It was cute. Corny. Mostly juvenile but definitely some funny bits for adults.

A mildly enjoyable kids movie with a few laughs. I liked the claymation.

When this movie came out my whole family went to see it. But I was very disappointed with it. I love Aardmen movies like Flushed away and all of the Wallace and Gromit movies but this was just not that good, I'm sorry to say.

This is a hugely clever and very funny movie, supposedly for kids but great for adults. The voice talents are spot-on, and there are so many hilarious lines that one needs to see the movie at least twice to catch them all. Don't miss this fab, wacky gem of a flick. Yarr!

Pirate Captain (to Charles Darwin): "Come on! We didn't devolve from slugs just to sit here drinking our own sweat, now did we!"

Charles Darwin: "I had this theory... I thought that if you took a monkey... gave him a monocle and covered his gigantic, unsightly ass... then he would cease to be a monkey, and become more of a... a 'man-panzee' if you will..."

Crew Member: I thought it might be catching exotic diseases!
