If Mr. Peabody & Sherman hit the spot, these will too

Rob Minkoff working the same nerve twice
The difference: Takes it somewhere less cerebral than Mr. Peabody & Sherman does

Common ground in both: friendship and adoption

Cerebral where it counts, witty underneath

Both land play and scale at once

The same preoccupation in both: parents and children
The difference: Made in the 1980s, in a different era of the craft

The same mix in both: warmth, then comfort

Animation built on ideas, twice over
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Witty science fiction, and it commits to that


One thread runs through both: friendship

Both keep coming back to the same thing: dog

Comedy with a pulse of play, in both cases
In the mood for more cerebral?
