I just saw it and gave it 3/10.

I don't think it should be up for anything other than Worst Family Movie if that comes back.I mean,it's bad but it fulfills every expectation.Brand is miscast but I wouldn't say he's bad,nor Mardsen.

Aside from uninspired plots,what these movies have in common is doubtful messages.OK,so they both grew up and they fulfill their dreams,but only E.B. made a sacrifice.

You mean unless they bring back Worst Excuse For Family Entertainment? It's hard because the "kiddie movies" released during the first half of the year are forgettable.

Come on! Some adults do enjoy kiddie humor, nothing wrong with that. And a lot of critics (most likely parents) say things like "It doesn't try to be art, it's a kids' movie so lighten up!"

Voice-over in a live-action movie, right? 

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: In Roseanne's case, yes, it was a "live-action movie." In Brand's case, the character he voices is animated, but the film itself combines live action with animation, so I guess it is slightly different...

R.T. gave Hop 20%: "It's impressively animated, but HOP's script is so uninspired that not even James Marsden's frantic mugging can give it any bounce."  

I guess this means he won't be up for Worst Supp. Actor. But he could still be up for Worst Couple with either Russell Brand or Kaley Cuoco. And...well,with these reviews, I don't need to mention every category Hop could be up for, right?  

RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: Referring to a performance as "frantic mugging" is not a favorable review -- So, yes, Marsden could still be a Worst Supporting Actor contender. And Russell Brand's voicing of "E.B." could be only the second voice-over performance ever to be RAZZIE®-nominated. The first was Roseanne Barr as the voices of an obnoxious talking baby in LOOK WHO'S TALKING, TOO (IMDb LINK).

And Roger Rabbit was a mix of live action and 2D animation, while this mixes CGI animals.  In fact, how many movies were there since Princess and the Frog and Ponyo that used 2d animation?

Another thing I noticed about this movie...

The cast features voices and roles from Hank Azaria (of Simpsons fame) and Hugh Laurie (House).  It also features David Hasselhoff and Hugh Hefner, though they have been in crummy films before.  But why would those people provide voices for something that is comparable to the Alvin & the Chipmunks movies?

I hated Russel Brand before because I thought his horrible work when hosting the MTV VMA's was the way he always was.But after watching him in movies,he's kind of funny.And this is a way for kids to like him since they can't see his R-rated stand-up*.But the Easter Bunny?There wasn't a rule that said God can't be black so I had no problem with Morgan Freeman in the ALMIGHTY movies,but I'm sure there's some rule that says the Easter Bunny can't be british.
 
And why is Kaley Cuoco in this?She's a famous and talented TV star.I understand James Marsden.He was in CATS & DOGS 2,and I feel he was surprised when he found out ENCHANTED turned out to be good.
 
As usual in this movies,the biggest stars in Hollywood provide their voices,and B and C-list actors play live-action roles.Are the stars ashamed of something?What's wrong with this movie?Oh,right.
 
Remember all my bitching about who receives certain Razzies?If you'd answered,we would know if Tim Hill is a nominee.You mentioned his 2 previous movies,but you forgot about THE MUPPETS IN SPACE and MAX KEEBLE'S BIG MOVE.But you know what?When he directs he sucks,but he's a good writer(ROCKO'S MODERN LIFE;SPONGEBOB).Why can't he try to do both things?
 
Writers Cinco Paul & Ken Daurio score with animated movies.But with live-action...And all we know about Brian Lynch is that he also wrote the upcoming PUSS IN BOOTS spin-off.
 
*I feel that's also why in this movies there are also cameos from celebrities kids don't know(David Hasselhof and The Blind Boys Of Alabama).
