When the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks made over $360 million dollars and its "squeakquel" made over $440 million you had to know that were were doomed to see cute computer animated critters inter-acting with humans for the foreseeable future. Since then we have had Yogi Bear, Marmaduke and now Hop.
Hop tells the story of E.B. a young rabbit destined to become the next Eater Bunny. But E.B. wants to play drums in a rock band so he runs away from Easter Island and lands in Hollywood where he encounters Fred O'Hare and unemployed slacker who has not found his calling in life. You can be guaranteed that after much mayhem both Fred and E.B. will find there life's destiny.
Hop is voiced by Russel Brand and Fred is played amiably by James Mardsen. The film is rifts off the Santa Claus legend to create a back story for the Easter Bunny. Predictable, but amusing this film will become an DVD Easter staple for kids and I can guarantee a sequel within 2 years.
At The Movie House rating **1/2 stars. (Add a half star if you are twelve or under. Detract a star if too many jellybeans makes you sick)
