[Feek]

I took Mrs. Feek to see this today, I finally decided it was time we got around to seeing it.

I'd not indulged myself in any of the hype, I had absolutely no idea what it was about except there were blue people in it and I'd heard the term Smurfahontas bandied about. I've never seen Pocahontas and I know nothing about the story of that either so it really meant nothing to me except that there were blue people in it.

It was OK, I thought the 3D was nicely done and not in your face just for the sake of it, it was subtle and worked quite well although I did notice a certain jerkyness in some scenes that I found a little offputting. The 3D in the trailers before hand was far less subtle.

I sort of dozed for about ten minutes around the hour point, it was just after matey bloke had gone back to win their trust and integrate himself but after that I was with it to the end. Certain plot points stood out a mile in advance, some things were very obviously going to happen.

I still don't know the Pocahontas story but I've also heard it described as Dances with Smurfs and I'd agree with that.

It was a good way to spend an afternoon, I'm pleased that I've seen it.
