they voice the ragtag bunch of guinea pigs turned super heroes and spies that are out to save the planet. Your kids will love the silly adventure, and you just might find yourself laughing a bit more, and keeping attention a bit more than you would have thought. G-Force is an instant classic Disney DVD, and you can grab it now for a discount sale price that makes it accessible for all. So take a load off, call over the kids and watch G-Force, one of the best Disney DVDs in quite some time.
G-Force just might be the best Jerry Bruckheimer action film in many a moon. The film is exuberant, and its premise--don't think big for an animated caper film, think small--brilliantly upends the more-bigger-faster trope of American action films… with cute, little, furry guinea pigs. Bruckheimer, the action genius behind the likes of the Pirates of the Caribbean, Con Air, The Rock, Armageddon, and many more, here teams with visual effects maestro Hoyt Yeatman, who writes and directs.
The combo is potent, and the fact that they streamed their blow-'em-up vision through a film about tiny rodents saving the world makes the whole confection a hilarious family-friendly experience as well as a satisfying action adventure. The premise isn't earth-shattering: oddball, unexpected heroes are called on to save the day (Men in Black, Underdog, etc.). But the lowly guinea pig has been long overdue to get its moment in the spotlight. And now the free world knows whom it can really trust. The film mixes the animated heroes with real-life actors, including the sardonic British character actor Bill Nighy, who plays an evil mogul out to take over and/or destroy the world. The U.S. government, it turns out, has been nurturing a special squad for occasions just such as this. It's just that it's been nurturing them in small pens with wood shavings on the floor and running wheels for exercise. Will Arnett, deadpan and spot-on, plays the human agent who has the unenviable task of wrangling the guinea pig G-Force, and is a deft foil for the bad guys as well as for the mini-heroes.
But the true powerhouse acting belongs to those giving voices to the guinea pig agents, including Sam Rockwell, Penélope Cruz, Steve Buscemi, and, as the voice of a domesticated layabout, Jon Favreau. The film's standout, though, is Tracy Morgan, whose Agent Blaster is bellicose, fearless, and as full of malapropisms as Morgan's character on 30 Rock. (In fact, the viewer keeps half-expecting Blaster to turn to Cruz's female agent, Juarez, and yell "Liz Lemon!") G-Force is full of belly laughs for kids, as well as their action-film-fan parents. --A.T. Hurley
